Good quality tape
This is the good stuff. If you need tape that is easy to work with and don’t have time to be picking the tape edge from the roll every time you turn around, get this. 3M provided me a sample of this product.

Poor Adhesive
Don't waste your money. I was shocked at how poor quality this tape is. SHOCKED.

Worst Scotch Product for long term use.
I’ve been using Scotch tapes most of my life. This “sure start” tape is the first line I could never recommend! It sticks to paper just fine and is very easy to pull off the roll- BUT it does NOT stick to itself! Any slight bump or roll over will pull off all tape that has been taped to another piece of tape. I purchase approximately ten 6 packs per year. This “sure sta...

No good.
This product is no good. The guide tabs are too far from the blade, which means that the tape keeps falling away from the blade and having to be reset. I don't understand how anyone can like this product.

Quality Control going down the tubes!
I too have had strong faith is 3M products since that was pretty much the norm in our household since I was a child. I also use to work for a packaging company in Minnesota & I found they were extremally caring about how our packaging quality was. So I have been using their packaging tape for my shipments to customers for several years & this "sure start" is just horrib...

No more fumbling for the end!
What an improvement. I think we’re all used to online ordering. However, despite our best intentions some things still need to be returned. This tape starts easy even if I miss the end. It’s a one pass wonder. No more making multiple passes to seal up the packages. The dispenser has a nice sharp blade to cut the end. So glad to have received this free product in exchang...

Do not waste your money
This tape is easy to use as far as getting it off the spool but it DOESN'T stick to the box. I used this product and by the time I got to Fedex for shipping they made me re wrap and repackage because the tape would not stay attached to the package. I took the brand new roll and threw it away. Duct products work much better.

Awesome Product
I have used several tape dispensers and this is by far the smoothest one I’ve ever used. The tape pulls out very smoothly. It doesn’t stick to itself as you are reeling it out. It also adheres to surfaces very well. There is a little tab to put the cut end on so that it doesn’t go back onto the roll where it’s impossible to get it started again. I highly recommend this ...

High quality packing tape
I used this product to ship a box to a friend. It was a heavier quality tape that was easier to use than others I have used! I was able to find the end easier to get it started again and it tore easily. The only part was lifting it, it tore at the end and some got wasted but less than with other tapes. It was also quieter, which may sound weird but my son has some senso...

Tape works well and is easy to use.
Received this tape last month from 3m to review. The tape works very well. adheres to the boxes and keeps the box closed and secure. Easily comes off the roll to use. I have not had any problem with the tape rolling up when you try to use it.

Quiet Packing Tape - Easy to Unroll
I used this to seal a box for mailing. The dispenser was a little awkward to use, perhaps I have the tape feeding incorrectly. It seems the dispenser with the handle is easier to use. I do love the tape itself. It was quiet when I rolled it across the box and easy to roll.

Very high-quality tape
I received the tape from 3M and agreed to review it. It's genuinely the highest quality packing tape I've used in years. The adhesive is strong, the tape is thick, and I had no fear that the package would accidentally open in the mail. The "quiet unroll" feature was nice, too.

Perfect Tape
Tape is perfect width to seal boxes. Two of my children leave in different cities so I am always sending something to one of them. Tape is sticky enough to withstand abuse from package delivery personnel. Tape is priced well.

What a great tape & dispenser!
3M provided this product free to me for review. The opinion is all mine. What a great tape & dispenser. Making shipping a breeze! It was so easy to start the roll and the tape glides off the roll super easy. The adhesive is very strong. It made packing up my book very quick and effortless and I'm confident the strong quality of the adhesive will keep my package well sea...

So quiet!
I received this item for free in exchange for my review. This product does what it says. It comes with a tab at then beginning that you remove to start taping - I just left it hanging on the end and cut the tape where I needed it for my box. The tape left in the plastic holder hasn't gotten stuck back to the roll so I can't say much about whether or not it split. The be...

Good Packaging Tape!
I received this product free from 3M, in exchange for my honest review. I needed some packaging tape, so this product came along at exactly the right time! Unfortunately, I cannot give it a 5 star review. It was not "Sure Start", and I had to struggle to get the tape started and inserted into the dispenser. The packaging tape did unwind quiet and easy, and it was sturdy...

The best packaging tape!
The Scotch Sure Start Packaging tape is the best! It is easy to use, quiet, and efficient. Whether sealing a package to mail or sealing moving boxes it is so easy to use. I would highly recommend Scotch Packaging tape.

Best Packaging Tape
This tape is great to use on mailing packages and sealing a box up before storing it. The tape is easy to get off the reel and apply to a package. The sticky side has enough adhesive to keep large services closed and for a long time.

Great tape that isn't hard to start.
Scotch Sure Start Packaging tape was amazing! I used it to seal up some boxes that I needed to ship out and it did the job perfectly. I has absolutely no problem starting the roll of tape and when it eventually landed back on the roll (because they always do that) I had no problem restarting it! No weird tearing or stripping down the roll - just perfectly started with n...
