Worst tape gun I have ever used
on June 18, 2008
Posted by: Paula K.
This is the most dangerous tape gun I have ever used (and I've used many over the last 20 years). The tape stuck to the metal piece behind the cutting edge and would not come off. When I was finally able yank it off the metal piece the tape pulled out so fast that I cut myself on the cutting edge. Then the tape dispensed too quickly. No matter how I stored the tape gun the tape would always wind up stuck to the metal piece again. (And yes I do know how to load a tape gun.) After it cut me the second time I gave up and returned it. Luckily I still have the tape gun I've been using for more than 15 years and it works like a charm. The only plus about this one is that the grip is very comfortable. Staples -- please redesign this product!

Makes packing easier

I'm doing a lot of packing and this makes re-inforcing and closing boxes faster and easier. You really can use one hand to use it due to the tape break.

This will not work if you have to box up more than 4 the roll does not stay on and the teeth bend easily. I would not really recommend this.

Not like the professional ones.

You have to pull the tape from the roll each time. It won't stay put once you cut it. Double the effort and is not worth it. They did not think through the design. A simple disposable plastic one I have works better. Its a waste of money!

Secure storage
on February 12, 2015
Posted by: Paula K.
I "recycle" the neighborhood grocery store's discarded boxes by using them for items that I want to store in my attic. This tape dispenser comes in very handy for securely closing the boxes. I label the boxes before I store them and now I can actually find what I am looking for in the attic.
