> 3 dayThis item does not work as well as the Wrap Master, however, you have no choice but to buy it if you want to purchase the larger rolls of Stretch-tite which do not fit in the Wrap Master. It is much less expensive to buy the larger rolls of Stretch-tite and this dispenser holds those rolls. The lid is not designed well and the place where you grip the plastic wrap is not easy to get at. It is to close to the lid. Because of the lid design, it does not cut as well for ME. It say for me, because I am 72 and I have arthritits very bad in my hands, so that may be a contributing factor. Younger people may not have a problem. With that being said, manufactures need to be aware that America is aging. The baby boomers are now retiring, and they are the largest generation ever, the generation coming after them is smaller. So, manufacturers need to be aware, we are the ones who have the time to cook the big family dinners on the holidays etc, and we are the ones who are using all the items that are suppose to make life easier. This device does not make life easier for me because of its poor design.

> 3 dayI purchased this item to replace an old one that finally broke (although it was still useable). the first one I had, I owned for over 10 years. I liked it so much that I ordered 3 for gifts for other people. My first one was given to me as a gift. This looks like the exact same item that I just received. I use it to rewrap all kinds of food and to cover bowls of things (like potato salad for example). I am concerned that the product I am using in the dispenser is not biodegradable and I am hoping in the future it will be. For now however I am very happy with this item. It is brand new so I cant talk about how good it is long term but the last one I had lasted over 10 years as mentioned.

> 3 dayHow many times have you fought with the plastic wrap while trying to put away leftovers? How frustrating has this been for most of us? VERY frustrating is my answer. Didnt you ever dream of a machine that would solve the plastic wrap problems-ALL OF THEM? DREAM NO MORE! This has got to be one of, if not the best, non-powered kitchen appliances I have ever seen. Actually, this fits the description of MACHINE perfectly: an apparatus using or applying mechanical power and having several parts, each with a definite function and together performing a particular task. Whoever designed this product realized that something that needs to function in a specific way need not be complicated, nor does it need to be expensive. Add to this an instruction sheet that was so simple, even a caveman can do it. Took me the best part of 5 minutes to put my roll of Stretch-tite in the housing, set it up and begin dispensing. It took me this long because I ignored the most important instruction-the first sentence that says Beware the cutting blade hidden in the lid. It is very sharp and will cut easily or words to that effect. Thats exactly what happened. I could hear the JAWS music in the background and the machine saying See, I warned you! (Please see my pictures and commentary on the product page.) After the successful first aid treatment, it was ready to go. This machine is so simple and easy to use I almost didnt believe it. The RARE and COVETED FIVE STAR RATING. I highly recommend this product but need to add a few things. FIRST-follow all the instructions. It is supplied with two snap-on feet with non-slip material and is designed to be used on the counter or other flat surface. ONLY use the machine with Stretch-tite plastic wrap, and make sure youre feeding it from the back forward, not the other way around or it wont dispense properly. Trying to use it with any other wrap, aluminum foil, wax paper, etc. will simple ruin the cutting blade. DO NOT try to pickup the machine by the lid when it is opened or you will discover how sharp the cutting blade is. And lastly, dont overthink the instructions. I tend to think things are more complicated than they really are. This is EASY. With a little practice youll be off to the races in nothing flat. And remember, plastic wrap can be used for so many other things besides food. HAPPY WRAPPING!

> 3 dayWorks great. Saves me a lot of money on zip loc bags. I bake a lot of bread. When the loaves are large, I make large sandwiches. Regular baggies are never large enough, and many times not even quart size bags are enough. I have put sandwiches in gallon bags before, but thats wasteful, and embarassing. Using plastic wrap instead is ideal. I had a 750 sq ft roll plastic wrap I bought at Wal-Mart. The rolling cutter was so horrible (even when it was kept free of residue) that it was very frustrating to use the wrap. I got the Wrap n Snap dispenser based on the reviews and am so glad I did. It is a pleasure to use. Always chops the wrap in a straight line, never fails, and no frustration. The walmart roll had over an inch of tube sticking out either end and I had to trim off a good bit on either end (with a bread knife) and it worked fine, but from now on I will buy the Stretch-tite rolls at Costco.

21-11-2024I use plastic wrap a lot, and after having cut my hands numerous times over the Christmas holiday, I thought there must be a dispenser of some sort out there... I took a risk and bought the Stretch Tite, hoping it would work well. I was so surprised - it exceeded my expectations! It is so easy to use, and hands/fingers dont come anywhere near the blades. Grasping the plastic wrap is also not an issue. It doesnt retract in any way into the unit (which I was worried about). It readily pulls out. Cutting the wrap also surprised me - in a good way! Just a nice solid (gentle) push down on the unit quietly slices the wrap. I also thought I might be tied into buying Stretch-Tite rolls of wrap, but found it works well with any brand. But after using Any Brand up, I discovered that my local grocery store carries Stretch-Tite wrap, which does work better than any brand. I am sold on this product and highly recommend it.

> 3 dayI’ve used a Stretch-Tite dispenser for years…when my last one finally gave out, I bought this one. It’s even more sturdy than it’s predecessor! Easy to load, easy to use. You CANNOT use foil in this unit, but they do make a unit just for foil. Both are highly recommended!
