Ideal Tape Measure [Posted on 2008-07-04]

It extends out to just over 120 inches (10 ft.) The markings are in inches with every 12th inch marked in red at the top of the tape. It has hashmarks at 1/4 in., 1/8 in., and 1/16th in. like other normal tape measures.

It has hashmarks and numbers down the bottom of the tape for centimeters.

It has a belt clip and part of the outside casing is rubber so it doesn't slip out of your hands. The outside construction is a hard, yet lighteweight, plastic.

The best feature is that after you extend the tape measure, it holds its place automatically. So when you pull out the tape it stays pulled out without having to hold the one end of it or pushing any buttons to lock it into place. You just keep pulling more and more untill the right amount is available, then measure. The bottom of the tape measure is a lever-button that you press to retract the tape back in. It makes it very easy to use by yourself.

Would highly recommend to apartment dwellers. It's small enough and gives us just what we need. Not really recommended for commercial or large home project use.
