"I appreciate the built-in stand for keeping the glue gun upright. Plus, it comes with a case and glue sticks, which is a nice touch. The heat settings let me turn it off without unplugging, and I find it surprisingly lightweight for its size. Overall, it's a great value for all the features!"

"After trying a glue gun from Walmart that didn’t heat properly, I switched to this Romech glue gun, and it's superior! The glue gets hot enough with no drips and is easy to operate. The price is excellent, especially with all the included glue sticks. I'm very happy with my purchase!"

"I recently picked up the Gorilla Dual Temp Full Size Hot Glue Gun, and I am quite happy with its performance. The dual-temp feature is fantastic, allowing me to work with various materials. The precision nozzle makes glue application neat and easy. It heats up quickly, and I appreciate the smooth and consistent flow of glue.

I highly recommend this glue gun for anyone in need of a reliable and versatile tool."

"The Gorilla Dual Temp Full-Size Hot Glue Gun Kit heats up quickly, and the instructions suggest waiting about 5 minutes for optimal use. I find the power light indicator helpful, as it shows whether the gun is plugged in. The non-slip surface is comfortable, and the glue sticks fit easily. However, I experienced a minor issue with the trigger connection breaking while using it. I was able to fix it, but I would recommend a professional glue gun for larger jobs."

"I absolutely love this glue gun! It's the perfect size for my hands and works flawlessly. It came with plenty of glue sticks, so I'm set for a while!"

"For years, I used a large industrial glue gun, but this one is much more appropriate for wrapping gifts. Its fine tip lets me add glue precisely where I need it, making it versatile for other projects too!"

"I've had this glue gun for two years now, and it's still amazing! It stays hot long enough for about a minute of crafting, which is perfect for my needs."

"I think this full-size hot glue gun is a great upgrade from the mini ones I usually use. It heats up quickly and the glue flows fast—perfect for bigger projects. The larger glue sticks mean I don't have to reload as often, and it stands upright without wobbling, which is super convenient. It feels solid and comfortable in my hand. I'm leaving the minis for my kids and sticking with this one!"

"This glue gun is my favorite! I have three others, but this one heats up fast and stands up on its own. The glue flows nicely as well. I have no complaints—I use it frequently, and it’s definitely my go-to glue gun. Great purchase!"

"The size and feel of this gun are fantastic. It heats up quickly, and I’ve had no leaky, gluey mess. It’s just a pleasure to use!"

"While it does heat up fast, I found it’s not as fast as advertised. However, it does ooze glue a bit when not in use, which is why I gave it 4 stars. Overall, still a good glue gun!"

"I decided to upgrade to DeWalt after my last glue gun failed. This choice has been fantastic! It heats up super hot and outperforms my previous glue guns. However, I noticed it doesn't have a light to indicate it's on, and it takes a while to cool down, so I have to unplug it and be cautious about where I set it."

"I’ve never used a hot glue gun before, but when I needed to work on carpet in a boat, I couldn't use my wife's tiny pink one. Finding this Dewalt glue gun was a stroke of luck. I ran through an entire bag of glue sticks without any issues. It heated up quickly, fed the glue flawlessly, and felt very sturdy. I used Gorilla Glue sticks, and it worked perfectly!"

"I don't enjoy sewing, but this glue gun made it so easy to join materials. My laundry basket had some tears, and after struggling with stitches, I decided to test this glue gun. It worked wonderfully, heating up quickly and making everything look good. I'm excited about all the projects I might tackle now!"

“I got this glue gun to make fairy houses with my kids this summer, and I’ve been really impressed. The handle does get a bit warmer than I’d prefer on the high setting, but it’s manageable. The two temperature options are fantastic because some materials can’t handle high heat. Using a lower temperature first has made my projects much easier. It came neatly packaged with plenty of glue sticks for starting out, and it fits comfortably in an adult's hand. We had an amazing time working on our project, and I will definitely use this glue gun again!”

“As a first-time glue gun user, this one has worked wonderfully for me. It heats up fast and is very user-friendly.”

"I bought this for some crafts, but it was frustrating. It took almost an hour to heat up, and the glue stick remained solid. Don't waste your money!"

"I love creating different craft projects, and when I needed a hot glue gun, I chose this one. Great value! It came with a good quality glue gun, some glue sticks, and a convenient case, which was the selling point for me. It's a tight fit, but I still give it 5 stars. I'll need to buy more glue sticks separately, but it's definitely a great starter pack!"

"I bought this glue gun because I couldn't find my other one and needed it quickly for some Christmas wreath projects. I was thrilled with the next day shipping and how inexpensive it was. The glue gun works well, but I've noticed it gets a bit warm on the sides. The storage case is a bit small, though; if the glue stick is in the gun, it’s hard to fit back in. Despite these flaws, I like the stand and the on/off switch. The glue doesn't drip from the tip, either. I'd recommend it if you're in a pinch, but I can't give it higher than 4 stars."

"I can't believe I got this set for such a low price! It gets the job done and is of very good quality. The bonus is that it's all stored in a little case that keeps everything together, which I really appreciate."
