Five Star Reviews: | 83% Great glue August 20, 2017 Once again, this is me not paying attention to the description of the item I'm ordering but in this case, it worked out well. This is a big bottle of gorilla glue! It's pretty self-explanatory as far as getting the glue out. The top just lifts up and then snaps down when closed. I would recommend you wipe off the excess glue on the top after you've used it and closed the top. That will keep glue from drying and keeping the top free to open. The glue itself is awesome. Everything I've tried it on works great. I've had a few things I glued and clamped but after drying and removing the clamps it wasn't going anywhere. Highly recommend. I may need to resort to super glue for that one August 18, 2017 I got this to fix a few things around the house. I fixed the broken door jamb of one of the rooms with it. The only thing that this hasn't worked on is my mom's wooden backscratcher; I may need to resort to super glue for that one. Seems to hold just as good. Recommended July 18, 2017 I bought this because it was cheaper than Titebond 2 which I normally use. I actually prefer this as it is a touch thicker and therefore easier for me to control when using. Seems to hold just as good. Recommended. When does gorilla glue ever disappoint? Used this to glue a rolling wheel foot ... June 22, 2017 When does gorilla glue ever disappoint? Used this to glue a rolling wheel foot back onto an arm chair due to lack of any real carpentry skills or handiness, and it's good as new! Product is similar to what is described. strong glue ... June 1, 2017 Product is similar to what is described. strong glue, can definitely help construct small projects around house if you don't want to drill and add nails. This wood glue is super strong, you won't be disappointed May 30, 2017 I wanted to try the Gorilla Wood Glue but refused to pay the prices in the store for the mini bottle of this same product. Amazon price and size of bottle is just what I needed. This wood glue is super strong, you won't be disappointed! | 67% As Advertised August 29, 2017 This item is exactly as described - the multi-pack arrived with 12 0.07oz tubes of superglue, neatly packaged. The large package (containing the 12 tubes) closes securely so you don't need to worry about losing or spilling the individual tubes while storing them.The glue itself works as advertised, bonding immediately and strongly.The only negative in my view is that the superglue tubes don't have an integral method to break the seal - usually there is a sharp point on the cap to break the seal of the tube, but with these you need to break the seal yourself using some other sharp object. FABULOUS Product!! May 28, 2017 There are two things in this world that should come in size petite and Super Glue is one of them! (The other is Great Stuff, that expandable foam that you can only use once!!) These are FABULOUS. Great for any one job and on the next job you don't find yourself having to clip the tip to get the glue to come out the second time. I absolutely cannot rave about this enough. Perfect size to use for a project and toss without feeling guilty.Can start the next project without the frustration of trying to get the glue to come out. Woo Hoo for super glue packs!! It's actually a very nice design because it is its own safe storage container October 26, 2016 I made sure that I purchased this because it was so obvious to me from so many of the reviews and responses on this listing, that most people purchasing this are not necessarily the brightest bunch.So many people having difficulty getting to the glue. This must be a manufacturing blunder.It's a clamshell package people! I litterally purchased this JUST to open the package! Sure, I may need some glue in the future... but right now, it's all about finding out what all the fuss is about.Cut through the middle of the label and pull it apart! Whalah! It's as simple as that! It's actually a very nice design because it is its own safe storage container. The plastic is thick because it's reusable and they don't want you accidentally spilling the glue or crushing the case. You need to give it a little bit of force to pop apart but it does open fairly easy. If it was any easier to open, kids could get inside and glue their lips together.I don't normally feel like I need to insult other reviewers but seriously... you can't open the package so you leave a bad review or go on Amazon and ask a question about how to open?? One reviewer even broke an expensive antique and made a mess trying to glue it back together and even glued their fingers together... is this a product fault!?? No! It's user error. I guess I shouldn't expect too much from a majority who has a need to glue things back together... but come on... it's common sense.Another reviewer left a bad review stating that the glue tubes themselves were difficult to get into, stating that the cap (which is normally used to puncture a new tube), is smaller than the openeing on the tube... therefore making the tubes useless since they can't puncture the new seal. Seariously?? All you need to do is unscrew the cap, remove the red ring/washer which is obviously loose and no longer needed, and then tighten the cap back on which punctures the seal. I'm no rocket scientist, but I used very basic mechanical logic to figure these things out... and although I didn't read the instructions on the main container, I am almost certain that it explains this on there as well (edit: it actually DOES explain in the first line in the instructions how to puncture the tube). It's actually a very smart packaging system all the way around.Whatever though. Just wanted to show future buyers that the package is intentionally designed with stronger plastic and is meant to be pulled apart in two pieces... not ripped apart with a box knife.Great deal on the glue, I'm sure it will come handy when I need to glue my fingers together. Perfect! July 26, 2016 Really I only needed to get a regular sized bottle, just for basic house-hold use, but the price was pretty nice so I figured I'd go with the bulk little bottles. I didn't realize how much better it would turn out to be. I usually get so stressed about dealing with glue building up on the bottle and the cap getting all gross and sticky that I end up throwing away half of a regular sized bottle because it's all dried out and tough to deal with. Since these ones only hold .07oz of glue, I find myself using a whole bottle for a project and then tossing the bottle without having to deal with getting the cap back on and not getting glue everywhere. May be a little more wasteful to throw away a bunch of small tubes, but it's better than throwing away half of a full sized bottle because the cap is stuck on. It'd be easy to stash one of these bottles in your purse too, in case of emergencies. Super Glue is great, what else is there to say? June 23, 2016 This is a great value pack of super glue, the magic that keeps my house in one piece. I usually only use it to fix figurines and nick nacks, and it makes them look good as new if I find all the pieces! I used this to fix my headphones that cracked, and they are strong as ever, so this product saved me from investing in another expensive set of headphones. The packaging is tricky but not impossible given some patience. The size of the tubes are perfect, I can use one tube for quite a few fixes. Having multiple tubes is a great idea, it keeps me from using too much or wasting it all if the cap is accidentally left off. This is the same stuff that glued my mother's fingers together when I was growing up, the best fast drying sticky stuff that was ever made. No other brand has ever gotten this right. Dont break your head or the packaging, it comes apart easily July 10, 2015 For those who are having trouble opening it, I have posted a couple of pictures. You don't need to break the box. It comes apart in two halves. You just need to pull on the *handle* and coax the two *notches* on the sides to release. It's very sensible packaging for a dozen tubes of superglue in my opinion. Easy to apply and works fine. |
Four Star Reviews: | 10% Darned Good Glue! September 1, 2017 Works great, dries clear, holds strong!Got it to fix a broken drawer. It came wrapped in a plastic back in case of leaks, which there were none. Easy to use, fine product. Great glue, packaging could improve. July 17, 2017 Holds great, but the cap could be a little better. After using, it can be tough to open, and often comes off entirely when i try to pry it open. Working good. March 21, 2017 Working good. Put to glue a chair. haven't test the strength yet, seems working This glue holds January 7, 2014 have been using Gorilla glue for a few yearsholds wellthis was a good price for the size bottle | 13% I brought this good item(s) and did not have any issues with it ... May 12, 2017 I brought this good item(s) and did not have any issues with it OK; the packaging is somewhat hard or tricky to open, But if you know how to open it, then it's all good ! You just have to carefully break or cut around the middle section part where the labels are intact. It worked perfectly fine for me, as I had no problems at all, even when I opened it up too get a tube out & use it. You just gotta know what you are doing, otherwise you will end up in all sorts of bother?, but Not likely at all. So just be careful with opening it, and DO NOT use a sharp utility knife too open it okay ! Good value. Convenient storage and easy to use. March 9, 2017 As other reviewers have said, the box is a little difficult to open. Other than that, it's a convenient way to store these individual tubes of glue.The glue tubes themselves are nicely designed so that they stay sealed until it's time to use one. Then, it's very simple to screw down the dispensing cap after removing the collar, which punctures the seal. No mess, no fuss.I probably would have given it 5 stars except the dispensing nozzle is a little too large for my purposes (fly tying) and it's difficult to control the amount of glue being dispensed. it's fine. Feels like it is drying slower than I'm ... November 6, 2016 First a couple quick notes: opening the packaging isn't that hard. Use a knife to slice the front and back labels first, then just squeeze together along the short sides and pull. Don't cut the plastic. Second, the caps don't have a puncture point because you don't need one. Unscrew the nozzle, remove the red ring spacer, then screw the cap back on. With the plastic ring gone, the nozzle screws all the way on and punctures the seal itself.As far as superglue goes, it's fine. Feels like it is drying slower than I'm used to, but still dried instantly on the fingers. Go figure! Nice Product, Difficult To Open Packaging. May 23, 2016 Firstly I must admit that the packaging of this super glue is not so easy to open, as many others of said. Ultimately I had to use a knife and cut the labeling in the middle, on both sides of the container. From there I had to grab both ends of the container, and pull with a good amount of strength to separate the two halves. Apart from that though, this super glue does exactly what it claims while binding to most surfaces within seconds. Also the value for this purchase is definitely there seeing as how you get a sizable amount of super glue, to last you awhile, at almost a bargain price. If it was not for the packaging of this product that made it so hard to open, then I would have given this super glue five stars completely. Corals and Aquarium glue December 26, 2015 I use these to glue my coral frag plugs onto my live rock. They work very well for this purpose.The packaging for the glue could be a lot better. Sadly, it took me a little bit of time to figure out how to open the package. It also takes a lot of effort getting into the package once opened.I really like the fact that these are basically 1 to 2 uses each. I've found that superglue is not something that can be used multiple times without struggles.As stated previously, I use the super glue to attach coral frags onto live rock. It takes a little bit of time for the glue to set in and sometimes leaves a cloudy white residue behind. Appears to be non toxic to fish.I am going to stick to using this glue for my aquarium. The cost is excellent and works as advertised. Nice to have several of these handy June 18, 2015 Nice to have several of these handy. The box is quite difficult to open!These are the standard type of tubes that will glue themselves shut after one use. But I don't think that makes them one-time-use. If you have a used tube that no longer flows, just use scissors to cut a small slit in the tube and squeeze glue out of that point. (Wipe of the scissors ASAP!) When done, it will glue itself shut. (You can wrap a small strip of paper over the 'wound' to keep it from getting all over stuff.)When you need it again, cut it again. Simple! Now you don't have to throw them away after a single use. |
Three Star Reviews: | 3% Three Stars May 23, 2016 This glue gets more solid in the bottle overtime and it is difficult to squeeze it out. OK... July 31, 2015 slightly thin for my preference, had it run out from between the boards I was gluing (making a farmhouse table) so it's now on the tops of the boards. hopefully a razor will cut the glue away so it won't be visible or mess up the staining process. | 7% Just because it's the original, doesn't mean it's the best April 21, 2017 Don't get me wrong, this stuff works just fine if you're very careful. What I don't like is that it is very hard to work with, and can be really finicky with certain materials. Worst of all, it always seems to find it's way to your hands, and dries instantly!Once again, this stuff still works, you just have to be very careful. If you can do that, you will be getting a bargain. If not, keep the goof-off handy. like one reviewer was saying by insulting people April 11, 2017 As many other people I cannot open the packaging. While it appears intuitive, you just slice the label around the seam and press and pull, it should work, but it doesn't. I have very small hands, yet strong from doing jewelry design all day, I still cannot separate the container once the label is sliced. I never give less than stellar reviews, but ordered 4 of these containers and can open none of them. Thinking it was me, I had my young, very strong, nephew take a crack at it, yep, he couldn't open it either. This has nothing to do with how much common sense you have or how bright you are, like one reviewer was saying by insulting people, it is simply poor packaging. I am guessing not many women can open this packaging. Great price but March 3, 2017 Every time I open a tube it squirts out on my fingers. I've tried every way I can think of but nothing prevents the glue from squirting out when you screw in the dispenser top. I now have to wear plastic gloves when I put on the screw top, which isn't a huge deal but I wish I had known to do this the first couple times. The second time I tried wrapping a paper towel around it, it still got all over my hands. Take my advice, wear gloves when you open this stuff. Packaging needs redesigned, but glue and price are great. December 27, 2016 Glue is a tried and true favorite, but the packaging is awful. First, there is no instructions on how to open it, then, after looking on here, and finding others who were kind enough to show how to open it, I tried it. Unfortunately, my hands were too small to grip it and exert enough pressure to pop it open as others did. I resorted to slitting one side with a knife, so cover came off, but can be replaced for storage. Not child safe, but I have no children in my house, so that is not an issue. Life is too short... October 17, 2016 Life is too short to spend 30 minutes opening a package. I can't say as I have ever had the experience of packaging deterring my likelihood to re-purchase something, but now I can. While I appreciate other reviewers offering suggestions on opening the plastic outer packaging, and applaud their success, after attempting to "coax" it apart, using a box cutter and attempting with scissors, I finally hammered the heck out of it. Which was admittedly satisfying after so many failed attempts. My glue now resides happily in a ziplock bag. Will purchase something else next time. good on plastic, not on wood or ceramic September 19, 2015 I was using mostly krazy glue, but that one is pretty mucha single use tube, so once I saw this one available, with resealable tubes, I bought it immediately.I am not sure why they make it so, but box )where tubes are stored) is really difficult to open. even after you cut the stickers all around, and even when you want to open it second time, this is not an enjoyable task. I am not sure why better design could not be employed.This one sealed plastic really well - after several seconds, I could the pieces go and they stay there. I usually leave them untouched for several hours before using it.Could not bond ceramic - I applied it and pressed the pieces together and hold them for more than a minute, and there was not even a hint of two pieces sticking together. After several attempts, I just cleaned the surfaces from the wet superglue, and applied krazy glue (single-used tube). Pieces were glued in several seconds, and I was able to let them go and leave it for several hours to complete the work.I was not able to glue wood pieces together either with superglue. I would imagine that if you can have the pieces arrange together for a long time, super glue will probably seal it eventually, but that is not always possible. |
Two Star Reviews: | 1% so this seemed like a good and obvious purchase January 25, 2016 I needed to glue two small pieces of wood together, so this seemed like a good and obvious purchase. They didn't stay together at all, this glue did literally nothing. not impressed at all February 18, 2014 I expected much more from this product. However when it arrived, it was frozen solid as it was shipped during the harsh cold weather.So I went to the website and found the product can go through a freeze and thaw period several times. Had this already occurred and was it beyond its usefulness?The company representative told me what to do and shake vigorously once thawed. I shook it. My daughter shook it. My fiance shook it. Til our arms were tired we shook it making sure it was blended completely.The very first job I did was glue a curved rail onto the top of a bed frames footboard. All the dowels had come loose over time. I even sanded the surfaces to be bonded as i know glue will soak into the pores of the wood, i clamped it and let it sit for not 24 hours as instructed, but 3 days. I didn't want my child's fingers permanently bonded to the wood as she wasn't in school. The moment I unclamped it and went to turn it around to glue the leg assembly on, the rail came completely off. So either the product had seen its freeze/ thaw cycle during shipping, or it is not the quality I have heard about. | 5% WARNING Arthritis Customers (especially) April 20, 2017 Warning to Customers with Arthritis: The container these tubes are in is extremely difficult to open, and even once opened, the amount of pressure and maneuvering necessary to disengage the sections is unusually challenging. Also, because these tubes are designed as the original product, the differences are noticeable and if you are used to using any later versions (new, improved, etc.) there's a good chance that opening your first tube will be confusing. These tubes do not have a pointed part within the cap to pierce the foil seal. I could not find anything pointed, so resorted to a nearby knife point (which made a mess). Later, I learned that even though there was not a point inside the cap, there was an "o" shape ring in its place that DID pierce the foil while screwing the cap on. This original version, while applying, is very thin and runny and difficult to control, manage, and keep from dripping excessively. Drying takes much longer than expected. Finally, once I was done I found out that the product had done a better job of sealing skin on my fingertips than it had on its originally intended target! I would not recommend this product to anyone, especially arthritis sufferer, and will be returning this purchase for a more modern version. The savings is simply not worth the inconveniences experienced. THE PACKAGING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN .......... February 17, 2017 I would have given this 5 Stars ....... but the packaging is the WORST packaging I have ever seen. I had to have my grandson get out a hacksaw to open the package because I didn't want to destroy a $50 knife. I can't believe they would put Super Glue in a package that is this difficult to open. Maybe they could have put directions on the package on how to open the package. This is AWFUL! Packaging alert! I used normal expected attempts to open ... December 19, 2016 Packaging alert!I used normal expected attempts to open the 1/16" hard plastic case. Eventually had to carefully use a sharp-pointed carpet knife to separate the top and bottom of the case, cutting around all four sides to get it open. Sliced open two tubes of glue in the process and had to discard them.Even so, the price and convenience of the 12-Pack is worth the hassle provided one has free shipping with Amazon Prime. Super glue itself works well but some of my bottles have leaks and the caps won't stay on. December 10, 2016 My particular package has a few bottles that are leaking and for some reason the caps don't want to stay on once I open a bottle. Otherwise the super glue works well. Package is indeed hard to open as other reviews have said but not impossible. It's not easy to control November 2, 2016 This stuff is a mess. Once you open a bottle, it is everywhere - all over the bottle, your hands, the table, and whatever you were trying to glue. It's not easy to control. The only plus is that the glue does work and sticks things together as it should. Unfortunately you then have to unstick your fingers from each other, your hand from the table, and the table from whatever you were gluing. Good product but poor packaging October 29, 2015 If there were an award for the worst product packaging, this package would win it hands-down. There is no obvious way to open it upon close inspection. No hint from the product labels. After pulling it from different angles and pressing it on different parts to no avail, I finally brought out my metal sheaves and wire cutters and cracked the plastic box open. Only then did I realize how it is supposed to be open. The plastic box can be popped open into two halves. But you can't see the junction of those two halves because it is hidden by the labels on the front and the back of the box. You need to cut the labels in half precisely along the junction (with a box cutter or razor blade) or peel them off (a messy task) before you can pop the box open.Hope this reviews saves you some time and headache. |
One Star Reviews: | 3% Hardend up had to return September 5, 2017 I received the glue last week and opened it up to use it and noticed it's like a big glob of hardend glue. Its almost like peanut butter consistency. Returned for refund Worthless December 28, 2012 I find Gorilla glue to be worthless. I've tried it on more than a handful of applications and it literally never sticks very well or very long. I'm going back to carpenter's glue. I know it will perform much better. | 8% Extremely runny, takes forever to set, and ultimately doesn't work as well as 3M Super Glue Gel. July 11, 2017 Terrible version of "Super Glue". Extremely runny, takes forever to set (many, many minutes, even a half hour), and ultimately doesn't work! I'm going back to 3M Super Glue Gel, which works great, doesn't run, and sets in seconds. Saying "Original" in the name doesn't make it the best. Shame on Amazon and the distributor. February 21, 2017 Beware wrestling with this container. Any suggestion of using a cutting tool around this product is irresponsible. The outside of my container was sealed. It took tools and time to rip the package apart. Any product sold that requires internet video instructions for OPENING THE PACKAGE shouldn't be purchased. I needed the glue, not the half-hour of torment figuring out ways to open the defectively designed package. the tube opens easily but BEWARE( January 14, 2017 BEWARE! First of all, the package it comes in is close to impenetrable. It is worth your life to get it open. Once a tube has been extracted from the plastic hell of a prison, the tube opens easily but BEWARE(!) the glue is like water and it immediately runs all over. No matter how many precautions I took, it got on my hands. I tried nail polish remover. That took away the stickiness but not the glue residue. If there is a remedy on the tube, the print is TOO SMALL to read! I used one of those callus remover tools you use on your feet and that got off the roughness of the residue but it doesn't really remove the glue. To add insult to injury, it didn't glue together the pieces I needed to be glued! I am throwing it all away. It was a nightmare. Does NOT dry in 15 seconds. January 13, 2017 Severely dissapointed in this glue. Instructions say to hold material together for 15 seconds, yet everytime I spend several minutes holding my material together only to find out the glue hasn't dried and nothing sticks together. This occurs everytime I use the glue no matter what surface or material I am glueing. Maybe I just got a bad batch or something but this is incredibly frustrating and is a deal breaker for me. Horrible packaging, never had this experience before November 20, 2016 Clear package (holding glue) is absolutely impossible to open. We finally resorted to scissors, it punctured one of the glue and now the whole lot is ruined. Horrible packaging, never had this experience before. I had a terrible time opening the package October 29, 2016 I had a terrible time opening the package. So much so, that I pierced one of the glue tubes, it got all over my hands, and ruined the boxcutter. I decided I'd had enough and threw the whole thing out. Very disappointing. If they are going to make the packaging this difficult to open, surely they can provide some instructions. |
