$12 for a Milwaukee tape measure is a pretty good deal. The compact size makes it easy to keep in a tool bag, drawer, or even a pocket, while the fractional scale is a nice bonus for quick measurements.

It's not compact by any means and it's quite heavy. I've been using hyper tough tape measures from Walmart which are lighter and have been very durable so far.

Not sure if it's important. It's important to some people. But either way, the pictures show it is not printed on both sides.

Metric on one edge would be better.

I have this tape measure and can confirm the measurements are only on one side.

I bought this last sale based on the "compact size" and found it every bit as large and heavy as my DeWalt measure that is also printed on both sides that occasionally comes in handy.
