Product Description
Amazon.com Review
German products firm Blomus brings together clean, modern design by European designers and excellent German craftsmanship. This tape measure, for instance, is one any executive would be proud to keep on a desk. Housed in a matte-finish, stainless-steel case, the retractable stainless-steel tape measures up to 10 feet (3 meters) in both inches and metric. A stop button locks the tape open at the desired length, and a metal lip on the tape hooks under molding, around a door frame, on a table edge, etc. A handsome gift, the case measures 2-1/2 by 3/4 inches, and complements other contemporary Blomus desktop items, such as a stapler, tape dispenser, and business card holder.
Blomus is the brand name launched in 2001 for innovative stainless-steel products by SKS-Design, a family-owned German design company now run by the family's fifth generation. Comprising more than 500 items for the modern kitchen, bath, bar, fireplace, office, and outdoor patio, Blomus products embody this philosophy: Good design is both simple to use and beautiful to look at. This tape measure, like most Blomus products, is made in Germany. --Ann Bieri

Unfortunate,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Blomus 68708 Stainless-Steel Measuring Tape (Kitchen)
I purchased this product under the impression that it was the original German. What arrived instead is a substandard, poorly finished, manufactured in China product. The outside steel casing was of decent quality steel. Here are the specific points which makes this product(that was shipped to me) a item not worth buying:
1. The stop switch is fitted in a poorly fitted plastic guard. Improperly spaced guard and its not finished well. Definitely not even close to german machining quality and materials. 2. The Clamp fixed at the end of the tape is loose! can you believe it? That makes it look like a $2.99 tool! 3. The tape is thin, and the edges are not perfectly polished. Under all probablity the edges will rust within a month of regular use. The markings on the take is just regular painted marks. That's probably still OK, but the quality of the paint seems poor and does not look like it will hold the test of time. Conclusion: The original german is a world famous product and is a marvel and a pride to own which will be a faithful companion for easily a decade. But what was shipped to me was a utter shame - a cheap $5 replica of the original - the atual item that was shipped to me also does not look like the product advertised on amazon. Once you order it and see it for yourself(especially if you know first hand what German machinery and quality is) you would be able to conclude for yourself that this product should be removed from Amazon and the seller should be suitably advised.

Tape measure,

This review is from: Blomus 68708 Stainless-Steel Measuring Tape (Kitchen)
Great item for engraving, which is what I used it for. Don't like the button though. Makes it a bit difficult to extend, but the clicks remind you to push it quickly.
