STANLEY XTHT0-33501 FATMAX Autolock Tape, 8m Metric Only, Yellow/Black

Greate measure tape!

I purchased this tape measure to use with a set of plans that were drawn with metric dimensions. Other than a slight slipping of the lock mechanism it is very accurate and easy to read.

Only dislike is I wish you could lock it in place but I knew that when buying

High quality nice professional tape

It was sturdy

I concur with what several other reviewers have said. The re-wind mechanism is not very good - anything past a couple of meters & it just doesn't work. The lock mechanism is weak. It kinda works sometimes.I don't know what you call it but the marking that shows the depth of the tape itself used for measuring into corners being in inches when this is a metric tape is just not helpful at all - it shows me a lack of caring about producing a quality product.The little add-on end things are totally useless. They don't stow away the way that it shows - they fall out almost immediately & even when installed on the tape, they fall off very easily. Huge fail there.I bought a shorter & much cheaper tape at the same time & I find myself using it much more than this one.Is it a really bad product - no, not really. Is it a really good product - no, not at all. Is it worth what they want for it - no, not at all. Would I buy it again - no, I would not.Overall - I'm kinda disappointed with it.

This tape is a failure - impossible to take an accurate inside measure. The tape is marked in metric but the case is marked imperial... I went to take an inside measurement of a window and looked at the case to add the case's length and what do you know? I had to add "3-inches" to 165 cm!Skip purchasing this model unless you want to practice linear conversions.
