WOD SNC-289N 2" Mousetrap Low Noise Carton Sealing Packaging Tape Silent Gun Dispenser with Safety Blade Cover - Ideal for Noise Sensitive Environments: Fits Up to 2 in. Wide (Holds 3 Inch Core)

TL;DR: Great quality tape guns. No complaints!A little backstory of how I got here..For the first several months of selling on various e-commerce platforms, I was using a different brand of tape gun that I absolutely hated (pictured, far right on second picture). It was the traditional style of tape gun, with the tape roll attached to a spinning piece and a center knob to adjust the tension.I was beyond frustrated because it was very loud and the tape constantly needed re-adjusting. The tape would slide off the edge of the gun - causing the tape to fold over while dispensing. A majority of the time, the tape did not lie flat on my packages, which was very frustrating. This not only was an eyesore, but a waste of time and tape, as I had to use double the tape to ensure the package was sealed properly. I tried several different types of tape, but still had the same poor results. Eventually, I just chalked it up as a design flaw.Fed up, I went back on Amazon to find a different tape gun that wouldn’t give me the same issues. I decided to try this tape gun and I am so happy that I did!It dispenses and cuts perfectly, and is definitely more quiet than other tape guns that I’ve used. I bought the larger one for 3” wide tape first, and loved it so much that I returned and bought the 2”.I’ve been using them daily for the past 3-4 months and they’ve been holding up well, so I don’t think there is going to be a problem with their durability.I honestly couldn’t be happier with the performance of these tape guns. If I could go back and change anything, I probably would have gotten rid of my old one and bought these ones sooner.

I own a retail shipping store and we 2 of these upfront by the registers. When we use these I can hear my customers!! I have bought 4 of these and they don't break. These are awesome!

I never realized how a tape gun can make a difference in the noise the tape makes when dispensing, i pack a lot of boxes and this gun makes 50% less noise than the standard type of gun. It is a little difficult to load the tape, but this is the gun, dont bother with anything else.

The thick double wall body is rigid and the strongest yet. The rubber roller is a little undersized, requiring finess to get the tape to stick first try. The teeth safety cover works well. The handle has a little give in a strong grip, it does not feel fragile. The balance is aligned with the axis through the vertical grip.Overall 4/5Preferred instead of economy single wall dispensers.

I really like this tape gun. You have to remember to put the tape all the behind the bottom roller in order for it to be silent, if you skip it, it will still work fine, and even be a bit quieter than other dispensers, but just have to put in the extra work to get it loaded right.It also seems to work better on some rolls than others, so try different tapes. Overall it's awesome with any roll.

Convenient, quiet, light enough, sturdy - even though yellow safety tab broke off on one of them (snap in half by fingers lifting the tab after dropped it once),but the tape gun is sooooo good to use, I am buying 3 more of the same !!! Even if the tab will snap in half again, I am keeping that gun!!!Be careful not to cut the fingers, always close the yellow safety tab after use.

I'm using 3" core 3" tape & it won't move! I followed the video but the tape is barely fitting in the dispenser & won't budge.

I bought this because of its “low noise” feature, but I didn’t realize how much I smooth pulling packing tape could be. It was as effortless as pulling scotch tape! Also, it’s definitely “low noise.”

more quiet than any other one I tried
