I use this just occasionally. Didn't use it for a long time, and it seems that the glue has become stuck inside. It heats up, but apparently the melt chamber is not long enough, so that there is no way to force out the old glue, even when set on high power. I think that's a poor design.

This glue gun doesn't have enough heating power to melt the glue sticks. I had to wait 10 minutes before I got anything to come out and it felt like the trigger was going to break since it was weak and I had to put so much pressure on it to finally get anything out. Returned.

This review is from: Stanley Bostitch Glueshott Dual Melt High/Low Temperature Glue Gun (GR25) (Tools & Home Improvement)

This glue gun has aided in the assembly of countless school projects, toy repairs, and household duties. Using the trigger, it is easy to control how much glue is emitted. It would rate 5 stars except my granddaughter's dog pulled it off the counter, breaking the stand. We had been babying the stand for awhile, as it is the weak spot in the design of this glue gun. Not only is it vulnerable at the site of the hinge, but the plastic the stand is made from seems to be more flimsy than the body of the gun itself. However, the glue gun itself wasn't damaged by the fall. Even better, it didn't leak hot glue when it fell. Although it is less convenient without its stand, we continue to use it, and have had no problems with leaks or clogs.
