The definition of cheap and flimsy
This does not sit level and came apart in pieces trying to adjust the height. Also had an excessive amount of grease that added to the mess. Would not recommend.

Impossible to get an accurate measure
This measuring stick is made cheaply. The part that unfolds and should sit on the horses withers hangs well below "level".

well constructed, sturdy. Should last for years
Have wanted one for a long time so when I got two gift certificates I did not feel bad purchasing something I will rarely use

Measure stick
I purchased this for use at Holsteiner Inspection of mares and foals. The judge uses it when recording and seemed quite happy with it. Professional grade, easy to use and not as cumbersome as old wooden variety. I give it an A+

Disappointed
As other reviews have stated, this is a flimsy measuring stick. Arrived in a HUGE box, with no packing, so had obviously been jostled by UPS while in transit. The cheap plastic storage bag had the remnants of someone else's name sticker on it, so the unit had clearly been returned. When I extended the stick to full height, the top spring which supports the black plastic arm popped out! I was able to reassemble, but the plastic arm does not sit level.
Save your money and buy a different brand- I have used much sturdier measuring sticks!

Cheap Plastic and Level Doesn't Work
Arrived broken with pieces of broken plastic and springs in the case despite air packing in the box. The level arm is droopy and can't be tightened straight so you can't properly use it to ensure the stick is level. Has to be returned. I'm a breed inspection organizer and would be embarrassed to hand this to the judges for measuring horses.

I love it!
As a pleasure horse owner and not a professional, this is one of those barn items you don't really need but it is so great to have. We have always used the tape to measure horse height but could never really line it up right. This stick makes it so easy and it even has a level to keep it straight. Seems fairly high quality, is light weight and come with its on storage case. Now I can measure my 2 year old regularly and keep up with his growth.

Poor Quality
This was the most disappointing product from Smartpak I have bought. It continually falls apart when you pull it out to use it. I should have sent it back, but I had already thrown out the box and packing. It does measure. So I guess I will keep it. This is
one thing you should buy locally, if possible.
