Komelon 12' Self Lock Hi-Vis Speedmark Tape Measure

It's a great value, and the self-locking tape is key to one-handed usage. I frequently need to measure the height of a door or wall, and one hand keeps the end of the tape in place while my other hand pulls out more tape. If the tape measure is not self-locking, I try to use the thumb lock or my knee to keep the tape from retracting. Self-locking solves the problem and then a push of the button retracts the tape at a moderate speed, not lightning fast, whipping the tape all around. Plus a nice bonus feature. The tape is marked on both sides. This makes measuring inside measurements where you have to hook the end of the tape on an inside edge and can only see the backside of the tape much easier to read.

It works great easiest one I've ever owned to operate with the return numbers were extremely easy to read highly recommend would buy again if I ever needed to

Better than Milwaukee or dewalt . This is my favorite tape measure . Now i have 2 . A 12ft , 16ft, next a 25ft. The self locking mechanism is awesome and holds strong . I work in irrigation where a tape measure is always needed

i use this for warhammer 40k and it is ideal for that. the tape is very easy to read and i like the fact that it retracts when you push the button. strangely it does not have metric, only imperial, measurements

Excellent tape because the blade lock is perfectly designed.

Favorite tape measure for the price

This is a great tape measure. The second one I own by this company. I got tired of having to go out to the garage every time I needed a tape measure in the house, so I bought the exact same tape measure for INSIDE the house. Problem solved.

These tapes are easy to read an never fail, highly recommended
