10. How is this product beneficial in daily use? 

Hear from a professional about the benefits of quick and efficient measurement skills: “As the owner of a kitchen cabinet business it is critical that measurements are correct. From the design, layout, build, and installation the measurements have to be exact.  I have hired many employees that said they could read a tape measure only to find out they couldn’t. Not only does it cost money for the extra time and material needed to correct the problem, it also puts us behind on deadlines for installing the cabinets. This also causes a domino effect on the other trades that are waiting for the cabinets to be installed, such as the painters, tile installers, and the trim out by the electricians.  One mistake can set the general contractor back weeks or months to finish the project.  It also throws off the schedule for installing other customer’s cabinets.”
