Plant Tying Machine, Lightweight Plant Vine Tying Tape Machine Tool, Plant Tape Gun for Tomatoes, Grapes and Vegetable Garden,Including Spare SK5 Blade, Garden Tapes and Staples(Red)

This sturdy tool helps me to quickly and easily create support ties using plastic tape for tomatoes and other garden plants .It comes with a pack of 1000 staples, an extra cutting blade, red and green tape rolls (10 each) plus a roll pre-loaded and ready to use .At this stage of the tomato growing season, my tomato plants are starting to grow tall and produce tomatoes, and they need support. So I grabbed a few bamboo sticks and headed out to the garden. to give this machine a try.The device is lightweight and I found it to operate smoothly. It's comfortable to hold and operate with just one hand. It let me create loop ties to support tomato branches by affixing them to a support such as a bamboo stake, netting, wire, or a tomato cage. The loops created with the tape can be made in various sizes and they are closed securely with a staple by the machine in one operation. The machine is designed to wrap the tape around the plant and support and close the loop. It lets you hold the plant in one hand and use the tape machine in the other.In the past, I've needed an extra set of hands to hold the tomato up while I manually tied a wire tie, so this method is a great improvement over my previous support methods.The tool is well made and it's perfect for tying tomatoes, grapes, cucumbers, pole beans, or any other garden plants that might need support.Highly Recommend!

I'm going to share a review here that I also wrote for a different type of plant staking fastener since I talked about this TapeTool there.*****I had lots of plants to stake up & support in my garden this year, and I've used 3 different types of products to attach them to the stakes. I'll start with these (a Figure 8 plant clip--not this TapeTool)--my least favorite. I was intrigued by the design of these. It took me a little bit to figure out how to hold them & open/close them at the right time so the stake was in one part of the figure 8 & the plant stem was in the other loop of the figure 8. I used a bunch & only one broke, so that's good. Even though these open & close and can hold the stake & plant together--separately--they can't tighten for plants that are small & want to slide out. These were the trickiest ones I tried.The second favorite ones were the plant clips from the Dollar Tree. Yes, I was surprised by that. They had both smaller & bigger clips (they looked like rounder hair clips of sorts), and they were more adjustable. These were pretty easy to use, though I didn't get as many in this package as I did with these Figure 8 clips.My total favorite was a TapeTool that i found here on Amazon. I didn't even know such a thing existed before this year, but it is currently my favorite gardening tool. There's a bit of a learning curve to it, but once I figured it out, it was so incredibly easy to use that I'd replace it immediately if it broke.For my experience with these, I wouldn't order these Figure 8 clips again. The value & ease of use just wasn't there for me. It was fun to try out a new-to-me product, but the novelty of the product didn't outweigh the time lost juggling the pieces. I'd go with that TapeTool hands down over this.****Separate Note: Bit of a learning curve with this--If I were going to dock a star, it would be for this: I appreciated that the directions had full -color pictures, but it was of the entire tool & wasn't zoomed in on the area being discussed. I had several hours of frustration trying to figure out how to replace both the roll of tape as well as the staples ( I ran through both on my first day).****To replace the tape--open the round section at the back & feed the tape with the end coming out of the bottom & up to the right --do not feed it over the top of the roll. To open the tape tube --pull down gently on the *middle* section that doesn't look like it will move. If you've pressed down on the right spot, it will open easily. If you're in the wrong place, it will not open & you'll be highly frustrated. Feed the tape through there & up to the "stapler" part at the front. Close the doors & click the handle to let it grab the tape.****To replace the staples--pull back the staple pusher & put the staples in upside down--yes, with the longer flat side lying down & the pointy-edged sides going up--the opposite of how you put regular staples in a regular stapler. I haven't seen this mentioned in any other reviews or videos online yet, so hopefully it will help someone else. Gently push the staple pusher until it's firmly against the staples.****To make it easier for myself later, I marked each of these things on mine with a Sharpie marker. There's no sense in having to try to remember or have to figure it out all over again once I've put it away for the season.Each time you use the TapeTool you'll click it twice--the first time gently, just to pick up the tape. Next you wrap it around the stake/support AND the plant stem (make sure you are clear of the stem & leaves BEFORE clicking it closed!), and then click it firmly closed. It should release at that point with the tape stapled around the two items.This thing is SO MUCH FUN to use once you get the hang of it! Seriously, I went around looking for things to stake up because I was enjoying it so much.

This machine is only good to tie one stem to one support. It uses staples which will probably end up in my soil, and the support ties are all one size. They are plastic, and I would rather use jute string as it is more sustainable.

UCCOSSO Plant Tying Machine, Lightweight Plant Vine Tying Tape Machine Tool, Plant Tape GunI found this easy to use. It works great for lightweight tying. The staple doesn't hold up to something heavier like an espelliered apple tree or even fruit ladened grape vines unless you use quite a few ties closer together.I do like how fast I can tie tomatoes to cages and lines without needing 3 hands, scissors and a roll that unwinds onto the ground.It comes with info on reordering supplies but wonder how cost effective the tiny staples will be.This will certainly get used during tomato tying time.

The item arrived on time and was packaged well. This plant tying machine is decently constructed. Currently using it on my cucumber and squash running plants that I am training upward. So far the tape is holding up nicely.

Super convenient plant tying machine. Very quick and easy to tie plants. Be careful on how much slack you give it though if you want it to stay in place. It uses plastic and staples so be sure to cut them and throw them away properly after season and not let them get mixed into soil. Comes ready to use out of the box with some staples and plastic already pre-loaded. Comes with a ton of extra staples and plastic to reload it with. Good for many years use with this one pack, even if you have a large garden. Great value.

This came already set up and ready to go, and came with a ton of tape and extra set of staples.it takes a tiny getting used to, but once you do, you can get going pretty quickly. I used this to help train my blackberry and raspberry bushes.

Didn't know these tools existed, makes stabilizing branches and plants easier and more of a one handed operation
