Perfect packaging
Perfect for wrapping even the largest packages. The red portion is easy to grasp and then tape comes out smoothly. Rarely gets stuck to itself

Pure nightmare! totally failed to hold.
We purchased this product a month ago and used it to seal boxes we were using to move. Everything looked great, until we went to move. The tape kept falling off of the boxes and the boxes were opening while being transported to and from the truck. It was a nightmare! We can't believe that what used to be the "best go to product in the business" fell apart as much as it ...

Nothing heavy duty about this tape. Horrible!
I am soooooo upset with this tape! I've been buying it for years and lately it is horrible! It simply won't stick to the boxes. Easily comes off. Doesn't keep it closed unless you use a ton of it! Hate it! Will never buy it again! I'd rate it zero but it doesn't let me.,

Terrible dispenser
It is good tape but the dispenser is terrible! Not worth the headache of trying to use it.

NIGHTMARE to get tape off roll
Three ibuprofens and hour later, still struggling to figure out how to release beginning of tape roll so I could start using it. There was no tab to pull on end of tape to get it started. There were no directions on package, either. Finally put roll under bright light and examined. There is an INVISABLE perforation that needs to be broken and tape then released. There w...

Great tape, help save the environment . . .
I love this tape but can not find the replacement tape for the dispenser. There used to be a box of 6 without the dispenser. Trying to save the environment by not buying the dispenser when I don't need one, just want the tape.

Failed Product and Maybe Brand
Zero - Maybe never buy Scotch again - the other tape items I bought performed OK, but this one Crazy-Fail. Will take back for refund. 3M / Scotch has been good brand for my 70 years ; this item is stunningly bad. Shame.

Worst tape ever
I recently purchased a role of the "heavyduty" shipping tape. In trying to use it in the disenser, it's bring nothing but a problem. The tape is so thin and cheap that it separates into shreads. It then becomes very difficult to pull all the pieces together and get back to a full width strip of tape. The role is now in the trash and I'll never purchase this product agai...

sturdy and dispense easily
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used it on a medium sized box with about a 5lb load. I like the convenient dispenser, glides on easily. The tape is wide enough and holds well. The box was sent from Maryland to Florida via USPS and was received in good condition. Happy with the quality.

Decent, heavy duty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the quality and strength of the tape. The only complaint I have is the strength and ease of use of the dispenser. Dispenser itself feels cheap and easily breakable. Otherwise a great value.

Super product!

I had a little difficulty figuring out how to work the dispenser but after I learned the device was very easy to use. The tape itself is very sturdy and sticky. Some of the boxes that I sealed were a little damp from the ...

It dispensed very easily and smoothly. This tape is strong enough to tape cartons of books with just one strip! The adhesive on the tape really holds. The other thing I like about this...

Great tape and dispenser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This packaging tape is as strong as is needed. One layer of it seals the seam. I used it on a smaller package I had to mail. And it is crystal clear. The dispenser works well and can be refilled. It could also be used to repair a box.

Great for Moving Boxes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping Tape on boxes for my recent move. It held together much better than I even expected, even on the bottom heavy boxes full of books. The dispenser made it super easy to use which was so nice in the hustle and bustle of a big move.

Love this tape!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free from 3M. It was so easy to use because it is a little thicker than the regular shipping tape and doesn't flip back on itself! i would definitely recommend this tape to everyone!

Love this one.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this from 3M for review. I love that the dispenser holds up to pressure without breaking. The tape is very strong and the adhesive very good without leaving a tacky feeling on my fingers if I touch it. I definitely recommend this product.

Definitely heavy duty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is super grippy. It is easy to tear from the roll. I used this to reinforce a cardboard box filled with heavy books for shipping. This is definitely universal on any surface. Very easy to handle.
