This tape is very heavy duty and I always buy it, to wrap Christmas gifts in a box. This tape always lasts for four years, because I don’t use a lot.

Worth the money for the excellent design of the Scotch Sure Start Packaging Tape. No hassles using it. Works perfect every single time! Great buy!

Sure start to NOTHING! The worst tape i have ever used. The only thing its sticks to is ITSELF! I had to tape all around the box onto itself for it to stay, what a waste!! Im moving and i bought a 4 pack of worthless tape. Needed to go back and exchange them. Dont waste your time!

HEY, I am sick and tired of having feet of unused tape cluttering the countertop while I try to coax your wasteful dispenser to provide me with a few inches of usable tape. Would it not be more thoughtful to have, imprinted on the tape itself, an indication of the direction the tape should be dispensed. And what's the logic behind not imprinting the silver start strip with some indication of it's orientation on the roll, i.e. LIFT THIS EDGE.... Come on, this isn't rocket science. On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend Scotch™ Brand to a friend or colleague?* 3, only because the competition is worse.

"Sure Start" is not as thick as the older 3M packaging tape. I used it on all sides of a 20 pound box of books in the usual way (no problems with taping like this in the past). The recipient just wrote to say the box arrived burst open with some other junk in it (not the books), with the statement, "next time use a LOT more tape." So don't rely on this !

I have an online business, and I ship between 250-300 packages/year, and this is the only tape I use. Every other brand - the tape sticks to itself constantly, and it's difficult to peel the end back up/get it started again. But I rarely have issues like that with this tape. Plus, one time my visor on my car broke (photo attached), and it hung down so far I couldn't see when I was driving to my cousin's house on Christmas Eve. It was close to midnight, and there weren't any garages open, of course. Luckily, I had some tape in my purse! I taped the visor to the ceiling of my car, and it held another 100 miles until I got to my cousin's! Now, that's STRONG tape! Didn't think to take a photo AFTER I taped up the visor, but you get the idea...:)

works great for donations and packing of items

great tape - using for our move! will probably need another box as we are finishing up!

not as thick as packaging tape. quality seemed to be a bit lacking.

Tape is tape but it is a good buy !
