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

Bought in conjunction with a Scotch 3M tape dispenser (red metal and plastic gun type dispenser with foam covered handle). The combination was useless. Tape didn’t adhere very well, then tape could not be cut by the blade. The tape would not cut even when I tried to stretch against the fully deployed blade. Thus, poor tape adherence and then failure to cut resulted in a lot of tape everywhere except where needed. Disappointing.

I will not use any other brand because I want the security knowing that this will hold packages closed. I also use it for "Laminating" cards, medication list, etc. that I carry in my wallet.

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

Too big to handle well

It doesn’t work as well as the smaller ones. When you pull tape out it comes out much faster and you waste tape. Less control on distribution. However, the smaller size fits better in your hand and the quality of the tape is top notch!
NIGHTMARE to get tape off roll

Irritated - 10 months ago
originally posted on Scotch

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 was no way to know this on the package.

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.

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

Rondo - 1 year ago
originally posted on 3m.com

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 again.

This is the worst tape I have ever used for moving!!! Literally cones off brand new moving boxes in 10 minutes!! I will have to re-tape all boxes as the movers load them. I have had 3-4 tape strips on the bottom one direction and 1-2 the other. Same with the top. It still won’t stick. Even on empty boxes. There has to be a better tape out there!!!! I eclectic better from this company as their tape was wonderful on my last move. I do not have time to keep buying more tape and re-taping boxes!!! This is already a stressful time and this is adding to it!

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love to use Scotch Packing tape everytime I send a package to my kids for birthday's, christmas or just because. I rely on Scotch Packing Heavy Duty take because of it's strength and I know it will hold ad will not use anything else!!

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product as a sample for testing. I used this to box up materials for shipping. 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 rain and the tape held excellently. I will definitely buy this product as it met all of the criteria I look for when planning to seal and send packages.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used my Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping tape to mail a box. At first I didn't think the tape itself felt sticky enough to adhere properly to the box but after applying it I realized it was indeed sticky enough and would hold fast.
