Useless and cheapl made

Would Not Recommend

It doesn’t work. Is useless and will make you mad trying to make it work. The paper doesn’t align with tape and tape ends up jumping off the paper. Is cheaply made and will not recommend it all. Don’t but

Doesn't work very well

Would Not Recommend

It's great when the tape and paper roll are full. When the paper is half empty there is nothing that keep tension on the paper and falls out of alignment with the tape. Spent more time fixing it than using it

Bad design

Same as all the other reviews. Only 2-3 feet dispenses before tape walks off the paper. Company replies recommend pushing the tape and flush with the wall. This is possible in like 2% of the situations in painting. Make your product work better, ScotchBlue!

Unusable

Would Not Recommend

This thing sucks. I should have dropped the extra $20 for the nicer one. The frame is flimsy and warps, the overlap between the tape and the paper is about a quarter inch, and it will separate under the slightest bit of stress. On top of that, the handle is meant for people with tiny tiny hands. If I wasn't painting just one room and nearly done masking it I would return this.

Decent for occasional projects

Would Recommend

Takes a little bit of finessing with 1.88” tape as it has a tendency to twist and misalign with the paper

Works pretty good

Would Recommend

It works pretty good with masking and the extension piece holds the larger paper on well but if you pull too fast or at an angle the tape will come off the paper and it can be a pain to get it back right.
