I purchased because of the reputation of Stanley tools, also being made in the USA. I like that they`re one of the few brands out there that still incorporate the increments on either side of the tape. Don`t need those large markings that indicate in written fractions what they are. This one also gives you increments down to 1/16th of an inch, both sides as well. One thing I didn`t like is that when I went to lock it, had to use both thumbs and push very hard for it to fully engage into the lock mode. I had then found an article of review`s on this tape measure and that this is normal when it`s new and over time and use, will become easier to push and lock using just one thumb.

for someone needing a longer than average tape measure, this will get the job done, however the tape tends to curl at lengths more than a few feet, making it difficult to take longer measurements.

Stanly Fatmax is the tape I use all the time. -It is stiff with a 11' standout extention before flapping down -Coated with Mylar/Blade Armor to increase protection -Retracts Nicely -30' is a nice compromise for a 35' and works as a good all around tape measure -Hooks on both sidews -Good locking mechanism -Belt clip is solid -Survives drops -Wide tape makes it easier to read the numbers The only complaints I would have are: -There are no scales on the backside -The new design of the black part is slipperier than the original. While it may be more durable and will prevent peeling, it is just slick for me since I sweat a lot and have clamy hands.

The new Stanley FatMax tape measures are definitely not as good as they used to be. The blade is a lot thinner and flimsier and doesn't even get close to the 14 foot stand out that the packaging implies.

Just what I needed. It has a wider tape so it doesn't bend when I'm trying to measure something in any length. Stanley makes good tools and I didn't have any hesitation when I saw the brand.
