Pros

The cutter works very well, and doesn't get as gunked up with the sticky side facing away from the cutter. I have some scotch tape with bi-directional glass yarns for sturdy packing. The blade on this is replaceable should it get dull.

Like this product alot! Holy macaroni noodles, is this the best ever!

The part i like the best is that it fits in a small drawer. I know that this tape dispenser looks rather crude and simple, but i have been using one in my office for twenty some odd years. This works just as good and is smaller.

This tape dispenser is made out of really sturdy plastic -- not the cheap, thin brittle kind. It is made of light plastic, but not flimsy at all, it is also easy to load and operate. Very versatile and built solid.

This scotch tape dispenser lets you unroll packing tape. It works sort of like how a paper towel holder holds the towels and releases them for unrolling. It has metal teeth at one end for a clean cut once you've unrolled the amount you intend on using...  Read More



Cons

Price


The price is particularly reasonable, reasonable enough to keep one of these on hand with a few rolls of tape.

Shipping


I have been packing and shipping packages almost every single day.


I worked in a shipping department and this type of dispenser was by far the best.

Packaging/appearance

After installing my first roll of  scotch box sealing tape 311 , i was impressed by the ease with which the...  Read More


This new version with the “brake” is giving me a little trouble, as it cuts the tape at any curve in the packaging!


I use a lot of 3m packaging tape, but am using a rather awkward tape dispenser.

Competitiveness


Superior to all others even at the extra cost than others.


We use these a ton in our business.


As i recall it came free with the purchase of a package of packing tape back in the 1980's and i thought what a cheapy dispenser.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Any others i have used are heavier and it is difficult to get them to cut without lots of pressure and frustration
