Monarch 925072 Pricemarker, Model 1131, 1-Line, 8 Characters/Line, 7/16 x 7/8 Label Size

This is something I use not for pricing, but for marking expiration dates on stuff like food, vitamins, medications, etc., I'm a little OCD. I used to use a Sharpie, but I noticed it didn't show up very well on darker typed packaging. So, I got the idea to use one of these to see how I would like it. Well, I love it. It makes it very easy to see the expiration dates on the items I mark because of the tag, I use the white tags and black ink. I usually buy things in multiples and depending on how they are being stored, I may just mark the front top of it or the front top and the very top to make it easy to see different directions. The marking gun is easy to use and there are numbers and characters if you need them. It's easy to change what you need by just sliding the little knob in or out and turning it to whatever you want it on. I've probably used it at least 1,000 times so far and that was just within a few days of use. The tags print out sharp and they dispense and stick without problem. It has a good weight to it and feels very sturdy. I'm happy with this purchase and would recommend this to anyone looking for a pricing gun, even if it isn't for pricing.

This price/date gun has held up to all the abuse it has taken from being dropped. I've had it for a couple of months so far and it still functions as brand new. The stickers will jam every once in a while but if you open and close it, it'll reset the alignment and continue to do its' job. Works just as well as the Office Depot brand (which is double the price at Office Depot) that I used months prior to purchasing this one. Also cheaper than the Office Depot brand guns. Bonus is that the labels can also be purchased through Amazon and fit perfectly into the pricemarker. It came packaged in a blister plastic pack and was easy to open. Arrived undamaged and on time! I would recommend these for small business owners and stockers (as myself) who need to mark dates, prices, even includes markings such as $, OFF, LB. The ink roll that came with it has lasted through 4 changes so far but it is recommended to replace the ink roll after 8 rolls of stickers or so.

It’s a good one, doesn’t come with roll or paper..

Works very well, easy to load the labels

There's no need to explain! There's no other price gun on the market that can compare to the quality and performance of this price gun. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

This Monarch 1131 price gun was purchased for use in a small grocery store. At first, we were not too happy because the ink that came with the packaged gun was dried up -don't know if it had been sitting long on the shelf or was a previously used and returned item that we received. However, we replaced the ink cartridge and it now appears to be working fine. In addition, Amazon's customer service handled the matter of the ink to our satisfaction. So far, the gun prints stickers with consistent accuracy in the same spot on the labels (no cut off numbers). Also, it doesn't jam even when using it fast. For certain items -like frozen hot dog packages -I find it is better to just go crazy gently stamping the stickers to your fingers and then peel them off to stick to the odd shaped items. The plain white stickers (that came with the gun) stick fine. You can peel them off if you don't use a lot of pressure, but if you just use a bit more pressure or give them an extra slight press with your finger after applying they won't fall off and customers won't be able to peel them off easily without ripping the sticker. This helps prevent price tampering. The gun seems to be a heavier plastic and the dial knob to adjust the prices seems fine. I would expect this gun to last for at least 2-3 years with reasonable handling and even many more years if you baby it. It could probably handle a few drops, but I'm not going to test that out. The only negative I have at this point is that I find the price a bit high; however, it seems to be in line with the overinflated cost of price guns everywhere. I guess since it is a small industry, the manufacturers can do that. There are Chinese-made price guns that are up to 80% cheaper, but I would not consider buying them. They look like the wouldn't last more than a month. So, if you need a price gun... buy this with confidence. Just tell your workers to not handle it too rough or carelessly. If it doesn't get mishandled or dropped too hard, it should last you quite a while and justify its price.

I have a small plant business and purchased this In July of 2024 and it stopped working well about a year later. Finally getting around to writing this review as it truly isnt a huge priority. I was pretty disappointed with the price gun. After a year of light use, light use being defined as not going through a a whole roll of price stickers, it started getting stuck on the kickback. I did the whole routine suggested on the avery website. Cleaned the discharge, ensured there was no blockage, made sure the cleats are lined up to pull the sticker roll properly, etc. Still no kickback and the stickers have to be pulled out individually so the whole time saving aspect is totally gone and this price machine is just a frustration. Lame.

Monarch is the only one that is a must in our store. We have others but Monarchs are the best for quality and longevity. Buy the value pack of labels on amazon. They work great. Cheap out on labels. Not the gun.

Es de buena calidad, facil de usar y cumple con su objetivo

as expected...the only surprise was the role of white price stickers already loaded in the gun...qty 2500. Bought a role at local Staples, but was able to return it...gun works perfectly and is exactly as advertised….next day delivery was great as i hate waiting 30 days for stuff from China with unreliable tracking info.

El producto llegó abierto y parece estar usado aunque funciona bien seguramente intercambiaron los productos.

Very easy to use and good quality
