Title: you get what you pay for
Review: Do not buy this tape. Spend the extra couple bucks and get a real tape measure. 1.) the entire reel is made of extremely cheap plastic that makes you afraid to do anything to it for fear of it falling apart before you can use it. 2.) If you are only wanting to use this for U.S. standard measuring (feet and inches), then you will be okay but on the metric side of the tape it doesn't even start at zero! It starts at -.4 meters. 3.) Don't plan on measuring anything accurately because of the plastic tape. There is so much stretch that it is impossible to know how far you are actually measuring from point to point. (and no i'm not talking about a minor variation that is found even in metal tapes) more like a couple feet of variance after only 30-40 feet of tape extended. Find a good quality metal tape and spend a few extra bucks... it is worth it.
