I have had many functional dispensers over the years. This is not one of them. It is frustrating, doesn't work at all and you need scissors and an extra hand to get the tape

I bought this, it wasnt cheap, and the blade doesnt cut at all. I cannot believe they are still selling this. What a scam.

I'm moving and bought a new tape gun to expedite the process. This has actually made it more difficult. As everyone else has said, this DOES NOT CUT TAPE. Either 3m tested this with junk tape or they're hoping the blade will somehow caress the tape apart. Easily and literally the worst tape gun I've used in my life.

Its a sturdy gun but the blade does not extend out far enough to cut the tape. If you press it against the box you could end up cutting into the box itself. The product should have been better tested.

I bought this product today to assemble packing boxes for upcoming move. I could not get the dispenser to cut the tape that came with the dispenser. Pushing against box and twisting wrist did not work, had to cut with scissors. Total pain!

Thanks very much for taking away the functionality of this dispenser. Integrating a safety to protect idiots has made this tape gun ridiculously annoying. If you cut yourself with a tape dispenser, hopefully that's a lesson you only have to learn once. If you learn it again, you probably deserve it. I miss when products weren't designed for the lowest common denominator.

We apologies for challenges you faced and thank you for the constructive feedback. Your experience is not what we would expect. Our dispenser should cut the tape when you press the plastic guard firmly against the box to move the blades forward and while holding it against the box - you then twist your wrist to cut the tape. If this is not working, please connect with our team at 1-800-328-6276 Mon-Fri 8am-4:30pm CT and reference case 32917371. Thanks again, and we look forward to your call.
I have bought two of these and neither of them will cut the tape when pressed fully against the box.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

After buying this dispenser to replace a great older one I had for years, I was thoroughly disappointed and had to use scissors to cut the tape! What to do with 3 large rolls of replacement tape when this dispenser is going in the trash! :(
