I work solo as finish carpenter, the tape sags or doesn't stand out very far 11ft avg own luftjkin niteeyes, Stanley fatmax auto lock and milwaukee stud. Saw video using laser tape now have lieca to measure crown and stabila provides room cubic inches. No more adding 3xcessive amount then trim to fit, just add inch trim to fit.
Milwaukee is so curved, that's why it has such a standout, but in general I think it is a minus, because if the tape is way too curved, it is uncomfortable to use, also that hole underneath will get the dust in and the tape will stop retracting sooner.
The mikwaukee looks like it's sagging down further than the fatmax, even when it's only extended the same distance as the fatmax at around 11 ft. I could be wrong, but if that's true then I'd say the fatmax has a more useful standout, even if not as far on the tape
I own... Luftkin is okay tape large numbers and light weight Luftkin nite eyes has flat black blade with neon green large numbers is heavy and flimsy blade Stanley fat Max auto lock i keep at my miter saw Bought milwuakee stud while bulky has stiff blade and large numbers. As i was building a deck had my head somewhere drove marking stake into the blade it still works just fine A customer gave me a dewalt will only collect dust

I’ll take the USA made one. Milwaukee is completely sold off overseas.
Me too!
USA made with (global materials).
Original Stanley is king
The original is gone. Silver plastic case now
I prefer fatmax autolock
Swanson is good.
For me the fatmax stops retracting eventually and the Milwaukees all peel apart. No tape lasts more than 6 months
I have had 0 problems with my stanley or milwaukee had them since release!
