Negative Positive
Title: Expected more from Milwaukee
Review: Very disappointed with this tape measure. The scale on the tape is inches/ feet on one side, and metric on the other. While it may seem a simple matter of moving the tape above or below the mark to measure in your preferred scale, it becomes a pain in practice; it would be far easier if both sides of the tape were in inches. The stop button on the tape is also not ergonomically placed. It is too high, causing me to juggle the tape a bit to get at it. The magnetic tip seems a good idea, but it is uncanny how many unwanted places it will attach itself to. It can be useful, but I found it annoying overall. I used a Big Johnson tape measure previously, which I managed to break, and it was miles ahead of this item both in the clarity of the scale on it, and the stop button. I would buy another Johnson tape measure but oddly, Amazon has dropped them from their availability list.
Is the review positive or negative?
