False description, non-conductive adhesive.
"both sides of the Eco-Fused Premium Adhesive Copper Foil Tape are conductive."This is a false statement, tested multiple times and adhesive is non-conductive. Misled customers to buy product making incorrect statement.

Good quality. Easily soldered to. Confirmed conductivity
Using this to make DIY capacitive touch pads for an ESP32/Arduino project (see photos showing wire soldered to a rectangular copper pad made from this tape and an adhesive copper pad stuck directly to the inside of a polycarbonate enclosure).Solders easily with standard multicore lead solder and the solder heat (using here 305 deg C) does not distort the copper or bubble the adhesive on the back with short periods of soldering - the heat quickly spreads evenly throughout the thermally conductive copper rather than melting the adhesive directly below. Works really well for soldering to and solder flows nicely on the copper surface.Adhesive on the back is strong and will reliably stick to polycarbonate project enclosure box sides without lifting or curling at the edges. Polycarbonate has a reasonably high surface energy and I would expect the tape to stick well to similarly high energy surfaces.An ideal low cost tape for RF shielding on projects or for making things like capacitive contact pads. Not too thin and holds its shape when you come to stick it to something. It may crease slightly when removed from the backing, particularly if mishandled, but is easily smoothed out when applying to get it looking flat again. Tests with continuity meter confirm the adhesive is conductive, I measured about half an ohm from front through to the adhesive back so you could layer and overlap multiple strips of tape inside an enclosure to provide shielding to all sides.Recommended.

Great stuff for guitar shielding.
This tape works well for shielding guitar cavities. Easy to cut to shape and the backing paper peels off easily. The copper tape without the backing has a tendency to roll up and stick to itself so it takes a bit of practice. Sticks to surfaces really well - smoother surfaces best, but will stick to the rougher wood too. Also stick to pick guards well. Overlapping the tape gives good electrical continuity, so can be used to make bridged front and back cavity Farraday cage shielding for strats, etc. Have used it on a refurb of an 80s super-strat, and a traditional style "partscaster" build - works great on both. Seems to work quicker and better than the conductive paint stuff which is generally too much of a faff to bother with. Will use this stuff on all my builds going forward. Recommended.

Sturdy guitar shielding with conductive adhesive
I'm using this for guitar control cavity shielding.Easy to cut and works well. Quite sturdy and resists tearing when you're working with it.The adhesive is conductive, but sometimes needs a firm press to make sure. Good adhesive too, sticks well with no peeling.Definitely made a difference in a noisy Zemaitis with unpotted pickups, and a few other guitars with shielding paint that is sometimes not the best.To be honest it's now a bit of an obsession, I've done other guitars now that didn't even need it!I can say though, I haven't had a problem with slugs in any of my guitars with this as shielding ;-)

(Sort-of) Slug Repellant
The weather has been miserable for the most part this year, and the slugs are rampant. I've had four courgette plants eaten completely, so I wanted to see if I could deter them with copper tape. It's still quite early to tell how effective it is, but the quality of copper tape for price seems decent. I struggled to get some at a decent price last year. Slugs are definitely still getting over (I might put a second strip around my raised beds) but I think some are being deterred. It wasn't meant to be a perfect solution, but if it helps at all I'll be overjoyed.

Great value for money, very effective product.
We bought this as a preventive measure to stop slugs and snails from eating our plants in plant pots and planters.The tape is self -adhesive with a backing paper which you pull off. So far I have used it in planters and plant pots and is working well.After putting the tape on, I left it a couple of days before treating the planters apot with nematodes to ensure freedom from the dreaded beasties!
