Review: Amazing little tape measure 👍 - Bought this for measuring paracord. Amazing quality and a great size will fit into pockets easily without being overly bulky. The tape tention and retractability are very good. Really impressed for the price. Definitely great value for money.
Review: Does exactly what it should – and does it well! - Honestly, wasn’t expecting to be so impressed by a tape measure, but the STANLEY 0-30-686 really is a cracking bit of kit. It’s small enough to chuck in your pocket or drawer, but still feels solid and well-made. The measurements are really clear and easy to read, and the tape doesn’t do that annoying floppiness some cheaper ones do. It snaps back smoothly and the lock holds it in place properly when you need it to. Great for little jobs around the house – measuring up furniture, shelves, whatever you’ve got going on. Just a proper no-nonsense tool that does what it says on the tin. Would definitely buy again if I ever lose it (which I probably will!).
