[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I bought my first house, I bought a few essential supplies; the common hammer, stapler, screwdriver and tape gun - this one. I have had it now for 10+ years, it still works like it did when it was new : EXCELLENTLY! Easy to load, easy to use, and very powerful and durable. Mine has my hane wrote on it, and if you use it - you BETTER PUT IT BACK; it does have a home ;)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great tape that is crystal clear and will obviously stand up to some heavy use. The dispenser makes it easy to use and store without having to fight with tape ends. It also makes it easier to apply and cut the tape.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tested out Scotch(R) Premium Performance Packaging Tape by shipping 60 binders to Tarrytown from Columbia in NYC. I was surprised how little tape I needed and how well it held the over weight boxes together. Definitely a must have for all shipping needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very impressed with the stickiness of the Scotch Heavy Duty Packaging tape. The dispenser is sturdy and as I would expect. The tape itself is thick and does appear to be heavy duty as in it sticks well and seems to adhere strongly. Easy to roll, easy to cut using the attached cutter. The tape seems to adhere and hold strongly. I have had no issues with this tape and recommend it especially for packages.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this Scotch® Heavy Duty Shipping Packaging Tape to seal a package containing a birthday gift. It was easy to dispense and felt substantial in a way that I trusted it to do the job. The package arrive safe and sound.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tape is very strong and held together several heavy boxes. The dispenser was very helpful and made taping easy since no one was around to help! I would definitely recommend this tape to anyone who needed to seal a package.

I buy t his all the time to seal my packages. I don't know how many times the tape keeps tearing and I can't use it. I spent an hour this morning trying to get one started and it kept tearing in pieces. This happens all the time and I have to throw it away. This is the second one this month.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] when the clips that hold my cartridge on vacuum broke and dust went every where, i tape it closed to the vacuum and wall-a was back doing my cleaning and is still holding,but the nicest thing was how easy it was to stretch across and seal and tear at the point that they needed and i had three layer tape patch not just for sealing packages anymore

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heavy duty shipping tape works very well when taping up boxes and packages. It holds securely onto the cardboard. The dispenser with cutter helps cut the tape quickly and evenly. The dispenser is good to hold and handle while taping boxes.

My company has been using this tape exclusively for years - tens of thousands of packages shipped - and loved the small size, ease of use and quality of what this tape USED to be. Over the past few months, the tape changed - it now says "40 times stronger" and feels very different (thinner and slicker), which would be fine except that when the "new" tape is used on standard kraft shipping boxes it doesn't stay stuck!!! Really 3M? What the heck good is shipping tape that comes untaped on its own from shipping boxes??? Extremely disappointed in the changes to this product and that we are going to have to switch to another type of tape.
