Great product
at first I couldn't understand how to load the tape to make it stick, so of course I had to hit the internet, once I seen it, then WOW it worked, we are always using tape like this, and now we don't have to fold the end, great product and works like a charm

HORRIBLE WASTE OF AN OLD LADY'S MONEY
I was trying to seal a box but the tape separated and peeled off at an angle and I was unable to start it again so I now have almost a full 40 yd of HD clear packaging tape THAT IS TOTALLY USELESS!

Thin & ANNOUING
HD CLEAR is the most annoying product‼️
Do you make clear tape in a thicker mil?
I Hate having to stop everytime this stuff breaks and try to get it going again. It’s SO thin it rips down the middle..

Junk Tape
Everytime I waste more tape. While Packing. Because of the poor quality, poor strength of the tape it breaks all the time when unraveling. I will Never use this tape or Company. Again.

Worse than useless
I bought a two-roll package and it is all useless, except maybe as paperweights. Impossible to unspool effectively: it splits every time I try to use it. Then it's a struggle to find the end and all but impossible to start again in one piece, and then it splits again, etc., etc. Last time I tried to use the shreds I managed to get off the spool some areas had no adhesi...

Response from Staples :
We are sorry that you had a bad experience using our packing tape, and can understand how frustrating this could be. If you can manage to get a solid corner up with your fingernail, then it helps to use your finger or thumb to roll up the edge diagonally from the corner until you get the full width of the tape to grasp and avoid shredding. Hope this helps!

POOR QUALITY SINCE RECENT CHANGE TO "RED" PACKAGE
Have used your GREEN packaged " HD CLEAR " packing tape for many years, with great success. Now you have changed to the RED packaged "HD CLEAR" packing tape...and it is clearly as thinner, poorer quality tape that rips easily....VERY DISSATISFIED! You clearly went to an inferior quality product....to save costs.....now you have lost a loyal customer.

Good thick tape
Got this a bit back and really liked how thick it was. Clearly not going to rip. Could likely hold heavy boxes together without the fear of everything falling out the bottom. A bit hard to cut without a sharp knife, but thats kind of the point. I'd buy again

We are all now professional box packers
For the past 1.5 years now, we've all become professional box packers and YOU NEED HITS DISPENSER as it makes online returns 100% easier. My favorite features are the foam handle and quality metal frame. It is easy to use and change out the tape. The tape itself is a little thin, but does the job for small boxes. If you are moving, or just living in a COVID world like m...

Great tape dispenser!
This tape dispenser has been super useful to me during my process of moving. It's easy to set up and the tape is super strong. Theres a plastic piece to cover the sharp edge when not being used which I also appreciate.

Super strong tape
I recently received Duck foam handle tape dispenser set. It was a little tricky to load the tape in the dispenser but I figured it out. The tape is super strong and durable. I packed up several boxes with ease. The tape is very strong and heavy duty, much better than other brands I’ve used in the past. I have already purchased more tape refills. I will definitely buy th...

Useful anytime you have something to tape
This tape dispenser is very useful for large projects, or anytime you need a free hand while taping something up. Works great for sealing boxes or other uses. The end of the tape stays in place and is ready to use, just slide it across the surface you want to apply tape and cut with the attached blade. The blade is sharp and protrudes, so do be careful when setting i...

Perfect
This came at the perfect time. My child was getting ready to move out. We got boxes taped up in a flash. Tape spread on perfect each time. No bunching. Also easy to find replacement tape rolls. The dispenser it a good weight, but to real heavy like some.

Fantastic!
This Duck Packaging Tape Dispenser is great! The cushioned handle is an added feature that should be standard on all packaging tape dispensers. It is much easier to use with the padding on the handle and it doesn’t hurt your hand. Taping a package or box is easier because you have more control over the tape dispenser and the package at the same time. The best thing abou...
