5Excellent 1" measuring tapeJul 08, 2007
By Victor H. Agresti "remodeling-guy"
Stanley 33-430 Powerlock 30-Foot by 1-Inch Measuring Tape

Pros:

- Based on the several of these I've used frequently for over 25 years, these high quality tapes have a long life.

- Locking lever works well with little effort, and the tape doesn't slip once locked.

- Spring assisted tape return is just right - neither too fast or too slow.

- Easy to read numbers and lines (to 1/16"), with stud markers every 16". There are no metric markings.

- Belt hook slips onto my belt reliably.

- Accuracy between tapes is perfect. There are no problems in measuring something with one Stanley tape and marking the cut with a different Stanley tape.

- Most tape holsters I've seen appear to be designed to hold the 25' or 30' Stanley measure.

- One inch wide tapes such as this Stanley are a good compromise between unsupported tape standout and tape curvature affecting an accurate reading. E.g., wider tapes like the Fat Max have longer standout, but you really need to push that tape edge down to make a reading.

- Even though a section of one of my Stanley tapes gets wet occasionally, I've never had one rust.

- At this price, it's a bargain.

Cons:

- Two improvements could be made: modify the end-of-tape hook to include a top hook, and the belt hook should "lock" onto your belt so it won't slip off so easily.

Summary:

If you need a 30' tape measure, and DON'T require the longest possible tape standout (as featured with the Fat Max style), this Stanley is a good choice.

5Stop borrowing your dad'sAug 03, 2003
By xiuh
and just buy one already. I got sick of running to my parents' garage or my landlord's shed to fetch a tape rule for any job a yard stick couldn't handle.

This was the best buy for quality and price. I am quite destructive with tools, and yet, have not managed to damage this one so far (1 yr of frequent use). The tape is also very easy to use -- just this weekend I was measuring my apartment rooms by myself and marveled at how manageable the tape is, even when controlled by one person from across the room. The cheaper brands I've owned have been far too flimsy to do so at all.

4Guess I've Just Plain Grown Used to Stanley Tape MeasuresApr 21, 2002
By Michael J. Connor
I really don't consider myself an old time construction man yet... But I have been using Stanley 30' Tapes for 26 years now. Nothin else feels right. Even when Stanley came up with bigger and better, the Powerlock 30' is what I buy and will continue to buy, for a good piece of time to come. The only reason I gave this tool just 4 Stars is that I can beat tools up pretty bad and they just CAN'T last forever. Stanley will give ya a good run for your money though.

4A good basic tool!Mar 08, 2007
By Millie Mcclave "M.M."
There are lots of others out there with more sophisticated features and that extend out further before the bend but this tool have been around for a long time and will continue to be. It's a good basic tool to have and the price is reasonable.

1Not as describedJan 24, 2012
By Jim the Toolman
The item description said it had a metal die cast case. What I received was a plastic crome coated case. I am a big fan of the old original die cast metal because they were almost indistructable and I would not have ordered this item if they had correctly described it! I feel like I've been misled.
