READ: This will save you time and effort.
Unfortunately, we've moved so many times but that means we're probably pro by now on packing and moving supplies. We ALWAYS use stretch wrap to protect our furniture, etc and I purchased this because it was Duck brand, to save some money and because of the great reviews.
The description states "Heavy 70 gauge plastic wrap safely secures and bundles items while moving, in storage or in transit
Non-adhesive shrink wrap sticks only to itself, not objects, for a quick and easy application and removal"
My experience of this was not "quick or easy application". This stretch wrap is defective and not for safely securing items while moving.
When trying to secure bundles for moving, this wrap does not unroll from the handle properly. The ends of the wrap sticks to itself as you unroll which requires you to have to manually unwrap the plastic with your hands up and down the entire handle every 1-2".(Think saran wrap) If you don't, the wrap gets caught and it's worse than a slinky to undo. You have to cut the plastic and then begin again which defeats the purpose of the wrap.
Save yourself time and effort and purchase the Pratt Specialties Stretch Wrap from Home Depot. It's the orange one. It is true 80 gauge plastic and works like intended. Easily comes off the handle properly and protects all your belongings.
