Hot glue guns - any recommendations?
David Jenkins - 20/12/11 at 04:46 PM

I've had a little hot glue gun (branded as 'Bostik' ) for many years and it's useful occasionally. Trouble is, modern glue sticks are slightly smaller than the ones that came with the gun, so it won't feed the sticks properly. As this was a cheapie, I thought I'd buy myself a decent one that used standard general-purpose glue sticks. Trouble is - all I can find are more cheapies, or industrial (expensive) models.

Anyone recommend a decent one at a reasonable price?

I bought mine, a "Power Craft" from local diy store for £1.50 and it works just fine. No need to spend a lot if it is for occasional use.

Me too, most important thing is to buy lots of glue sticks in aldi/lidl as they are super cheap or you'll be cursing when you run out and have to give £3.99 for 4 in b&q!
