STANLEY FATMAX Tape Measure, 25-Foot (33-725)

Seriously I have never had a problem with anything from Stanley. Good quality,well made for the price. This tape is sturdy and has less bendability due to its width. So it holds up literally when measuring alone. Thats a keeper. Strong sprind action for retraction,with no hesitation. A good tape for sure.

I don't know what they were thinking taking this from thier flagship tape. Its still the best regular tape measure made. SMALL hooks, NO magnets, tape measures peaked at this model right here, unless you use those things specifically for your job.This was, is, and most likely will be, the best overall general purpose. They used to have a warrantee, well that didn't work out so well and they should have known better. Wore out? Go to lowes, they don't care.Durable, NOT so bendy (the standout is alot better due to lack of weight on the end).Better than a homeowner needs, unless he's building a deck or remodeling. Its 40% off right now. Thats pretty good, this is a good price. Its a 20$ tape for sure.

Attention, tool lovers and DIY disasters alike: the Stanley Fat Max 30-Foot Tape Measure is here to turn your home improvement dreams into reality—and measure your failures with incredible precision!When I first held the Fat Max, I felt a surge of power—like Thor grasping his hammer, only this tool won’t summon lightning (hopefully). This isn’t just a tape measure; it’s a beacon of hope for those of us who can’t eyeball a straight line to save our lives. Its tape is so sturdy it can double as a makeshift leash for when my dog decides he’s the neighborhood escape artist.With a standout of a whopping 11 feet, I can measure my living room without the help of my lazy brother-in-law. The tape measure clicks like a boss every time I extend it, which is oddly satisfying. And the rubber casing? I dropped it from my roof, and it bounced back with the enthusiasm of a toddler on a sugar rush—not a scratch on it.I've measured everything from the size of my new coffee table to the slowly increasing distance between my fridge and couch. Spoiler alert: they're getting further apart, and so is my relationship with exercise.If you're looking for a tape measure that can endure the wilds of suburbia and the chaos of construction, look no further. The Fat Max doesn't just measure spaces; it expands them—with possibility, precision, and a bit of humor. Five stars for making me feel like the ruler of my domain (literally).

Got this as a house warming gift to someone’s first apartment. THEY LOVED IT! how else are you going to measure everything you need like the space for you future couch, the side table, and even if your entry way can fit a narrow table!Only wish it had CM on one side.The quality is great! I have a cheaper one and when you stretch it out even a couple feet it starts to bend but not this Fat cat!

IT is great and works well

I'm a cabinetmaker and I've bought several of the tapes. I like the ease of reading. The end is prone to slipping off when measuring which drives me crazy. I'll probably keep buying them as they no longer make my favorite tape.

Great heavy duty tape measureSmooth operation both ways, pulling out and retracting.Tighten your belt up if you use the belt clip. It's heavy.

A very well made tape measure. It has numbers that are very easy to see. Very sturdy. Would highly recommend this tape measure.
