- Bulky and useless
- This tape measure is absolutely useless, it is way to big and just a foolish novelty, not a true tool. Buy a simple tape measure it will be a lot less frustrating.

- Good Gadget good tool
- This seems to work as advertised. Push the top button forward and the tape goes out. It has enough power to fully extend the 25' tape and when you're finished, it will retract it for you just as easy. It is big, bulky and heavy, but that is more than made up for the times when I'm trying to measure something and don't have anyone to hold the other end. I've used it up walls and across floors. I usually use a 60" steel ruler to measure across sheet goods, but to measure length, this works well. You extend the tape as needed and the weight keeps it in place to mark off the measurement.

- Nice Gimmick for once in a while home owner use........
- [...]
This is a nice gimmick but not for serious use. I can't see any serious contractor lugging this thing around LOL. I have fairly big hands and this thing is still bulky and clumsy. My wife got this for me for an xmas present and I don't have the heart to tell her it was a waste of money.
If it was half the size it is then it would be easier to use/carry with you and then it might be worth it but not as is. - 2006-03-15, 4 of 4 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Better door stop
- Biggest piece of juck on the market. It's heavy, the batteries go out fast and it's big. No one in the trades would use this on the job. Got mine as a gift and gave it to my wife for her little jobs around the house. Buy a real tape you will not be happy with this one.

- Black & Decker ATM100 25' Auto Tape Measure
- The tape is too flimsy for distances over 10'.
It twists as it goes 10+ feet. - 2006-02-18, 8 of 8 people found this review helpful, Rated:
