It takes quite an innovation to make us dance in the warehouse aisles. But we're dancing. And measuring everything in sight, while we're at it. Strait-Line's incredible Rolling Tape measures, calculates and even tells you where to hang your pictures. We want to emphasize here that this gadget actually does the math for you. Say you're ready to install a chair rail in the kitchen. You have two choices: You can get out your tape measure, pencil and paper and measure, add, check your math, fix your mistake, then measure and add some more—that is, if you can wrangle the tape by yourself. Your other (and far more attractive) option is to press the Rolling Tape to the wall and push the button. Do the same thing on each surface, then read the total on the big, clear screen and buy that length of molding. Want to hang five pictures evenly on a 22-foot wall? Just tell Rolling Tape how many pictures, roll, hammer and hang. It even has a little dimpler to mark the spots as it determines them. Incredible. Our only complaint: It ought to come with the batteries.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Not a math major November 22, 2004

My wife collects plates and after half of a day trying to hang 13 plates equally seperated around the kitchen, I broke down and bought one of these. What a life saver. All I did was roll it over the wall then told it how many plates I had and rolled it back. It beeped at each interval, and if I passed it up, an arrow popped up and told me which way to go. It even has a built in dimpler to mark each spot! This thing is awesome.
Great device January 26, 2005

Needed to find the center of a bedroom ceiling to install a overhead light. Since I live alone, I had no one to help me hold a regular tape measure to the ceiling. So I investigate other measuring device options and found the Strait-line 300 rolling tape
to be a good choice. Works great. Got the job done in less than five minutes. Tip - Save yourself some bucks, this device can be found at Home Depot for $20 dollars.

I will have limited use for a tape measure around the house thanks to my new rolling tape, especially when you have multiple items you want evenly spaced. The product allowed me to do the layout and measurements by myself and best of all it calculates the math!

This is a great product! The commercials are correct! But..
I ordered this from Amazon, then saw it at Home Depot for $19. That is a significant difference. Amazon only has a low price +10% if you have not already purchased it from Amazon.

For the person who rated this a 1 star i would suggest you pay attention. I went to the Christmas Tree Shop to pick this "Exact Same unit" as you said in your review. Turns out it is laser measurement device but very severly short of features and accuracy compared to the unit in review here. It is only good to 1/2" compared to the 1/16" of this unit. You caused me to waste a trip. I ordered from Amazon the same day and the unit is awesome.
