Customers are dissatisfied with the thickness of the eyelid color. They mention that the amount of cotton on each end is not sufficient, the cotton is loose, and the sticks are not as strong as they'd like. Some say the cotton section is not very firm and detaches from the stick. They also say the product has thin cotton that hurts the ear and does not absorb.

I have been buying these for a few years, they're the best value bamboo cotton buds I have found (especially with the extra 12% off for purchasing two).On the odd occasion you may find the odd bud with a lack of cotton wool or that snaps under pressure, but I have found them to be few and far between.They come in 6 packs containing 100 buds each. The plastic bags are my greatest irritation and my reason for 4/5 stars as they aren't needed.
These cotton buds are great value for money however they have a small issue in my experience, sometimes the cotton can detach from the stick and it can be awkward depending on what you're using it for. However, despite this, I still believe these buds are great value for the money and are pretty well built otherwise.
These could do with a bit more cotton, and the sticks aren't as strong as I'd like. When they break, because they don't bend that much, they are a sharp spike. Be super careful with these if you're putting them under any pressure that flexes them. I still preferred the plastic old fashioned ones to these and the paper ones but thicker cotton would be helpful to prevent you feeling the pressure of the wood through them.
These aren’t the best tips (not a lot of cotton wool around tip) but you get loads so not an issue. Bamboo stick feels safe (none snapped yet!!) little plastic box made me giggle given it’s a bamboo product.. (planet friendly) that said I would buy again.
I have always preferred wooden buds, safe for the environment and scratch that itch in the ear :) These are great for the price. You will get 6 packs of 100 each so you can open them at your leisure to use.
Not very strong. When I use them around the outer part of my ear, they snap in half. I can't begin to imagine the worry I would have if they broke inside my ear. I bought these as they're environmentally friendly, but I'll be going back to Johnson's. I won't continue using these.
