Review: A £2.95 "Stop-Gap" that’s staying in my toolkit - The Surprise: Budget Price, Trade Quality I bought this as a quick, cheap stop-gap after my old tape measure finally gave up the ghost. At just £2.95, I was fully expecting a flimsy, "disposable" tool that I’d replace with a premium model within weeks. I couldn't have been more wrong. ​Build & Durability Despite the price, this does not feel cheap at all. It has a sturdy, durable feel and a robust casing that seems like it can handle the drops and knocks of a renovation project. The blade itself is 25mm wide and nylon-coated, which gives it a much better "standout" than I expected for under £3. ​The Standout Feature: The Side Button The addition of the side button is a game-changer. It’s a small detail, but it makes taking one-handed measurements significantly easier when you're trying to hold multiple things at once—a constant struggle when working solo on an old house. ​Verdict I was ready to spend much more on a replacement, but I’ll be keeping this until it eventually gives up on me. It’s effective, reliable, and punchy. If you’re looking for a dependable workhorse without the "big brand" price tag, this is it.
Review: Great quality and handy to have spares around the house - I’ve bought several tape measures because they always seem to disappear in our house like socks & you can never find one when you need it. This one is great quality, sturdy & very reasonably priced. It’s really handy to have a few spare around the house.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality and handy to have spares around the house
*by R***H on 25 January 2026*

I’ve bought several tape measures because they always seem to disappear in our house like socks & you can never find one when you need it. This one is great quality, sturdy & very reasonably priced. It’s really handy to have a few spare around the house.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rugged, Reliable — But Wish It Came with Inches Too!
*by E***A on 24 July 2025*

I’ve been using this tape measure for a few DIY projects, and I’m impressed with its build quality. The nylon-coated, 25 mm-wide blade feels tough, the rubberised case offers a comfortable grip, and the true-zero end hook provides accurate measurements every time. The push-button lock works smoothly, and the belt clip keeps it close at hand on the job. The only thing that frustrates me is that it’s metric only—no imperial markings—so I constantly have to convert centimeters into inches. In a mixed-measurement household, that’s a bit inconvenient.
