Want a great tape! [Posted on 2000-07-29] This is it, if you work with a tape measure every day, this is the tape, its accurate and reliable. I have been working with one for the past 12 years.
Tape measure not as good as the old one [Posted on 2007-03-14] I used my last Keson 100' tape almost daily for 18 years. As an appraiser, I would measure 2-3 homes a day. That's a lot of use before the last one wore out. I was really happy to see that Keson is still making the same tape measure.
My original review was rated excellent which I cannot change. My updated review would be one star...lousy.
This is an edit done on 10/09/07. Unfortunately, the new tape did not meet the quality of the old tape. The vinyl strap on the side of the housing broke after two weeks on the new one. Then, about 2 weeks ago, the metal pin that guides the tape in and out of the housing broke. Now, as I reel the tape in or pull it out, the so called strong fiberglass reinforced tape is shredding in 12" to 18" strips off the edge of the tape.
Too bad they can't make 'em like they used to as this new version of their old tape is no good.
