What Customers Are Saying
The glue gun has a mix of positive and negative feedback. On the positive side, it heats up quickly, provides good glue flow and control, and is well-made and durable. The large glue stick capacity is also convenient. However, the stand is flimsy and unstable, the glue stick feeding mechanism can be problematic, and there are reports of the nozzle leaking or dripping excessively. Additionally, some units failed to heat up or work at all. Overall, the glue gun seems to work well for many, but the design and quality control issues can be frustrating for some users.

Good, affordable tool
Would RecommendGood quality and affordable. It won't last forever but you'll get plenty of consistent hours out of it. Have had a couple over the last decade and they are a solid option.

Short of expectations
It heats the glue but the trigger does not dispense it consistently as it should. Also, the front tab/protector worked fine but the the trigger is too narrow for it to act as a brace to hold the gun up…Arrow needs to develop a wider trigger or better back stand for the gun to remain upright…I constantly had to keep trying to getting it to stand correctly, which made it more difficult to glue the items together before the glue hardened. In fact, I had to pull apart 2 of the portions that i had ...

Good versatile glue gun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall it’s a good hot glue gun for a variety of projects . I bought to use for simple crafting and a little bigger projects. So far I like it. Like stated before the stand isn’t as stable as I’d hope. The glue gun gets knocked over easily.

Gun Won't Stay Upright / Poor Feed Mechanism
Would Not RecommendThis gun is being returned. I bought this glue gun (TR550) partially based on the reliability of the Arrow brand. Unfortunately, this gun is barely usable. The feed mechanism is weak (too many trigger pulls required to feed glue stick), but the biggest issue it the mounting stand. Unless the power cord is perfectly positioned, the gun will not stay upright and tips over due to the pointed bottom of the handle. When using the gun, it just became easier to lay the gun on the side rather than ...
