Most correction tapes click as you pull them because a ratchet stops the reel spinning backward. PLUS redesigned that ratchet around a silent gear (静音ギア) at the back of the case, and Impress Watch reports PLUS's figure of about 90% less running noise. ## How big is it, and how much tape does it hold? **PLUS lists a 76 × 16 × 36 mm body holding 12 m of 5 mm tape.** | PLUS Whiper Quiet | PLUS Japan's figure | |---|---| | Size | 76 × 16 × 36 mm (3 × 0.6 × 1.4 in) | | Tape | 5 mm × 12 m (0.2 in × 39 ft) | | Body colors | Navy, purple, pink, green | | Codes (navy) | WH-2105, order code 52-841, JAN 4977564808914 | | Refill | WH-2105R, 5 mm × 12 m | | Material | 86% recycled resin; body case 100% recycled PS | | Japan price | ¥363 (about US$2.30); refill ¥220 (about US$1.40), incl. tax | That 12 m is twice the 6 m in PLUS's Whiper MR and Whiper Petit, as cited in our [correction tape guide](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/best-correction-tape/), in a body small enough for a pencil case. ![Tape per cartridge to scale: Whiper Quiet 12 m × 5 mm against 6 m × 5 mm in the Whiper MR and Whiper Petit](https://stationerytimes.com/images/plus-whiper-quiet-tape.svg) *Tape length per cartridge: the Quiet holds twice as much as the two smaller Whipers.* ## What else is different about it? **It keeps PLUS's Whiper features: a mini roller head, thin Usu-sara (薄さら) tape, reverse mode and a cap built into the body.** The roller head turns on the paper, so the tape runs straight and smoothly, PLUS says. Impress Watch reports the Usu-sara tape's white layer is 11% thinner than PLUS's earlier tape, so it leaves less of a step and pens don't scrape it when you write over it. Reverse mode means you flip the tape to see a single character as you cover it. ## What award did it win? **A Good Design Award 2026, award number 26G030118.** The judges wrote that the click everyone ignores can feel loud in a library or a test, and praised PLUS for tackling the mechanism itself for students. See the full list of [Good Design Award 2026 stationery winners](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/good-design-award-2026-stationery-winners/), which includes two more PLUS products. ## How does it compare with the Tombow MONO? **The Whiper Quiet holds more tape and is refillable; the [Tombow MONO Original](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/tombow-mono-correction-tape/) is the easy US buy.** Tombow lists the MONO Original at 4.2 mm × 10 m, single use. Choose the Quiet if noise or refills matter and you don't mind importing it; choose the MONO for a US store shelf. ## Who is it for? **Anyone who corrects notes where silence matters: study rooms, libraries, exam halls and coworking spaces, which are the places PLUS and Impress Watch name.** The G Mark judges single out students, for whom a neighbor's clicking can break concentration in a test. It also suits heavy users, because 12 m per refill means fewer swaps, and the refill costs less than a new dispenser in Japan. ## Can you buy it in the US? **Not when we checked on October 23, 2026.** We found no Amazon.com or other US listing for the WH-2105; Amazon.com sells other PLUS Whiper models through import sellers. At ¥363 (about US$2.30), it falls in our $ band (under $5) in Japan; buy it from Japanese stores through a proxy service. ## Where is the Whiper Quiet made? **PLUS doesn't say.** Its product page, item list and launch coverage give no country of manufacture; PLUS Corporation is based in Tokyo. ## Frequently asked questions ### Why do correction tapes click? Most use a ratchet that stops the take-up reel turning backward, and its pawl clicks as you pull the tape. Impress Watch reports that the Whiper Quiet uses a new ratchet built on a silent gear, which still stops the tape running backward but without the click. ### Is the Whiper Quiet refillable? Yes. It takes the WH-2105R refill, 5 mm × 12 m, at ¥220 (about US$1.40) including tax in Japan, per PLUS. ### Can you write over Whiper Quiet tape straight away? PLUS says yes. Its thin Usu-sara tape has an 11% thinner white layer than its earlier tape, so pens are less likely to scrape it when you write over it, per Impress Watch. ### What is reverse mode on a correction tape? Turning the dispenser over so you can see the letters as you cover them. PLUS says the Whiper Quiet supports it for correcting a single character. ### What colors does the Whiper Quiet come in? Navy, purple, pink and green bodies, all with the same 5 mm white tape, per PLUS Japan's item list. ### Is the Whiper Quiet sold in the US? Not that we found on October 23, 2026. PLUS sells other Whiper models through import sellers on Amazon.com, but not this one. ### Is the PLUS Whiper Quiet made in Japan? PLUS doesn't say. Its product page and item list give no country of manufacture; PLUS is a Tokyo company. ## Sources - [PLUS Japan: ホワイパークワイエット (product page: silent gear, mini roller head, Usu-sara tape, reverse mode, built-in cap)](https://bungu.plus.co.jp/product/correct/refillable/whiper_quiet/) - [PLUS Japan: ホワイパークワイエット item list (WH-2105, order codes 52-841 to 52-844, JAN, ¥363; WH-2105R ¥220; materials; W76 × D16 × H36 mm)](https://bungu.plus.co.jp/product/correct/refillable/whiper_quiet/item.html) - [Impress Watch: プラス、走行音90%低減の修正テープ「ホワイパー クワイエット」 (October 22, 2025; launch October 28, 2025)](https://www.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/2056789.html) - [G Mark gallery: ホワイパークワイエット, Good Design Award 2026 (26G030118)](https://www.g-mark.org/gallery/winners/34277) - [JDP, GOOD DESIGN AWARD: 2026年度受賞結果](https://www.g-mark.org/learn/past-awards/gda-2026/results)
