Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Royal makes a fine wood stick cotton swab. It's hard to go back to paper shaft or plastic shaft cotton swabs after one has experienced the really firm control of good quality wood shafts. I simply place some of these swabs in a small mason jar for our...  Read More

They have enough cotton to not let the shaft break through and scratch or cut your ear. Used wood q-tips (with ear-wax) are great to toss in with kindling as fire starters.

These are so much better than the flimsy cardboard ones that are aparently designed for babies or something. It's such a shame that money governs every human endeavour in today's world. The cotton on the ends of the stick is world class!

The product is fine and unavailable locally. The shipping is a bit high but i counter that by buying 2 boxes of 300.



Cons

This product fails measurably at that task. Manufacturer poor quality and durability. They feel inferior in quality.

It is less than half the diameter of other wooden swabs i have used. Don't expect to do anything delicate with these swabs. Some sticks even have zero cotton on an end, only a few strands.

Quality


It is sturdy and very useful for cleaning around the ears, hobbies and crafts.


They are a great product, work great & you can easily toss them in with your compost pile to break down.


This makes them useless for craft projects (such as blending pencil leads in graphite or colored pencils).


The shafts are inconsistent as to thickness, and wood grain direction, so yes, a certain amount of them break, generally in the...  Read More

Price


The product was great and the price was excellent even w/shipping.


Good product for a good price !


I like the woden swabs with a little more cotton on them, for $7.

Competitiveness


That being said, i tried all the other brands i could find and these are the best of whats currently available.


No wood stick cotton swabs of the standard 3" or so length, that are available on the market today, are anywhere near as good a...  Read More


Q-tips are much more stronger but these wood stick brand is even better.


Everything as advertised and better than some other brands, but still not quite as good as original "q tips".

    Ive used other cotton swabs that have extremely variable physical characteristics


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    These by royal are consistent in size with very few 34duds34 in a package


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I need the wooden stick for better control and nothing is more disappointing than a stick breaking under a small amount of pressure


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In fact i would say if anything these royal swabs have been getting better in quality over the last few years


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    These are thinner than others which i like


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They are not as consistently sturdy as the old qtips but apparently neither are the qtips brand that are currently being sold this is based on other reviews of qtips not personal experience


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This product is no longer made by the 34qtip34 people


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I always buy qtips as the plastic stick brands are so cheap that they bend every time i use them
