Stretch-tite WrapN Snap 7500 Dispenser

How 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!

I’ve always liked stretch-tite wrap from Costco but hated the box and cutter which always seemed to fail at about 1/4 of the way through...grrrr! I ordered this in order to avoid just throwing out the majority of the unused roll. I like this unit but the plastic composition seems brittle. I feel the need to be careful using it so that I don’t break it but I can deal with it. My only real complaint is that there are no instructions for opening the unit. Many of the reviews mention getting cut while trying to load the roll. I googled instructions and found a YouTube video which helped me to get it open. I was surprised to find the instructions INSIDE the unit. I’d suggest to the mfr that they place the instructions in the box but outside of unit itself.

Gifted to my niece since I love mine

I love my stretch-tite wrapsnap 7500! The plastic never ever tangles!! Im so happy I purchased this!

I grew tired of the cardboard box for the plastic wrap wearing out or wearing down halfway through the roll. We buy the two-packs at Costco, which is a great value. The cost of this container is really high, surprisingly enough, but my frustration with torn boxes and taping them up was also high. The box is sturdy and works great; the cutter is terrific. But, you need to include the little feet which makes it too big to then fit in the cabinet rack ... so we have to leave it on the counter. Its functional but certainly not attractive. And even if you can stow it away, the weight of the container and the roll of wrap makes it unwieldy to use in the same way you would the cardboard box. Bottom line, I like it for its function, dont think its worth the money being charged, and think the design could have been better.

It was what I expected

I really expected this to take up way too much space and just be a waste of plastic, but I changed my mind. It really works very well. It is too big to fit in the drawer with my aluminum foil, etc., but the top of the refrigerator is actually a really handy spot. Frankly, we got lazy about properly wrapping our food before, because it was just such a chore to get the box out, deal with how poorly it cut, and so on. But now its so easy to pull this dispenser down that all our unused food is still fresh the next day, making less food waste. Just make sure youve got the plastic wrap going over the roller and between the two guides (which have nice little scallops cut out for grabbing the sheet).

It is so easy to use! You no longer have to fight with the cling wrap in trying to wrap something. You just pull out what you need, place the item over or under the wrap, and close the lid to cut the wrap.

Now we use plastic wrap every day, because this dispenser makes the wrap so simple to handle. Unlatch the lid, grasp the wrap at the guides, pull the wrap you need, press the lid closed and youre ready to wrap (its so easy to use you can try different wrapping techniques). This dispenser has easy product loading/feeding/handling/one-touch-cutting that puts it head-and-shoulders above the competitors Ive used. It seems to have superior design and construction to any roll-dispenser Ive found; too bad rolls for other products wont fit. This product is specifically for rolls of Stretch-tite brand plastic food wrap. The wrap is available both on Amazon and as a Kirlkand product from Costco, and itself is a superior product. If youre considering the TVs Wraptastic (which utilizes a similar one-press-cut) for plastic wrap, then you really want the Stretch-tite WrapN Snap 7500 Dispenser. Wraptastic, while better than cardboard packaging, has some serious design issues Product loading/feeding/handling is laughable next to the 7500, so the only improvement for plastic wrap over the original box is the cutting mechanism; the non-slip feet are a particularly slippery plastic); I use it for foil and paper that do not fit in the 7500. So go ahead and order a Stretch-tite WrapN Snap 7500 Dispenser for yourself!

This product is just plain great. I did not realize just how much fumbling I experienced using the film manufacturers boxes. This item made all the problems go away. My only reservation is the design of the top retaining lever. It is very thin and I fear it will stress fracture with time. Time will tell.
