5 out of 5 stars Perfect for you Pocket   November 28, 2007
This tape is perfect for your pocket or when doing woodworking projects. The trend to huge tape measures leaves me boggled. If I'm not building an aircraft carrier, why do I need a tape that extends across the deck of one?


5 out of 5 stars Great for Gaming!   July 20, 2007
I spent a LONG time looking for a good tape measure to use for Tabletop games using the Imperial system.

This is the one I chose, and am glad I did so! A very robust little unit, it has a nice weight in the hand and the metal makes it very solid. The tape itself is very readable, although it is ONLY in Imperial, no Metric. It is good in that it counts up in inches even over a foot, which a lot of the older Stanleys dont.

Highly recommended!



5 out of 5 stars Stanley 33-212 12' Powerlock Tape Rule   January 5, 2007
Good product that is getting hard to find locally. Fast shipping. Thank you.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect for around-the-house tasks   July 15, 2000
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

As something I use for home tasks and occasionally tote to a furniture store, I've never given much thought to tape measures. Mostly I've used freebies that came as a promotional item. Typically these had 1/4" blades, difficult to read markings and no locking mechanism.

On a whim one day I bought this 12' measure with a 3/4" blade, and the resulting improvement is tremendous. The wider blade is easier to extend for longer distances without it bending, and the markings are substantially easier to read. The lock is very useful for situations in which you can't apply both hands simultaneously. (I'm sure all of this is obvious to anyone who regularly uses tape measures, but to those who've just made do with whatever happened to be in the tool drawer, it's the sort of thing you wouldn't notice until you experienced the improvements.)

The Stanley is well crafted, with excellent tension for blade recall and a well-positioned locking switch. The removable belt-clip makes it especially easy to tote around.

Take one with you the next time you visit Ikea and see how many people ask to borrow it!
