AdTech Industrial Strength Full Size High-Output Hot Melt Glue Gun – Professional Grade Hot Glue Gun for Carpentry, Repairs & Remodeling, Grey, 200 watts - 189

I use this for cabinetry shim gluing and other carpentry work. I was nervous since I’ve never heard of this brand, but it’s awesome! It is a hefty weight which suggest that the heating element is ready to work. It heats up in about 2-3 minutes. It has excellent output but barely leaks at all when not in use (at temperature). I’ve used the Arrow (150 watt?) guns and really liked them but this thing is much better. I also really like the 2 stand options. The fold away is my go to but if I worked in a shop I would probably use the larger stand. Well worth the price!

Great replacemnet for older 3m Scotch weld gun that finaly gave up after many years. 350 watt is an excellent high volumne gun.

A high temp gun. So the glue is very liquid. And none drips out. It's magic. It has some sort of spring loaded valve in the end. When I let go of the grip the valve closes and stops the glue. I can set it down anywhere. No drips. A nice gun otherwise too. Feels sturdy. Lots of heat. Easy to squeeze.

This glue gun is HUGE but seems to work well.

This is not an industrial-quality glue gun. For light occasional use it's a good tool. It does require industrial quality glue with 1/2 inch diameter and high melt temperature. Great for heavy duty jobs. It's going to be useless for crafting. Low temperature glues will just run through it and smaller diameters will not feed right.

The first thing you will notice is how it fits your entire hand and feels like an actual glue gun instead of a mini piece of equipment. It takes 10 inch glue sticks so you don't have to keep reloading, dispenses glue fast and it is quite hot! The best feature that I love is the fact that it does not drip. I used to have to put cardboard under the tip of my old glue guns but no longer. This really is a great piece of equipment and if you don't have something similar you really should consider getting this now!

Great great product easy to use hot hot hot Smooth trigger action. Lots of heat Looks to made heavy duty

Best ever in a long sad line of previously owned toy glue guns. One of the best features of this model, is the very positive glue stick advancing mechanism. When the installed glue stick is consumed to the point that it no longer advances, simply insert a fresh stick and keep on gluing without interruption.No messing around trying to bond new stick to old, or trying to hold the work piece, pull the trigger, and keep pressure on the new stick using only two hands. The gun holds its temp well with minimum standby dribble, but when the trigger is pulled, this baby delivers some very hot product, which definitely helps ensure a firm bond. The first test of this was to hold a slightly bowed piece of 3/4" plastic lumber flat against a flatter fir board in order to resurface the plastic lumber through a thickness sander, (to prepare a small sign). The approx 2" dia spot of hot glue not only held the plastic lumber flat against the fir board during the sanding, but tore away some splinters of wood from the fir board during removal. This even after applying denatured alcohol which normally acts as a pretty good release agent for hot glue bond. One of my pet peeves of previous glue guns is the instability of most while on standby. It seems that it was always too easy to somehow tip many of these toy guns over, off the table, under the workbench, etc. This model has addressed standby probably as well as I've seen done. The removable stand under the grip, and the flip down stand under the nozzle, make the standby mode almost "bomb proof" while pretty well staying out of the way while actually gluing. Also this gun while not at all "heavy", is somewhat heavier than most, which also seems to make the standby mode more secure. One con however is the rubber overlay on the palm side of the pistol grip. It is supposed to be held in place by numerous little nubbins fitting into slots in the plastic grip. The nubbins on my model neither seem to fit nor grip, but certainly not a deal breaker. With or without the rubber overlay, for the price, the best glue gun I've encountered.
