Cotton Too 500 Count Organic Cotton Swabs, 2 Pack

OK, I am a cotton swab snob. I've tried others so many times (Wal-Mart, Target and other off-brands) and they are terrible in my opinion when compared to Q-Tips. But, in my effort to be cost conscious, I try every once in a while and frankly, these are quite good. I think overall they are very comparable and much less expensive. So, if there's any other snobs out there like me - give these a try!

Comparing to Qtip brand which is what our household always uses.Packaging was flimsy, a very thin, poorly fitted, cardboard box that did nothing to protect arrived bent, but the inside individual packages arrived undamaged.Cotton is wrapped around stick more firmly compared to Qtips. So less cushiony feel than Qtips, which I prefer for cleaning nostrils, ears, etc.Less cotton wisps coming away, for example, with Qtips, if I retouch lipstick, some cotton will stick to lips. This one has a firmer cotton so you will have a clean wipe.Overall, other than not being a fan of the leopard print, cost and product seem satisfactory.Stick portion is also firm, not bending when pressure is applied.

was a little worried these might be cheap like the offbrands can be but when they arrived i tried them against what we typically use (brand name) and they were very much comparable, side by side you can't physically tell the difference. great product.

I will never economize on cotton swabs again. The cotton on these are not wound tight. In fact, some of the tips just hang off of the sticks. Lose fibers on both ends. Q-tips may cost a little more, but you don’t have to throw half of them away before use.

Update: I tried to use these and be okay with the cotton separating from the stick. I gave them the benefit of the doubt until I pulled one out that was completely missing the cotton tip. These swabs are terrible and you should seek a different brand. I requested a refund.Initial Review - I am always hesitant to but anything other than QTips. I wish I had listened to my inner voice. Just like every other off brand, the cotton comes off the end of these when I twist it in the top of my ear. It's doesn't come all the way off but it is no longer attached to the stick. This results in having to use multiple when one QTip gets the job done. Well, I'm going to keep all 1000 and deal with it but I'll never order anything but QTips in the future

Absolute garbage! Don't waste your time or $ on these! As soon as you try and use them. The cotton starts coming unraveled. Every last one of them!

Literal garbage.If you want the fibers to stay together, then you ought to soak them in water immediately before you use them. Otherwise, if you try to use this without soaking it in water, then you'll end up with cotton falling off the stick.I genuinely feel like it's an unsafe product to put in your ears, and so I've been using them to pick my nose instead.Also, A LOT of the sticks don't even have cotton on both ends. What the heck is that about?? Extremely poor quality control. This has NEVER happened when I've purchased from a grocery/convenience store, evidently there's something severely wrong with your product here.I feel like an absolute idiot for purchasing these ear wax sticks, waste of money unfortunately.Not only is it a poor excuse for a product, it's also heavily overpriced!! I went to the grocery store a week later and discovered that I paid nearly three times more for these garbage Amazon ear wax sticks that fall apart easily/without cotton on both ends.I really wish Amazon would vet their products that they allow these 3rd party businesses to sell. It's starting to feel like I'm purchasing off that "wish" website where everything is poorly made but for a cheap price, and what's worse is that this isn't even cheap!This is happening too often with Amazon, and it's really making me reconsider my subscription with them. I don't want to have to do product research on freaking ear sticks, wtf."Disappointed" is an understatement.

Ok, I never thought I'd write a review for cotton swabs, but these deserve one. First of all, they are leopard print...fun fun! Secondly, the stick is super strong. I hate those flexible sticks, they feel so cheap and can't be used for other purposes that require a little extra control. Third, you get plenty! I have enough to last 4 years and cotton swabs are ridiculously expensive. Lastly, and most important, they ARE MADE IN AMERICA! And ironically enough, in Gastonia, NC which is 15 miles from Charlotte, NC which is where I live!

El principal problema es que cuando los usas se deshacen y a veces no twrminas de usarlo cuando la lo tienes que cambiar, ni tengo duda de que sea organico, pero la verdad se sienten muy corrientes.Y el segundo gran problema es que al no servir como deberían, son muchos y lejos de decir que bueno, el tema es que vas a tener estas cosas por mucho tiempo por ser tantos.

En mi caso venían 2 cajas con 750 piezas cada una, más que suficiente para un uso normal durante un par de años. Buena calidad y ahora que son difíciles de conseguir en tiendas departamentales, son una opción excelente a considerar. El único pero que les pondría, es que no son tan rígidos cómo los anteriores que eran como de plástico, pero de ahí en fuera ninguna queja, tienen buena cantidad de algodón y viene bien compactada. Saludos!

Not satisfied. The quality of this swab is really bad. Cotton comes out easily from stick. This is what you expect with this price. I should go with brand one.

Works perfect! Not as sturdy as a ‘Q-tip’ but once you get used to the strength it’s great! Nice to finally have a natural product. Came from USA, yet still arrived quickly in a few days. Will re-order when needed. Looking for a Canadian brand to order local, but still happy to support our lower half! :)

Great value. Works fine for my purposes. Similar to what you can get from dollar store. Would prefer if the packaging was plastic-free.
