"Awesome ruler I love the length of this ruler I was able to cut longer lines of fabric at once then regular rulers."
"This is HUGE!!!"
"Previous fiskars rulers I've used had dark orange markings."
"Really recommend buying a self healing cutting mat and rotary cutter to use it to it's full potential."
"This is an excellent ruler."
"Perfect use when I'm using my rotary cutter, plus because of it's size, gives enough support to prevent fabric from moving when cutting."
"I have had this ruler for a month now and while I liked it at first the paint is already coming off I have two other brands of rulers that I use more and the paint isn’t coming off of them so I’m not sure why this one is coming off."

The Omnigrid has a super shiny surface which makes it difficult to see the lines in any light, but especially if you are in a bright room or have a light nearby; it reflects off the surface and you need to position yourself over the ruler to make a shadow so you can see the lines. Overall I would recommend the Olfa Frosted Advantage ruler in any size that suits your purposes."
"The older OLFA rulers would sometimes get a static charge to them & I would have to keep a dryer sheet nearby to rub on them, but this one doesn't do that."
"I love this ruler and will replace it with the same “if” it ever wears out and that’s not too likely."
"The frosted back really does help to keep it from slipping when compared with an all clear ruler."
"This size has proved useful many times over when I didn't need my large rulers but needed something longer than my square rulers."
"Wish I could find it in more sizes, so I could add them to my Creative Grids ruler collection."
"The frosted surface keeps the fabric from slipping."
"slips much less than my other rulers."

"Got it for my mom who always likes to go to fabric stores and ends up measuring the kids to make them outfits lol."
"I wanted to have a tape measure around since I never seem to have one when I'm trying to measure my body dimensions while buying clothes online."
"This is certainly not 'the best' tape measuring item on Amazon; but it's really perfect for the times when you need a 'non metal' tape to measure for gloves and clothing."
"For $3.99, I expected a just O.K., serviceable tape measure."
"It's 60 inches in case anyone was wondering, I couldn't find that anywhere before I ordered it."
"-- and one wherever I'm working around the house ... much more comfortable to carry in a pocket than a metal tape measure, and usually does the job for me."
"Powder all over my hands, and extremely "dented", the retractor mech is good though. A flexible tape like this is meant to be touched, used to measure hands, head, chest, etc."
