Bosch Professional 5 m tape measure (one-handed operation, belt clip, magnetic hook, two stop buttons, 27 mm nylon steel tape) – Amazon exclusive

Tape doesn't buckle on distance measuring. Easy to use.

The item is great. Value for money. Magnetic tape. Useful

Good quality

This is my second time buying this tape. I use it a lot at home, it's rugged, heavy, measurement scale in mm/cm on both sides. Note it's metric only, no imperial scale. Particularly useful features: the squeeze lock on the bottom, so it doesn't roll back in if you let go of the tape to feed more out, the main lock is solid too and there are magnets on the end of the tape so it can be used alone if you have some magnetic you can attach it to. So why am I buying a new one if it's so great? Well, I seem to have forgotten where I left it last and two weeks later still haven't found it. I hope it turns up so I'll have two, but for now, re buying the same tape is a no brainer.

If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. You can do both with the Bosch 5m tape. The metric scale on each edge and on both sides mean you can view it from any angle including working in confined spaces or up a ladder. It exudes quality in every detail expected of German engineering. Tension spring allows you to retract the tape but the mechanism is not too strong nor too weak so just right. The stop end is large and magnetic enabling you to grip easily the point of measurement. Ergonomic design just happens to be one of many features that make the Bosch 5m tape a pleasure to use.

A really nice tape measure, feels very solid and robust and I'm not gonna lie, that nylon coating on the tape is probably the nicest coating I've felt on tape measure since I begin to work in trade. I hope in next version Bosch will add an autolock feature to make it even better

This is a first impressions review, so I will update if it falls to pieces in a week (unlikely). My FatMax has given me solid service for many years so I'm not going to start bashing Stanley. There are some key differences in the design of the Bosch tape however that are quite a big deal for me. Firstly, many of my measurements taken with the tape are quick double-checks although I do use a tape for precise marking of wood for projects. Having a manual brake button on the underside is going to be a lovely way to hold the tape open temporarily without risking slicing my fingers on the edge of the metal (has happened). Secondly, having graduations on the underside is a MAJOR advantage. Why on earth have I put up without this for so long? I can't believe every tape doesn't have this. Thirdly, goodbye stupid, ridiculous, useless, insane Imperial scale. Really, inches are the dumbest measuring system ever. Good riddance. Now I have metric on all sides - what a relief. Overall I am delighted with this, plus the _really_ smooth motion of the tape in and out. And by the way, in case anyone is wondering, the play in the metal piece at the end is deliberate; IT IS NOT A FLAW. This is necessary to take account of using the tape to measure internal and external dimensions. I was going to annotate some photos against a ruler to explain then decided that - frankly - if anyone can't work it out for themselves then they probably shouldn't be using anything sharp anyway. All in all am delighted by this first impression and looking forward to using it in practice this week.

I own a lot of Bosch tools, and most of them were mediocre quality, only the top line was something that can you be proud owning it. So I was skeptical about the quality of the hand tools, and was going for Milwaukee, but I order this just to see if the line is worth the highish price point, and to my pleasant surprise, it is. The measure is big sturdy and up to the highest standard I can want. It is a bit bulkier than a normal size one, but it is worth the extra width as it sits good in hand and even the magnets just strong enough for the needs.

Gayet kaliteli ıslandığı halde diyer markalar gibi şeritleri silinmiyor

Beau mètre, solide. Un peu gros et lourd, mais il fait 5m ! Et… très précis, que ce soit en "tiré" ou en "poussé", ce qui n'est pas le cas de tous les mètres ruban ; mais pour du matériel Bosch Pro, ceci relève de l'évidence.

Good sturdy tape measure. Nice features like magnet and sturdy hooks

Eindelijk een rolmaat met goede rem functie. De 2e knop (rem) aan de onderkant is zeer handig. Gewoon aandrukken om vast te houden, en los laten op het lint te laten oprollen. Het metalen lint is zeer stevig waardoor deze niet zo snel buigt of draait wanneer je deze een lang eind hebt uitgeschoven. Goede rolmaat. Een aanrader.

とりあえず格好いい。思ったよりでかい。めっちゃしっかりしている。
