Good delievery and price. Battery supplied was ' flat' - purchased new one and all ok. Suggest review stock holding to ensure units are supplied with ' in date' batteries

Hi Bernard, many thanks for your review. We really appreciate all feedback and positive feedback is always nice to have! I'm sorry to hear that the battery within your Protimeter Digital Mini was flat. I can assure you that these are in date (there's usually a production date stamped on the bottom/side if you would like to check) - a brand new battery is supplied by the manufacturer with each unit. However, it's possible that there is a bad batch of batteries doing the rounds. I will have a brand new battery sent out to you for delivery in just a few days. Thank you for your custom and apologies for the flat battery! Many thanks, Ian Johnson The Tape Store

I purchased a Leica Disto 2 to make life easier than struggling with a tape! It has proved invaluable and accurate. Wish i had bought one years ago! I shopped around and found the Tape store good value, easy website and fast delivery Regards J. H

2 Items purchased were great pieces of kit. The items were delivered next working day which was great as I required the use of them the following day. The items were not delivered together. They arrived on two different deliveries. Tape store should inform customers that some products if ordered together will not arrive at the same time. Overall the service was good. Would have been all.stars and a very good rating.

Purchased a trumeter digital measuring wheel. I wish it had said that it does not work on grass!!, because of its accuracy (which is very good) any undulations in the ground do not give an accurate measure, it was 2m out over 100m. It was purchased for the sole reason to set out sports pitches. It was used once and will never be used again. Annoying! Service from the Tape store was excellent

I bought this tape measure as I was fed up with readig the prominent imperial measurements when I most often now need metric. It took me ages to determine what the clip trigger was for on the tool pouch clip. When it's pulled back the clip disengages from the tape measure. I suppose that is a good idea if you are too lazy to slide it up off your belt loop but otherwise I don't see the use! I was a bit disappointed with the fact there is no upside reading too on the tape as I am left handed and if I pull the tape from right to left, all my readings were upside down. So, like almost everything, I have to adapt to the right hand world! Just a bit of forethought would have avoided this. I'm wondering if the print on the tape measure will last very long as it doesn't look very strongly adhered to the metal. All in all, I was pretty disappointed as I expected Hultafors brands to be a little better for the price.

Hello Wendy, Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review and apologies that the tape you bought didn't match your expectations. However, the tape is very accurately described on our website and, had you been in any doubt as to its suitability, you could have called/sent an email through the website and asked about the markings. The Fisco BT8M that you purchased is a very popular tape for us and we haven't had any negative feedback at all in the 3+ years we have been selling it. What's more, the large belt clip is clearly displayed in the image on our website and is accurately described there too. That said, I completely understand that different people require different things out of a tool. What is ideal for one person will be completely unsuitable for another. I can only stress that, if you had got in touch with us when the tape arrived (prior to using it) and told us it was unsuitable we would've taken it back, provided a refund or sent you a replacement tape of another make/model. This is clearly laid down in the delivery and returns section of our website. We take our customer's happiness very, very seriously and would never want them to receive a product that was not suitable. From our records it does appear that our service (i.e. how quickly we despatched the goods and had them delivered) was as promised. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with me directly if you have any other questions. Kind regards, Ian Johnson The Tape Store
