It's a US manufacture, the handle is telescopic and the wheel a compact 12"/1ft in diameter - which means it will fit in a tool box or live happily in the trunk of a car. It measures in feet and inches and whether you're a home owner or professional, it will do exactly what you need it to do. Mid-range price in the rolling measuring device category - and definitely the best.

Currently offered at a rather impressive discount and definitely one to buy if you intend to use it on a regular basis.

This is the cheapest measuring wheel so don't expect it to outperform it's competitors in terms of accuracy and usability. It's as entry level as it gets and it does have some pretty poor reviews. That said - it will suit someone that needs a wheel for occasional use. No point parting with 50 bucks if you're only going to use it now and again.

The wheel will measure a thousand feet fairly well and can cope with bumpy terrain. It doesn't have any special features but you're not paying for them either. This is a basic, straight forward measuring device that will do a decent job around the yard. For the price, and for occasional use, it's worth it. And if you want more from a wheel, this is not it. It you want a Porsche, don't buy a Prius.

This is the best ergonomic measuring wheel and it does provide a comforting grip and posture. It will measure up to 9999 ft before it needs a resent and the handle includes a brake facility and the reset button. It will fold down when not required and can be stored in a bag that comes included in the price.

It's pretty accurate over long and short distances and doesn't weigh an uncomfortable amount. The ergonomic design is good for what it is - especially if you've got a troublesome back issue - the reset button being on the handle is a big help. Overall, solid, does its job and will work well over none rough terrain - best for road surfaces and other hard ground.

This one is the best digital measuring wheel and coming from Stanley, it's a fine all round tool. The wheel diameter is 12" and it can do almost one thousand feet before resetting. The digital measuring automatically converts and the read out is sited on the handle. The wheel itself is manufactured from aluminum and the handle folds for easy storage.

In the hand, it feels reliable and robust and the digital readout is a breeze to read and use. It's lightweight enough yet can tackle rougher terrain without issue and the kickstand works without getting in the way when you don't need it. Gave an accurate measurement and overall performed well. Relatively cheap for a digital distance wheel, plus it's a Stanley and they're known for their quality products and great customer service focus.
