DEWALT ATOMIC Compact Series 25' Tape Measure, 1 Pack Bundle

I love these tapes. 16' is plenty for most jobs I do, and it's smaller & lighter in my bag. I have several of these and they are the designated "job site" tapes. They all come in with great accuracy - other tapes are often as much as 1/8" off! The width of these makes the stand out distance long - over 10' IIRC. Great for measuring and pointing. The finger hold at the bottom to prevent retraction is handy, and beats some of the more mechanical "gimmicky" tapes in my opinion. I also love the fraction markings on the tape. It's great for getting a fast read, especially as the markings are on both sides. This should be standard, but most tapes don't do it. Worth every penny!

I'm a big fan of DeWalt tools so had high expectations when I ordered this 16' tape measure. There's not a lot to say about it as far as function. It's a tape measure and does what a tape measure should do. But it's a solid little device that I find myself using often. The blade is super-sturdy and hasn't collapsed once, thought I've not extended it full length yet. It has clean, clear markings on both edges (and both sides) of the blade--one edge with the fractional amounts indicated. It's a compact, solid, chunky tape measure that I really like. If I end up needing to get a longer one, I'm sure I'll go with this DeWalt line again. It's a pleasure to measure with it.

Comfortable in the hand and accurate

The battery is good to use, with a decent battery life. It's also very convenient to charge. The workmanship is excellent, small and exquisite, and it works very well when in use

The Dewalt 25ft tape measure stands out for its clear, easy-to-read fractional markings, including 1/8 inch increments, which make precise measurements quick and straightforward. The double-sided blade printing is a great feature, allowing you to read measurements from any angle, including overhead or vertical surfaces. The tape itself feels durable, with a tough case and a wear-resistant blade coating that helps the markings stay visible over time. The extended reach—up to 13 or even 17 feet depending on the model—means you can measure long spans without needing a second person. Features like the removable magnet on the hook and an integrated finger brake (on some models) add convenience and control, especially when working solo or in tight spaces. While the tape is a bit bulkier than some compact options, the sturdy construction and secure grip make it comfortable to use on the job. It’s well-suited for a range of tasks, from framing and decking to drywall and general site layout. Overall, if you value durability and clear fractional markings, this Dewalt tape measure is a reliable choice for both DIYers and professionals.

You should really be buying a fatmax, but if for whatever reason you might not like them (too fat?) these are a solid choice, and I like the finger brake on the bottom. Blade itself kinks easily I found, and thats why its my backup. Light and handy, will take a fall, cheap and better than a lufkin, but not by much.

Dewalt = GOAT. Enough said

It’s a chunk of a small measuring tape and perhaps a little wide to being wearing on your belt, but I keep it in my Dewalt power tool bag where the bulk isn’t an issue and the length is perfect for my needs. Quality of both the actual tape and housing seems top notch and I’m pleased with my purchase.
