- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 February 2025Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseHave been using Johnson's for all my life as has my wife but they have been getting really soft and bendy of late and we have been looking for something else.
Seen these advertised on here and noticed they are biodegradable which is always a good thing and more importantly they are made with or of bamboo and they don't bend.
And boy do they not, i like to give my ears a damn good cleaning and finally with these you can. Super stong and sturdy and yes they bend a little but that's with a lot of force placed through them.
Found our new everyday cotton bud and yes they are on the expensive side, but well worth it.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 May 2025Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseExcellent quality, product as described and price certainly fair too. Love the nice nod for our planet with biodegradable materials.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 June 2025Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseSturdy and thickness are great, good quality material and does the job, I hate those that blend easily, with these, will not happen
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 April 2025Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseGood quality bamboo buds. Work as expected.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 March 2025Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseI was looking for something, which was more environmentally friendly, while being less flimsy, than the common plastic style. This is the case, in general. The bamboo cotton buds do the job and are definitely worth the money. I would recommend them, but with a caution:
I find the common style bend too easily, when trying to use them. So, I thought these would be perfect, considering they are bamboo. However, my concern is that the bamboo snaps, if you apply pressure. I know they are not recommended for using inside the ear canal, but like most people, it is why I use them. There are a couple of occasions, where I was a little to eager and the bud snapped inside my ear. Luckily, I was able to retrieve the broken part, without pushing it any deeper. I think it's just something to be mindful of, when using these or anything similar.
Overall, these are fit for purpose and are better for the environment. They do the job, which they advertise, but just be careful, when applying pressure, because they do snap easily. I was trying to find something that didn't bend, like the plastic buds do, but these snap instead. So, just be careful and gentle, regardless of what you use them for.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 June 2025Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseSoft, sturdy, and gentle — these bamboo cotton buds feel way better than the plastic ones.
I definitely didn't use them on my ears

5.0 out of 5 stars Pratici e ben realizzati
Size: 200 Count (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseOttimo. Ne ho provati tanti (li uso per ligiene delle orecchie), e questi sono fra i migliori. Capocchiette di cotone che non si sfilacciano, riposti in una pratica scatoletta richiudibile orizzontalmente, in modo da prenderli per il bastoncino e nn per la testa.
