BOMEI PACK 2Pack Reinforced Kraft Paper Tape, Self Adhesive Paper Gummed Packing Tape, for Heavy Duty Packing, Shipping, Moving and Storage, 2Inch55yds

This tape has good grip, and stays in place

I recycle my outgoing boxes, they aren’t always perfect this reinforcing tape is very sticky

Terrible product. Does not stick to itself AT ALL, so be careful how you tape a carton up with this stuff. It does stick to the cardboard quite well 'at first'...but after a day or so, it all came unstuck. I threw the whole pack away rather than risk my products to shipping with this junk.

As a warehouse worker in my youth, I've always preferred this kind of tape for packages. It's always stuck better, reinforces boxes, and hides seals. All that said, though, I'd never tried this particular brand, though. My wife had some shipments of clothing products in rather large boxes that needed to be sent to the Bahamas and to New York, and I wasn't interested in using the clear tape she uses for the smaller packages she sent. Especially those larger boxes that were going to leave the country. So I bought some of this tape because of my past experiences. I was initially impressed. The tape stuck well. There were a few small punctures in the boxes (we re-used some boxes) that were easily covered by the tape, which felt like a solid seal. I did immediately notice what others have complained about, that the tape wouldn't stick to itself. So if you cross tape (I like to put tape along the length of the box to seal the box, and then put a strip of tape across the width of the box as reinforcement), it latter tape does not stick to the prior tape. That wasn't really a deal-breaker for me, though, because that wasn't a stress point a the tape still stuck well to the sides and across the middle. Overall, I was fairly happy with the tape. The day after was another story, though. I got up the next morning and discovered that a lot of the tape on different boxes and come loose, and in several places which weren't stress points. On a few of the boxes the tape which I'd used long-ways to seal the fold-overs had come loose from the sides of the boxes. There were some edges I'd reinforced with the tape which had come up as well. All this surprised me, honestly, because the seal of the tape to the cardboard had felt very solid the day before. It says all that needs to be said that I will now be reinforcing these boxes with the plastic clear tape my wife typically uses, even though I bought this tape to avoid that. That says it all, I think. I'll be reinforcing this tape with other tape. That shouldn't be a thing. In this tape's defense, however, I will concede that some of the boxes we used were irregular, in that they weren't pristine new boxes and had some weaker spots in places. But I specifically bought this tape in the expectation that it could provide some reinforcement, like the similar tape I'd used in warehouses. On the new, perfectly squared up boxes that we used, the tape did quite well in most places. It says all that needs to be said, though, that a tape I bought to reinforce some boxes wasn't all that good at reinforcing anything. I could have just used the wife's standard plastic clear tape for all the good this tape did me. I hate to be hyper-critical, but I probably wouldn't buy this tape again. For me, that's all that needs to be said, really.

Tape is very sticky and works well to cover areas of writing when you recycle boxes. You cannot write on tape with marker - it has a slick finish. Very sturdy but not a paper tape.

Did not stick to package like it should. Came loose after 15 minutes to put clear tape over it to keep the tape on

The tape is not 3” is actually 2” 3/4” but the quality of the tape is good. The only complaint I have is that you if you gonna sale a 3” tape make it 3” thank you.

Tape works great. Nice and strong goes on easy and stays put.
