[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my favorite tape! Taping packages is just one of the many things I use it for, but one "unorthodox" use is to remove other things. For example, if I remove a label and it leaves part of the label and/or a sticky residue, I put a piece of this tape over it, press it down, and then remove the tape......takes everything with it! As for its main purpose.....it is the best packing tape you can buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 3M gave me a free sample of this product to evaluate. Scotch heavy Duty Packaging Tape seals seams with just one strip of tape- even on bulky surfaces. The tape is easy to dispense and apply. The dispenser cuts cleanly - a bonus! The other quality I like about this tape is that it is clear so it can easily be used over labels without fear of covering important shipping information. The strong adhesive quality of this tape along with the ease of dispensing and application make this an economical and reliable tape to use for packages.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Scotch® Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape really is heavy duty. This stuff is strong and has tons of uses. I think it's a good idea to keep stocked in any junk or desk drawer. I used it to reseal a bag of soil, and it seems to have done a good job keeping it fresh. I've trusted it for multiple packages I've sent in the mail with no complaints yet. It's easy to tear using the dispenser, but make sure to keep the end piece to reattach to the end of the tape as to not lose it to the tape roll. It has a nice clear finish and sticks well. I'd recommend it.

Based on all of the rave reviews, I must have received a bad batch or something. I got a small box of these 1.5" cores on the plastic dispensers. I took one small roll (out of the small box of them) with me to a convention, so that I could pack up everything when the show was complete. When I put it on the first box, I noticed that something was very wrong. It would barely stick to the box. I noticed that it would barely even stick to my fingers. I then tried to seal a couple boxes with it. However, buy the time I got to the next box, it was already coming off of the previous box. When pulled it off of the roll, it was nearly as sticky on the "adhesive" side as it was on the back. This was huge mess for me. It was the only roll of tape I had (I only had 6-7 boxes to seal). When I got back, I noticed that the other brand-new rolls were the same. Very disappointing. :-(

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heavy duty tape product was sent to me as a free trial sample. It's the most heavy duty packing tape I have ever used, and very secure. I used it to mail a package to my aunt. The dispenser is good, lightweight and compact, not like the heavy duty industrial style someone purchased for my office. The 3M dispenser is easy to use with a bit of practice - much better faster, and convenient than using scissors like I used to do and the tape would twist and get stuck to itself or I'd drop it and it would roll away. Ha! Those days are over. Hooray!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a free sample of 3M - Scotch® Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape with Dispenser to evaluate. This packaging tape is the best. It holds securely. I don't have to worry about my packages when I send them through any mail/package carrier. The tape holds strongly and does not tear when applying it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping Tape was a sample sent to me from 3M. I used this product and was very happy with the results. This tape is thick and strong and holds really well.I would reccomend this tape.

Bought shipping and packing tape for a move. It just kept lifting off. At one point I was lifting a box off the ground and my foot stuck to a piece of lifted tape. The whole bottom came open Definiely NOT using this on my next move (a month from now)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heavy duty version of packing tape is great for those heavier packages you need to ship, or the larger and heavier moving boxes (such as china, kitchenware, etc.) You don't need as many layers of tape with this heavy duty tape.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this tape and dispenser. I never have a problem with the tape rolling back in on the roll. The dispenser is easy to use. It helps to keep the tape straight so I can tape my boxes together for shipping. I know that when I use this tape I can be sure that the package I'm sending will not come open.
