Broke on FIRST use! Eats glue sticks.

When I received this little glue gun, I had high hopes for it. I do a lot of needlework and needed a new gun just to use for fabric glue. Unfortunately, when I received it, there were no instructions with it, although it was nicely packaged in a small shell. When I inserted the mini Surebonder glue stick, it immediately started dripping out of the nozzle before I even started my project. When I pulled on the plunger, assuming I had to do that because I saw the video above, the little handle…

Just grab a regular glue gun and save yourself the hassle.

I really wanted this product to be as great as it looked and so I waited while using it a few times to write this review. I love the design and how the glue gun (pen?) feels in my hand. I also like that the force required to press the button is much less than a traditional glue gun. However, the hassle of pulling out the pins to get a pressurized glue stick to use the button isn't easy and mostly pulls out the second stick, forcing you to push the stick all the way down by pushing the button…

Pros
  • Tape, Adhesives & Fasteners
Cons
  • Not trendy

How: The shape of the gun makes it easy to use in close quarters combat and includes features that most other guns offer. so nothing special. Dislikes: The protective cover on the discharge nozzle that all other brands (but one) have that prevents the gun from being used to redistribute or smooth out hot glue that has already been applied. The impossibility of shaping the applied hot glue prevents it from being used in more than half of the projects I've done over the years. Ordinary projects…

Pros
  • Office and school supplies
Cons
  • I will add later
