Review: Five Stars - Good value Review: Impossible to read - Some idiot and his boss decided that the markings on tape measure that have been used for several decades must be too confusing so they decided to mark every 1/8th inch on the entire tape. On top of being stupid, they then made all of the lines the same length. Am I supposed to count 27 tick marks to get an accurate measurement. Why would anybody think this was a good idea. Every time I get stuck using this thing, I end up swearing for the next 5 minutes because I wasted my money. Oh, let's not go into the fact that it can barely extend 5' before snapping. ## Features - Nylon coating - Chrome case - Heavy duty blade - Size 16 feet - Master Mechanic ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00CAO5LSK | | Blade Length | 16 feet | | Brand | danaher tool ltd | | Brand Name | danaher tool ltd | | Case Material | Nylon | | Case Material Type | Nylon | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 2.6 out of 5 stars 2 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00052088876541 | | Item Weight | 0.27 g | | Manufacturer | TV Non-Branded Items | | Model | 162077 | | Part Number | 162077 | | UPC | 052088876541 | ## Product Details - **Color:** Black - **Brand:** Apex Tool Group - **Item Weight:** 0.01 Ounces - **Case Material:** Nylon - **Manufacturer:** TV Non-Branded Items ## Images ![162077 Master Mechanic, 16 -Feet, Tape Measure - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716a2sXJK3L.jpg) ![162077 Master Mechanic, 16 -Feet, Tape Measure - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71v7Lf4p-DL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by D***S on November 10, 2015* Good value ### ⭐ Impossible to read *by J***H on August 12, 2018* Some idiot and his boss decided that the markings on tape measure that have been used for several decades must be too confusing so they decided to mark every 1/8th inch on the entire tape.
