I have never found cyanoacrylate (super glue) to be worth
buying. It's garbage. About the only thing it glues well, are
people's fingers.

Maybe you don't do the same things that everybody
else does... It is useful for all sorts of temporary and
lightweight gluing tasks, especially plastic (permanently).
Gorilla Glue isn't for plastic, so it is a good complement to
that. Uncoordinated people and people with little situational
awareness might have trouble with superglue.

Just because it doesn't work for its advertised uses is hardly
meaningful. It does not repair glass, but it's useful for
temporarily fixing things to glass. The surfaces must be
finely sanded or they must be like plastic that can be melted by
the superglue. You can see vapor rising from it that will sting
your eyes. Removing it from glass is easy with a scraper. But it
damages plastic.

Hope that helps...
