Great! This is strong but comfortable. It lasts 1/2 a day for me. It probably lasts longer, but I change it at that point.

This tape was terrible, I'd give it zero stars if I could. It isn't very sticky and doesn't stick well at all. Also it doesn't shape well so unless you're putting it on a flat part of skin like the top of your hand it doesn't want to shape to a curve. We were trying to put it on the cheek area and couldn't get it to adhere or shape there.

The product is pretty great, I had tested a lot of different tapes due to skin irritation and this was one that worked well. After 3 weeks of use, I switched to Johnson and Johnson Version as it has worked better for me. I would highly people check this out to determine what is better suited for them.

Bad Dispenser Design
4 out of 5 stars
Would not recommend
Mahee - 8 months ago
As others have said, I'm extremely disappointed with the dispenser design. Unlike the usual way to dispense tape, this one requires the sticky side to go over a solid piece ... and it sticks there. BAD because you either pull off too much or too little tape then have to unstick the tape from the dispenser top and roll the tape back and try again, only to find it's stuck on the top again. Very disappointed with my first purchase of this product due to the dispenser design. The tape is great, would buy it again, BUT the dispenser design means I won't and will have to find a different product.

The dispenser is convenient and the tape works well but my skin is very red from it. Also leaves a lot of residue. I found the Johnson & Johnson brand to not irritate my skin, or leave adhesive residue, but it doesn’t stick as well. 😣

PLEASE bring back the 3/4" or even make a 1/2" tape. The 1" tape is too wide for most of my needs. I would give the 3/4" or narrower tape a 4* rating.

hummy - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Previous to purchasing this product, I was using the Nexcare 3/4" paper tape in the dispenser that looked like a tape dispenser. I really liked that dispenser, but Nexcare doesn't sell the 3/4 tape separately, so I had to get this 1" tape dispenser since it looks like they don't produce the 3/4" dispenser anymore. This product is flimsy, and doesn't have a back unless you leave the thin cardstock back on. Without the cardstock back, the tape is exposed, and I didn't really like that because it can attract dirt/dust. Since this tape is used mostly near wounds/open sores, I would've preferred a plastic back or something similar so that the tape is generally enclosed (similar to the 3/4" dispenser). I also feel like this dispenser will break if I grip it too hard. Sometimes I need to grip it harder in order to cut the tape on the teeth. This dispenser is more difficult to use because the tape sits on the top of the plastic dispenser as a way to hold the tape in place before cutting. However, this plastic portion that the tape sits on makes it very difficult to estimate how much tape you're going to cut off because you need to lift it off of the plastic to get tape off the roll. Thus, I've had numerous issues with pulling too much tape or too little tape off; I can't estimate how much tape I'm going to get. Never had that issue with the 3/4" dispenser. Please make a different dispenser for the 1" Nexcare paper tape.

This tape is very difficult to dispense and cut to size. Plus, it is anything but “gentle”, since pulling it off, even after soaking and soaping, nearly tore my stitches.

I read the reviews and did it anyway. This is the worse design in the history of engineering designs. There’s a design engineer somewhere reading these reviews and thinking we all must be wrong. We are NOT. You’re better off just ripping it yourself than trying to use this unusable mess of a tape dispenser. My office tape dispenser works better with this tape then this thing. It really is unbelievably bad. They had a perfectly good model before this —- why’d they attempt this? I know I’m beating a dead horse here but I can’t overstate how bad this thing is.

I don't know how this dispenser design was even approved. You bring the tape out the back end then lay it over the front (where it sticks to the dispenser) to tear it off. It's weird and inconvenient. Note that this tape is the 1" width.
