It does the job
I've had this dispenser for four years. No Complaints. I'm ordering a second one. I recommend purchasing the weighted base also.

Tape Organization
Good for organization and keeping tape readily available. Best with the weighted bottom piece for single handed use.

Must-have staple for the library
REALLY LIGHT WEIGHT if you can afford the weight with it, it is much better.

Does What It's Supposed To Do
This tape dispenser does what it is supposed to do; however, it would be useless without the Weighted Base for P-56 Tape Dispenser for P-56 Dispenser, Item #: WS16815700. I give it 4/5 stars because the two parts need washers that did not come with either the dispenser or the weighted base.

Great tape dispenser
I bought this tape dispenser to replace the old one (exactly same one). the old one was probably 10 years old and just wasn't cutting well. The new one is great. I just with it had some kind of dividers between the different tapes. sometime the tapes get stuck to each other on the cutting blade.

Useful but crazy expensive
This is a great tape dispenser. I use it all the time. However, I am shocked at the high price. It is made of very lightweight plastic. I don't really understand why it costs so much.

Tape Dispenser
I love this so I can have 2 different sizes of book tape at my fingertips.The only thing I don't like is that is isn't weighted. Although it comes with mounting tape, I can't do that because we move it to various areas, and need it to be mobile.

So Handy
I have had these before and loved them. I didn't get the book weight due to the budget but will purchase it in the future. It makes a difference and is amazing too. Beware the razor-sharp edge--I have nicked myself and it does and excellent job cutting.

This tape dispenser is a great organization tool. I tried it without the weighted base, it definitely needs it to keep it in place. The base and the dispenser seem highly priced to me. Could the two pieces be offered together at a lower price?

Love it!
Love it! Wish I would have bought it sooner! I also purchased the weight to go with it. Blade was a little rusty for some reason, but still works fine!!!

It's the only tape dispenser we use. I had to order a second one for our library since it is constantly being used. Make sure to make your life easier and get the weight too.

Not what I expected, but would work great for some
It is my fault for not reading the description of this item more thoroughly. At a previous library we had one of these with a weighted base which was exactly what I wanted. When I saw the picture of this model, I just assumed that all multi-tape dispensers had weighted bases. Apparently not true. For this to work correctly, you must screw it into a table or wall. We really haven't found a good place to do that, so we have been trying to hold onto it with one hand to stabilize it while using the other hand to dispense the tape. That cancels out the functionality of being able to hold a book up to affix the tape in the exact place we need it. So, it doesn't work for us, and I haven't gotten around to checking with Demco to see if we could exchange the product for one with a weighted base; so that's really my fault also. I'm sure this is a good product--just not what I expected or needed.

Great product, Too expensive
This product has made it easier to use tape in our maker space, but for the price, I wish I could fit another roll of tape on it. I am satisfied with the product, and I would buy another, but it's just too expensive.

Overly Priced
This is a great tool to have, especially in a library. However, this is highly priced for the material. It is flimsy plastic.

Great - But way too expensive!
We bought this to replace two that went missing. It is perfect for large rolls of tape, but really- $70? It is basically two pieces of plastic and a sharp edge. It is the perfect thing to hold the tape that we use daily in the library.

Overly Priced
This dispenser is made of plastic and arrived with a rusted blade. The blade was replaced with no problems, but the price is quite expensive for what you get. We'll have to see how durable it is. Not very impressed.

misleading
This is a very ligthweight, plastic product. I am disappointed that something so expensive is so flimsy. There are screws to attach it to a wooden surface, but I was expecting a heavy-weighted dispenser, which i have used before and feels more substantive. I would expect this to have cost the manufacturer a few dollar to make, so why the markup?

Not Worth the Money
This tape dispenser does not have a heavy enough bottom so it is hard to get the tape off.

Doesn't Come with Base
If ordered with the weighted base, this is a great product. However, you can get this tape dispenser with the base on Amazon for $40, instead of $135 from DEMCO. Product is worthless without base.

Lightweight Construction, Difficult to reload
While I am generally satisfied with products that are distributed by Demco, I have to say the multiple roll tape dispenser is not an effective product. Its construction is from lightweight plastic, which is probably why so many reviewers emphasize a need for the weighted base. Tape edges slip from the blades that are supposed to anchor them in place, and the large dowel that holds rolls of tape is difficult to wrestle back into place when replacing spent rolls.
