Greater than one weekThis is a great item and worth every penny. I have used Stretch-Tite film from Costco for many years and have always been a little frustrated with the packaging. Yes, it comes with a serrated edge on which to tear off a sheet and also a sliding cutter on a plastic rail that fits over the serrated edge, but it requires opening the box very carefully and feeding the leading edge of the film through a small slot. Yeah, it works, but if the lid gets a little torn or the box gets a little banged up in the cupboard, pulling out a new sheet gets very clumsy. Plus, you have to find and unscramble the leading edge of the film before getting another sheet. Not exactly a life-shattering experience, but annoying nonetheless. The Wrap N Snap 7500 Dispenser avoids all of that. Open the lid, drop in a roll of film, pull the leading edge out over the front of the dispenser, close the lid and DONE. For the next sheet, the leading edge of the film is held nice and straight inside the dispenser, just pull out what you need and close the lid. Nice, neat and clean. The dispenser has enough weight to it and little gripper feet in front so that it stays in place on the counter while in use. Set your dish in front of the dispenser, pull out enough film to cover it, close the lid and wrap. I love it when a device just does what it is supposed to do. Easily worth the price.

Greater than one weekI really like StetchTite plastic wrap but like all plastic wrap, the container falls apart too soon. I stumbled across this dispenser when looking for something else and decided it was worth trying. I bought two - one for the kitchen and one for my studio. Im an artist and when Im done painting for the day, I cover my oil palette with plastic wrap and put it in the freezer. This has been a rather messy operation as the wrap clings to itself and trying to get it over may palette is often a struggle to see whos going to win the battle the wrap or me. The dispenser solved the problem for me and I am thrilled. I set my palette on my drawing table, in front of the dispenser, and pull the wrap out and over it. It stays straight and I get a tight seal. I also love using the dispenser in the kitchen. It is just so easy to use and I can wrap bowls, cut fruit, plates, and just about anything that I need to either freeze or refrigerate quickly and cleanly. Now all I need to do is get the other members of the household to use it.

> 3 dayI 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 dayMy counter space is very limited and since this item claimed to have a mounting option I was hoping to mount it to a wall. Unfortunately, it does not function in that configuration. My guess is the mounting holes are intended to mount to the counter surface. There should also be some type of warning or statement that once the stabilizers are securely in, they are secured. They are not coming back out without breaking something. Once I realized I could not mount it, I put the stabilizers on to see if I could find a counter or shelf home for it but nothing worked. So I figured I would just keep the dispenser in the drawer that I keep the wraps in. It was too big with the stabilizers and I could not get them off! Therefore, Im returning.

> 3 dayIve been using this plastic wrap dispenser for about 3 months at the time of this review. It gets used daily and has held up beautifully to date. Ive always HATED using plastic cling wrap. If you make homemade bread two or three times a week like I do, you probably spend a great deal of time wrestling with plastic wrap and swearing all the while. This little gadget will fix that. It makes it so easy to keep the cling wrap from from folding over on itself until its completely unusable. Simply place the dispenser on the counter next to the container you need to cover, pull the wrap over the top and press down on the top of the dispenser to cut. Voila! Thats all there is to it! No more swearing! The same goes for wrapping loaves of bread; just pull some wrap out onto the counter, measure what you need to wrap the bread, press to cut, and the wrap stays flat on the counter! Easy peasy! And just when you think it couldnt get any better, it does! The product description says you have to buy some special, and Im sure expensive, cling wrap from the manufacturer. Not so. Ive refilled it several times with ordinary cling wrap from the grocery store and it works just fine. The longer rolls wont fit so you need to be mindful of that when youre shopping, but any brand will work with this handy device. I absolutely love this thing and highly recommend it!

> 3 dayI’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!

Greater than one weekWe have been using Stretch-tite for a long time as it is so very superior to the other wraps out there in adherence to most surfaces. And when you can buy this dispenser, it makes it even better. Rolls out and snap slices. No more struggling with the paper boxes and sharp aluminum serrated edges. Not to say this dispenser is not sharp. It truly is and you still must use caution putting in the roll of plastic wrap. We used to be able to get them direct from Stretch-tite for $25 and a small shipping fee. Now they want an exhorbitant shipping fee, so we bought using Prime on Amazon. Still more expensive at $35, which we though was excessive, but ours broke after several years of good use, and we did not want to go without it. That is why the low rating on value.
