Q: Are these the kind of Q-tips with a more wooden, harder kind of stick or the plastic sticks kind that are easily bendable? Thank you very much!
submitted by JJAlex13 - 1 year ago
A: Thanks for asking! Our sticks are made from a specially wound or rolled paper that is manufactured to retain its form while allowing for flexibility and safety during use. We hope this helps.

Q: What changed with these tips recently? They used to be harder sticks and not bend and now they bend too easily.
submitted by Dee08 - 5 months ago
Q: Do your Q tips contain any plastic? Also, why are your representatives deflecting in previous questions and not answering the stated questions?

The quality was poor that has no difference comparing to a no name brand. The cotton was loose and come off all the time.

We recently bought a box of Q-Tips and were horrified at the poor quality of them. Not sure if they value enginered them or not but the quality and amount of the cotton was inconsistent and usually not sufficient and the cardboard shaft was flimsy and bent very easily. We have been long time Q-Tip users and were happy to pay more for them as they WERE a quality product but now they seem to be no better than any of the other products on the market.

Used to be that I insisted on qtips brand, because others had some swabs in each pack that barely had cotton coverage. Now qtips aren't much better...please go back to consistent cotton coverage.

I have found with the last box of qtips, which I’ve been using for over 50 years, Don’t have the same amount of cotton on the tips. However, the price has not gotten cheaper. Very disappointed!
Affordable!

I always use Q-Tips Cotton Swabs because they are soft and gentle on my ears. They are perfect for everyday use, whether for cleaning or touch-ups, and I love how high-quality and reliable they are.

These are the only qtips we like because they don't bend and fall apart!! The cotton is nice and thick on it and not falling off. Durable and absorbent as well.

With my daughter being a dancer these are great to help with small make up corrections. Also, great for cleaning smaller cracks & crevasses! My favorite brand by far

No difference between this and dollar store ones. They use to be fluffy and soft , now they hurt your ears. Please go back to the older version.

Angie G - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
The sticks are no longer firm/stiff. They bend with the slightest pressure, which makes them ineffective when scratching that ear itch. Might as well buy the cheaper, non-name brand and save a few bucks for the same quality as Q-tips is now. Very sad indeed. Won't purchase anymore.

I love Q-Tip cotton swabs! These help make my ears feel clean and dry after showers. They are cushiony and not uncomfortable in my ear like other Q-Tips. I would recommend for the price that these are!

I have used this product for decades.The Q-tips with the “new look” have less cotton on them and I have found some with one end without cotton. They are not as advertised on the package “same great quality”.

You might as well change marketing to tooth picks because your quality has clearly decreased yet not you’re prices… do better.
