Review on Self Adherent Wrap Athletic Non Woven Sports & Fitness by Bob Novitsky

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not the same quality or size

I am very disappointed in the quality of this adhesive sheet. I bought it about a year ago and I liked it so much that I didn't hesitate to buy it again when I needed more. First I noticed a difference in the packaging (formerly in a nice box, now in a resealable plastic bag), but that's not critical. However, the thickness of the rolls differed significantly. The pipe it was wrapped around used to have an inside diameter of 1 inch, now 1/16 inch smaller. If the tape had the same thickness, this would result in more turns around the tube, making the measurement of the tape around the tube thicker. However, the thickness of the "new" strap is almost 1/8 inch thinner! Either there aren't as many wraps as advertised, or the quality and gauge have been heavily altered, or maybe both. I used a newer one today. and it is clearly inferior. Not only is this material much thinner, it also doesn't stick well. Very disappointed that I paid the same price for much less material and quality.
