4.0 out of 5 stars Speed Demon Chalk Line, a real world test, June 15, 2003

This review is from: Keson P-30 Speed Demon Chalk Line (Tools & Home Improvement)

When I received my first Speed Demon as a gift, I thought it was interesting, but that it would break in a matter of days. Was I ever wrong about this product! First of all let me tell you that I am a sub contractor for a swimming pool company. I have been setting pool tile for over 12 years and have subsequently broken or destroyed at least one of every type of tool used on the job. Our tools get used hard. They get dropped in the water, left in the mud overnight, stepped on and worse. Chalk lines are used nearly every day and I normally break or ruin several a year. My Speed Demon lasted through over 18 months of this torture. That's longer than any other chalk line I have used. Not only this, but it saved me hours of time usually spent cranking in line time and time again. I cannot stress enough the convienience of this feature.Contrary to other reviews I have read, you can change the line although it is a frustrating experience. The only thing I can think of as a possible improvement would be a sliding lock to hold the line out, or maybe an aluminum body although I never broke the plastic one. Eventually the spring mechanism completly gave out and my first Speed Demon had to be thrown out. I ordered three more the next day. So has everyone else that I work with.
