I've been needing a new keychain tape measure for quite a while. The numbers were peeling off of my old, cheap one. Most of the truly keychain sized tapes are either cheaply made, or they only have one set of units, US or metric.This tape appears to be well made, and durable. I love that it's double sided. Sometimes, you need to wrap the tape around something, and take a measurement. That'll be so much easier, now. The printing is sharp, and easy to read. I haven't used it enough to be able to tell for certain, but it appears that the paint on the tape is of high enough quality that I shouldn't have to worry about the printing wearing off for quite some time.I like the transparent case. It's fun, and if my tape starts having problems, down the road, I might be able to see the issue without opening the case.The one thing I'm not thrilled about is the sliding lock. It takes a lot of force to slide it. Maybe that's just because it's new, and it's not quite broken in yet. But still, it makes a perfect pocket tape measure just a great one. (A tiny smidge of mineral oil applied to the slide lock channel helps. Just don't get any on the tape.)I wouldn't call this a keychain tape measure. It's just a little too big. I'd call it a pocket tape measure... And yet, I'm so fond of this thing that it's earned a place on my keychain.

This tape measure is smaller than expected, but that can actually be a good thing if you just need it for quick, simple tasks. Its compact size makes it super portable, and it weighs almost nothing, great for keeping in a bag or pocket.For the price, it’s an excellent deal. It’s perfect as a backup or for light use, and it does the job well enough without taking up space. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an affordable and practical tool for occasional use!

Doesn’t feel cheap despite the great price! Perfectly readable, easy to retract, durable enough with the rubber siding to withstand long work days, not too heavy!The only negative thing I would say is that the locking mechanism can be difficult to activate especially when using one hand (as the other one is spooling the tape)

These are great little tapes..Markings on both sides, and mm and imperial.Great for the desk.Wait for a sale, seems they are on and off sale very commonly.When ever I'm buying other things on amazon, I check the price, if on sale, buy another 2 to sprinkle around my offices and shops.Sort like grabbing that last inexpensive thing at the check out line.I don't know how long they last, only had them a few months.But for the sale price, I don't care..One in my truck, one in my jeep.One at every bench.for a few bux.. damn. Like ophra ,,,, everyone gets one.

Dollar store quality tape, with strong off-gasing and flimsy operation. Has only inches - no metric scale. I paid $2.50 with a digital coupon, and even that's too expensive for this. You can see the tiny size on the attached images.

WORKS GREAT. HANDY.

I bought this tape specifically because the photos showed incremental markings ( 1/8 1/4 3/8 etc ) were on the far edge of the tape as I looked down at it. My current tapes have the incremental markings on the near edge. For me that makes it harder to line up the measurement.I have been able to work with the current tape but I decided to look for a tape with the markings on the far edge to make my work easier. The photos clearly show the incremental markings on the far edge.Then, in addition, the photos clearly show SAE markings on one edge and metric on the other. I thought that would be useful. But the tape has SAE on both edges.I am completely unhappy with this tape.I am going to return this. It is not much money but I don’t want to support a company that puts false information in their product description.
