Steaming pile

I really enjoyed how the price is double of the other brands. The best part is the fact it dosent stick to cardboard. And woe to you if it happens to overlap itself, it actually repels itself so you have those awesome little sticky tabs flapping around. This stuff is clear, ya cant claim it isn't clear. It is also clearly garbage. A frustrating, expensive, pile of clear garbage. Use the off brand dollar store tape. I gave the 2 -1/2rolls i had left, of a 3 roll bunch to my mother I law. And you cant give it a zero in recommendations because they won't let your review go through. Even tho it says on a scale of 0-10
Just purchased this product for moving out of state and every box is going to need redone as the tape is just letting loose on all the boxes it's on. No time for this as we are loading the haul tomorrow which is going to suck retyping 60+ boxes while moving them.

Tape doesn't stick. Pretty useless. Scotch tape used to be great.

I'm a unique user. I use long life tape to secure plaz lid to plaz box's. (Why can't I edit anything in this post ???) I mostly tape magazine covers, dclippings, book repair, and labels. I have 1000s of old.magz. As an engineer I'm very sad mmm doesn't post tech info: I need peel and notch strength, plastic chemistry (hardness, scratch), uv and water life, tensile and strain, etc.(This tape has zero notch strengrh.) I've used mmm Book Repair Tape, which is wider, thicker and also has zero strength. Another waste of $$$ and time. I've been using 001 Photo Tape for best magazine covers, but it's < 1 in wide, and costly for 100% over lap.i would buy a lot, if 001 came in 2, 4 or 5 in widths

After reading the first eight one-star reviews, I have experienced the same problem -- the tape will not stay stuck to cardboard boxes, no matter the box. I agree with the reviewer who would not have imagined needing to review a 3M/Scotch brand product. Suffice to say I will not buy this product ever again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this tape for moving and some of our boxes will be in a temperature controlled climate - this is the worst tape as I had to put many pieces on the boxes and they kept coming off - which is very frustrating when you have over 50 boxes that you have to keep the tape from coming off of. I find the shipping tape is working the best now - after I purchased 5 rolls of the "moving and storage" tape!!!

This tape was used for moving. Even on light boxes the tape literally fell off of the boxes. I hadn't to go out and buy new tape to re-tape every box I had originally put this tape on. An infuriating waste of money on a sorry product.

I bought Scotch brand tape because of its history of being such a good company. I should have read the reviews. This tape is terrible! Doesn't stick to the boxes! Just pops itself off so everything I thought was boxed and ready had to be completely retaped. What a waste of effort!
