[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is hands down my favorite tape out of dozens that I have used over the years. The large display makes reading the measurements easier and quicker. The quality is great as with all Stanley tools I have owned and used. Highly recommended.

Once the end hook got bent, have not gotten it bent back to accuracy. Really don’t think it should’ve bent that easy, but can not wrap my head around getting it bent back correctly. So it’s been setting in a drawer, unused, for about 2months after purchase.

The Stanley FATMAX 25-foot tape measure is hands down the best tape I’ve ever owned. From the first time I clipped it on my belt, I could tell it was built tough and made for real work. The standout feature is the incredible standout. I can extend it out impressively far without it collapsing, which makes solo measuring jobs so much easier. Whether I’m framing, measuring materials, or doing quick layout work, it stays rigid and reliable. The blade is wide, easy to read, and the markings are clear even in low light. The durability is next level — this thing can take drops, rough handling, and everyday jobsite abuse without missing a beat. The case feels solid, the rubber overmold gives it great grip, and the belt clip is strong and secure. The lock mechanism is smooth and holds tight, and the recoil is strong without being wild or dangerous. It just feels like a professional-grade tool that’s built to last. If you need a dependable, heavy-duty tape measure that performs every single time, the Stanley FATMAX 25’ is absolutely worth it. Five stars all day

Can't even count how many I have owned by now! My go to tape measure. Fits well in the hand, easy to read, fit the toolbelt pouch perfect. Put them through the ringer and they keep on going! Would be 5 star if the line thickness was more consistent tape to tape and the dreaded twist was fixed. Extend a twisty to far and it rolls over and make long distance reaches a pain! Other than that perfect tape!
