> 24 hourThe adhesive does not stick well to cardboard boxes. I am constantly having to apply some super glue between the tape and the cardboard box to prevent the tape from coming loose or detached.

> 24 hourThis is amazingly string tape and must have for move. Its 3inch wide and strong so you just need 1 layer and save on tape. I tried it after using duck, scotch and gorilla tape from walmart. Very well priced for set of 6

> 24 hourAs the title states, the tape is thin and the adhesive is very spotty for some reason. Spotty like the adhesive was dripped onto the tape surface. Actually looks dirty as you peel it from the roll to apply it. Also it constantly splits when peeling from the roll which was very frustrating. I would have returned it but I already started using it and then switched to a different brand tape that was of better overall quality. The 5 unused rolls are just going to be tossed. Waste of money in my opinion. Better to stick with the name brands if you want quality.

> 24 hourI have been using Duck brand for a long time and decided to try this because its cheaper and I was going to be using a lot. But although the mils on both are supposed to be the same this feels thin and cheap and harder to handle

> 24 hourI was looking for some good tape to go along with my Uline H-325 and Uline H-596 tape dispensers, both of which only support tape that is 3 wide with a 3 core (which is surprisingly hard to find) but luckily Tape King pulled through and had some available on Amazon so I didnt need to pay Uline prices for tape which are insanely high. Ulines comparable tape is the S-1893 which is 2.6 mil thick vs Tape Kings 2.7 mil thick tape and each roll of Ulines tape is 3 x 55 yds vs Tape Kings 3 x 60 yds so your getting a little more with Tape King in each category and the costs comparison is $4.65 per roll of Uline tape vs $2.57 per roll of Tape Kings tape and its more easily available for sale on Amazon where I dont have to have extra shipping expenses since its available with Prime. The Tape King tape that I received looks crystal clear to me and didnt have any strong chemical smell like some of the other reviewers mentioned where they received tape with strong chemical smell and yellow tape instead of crystal clear. The only reason I gave it 4/5 stars is because the quality seems to be inconsistent and the tape feels a little thin for 2.7 mil thickness. Some of the tapes that I received in the 6 pack split in half around the middle easily when looking for the edge to put it in the tape dispenser while other rolls stayed together pretty well. The thickness of the rolls seems pretty consistent but still a little thin for my taste, its too bad the next level up in thickness is rather expensive per roll. Pros -------------- + Fits both the Uline H-325 and Uline H-596 tape dispensers. + True 3 wide core and 3 wide rolls of tape. + 5 more yards of tape, 0.1 more mil of thickness, for $2.08 less per roll than Ulines comparable tape (at the time of my review). + More easily available than Uline tape since Tape King is fulfilled by Amazon. Cons -------------- - The tape feels kind of thin for 2.7 mil thickness. - The quality seems inconsistent, some reviewers mentioned strong chemical smell, other reviewers mentioned yellowish color. - I experienced some rolls of tape splitting across the middle when I was looking for the edge to set it up in the tape gun, for 2.7 mil thickness tape I expected better. Conclusion -------------- While im not too sure about the quality and consistency of Tape Kings tape in real life applications vs the paper specs yet it certainly seems like a good bargain so far. If the quality of Tape Kings tape holds up well I will make it my go to tape whenever I need more tape for my Uline tape dispensers.

> 24 hourThe quality of the tape is good, and I love the 3” width—you can’t find that in stores. But holy moly, 6 rolls is a lot of tape. I gave away half to family members. Still worth it!
