Stretch-tite WrapN Snap 7500 Dispenser

I’ll admit, the price of this thing is hard to swallow. But after owning it for ~4 months, I can easily say it’s worth every penny. I no longer end up with tangles of plastic wrap. This makes it so so easy to cut and wrap whatever I need to. Buy it! It makes plastic wrap so much easier!

It works like one would expect. You just drop in the roll of plastic wrap. It threads very easily. When you need the wrap, release the lid; pull the plastic wrap; shut the lid and push the lid down like a stapler; the wrap is cut very cleanly. You dont have to pull up and out. You just pull out horizontally. The dispenser has wide feet to make it stable. The wrap doesnt cling to the inner surfaces. Why cant everything be designed this well? Now, lets see how long it lasts. I have not tried this with aluminum foil yet. I dont use foil that much. It might be worth it for parchment paper.

Great product

The reason for 3 stars instead of 5 is that this new dispenser doesn’t guillotine cut the plastic wrap as sharply as my older one.

I have always had trouble with plastic wrap, Im left handed and felt that might have something to do with the wrestling match I endured.Tried every brand, the heavy verses the thin, and heavy was better, but not good. Now that Im a senior citizen with arthritis in my hands plastic wrap was a nightmare. Im back to finding new uses for plastic wrap now that it is a dream to use with WrapN Snap dispenser. It does take up more space and does not fit in the spot I kept the box type in. I have left it on the counter and this has worked out better. Im using it more. I had gotten into the habit of using zip lock bags for items that a quick wrap would do. An example is taking medication on the go. Plastic wrapped pills in the pocket is better than a qt. bag in the pocket. When packing for a trip I used plastic wrap instead of bags for many items like an extra pair of shoes that may soil clean clothing do well wrapped, takes up less room than air filled bags.

I like the way it doesn’t get tangled and keeps the wrap straight. My only complaint would be the size. I don’t like to have things in the counter so fitting it into a drawer is a little tight. It fit but you have to make sure it is shut properly. So I would have given it 5 stars if they made it a little sleeker and not as tall.

...Ive spent the last 35 or 40 years of my life cussing every brand of plastic wrap Ive ever used. Cant tell you how many hours of my life Ive wasted trying to unfold/unstick/unwad wrap after tearing it off using the cutter thats built into the box. And even worse, having to take the roll OUT of the box and patiently search for & free the end when it disappears back into the box. I found this gadget on Amazon and ordered one, and the recommended Stretch-Tite wrap. All I can say is I wish I had this thing 30 years ago. It does what it says, and does it WELL. The wrap is cut cleanly, there is no folding over or wadding up, and the wrap does NOT slip back down inside the dispenser the way it can with the cardboard boxes. You just gently press down on the lid and its cut. That simple. One thing I really like is you can use the heel of your hand to push the lid down and make the cut - this is great when you are wrapping up say raw chicken pieces to put in the freezer, since you never have to touch the machine with your chicken-juice-covered fingers. Doing this with the cardboard-box dispensers, Id have to stop & wash my hands before tearing off the next piece of wrap so I wouldnt get chicken juice all over the box. Believe me, thats a time-saver. What can I say, this gadget impressed me so much I ordered 2 more to give as gifts! If you hate trying to untangle plastic wrap this is exactly what you need. People have asked if brands of wrap other than Stretch-Tite will work - Im going to post an answer to that in the Questions section for this product. Check that answer to see if your wrap brand will fit.

I 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.

So much easier than in original packaging. Never lose the end of the plastic again

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product! I have spent endless hours unraveling plastic wrap, which just caused a lot of frustration until I saw this recommended by Americas Test Kitchen and also saw the Barefoot Contessa using it but was hesitant to get and worried it would be too big to fit in my drawer but it fits in my drawer perfectly without any problem and I wish I would have gotten this sooner. This is money extremely well spent. Just recently, prior to this purchase, I spent over 30 minutes trying to untangle the wrap and have my 19 year old son and his friend help as well with no success either. That is what made me get this product and so glad I did! I will be buying many more to give as Christmas presents to relatives!
