Timeless design!
Feels professional grade!
Important item to have at home!
Having 96 inches is another plus (some are shorter lengths) and I'm totally satisfied.
EDIT [02-12-2019]: Okay, so I'm back here to add additional commentary to my review a little bit because someone mentioned the FIRST INCH being short (where the metal terminates the tape). I re-checked my measuring tape and the FIRST INCH is OFF (or SHORT) by 1/16 of a inch. Then I went to the LAST INCH inch (where the metal terminates on the other end of the tape by the 96" inch mark) and it is OFF (or OVER) by 1/16 of a inch. So, while, I believe the whole tape should be accurate to scale, it's NOT a deal breaker at all for me with such a very small incremental error. Just be aware of the FIRST INCH and the LAST INCH.
