Honestly I have this exact one and if definitely sucks at cutting. So funny to see the tape struggling to roll out in the promo video just like my experience with it too.
It works! Thank you so much for this video! I am up making boxes to send out vintage goods, and I couldn’t remember how to get the tape on the scotch tape dispenser. Thanks again so very much!🎉
yes I have one but I could not get it to work. I thought it must be me, but it just does not work. Looks like everyone has realized it does not work. I dont understand 3 M is a great company, I really dont know how they would allow it to be sold like this.
Blade doesnt come out far enough to make this efficient. Love it when Design Engineers dont have to use their own products ....same goes for doing vehicle Engine Repairs/Maintenance
Yeah I'm packing stuff right now with it and it's trash. I've had a job using these before and you def want one that HOLDS the loose tape in place afterward
So, they stop the video short of cutting the tape, because the safety mechanism is flawed. Simple solution to turn this dispenser into a working one by disengaging the safety mechanism. Proceed at your own risk. Remove the two screws attaching the clear plastic safety plate. DISCARD the clear plastic plate. Remove the two screws holding the blade in place. Remove the spring. It's aggravating but can be done without the removal of any more screws. DISCARD the spring. Replace the blade. Replace the two screws that attach the plastic plate, but WITHOUT the plastic plate. With the plastic plate removed the screws are long enough to engage the round bar behind the plate which holds the blade mechanism forward. When you are done you should have a working dispenser.
Thank you. This was the only thing that enabled this device to work- after we finally managed to remove one of the screws on the blade that was apparently stripped by the factory.
Man.. thank you! Setting the blade to always out, turning the tension way up, and a quick side to side / rocking motion to pierce the tape and it works like a charm now.
It would be really helpful if you actually showed that the tape feeds between the lower hinged metal flipper and the black rubber roller. I cant believe that this video fails to show that step.
What happens after 0:20 to continue loading the tape all the way? It's just hanging out below the roller. How do we get the tape over and behind the roller?
I had no problem loading these a few years ago when I was moving. Now I cannot get the threading. Do I have to put speed on super slow? What happened to my mind or dispenser? ( You can ditch the music).
I have been using tape guns for 40 years and was excited to find one with the padded handle. WORST tape gun ever! I cannot even write a review for it at the store I bought it from. The blade design sucks. You can see by the video the woman was having trouble using it too.

This is the worst tape dispenser ive ever used in my life

There is a very small red plastic guard over the blade. No one mentions that just pull forward and it will come off.
This is so helpful! Nowhere else mentioned this and I felt like such a moron for not realizing. Thank you so much

Yeah the tape doesn't cut off. Read comments don't buy this doesn't work
Do not buy this tape dispenser. What a piece of crap. Nothing holds the tape in place after cutting so it flaps around. Awkward to operate.

I just now I get and I wich I read this before I get it

Which is a better alternative without
going thru all the baloney?

Do not buy this garbage!! It doesn’t hold the tape it’s just a waste of money and time
returning tomorrow at walmart. it does not cut lol
My blade doesn't move
U didn't mention where is the sticky side facing
Show me this thing doesn’t work without telling me it doesn’t work
It doesn't cut the tape but your finger that's why the camera stopped just there. Or may be I was high when I was using it. IDK (:
There's no baloney. I'll show on my channel
thanks so much!!!
Doesn’t work I thought it was me..
Thumbs down. Literally showed every step less the one step needed.
I cannot use it and it is very awkward as it doesn’t cut or really work. I do not understand 3 M followers either as I have had zero joy with this.
Mine works just fine
Can you do a tutorial on how to properly use it please 🙏
Do you work for the company?
⚠️HOW TO MAKE IT WORK⚠️
While it still sucks, if you move left and right with it while applying pressure it will cut.
What horrible experience, I might as well just use scissors
This is too complicated. I can't do anything right.
This is waste of money. The blades do not extend far beyond to cut the tape.
Worst tape dispenser
Another pointless video
Ditto
Tracking number self destruct
These guns in general don’t work
Horrible product, the postal service has a good one, but that's not for sale.
Skipped right past the part where the tape is cut. this product is hot garbage. It's like they are scamming people.
we got this tape dispenser and it is literally the worst. it doesn’t cut, the tape slides out, it’s wasn’t designed smartly. do not recommend buying.
should have listened to the comments first lol

That one's junk
This product is a steaming pile of garbaggio. Surprisingly I got it to work, but dear god both it and the instructions are terribad.
What a piece of crap. It is going back.
I have had a scotch tape dispenser before. This one stinks!!! 😬😮💨😩
Waste of money
garbage product. doesn't hold tape end or cut it. money wasted.
The most idiotic design tape dispenser, God's design is far far better and efficient - our hands :P
This tape gun/dispenser is complete garbage. Wastes a lot of tape each time you finish or start a new taping operation. Garbage!
This is the WORST TAPE DISPENSER EVERRRRRRRRRRR!
Why are all the instructions for this shitty😢
Blade is terrible do not spend the money on this junk
