SINGER 00258 Extra Long Vinyl Tape Measure, 96-Inch

wonderfully large readable numbers. inches on one side, centimeters on other. enough weight that it stays laying flat where placed. for person who likes to run around with it draped around neck, perfect practical maximum length for average height woman. 5/8 wide is substantive enough so it doesnt string/stretch out for measuring things like waist. also comes in pack of 3 elsewhere on amazon

One of the other reviews stated that the band in the picture is a metal clip to keep the tape neatly folded. It is not a clip. It is a shiny piece of heavy paper. It looks nice, but it is meant to be discarded. The tape doesnt seem like cloth but it is as flexible as you would expect a cloth tape to be. It isnt stiff like cheaper tapes. It has inches printed on one side, centimeters printed on the other. The fact that it measures up to 96 inches rather than 60 is great considering much of the obese population of the US is pushing a 60 inch waistline now. My own is 64 inches, so the old standard of 60 just doesnt work anymore. I am losing weight and lately have been interested in tracking my progress. Before long I should be able to use a 60 inch tape, but it is nice to have one that will let me start where I am now, not where I would like to be in the future. When I am smaller, the great news is this tape will still work! Having centimeters is a benefit, since many things are more accurately sized in centimeters.

Exactly what I needed to take measurements when I buy clothes online. Great price also.

I loved this tape it is nice to have the extra lenght as well.. I also see that it says that is fiber glass instead of Vinyl when you get the package.. but I have not had a problem with it.. I also accidently sniped in to the tape with my sissoirs when I was cutting tulle but it didnt tear and has not ripped any further then the tiny snip I made.. SO I think that it has done its job and will be pay for another one if needed in the future..

Unlike what other reviewers has said about the first incb being cut off, mine is not. Works well, came fast, and easy to read and use.

I love this wallet. Lots of room for all your cards and everything is easy to pull out. There is even a zipper for change. This just met all my requirements. I was willing to buy an expensive wallet but this just works so well for me. I highly recommend it.

The first time I had a tape measure was in Junior High School home economics class :) But, I wanted one to keep tabs on my waist and hips. Theres just no way of really knowing your exact dimensions without using a cloth/vinyl tape measure. And its important, especially your waist size which I guess the specialist feel is a sign of having health issues if your mid section is over a certain measurement. Im glad I purchased it, and Im sure Ill get other uses out of it too.

Very convenient

loved it
