Great quality tape dispenser. I had my original one of this brand for years and it was an absolute staple on birthdays and Christmases when I was wrapping presents. The blades stay sharp, the weighted bottom means that it doesn’t tip over and you can use it one handed and I liked the baby pink colour in my office. Very easy to replace the tape and seems to work with any standard role of tape from the shop as the inside wheel is slightly smaller on one side which means you can push the role onto it until it’s wide enough that it stays nice and tight. The only reason I have to replace was because my daughter dropped it on one of her many occasions of stealing it for her craft work and broke the pin which holds the tape in the dispenser. Unable to find it, I couldn’t fix it so had to buy another but went straight back for the one I bought a couple of years before. It’s a good size without being too bulky, it cuts tape perfectly, it grips onto the table without sliding about everywhere, the colour looks nice, fits Most generic office Sellotape sizes and good value!

First off, the "Heavy Duty" label seems to fit. This dispenser has a good bit of weight to it, which is exactly what I was after. It doesn't slide around when you're pulling off a piece of tape one-handed, which is a massive improvement over lightweight ones. The base is non-slip, and it stays firmly put on my desk. The black colour is smart and doesn't look out of place in a home office or a more formal setting. Using it is straightforward. Loading the tape is easy, and the cutting blade is nice and sharp, giving a clean cut without too much effort. It takes standard-sized tape rolls, and the two included rolls were a nice bonus to get started with, though they were just basic clear office tape – good enough for general use, but you might switch to your preferred brand once they're done. I'm not entirely sure what the "500" in the name refers to, as "1540" seems to be the main model identifier I've seen for this Rapesco heavy-duty style. The overall build feels pretty robust. It’s mostly plastic, but it’s thick and feels like it can withstand a fair bit of daily use and the odd knock. Pros: Heavy and Stable: This is its biggest advantage. The weighted base means it stays put on the desk, allowing for easy one-handed tape dispensing. Sharp Cutting Blade: Provides a clean and easy cut, which is very satisfying. Easy to Load and Use: Standard design that's simple to get the hang of. Durable Build Quality: Feels solid and well-made for a desk dispenser; should last a good while. Comes with 2 Tape Rolls: Handy to have a couple of rolls included to get you going straight away. Smart Appearance: The black colour looks neat and professional on a desk. Cons: Bulkier Size: Being heavy duty and weighted, it naturally has a larger footprint than a small, lightweight dispenser. If desk space is extremely limited, this might be a consideration. Quality of Included Tape is Basic: The free tape rolls are fine for everyday stuff but aren't premium quality. You'll likely use your preferred brand once they run out. Plastic Roller for Tape Core: The central roller that holds the tape is plastic. While it seems fine, some ultra-heavy-duty dispensers might use metal here for ultimate longevity, but for most office/home use, this is perfectly adequate. Blade May Dull Over Very Long Term: Like any cutting edge, with extensive use over many years, the blade might eventually lose some of its sharpness, but it seems pretty robust for now. Overall: If you're in the UK and tired of chasing your tape dispenser across the desk, the Rapesco 1540 (or 500 series, as this one was also badged) Heavy Duty Tape Dispenser is a really solid investment. Its weighted base is a game-changer for one-handed operation, the cutter is sharp, and it feels built to last for typical home or office use. It’s a simple tool, but a good one makes a surprising difference to those little everyday tasks. This Rapesco model does the job reliably and without fuss. A definite upgrade from a basic, lightweight dispenser, and good value with the included tape rolls.

Perfect, good quality, heavy and sturdy, very stable, sharp to cut tape, had it in blue but it fell from a top of a cupboard and broke, which is fair so had to buy a new one

A very good product it’s not lightweight, works well. it doesn’t move around a lot and the sellotape is very good quality.

This tape dispenser is heavy and feels solid and durable and sits firmly on my desk without any movement, or sliding about. It comes with 2 rolls of tape which fit into the dispenser and with a sharp cutter, the tape rips off easily and neatly. It is very easy to dispense the tape, and the compact size does not take up too much space. I think this is excellent value. It looks good and works well.

I bought this for my at home office, great super sturdy dispenser

ATTENTION !!!!!!!, il ne s'agit pas de 500 rouleaux mais de 2 (deux) rouleaux et d'un dévidoir qui ,par ailleurs est d'excellente qualité: Mais , bon, la façon de présenter le produit frise l'escroquerie. Je m'étonne qu'Amazon laisse passer de telles pratiques.

Vino bien protegida sin daño es bonita y esta algo pesada..

Sehr schöner Abroller für große aber schmale Klebebänder. Auch passend schwer, so dass er auf dem Tisch beim Abrollen nicht verrutscht. Genauso habe ich es mir vorgestellt. Ich habe leichtklebendes Malerkrepp drauf, dass beim Abziehen von der Klebefläche keine Schäden hinterlässt. Ich bin Hobbyzeichner und klebe damit auf Zeichenpapier. Mit dem Abroller kann ich auch kleine Stücke abziehen

J'étais contente de trouver un dévidoir pour les rouleaux 19mm * 66m. Avant d'ouvrir, je me suis qu'il était bien lourd et que par conséquent, il resterait bien en place sur le bureau. Par contre, j'ai déchanté en ouvrant la boîte car il est cassé à plusieurs endroits près de la lame et d'autres morceaux sont prêts à tomber. Dommage ! Par contre, il était bien livré avec deux rouleaux comme annoncé dans le descriptif.

Heavy, black, tape dispenser. Exactly as ordered.
