ROMECHFull Size Hot Glue Gun with 60/100W Dual Power and 21 Hot Glue Sticks (7/16"), Fast Preheating Heavy Duty Industrial Gluegun with Storage Case for Crafting, DIY and Repairs (Pink)

This one can definitely tolerate staying turned on for 8 hours, as opposed to the Stanley 80 watt glue gun which I have been through 2 of in the last few months. My only complaint about this glue gun is the design placement of the button that switches between the two different wattages. It is directly in the same position where you might grip with your fingers, occasionally accessing hard to reach areas, or using the gun upside down, or inside an item. And that particular wattage switch is so easy to accidentally switch from the lower to higher setting, without any resistance, that you might not even notice that you have accidentally pushed it down, engaging the power you didn’t intend to use until it’s much cooler or hotter than you needed it to be, and you’re pouring the glue onto your project in shock and awe. And the heat difference between the two settings is quite alarming. So I would have liked to see either the button have some pressure behind it, or it’s placement be located in a slightly different position. Regardless, do be careful, and make sure that you are aware at all times what position that particular button is in as you are using it. Additionally, I purchased a very short heavy duty grounded extension cord with its own on/off switch to plug this into.

BEST GLUE GUN EVER!! I just did a huge project and used most of the glue sticks that came with this pack!! I've had many glue guns before and none have ever worked this well....and none have done a better job of keeping the glue hot enough to melt and not so hot that it's burning anything!!

I have an old cheap glue gun that I have be using for 30 years or more. I has served my needs, but I've always been frustrated by how long it takes to heat up. Getting a fast heat up was my primary reason for buying a new gun. I think I am going to be very happy with this one. I tried it out for fun and found that it heats up to a usable temperature quite quickly, maybe about 4 minutes. The "kick stand" works well but it is still easy to tip over. That said, it always lands flat on its side so no problems with the tip coming in contact with anything.

I wanted to buy a glue gun that would handle delicate tasks, but also be useful for light construction gluing. I picked this gun because the reviews were better than the big name guns. The gun comes in a very nice soft case which holds the tool and more than twenty six inch glue sticks. For a crafter, this is great storage. For the shop, I will probably build a more suitable box for a rough and dirty environment.FEATURES: 1. The fold down metal stand actually works. The gun stays up and doesn't tip over on it's own. It even stayed up after a light bump. 2. It has a Hi-LO temperature switch in the handle. Wonderfully convenient. Moreover, it's a safety feature because it lights up when electric current is running through the gun. 3. It does not have an inline or handle mounted on-off switch. Don't complain about that. I purchased (Amazon has them) an inline switch that you plug into a wall outlet (or even an extension cord) and then plug in the glue gun. That arrangement gives you an on-off switch at the end of the gun cord - always near at hand. 4. It does not come with silicone tip guards. No loss. Those tend to melt or burn off over time. Keep your fingers away from the heated brass tip and all will be well. Or wear silicone heat gloves.PERFORMANCE: 1. It heats up within the time advertised. Some reviews have found that it does not reach the advertised temperature and/or goes down in temperature after reaching the initial starting high temperature that melts the glue sitting in the gun when the gun is turned on. I don't have the instruments to test that. However, the glue comes out steaming on HI. The glue seems to cool quickly, but I don't know if that the characteristic of the glue or if the glue gun temperature is lower when squeezing out. 3. I haven't mastered trigger control yet, but the glue seems to flow evenly with the right combination of speed and trigger pressure. 4. NO glue gun is dripless. This glue gun drips very, very little. A truly tiny ball forms at the tip of the gun when it is at rest and maybe 15 to 30 minutes later it falls off. Over a couple of hours using the gun, I counted seven tiny balls on the plate I keep under the gun. 5. There was some extremely light stringing, but not with every use. 6. the smallest stick size that works is 4 inches. I mention this because one of the best glue sticks on the market, Stanley (check out Project Farm on YouTube for the glue stick testing video), are only four inches long. I like the six inch size, but you can get sticks up to ten inches. The size stick depends on how much maneuvering room you have. Besides, you can always cut the stick down to any size between full to 4 inches.CAUTIONS: This is true with every glue gun on the market - NEVER use it with the tip pointed upward. If the liquid glue flows backward into the gun, it will turn solid when the gun is turned off. Because that flow of glue is outside the heating chamber, the next time you start the gun, it will remain solid, blocking the glue stick passage and freezing the trigger movement. End of gun. WAIT until the gun is fully heated and the glue in the heating chamber is fully melted. If the trigger offers the slightest resistance - STOP. If the glue is not fully melted in the chamber, solid glue in the tip will block the liquified glue from flowing out of the tip. Instead, pressing the trigger harder in that situation will force the liquid glue backwards into the glue gun and you will glue the workings as solidly as if you used the gun in the tip up position.RECOMMENDATIONS: This is a strong buy. At this price, the ROMECH glue gun punches way above it's peers and probably all of the higher priced guns with similar features. I'm sticking with this glue gun.

I needed one soon and local store were very expensive and not what I was looking for. This has 2 temps and a really nice carrying case. Had it in 2 days

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Two temperature settings, makes it convenient to set different materials in place without burning or melting items.

I recently purchased the ROMECH Full Size Hot Glue Gun with 60/100W Dual Power, and it has quickly become my go-to tool for all my DIY and crafting projects. The ability to switch between 60W for delicate materials and 100W for heavier-duty tasks is incredibly convenient. This glue gun heats up quickly, minimizing wait time and allowing me to dive straight into my eject. The copper nozzle provides a consistent and smooth glue flow, reducing mess and ensuring precise application. Overall, the ROMECH Full Size Hot Glue Gun has exceeded my expectations and has become an indispensable tool in my crafting toolkit. I highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable and versatile glue gun.

It works well and easily. Can get into difficult corners with it. Now let's see how long it lasts. Will update this review later on.
