FATMAX Tape Measure, 25-Foot (33-725)

Great tape measure — I’ve probably bought 20 of these for work because the quality is that good. The blade is strong with excellent standout, the lock holds tight, and it can handle jobsite abuse without falling apart. Reliable, durable, and worth every penny. I won’t use anything else.

Attention, tool lovers and DIY disasters alike: the Stanley Fat Max 30-Foot Tape Measure is here to turn your home improvement dreams into reality—and measure your failures with incredible precision! When I first held the Fat Max, I felt a surge of power—like Thor grasping his hammer, only this tool won’t summon lightning (hopefully). This isn’t just a tape measure; it’s a beacon of hope for those of us who can’t eyeball a straight line to save our lives. Its tape is so sturdy it can double as a makeshift leash for when my dog decides he’s the neighborhood escape artist. With a standout of a whopping 11 feet, I can measure my living room without the help of my lazy brother-in-law. The tape measure clicks like a boss every time I extend it, which is oddly satisfying. And the rubber casing? I dropped it from my roof, and it bounced back with the enthusiasm of a toddler on a sugar rush—not a scratch on it. I've measured everything from the size of my new coffee table to the slowly increasing distance between my fridge and couch. Spoiler alert: they're getting further apart, and so is my relationship with exercise. If you're looking for a tape measure that can endure the wilds of suburbia and the chaos of construction, look no further. The Fat Max doesn't just measure spaces; it expands them—with possibility, precision, and a bit of humor. Five stars for making me feel like the ruler of my domain (literally).

I ordered a Stanley fat max, and I got one, it's my favorite tape measure, I've had several of these through my years in the trades, they're great

Great tape.

Product ok. Packaging terrible and cut half off, which scratched the tape

I don't know what they were thinking taking this from thier flagship tape. Its still the best regular tape measure made. SMALL hooks, NO magnets, tape measures peaked at this model right here, unless you use those things specifically for your job. This was, is, and most likely will be, the best overall general purpose. They used to have a warrantee, well that didn't work out so well and they should have known better. Wore out? Go to lowes, they don't care. Durable, NOT so bendy (the standout is alot better due to lack of weight on the end). Better than a homeowner needs, unless he's building a deck or remodeling. Its 40% off right now. Thats pretty good, this is a good price. Its a 20$ tape for sure.

Thank you. The tape works perfectly.

Easy to use and read the numbers

It's quite good, the only problems I had so far were that for some reason the front part scratched up right after the first use of like 20 seconds and the other problem is that it is very addictive to play with and I just can't stop using it because this mechanism is so satisfying! This also made me unable to sleep because it's so addictive.

Was quite happy to find a measuring tape with both metric and imperial measurements. I don't use it for heavy construction work so I don't know about how durable it is, however the tape stays stiff until a bit over 2m and I've dropped it several times onto concrete and you can't tell.

Best Tape Measure

Awesome measuring tape. The best i've ever had. Easy to use easy to read. Stays in place. Everyone wanted one that this one got stolen and had to be replaced. Great for work and at home. Excellent.

Great tape
