I purchased the Staples Desktop Tape Dispenser in black for the second desk set-up in my husband's office. I wanted one that didn't take up too much space. My other requirement was that it was sturdy and wouldn't tip over while pulling and tearing off a piece of tape. This tape dispenser fills the bill. I had looked at two discount stores as well as a major warehouse big box store which did not have any tape dispensers which fit what I was looking for. The price was competitive with the other stores so Staples Brand it was.
