Tadpole Tape Cutter (Combo)

I purchased two of these multi-packs because they have helped me greatly. It's unfortunate that they are difficult to find for purchase nowadays.

So I work for the big orange hardware store and we have a lot of overhead space. Filled with pallets and stacked boxes. Pretty much everyone on the floor carries a roll with them. Ever since I bought this, my life has been so much easier when it comes to taping boxes. We use 2” clear packing tape and this little attachment fits right on, cuts with ease and most of the time keeps the tape sticking up so I can grab it again. The key is to put your thumb in the proper spot. The trick is to I do keep a little tab when I am not using it. In my opinion, its totally worth it, especially if you want something that weighs less than the tape, is super compact and makes your more efficient.

These are clever in design and easy to use. No bulky machine needed, since the "Tadpole Tape Cutter" actually attaches to the roll of tape. After trying this product, I bought multiples of each size. This is one of the best products created for handling the use of tape products.

Very nice product. It worked best on my masking tape roll! No more torn edges! Took a little while to figure out how to put the elastic around twice. The instructions were not clear, however, easy to figure out. I got it to work on the duct tape too, however, that requires a little more effort. However, duct tape it Difficult to tear as is! So anything to help that is good. Great videos on Youtube to help you understand the Technique required to do it well. I practiced a few times on each roll until I got the hang of it and it works well for me now! I am Happy to have them!

I looked at regular masking tape dispensers that were expensive and bulky. Came across this. I like it. Allows me to cut the tape easily and still store it in a drawer without using so much space. I can also throw the roll with the cutter in a bag and take it with me. Good value.I use masking tape to label leftovers in my fridge or to label bottles of breast milk. It's easier (to remove) and less expensive than using stickers.Update: two years later mine is still working great! Totally worth the money.

I am a Washi Tape user and have 100's of different size rolls. These Tadpoles fit all the sizes that I use on a regular basis. Very easy to attach to the tapes, and cuts nicely. I will probably get another set of them.

I just purchased the three-pack with different sizes and attached one to a roll of duct tape and one to a roll of masking tape. The instructions were not clear and I had to watch a YouTube video to properly attach it to the roll of tape. While it did work to cut both types of tape, I had difficulty getting both parts of the elastic to snap into the side slot that holds them. One snaps in, but the other I have to work real hard to get it to snap in. You also have to fiddle a bit to get it to the right tension so that it glides like it is suppose to. What I do like is that there are different sizes for different types of tape so you can attach them different sizes of tape kept in a draw for convenience without having a bulky dispenser that takes up a lot of room. This is good for those rolls of tape that get occasional use or when you have a bunch of different types of tape that you don't necessarily want to purchase a "dispenser" for, but want the convenience of not having to look for scissors or use your teeth. For something like packing tape that gets heavy use, I would still use the big tape dispenser just because it is easier and more reliable. I am also worried about the durability of the plastic and especially the elastic band, which will degrade over time if it doesn't break first. This will do for now until I find a better alternative.

This accessory is fantastic. Easy to put on, built sturdy, and makes it so easy to get clean cuts on strips of masking tape. I use masking tape for labeling IT devices and this makes it so quick and easy. The clean tears make for a cleaner look. Highly recommend.
