I have to say I used to only buy 3M Scotch clear packing tape after having bad experiences with cheaper or house brands (especially with sticking together). However after getting a package delivered to me sealed with paper tape I suddenly realized I didn't need to use a plastic type. On my next shopping trip I found this Staples paper tape and am happy with the results. In fact it comes back off a bit more easily than clear tape allowing a little more flexibility in placement. I don't get waste (and frustration) due to sticking together. I had to adjust my cutting technique some and it shows wrinkles more but I don't mind and I feel good about using something hopefully more biodegradable and planet friendly.

Good for what it's used for

Good product however when you use the tape it has alot of threads that remain on the roll and you have to pull them off after each use. Maybe the tear strip isn't sharp enough to cut it and this occurs. Good to cover up mailing boxes so that you can reuse them for shipping.
