NO STICK
on April 2, 2014

I used this tape to seal cardboard moving boxes filled with books. The next morning the tape had peeled off almost all of them - just hanging there! I have been a Staples customer for a long time and never bought anything from you that was so totally useless. Returned them for credit and got 20% off Scorch tape. Hard to believe that you will continue to sell this tape. Bill

Doesn't stick very well at the boxes..

I bought it with the purpose to seal a parcel to ship overseas.... Unfortunately the tape doesn't remain stuck firmly. To be sure I gave another round of regular clear tape over it. I hope it last the trip!

Doesn't stick to corrugated cartons

Bought this to tape up brand new moving cartons. Used the dispenser to apply tape to the bottoms of the cartons then pressed it into place by hand. Then we turned boxes over and filled them. When we picked up the full boxes the tape came loose. It just didn't stick. We had to send somebody out to buy more before we could proceed. That extra trip made it the most expensive tape I've ever purchased. We also had to empty and repack some of the boxes. Staples should not sell inferior products like this one. Feh!

It's really easy to use you can always find where the tape starts with 0 problems. Once the tape is on the box it is not coming off or opening unless you rip it off or cut it.

Paper packing tape used for mailing certain types of USPS packages

Paper packing tape is the only tape the USPS allows you to use on parcels that are being sent registered and insured. They demonstrated to me how the plastic tape used to seal a package will allow someone to remove the Post Office "stamping" as the stamping can be rubbed off on the sealed overlap to pilfer the package. The paper tape won't allow the ink from their stamp to be rubbed off or otherwise be removed. I mail packages frequently registered and insured with valuable contents this is one way of minimizing the potential of the package being pilfered! Yea for the USPS!!

The tape does not stick well to corrugated box. It begins to turn up at the ends of the tape. I am very disappointed in the product.

This is great as it sticks good to the box only wish I could write on it as when I address on top of the tape it smears.
