There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
1) It doesn't lie totally flat (slight permanent bend). The packaging was actually quite good, so I'm pretty sure this didn't occur in shipping.
2) It doesn't have 1/16th inch marks. Given that there are mm markings (more precise than 1/16th in), this doesn't seem hard to do and would increase the usefulness of the stick.
One positive note: the missing metric/standard conversion that another reviewer noted has been fixed on the stick I received.

Interested in buying
Was too large for my
Small dining area.
It will fit just right.
OK, six years later, I like this meter stick a lot and use it all the time. Some of the markings in the first few inches have worn off some, as I feared they would, but it hasn’t bent and is still an extremely useful tool.
