I have used a considerable number of tape products over the years and have found the "Staples" brand of filament tape to amongst the poorest of most. The tape is very difficult to begin MUST be cut with shears and cannot be utilized with tape dispensors of any kind. The glue tends to slide to the side making it the shipping product sticky. The cost of the product is only slightly less than that of Scotch products or comparable brands. The savings is so minimal I don't think it is cost affe
We use alot of this item to ship packages to nuns in Mexico as well as shipping rosaries to Africa India and many other countries. It holds up great and has a very reasonable cost for the amount of tape in each roll. We have used it for many years with no negative problems at all. We hope you keep making this product.
This product is great for shipping heavy packages anywhere in the world. I have used the extra wide size for packages 11" x 8.5" x 8.5" weighing 20 lbs and shipped the packages to any part of the world with peace of mind. I always receive complements from my customers for grreat and safe packing The strength of the filament tape can be trusted even for moving large baxes. A wider-size is ideal for this usage. I have used the wider size for this purpose and moving my stuff to another home couldn't have been easier and safer without it.
I bought this tape to tape up a large box. It worked like a charm! I had to send a 23lb juicer to Anaheim Ca to be repaired. When I got the box to UPS they told me the box was taped very securely. So the job was fone and my box is on the way.
Horrible tape. Gums up the scissors hard to cut. Splits easily curls back onto itself. Lots of waste. I'm giving it one star only because I can't give it zero stars. Next time I'll spend extra and get heavy-duty tape. Please improve this product or find an alternative.
