## Customer feedback

Customer feedback highlights adhesion, handling and cutting, clarity, and usefulness for moving and parcels. The reported ease of use and clear finish are relevant for routine box sealing, while these experiences do not establish performance in every condition. Feedback also includes less positive ratings, so overall ratings should not be treated as a guarantee for a particular surface or load.
