Better than most [Posted on 2006-06-01]
You will find most 16' tape measures on the market are basically toys. I have found only two that are made to almost the same standard as the more popular twenty-five footers. The Fast Cap is the better of the two. As a professional I will go through about four of these a year. Cheap enough, but I would rather pay more for higher quality, which I just can't find. My rating for this product is in comparison to other sixteen footers.

Nice Tape [Posted on 2007-01-31]
These tapes, like the other Fast Cap tapes offer a lot of nice features but their quailty control stinks. Despite that, I still keep buying them. The durability of this as with most tools is a result of how they are used. I've not had any blade breakage issues, but the clips do tend to wear out and break off. Not a big deal if you keep it in your pouch. The pencil sharpener is a great feature as is the write on pad. I use the flat tape quite a bit and the lefty/righty is one of my favorites. I rarely need a jumbo 30' tape with a 10' standout, (that's what lasers were made for) so this 16 footer works well for me and fits in my pouch, and hand nicely. I have found some of them to be 1/16th off, but I can work with that. In fact if you compare a Stanley to a Lufkin to a Starrett to a Berger etc, none will match up exactly to each other. All in all, a nice tape at a good price.

Nice feel but not good for inside measures [Posted on 2007-07-18]
Since the clip on the end does not slide, you end up about a 16" off when you measure between to objects. The numbers are large and easy to read. You don't get any symbols blocking the tick marks.

Adequate [Posted on 2007-11-01]
Tape measure has worked with out breaking and is easy to read. The pencil sharpener is difficult to use and is not a reason to buy this tape measure.

Good and Useful  [Posted on 2008-04-20]
it`s really handy ,and that writing pad is really cool ,now i can write my measurements down and have it ready when i need it .But tape is 1/16 off ,which sometimes makes differences .On the other hand I`ve checked rest of the measuring tapes on the market for accuracy and discovered that almost all of them are 1/16 or more off,basically considering all of that ,i`ll recommend this product.
