Bubble wrap Duck vs. Scotch

Pros: - Perforations tear easily - Works well - Doesn't burst as easily as Scotch branded products Cons: - No dispenser - MUCH more expensive than the Scotch brand. I have bought both the Duck brand (online) and the Scotch brand (offline). Duck Brand didn't include a dispenser box (a dispenser box is surprisingly useful when you're packing a lot). Duck Brand was a few dollars more expensive (16 for 150ft) than Scotch (14 for 250ft). The tape is more transparent. That being said, Duck Brand tears more easily without popping nearby bubbles or leaving jagged edges, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, if you pick it up in a handful and squeeze it, it won't burst as easily. The tape tears very easily. Given the huge difference in price ie $0.10 per foot (duck) vs $0.06 per foot (scotch) I don't know if I would recommend whiskey duck. If you're packing a large amount of stuff (like a 2+ bedroom house) I'll probably just buy more whiskey and use it. If you live in the middle of nowhere and still need it delivered, I might go with Duck. Hence one star for the price. Otherwise it's a good package. Note: I shipped a 3 bd+ house with artwork halfway across the country (1300 miles) and none of my items were damaged. Good enough.

Pros
  • Nylon seal with Air Lock technology for longer air retention and better item protection
Cons
  • Vanish
