Hyper Tough 12ft. Self Lock Steel Tape Measure

Was looking for a inexpensive steel tape measure to keep in my office to quickly measure items. Mostly I use either 12 inch or 18 inch rulers. However, every once in a while I need to measure something longer. That's where this tape measure comes in. Small enough to fit neatly in one of my desk drawers, yet large enough to fit in my hand easily. It has 1/4 measurements also so that a person who didn't know how to measure with the lines between the inch numbers could either be used or ignored. Since I learned how to read the lines between the numbers when I was a small child, this was unnecessary, but I can see it being useful for others who weren't raised with blue collar family members. It comes in a couple of colors, I chose red as that way I can tell at a glance where this particular tape measure goes. I LOVE my fat Stanley, but it's nice to have a smaller, less expensive one in my desk. I've already used it a couple of times and only got it yesterday. Would I recommend it for building/remodeling a house? No. But for having a handy small tape measure to use when moving furniture or other types of uses, it fits the bill.
