I package up a lot of boxes every month, but it took me a long time to find something that would make my life easier. When I looked at the different models, they all looked so heavy and clunky. I wanted something that would make packing up boxes easier - not harder.
I settled on this product because its price was about right for my budget, and it had good reviews. After using it for only a few boxes, I was already won over. This product is great. It is not at all heavy or clunky to use - I can grip the handle quite comfortably and get my boxes taped up in about 1/4 of the time it used to take me. I was very surprised by how light it is - considering its size (it does look a little bulky) this is not at all as heavy as I feared it might be.
It isn't so good for smaller boxes, because the overall size of this product makes it difficult to use when the box is a small size. But most of the boxes I pack are at least 10x10x10, and this product is just perfect for them. It is easy to load a new roll of tape when needed and the device holds the tape very securely and rolls the tape smoothly onto a box when you want to secure it. I never feel like the tape roll will come loose when I am using this product. The blade is very sharp - but I haven't cut myself on it once, nor do I worry about doing so. The only downside is that sometimes the edge of the tape can get a bit tangled up and can't be used.
Overall: Great product. Definitely a good buy.
