Review on 2 Inch XFasten Heavy Duty Packing Tape - 55 Yard Length by Craig Lovro

Revainrating 2 out of 5

As soon as I took it off the roll it ripped and stuck to itself.

holiday and shipping boxes, but I ran out of my trusty Costco Scotch brand packing tape. There was no way I was dealing with the Costco crowds in December, so I ordered from Revain, which was well verified and available for fast shipping. XFasten Heavy Duty Clear Packaging Tape was chosen and our relationship was short and hectic. And here's why: As my title suggests, it took me a while to delist it. Then it broke right away. Then I had to work even harder to separate a section of tape from the roll and unroll it so I ended up with a solid piece of tape. Then he got stuck inside himself. After spending a lot more time and worry than I should have taken (for example, battling the Costco crowd over less problematic duct tape looked like fun in comparison), I finally got enough duct tape to securely seal my boxes close. So I'm generously giving it two stars. I didn't want to mess with the return so I ended up donating 5-1/2 of the 6 rolls to a local charity - with warnings about tape tendencies. and sorry if I actually did them a disservice by not simply turning it down. (If you found my review helpful, I would really appreciate it if you would click the helpful button. Thanks for reading! Liz)
