I was having problems with my old gun feeding glue sticks. Come to find out, there are like a dozen different size diameters of glue sticks out there. I had just thought there were small and large. I should have known that companies love to make things hard and incompatible for us consumers. The glue sticks this gun uses seem to be the most common diameter you will find in off brands. You really don't need to buy off brand sticks with Gorilla. The Gorilla brand sticks are as cheap or cheaper than the off brands! The gun has worked great for me. I have not had any problems with glue leaking. It has a stable stand, unlike many others. It feels sturdy to me. It takes a minute or two to heat up, but not any longer than any other gun I have owned. I use mine mostly for electronic and wood crafts. It is great for gluing a pcb to a project or to hold wires or a small speaker in place. This is my new go to glue gun! Read more
The best glue gun and the best hot glue! I’ve been using my first gorilla hot glue gun for almost 4 years now for a craft business. It has held up great, but the metal stand has become a little bent and it falls over easily. So it is now my backup. Otherwise it has performed very well and I did not hesitate to buy another. It gets very hot on high, does not drip after it has heated up. Read more
I've used many glue guns and I was up for a new one. I wanted cordless but they just don't seem to keep the heat like the plug-ins and after reading review after review, I decided to just go with this plug in with a brand name I love. I was tired of my old ones dripping and they were bulky so I took a chance on this Gorilla not expecting much. I'm SO glad I did! It's a full size gun but it's not bulky like others and the stand works well with no falling over. NO DRIPS! Not one and I kept waiting but it does not drip. It doesn't teeter when you set it down and although it's a plug in, I no longer care. THIS is worth every penny with no more frustrating drips, falls, and it does have 2 speeds which I never cared about before, but had to secure a ribbon to styrofoam and remembered reading the low speed is necessary, otherwise the foam will melt. Worked like a charm and glue feeds well. You really get everything you need with this one. It also has a great tip on it for fine tuning where you want that glue. Read more
This Gorilla hot glue gun kit is exactly what I needed and more. The fact that it comes with 45 glue sticks right off the bat makes it such a great value and means you’re ready to start crafting th e moment you open the box. The dual temperature setting is magnificent. I love having the option to switch between low and high temperatures depending on the materials I’m working with. Whether I’m gluing delicate fabrics or more heavy-duty items like wood and plastic, theirs glue gun delivers a strong, fast bond every time without burning or damaging my materials. it heats up quickly, and the trigger has a nice, smooth pull that gives you great control over the glue flow—no big messy globs or stringy chaos like cheaper glue guns. The ergonomic design is comfortable to hold, even for extended crafting sessions, and it feels durable and well-made. I’ve used this for everything from DIY home décor and holiday crafts to costume repairs and quick fixes around the house. It hasn’t let me down once. Gorilla really named it with this one—like, it gives a solid performance, thoughtful features, and plenty of glue to get you started immediately. So, if you’re into crafting, DIY, or just want a reliable glue gun that gets the job done right—then this is 100% the right one to get. You won’t regret it! Read more
This Gorilla glue gun works so well! It heats up quickly, is the perfect size for crafts, and the built-in stand makes it super easy to use. It also came with plenty of glue sticks, which was a nice bonus. Reliable, easy to handle, and does the job perfectly! Read more
Well, being such a well-known brand with glues thought I would go with these guys when I wanted a glue gun. When I got it, Nice, Colorful, Compact, and wobbly wait wobbly? Yea, strange, thought a well-known company would have spent a little more time checking quality control, guess not. Like maybe open one up when they got here from China and check out how it was made! Anyway, it works as it should I guess, melts the glue, sticks thing together (I hope) but requires a little modification to get it to stand up correctly. You need to either on a flat piece of sandpaper or as I did with a broad file/sand the foot at the bottom of the handle flat (it's not) so it sits flat, but also have to bend straighten the wire support stand that folds out in the front of the gun that it rests on to keep it upright! It only took a few minutes, not hard to do, and very stable now, and for the price for a dual temp (H/L) compact Colorful! Gun, I'm satisfied! and would buy it again. Talk to your manufacturer Gorila Guy, they are not doing it right! Read more
I got this for my wife to use on her crafts. I personally have not used it, but she doesn't complain about it and seems happy with it so I am happy with it! She likes the heat settings. Doesn't drip like her old one. Price point was nice. Read more
