Lost quality
I only by Q-tip brand q-tips and these are NOT the same. The quality has gone down and I notice! The sticks bend and there is less cotton in the tips. Please fix or I will seek another brand.

Q-Tips brand isn’t what they used to be.
Used to be a product that I only bought name brand because the other brands were cheap and the sticks were flimsy. Now I don’t think it even matters. Might as well buy the cheap ones because Q-Tip brand has joined them in producing crap products. Should have written this review sooner or emailed the company years ago. It’s boon happening for far too long.

Poor quality
I have always used this brand but am very disappointed with the quality. Unfortunately I have had way to many that have no cotton on it. It seems to be getting worse. I typically buy the 750 ct, but will most likely change brands.

Q-Tips brand cotton swabs are a name you can trust. Excellent quality and versatile uses, such as applying make up and also for arts and crafts. They are a household staple.

Quality decline
I am writing to express my disappointment in your product. The quality of the product - Q-tip- is horrible. I cannot use a Q-tip without it bending, and the cotton tip is smaller. I have used your brand (original cardboard kind) my whole life because they were good quality until now. I understand companies are cutting back to save money (despite price not going down) but this will cause me to now try another brand. Very disappointed and dissatisfied in your product.

Quality Reduced
The swabs in my latest box of Q-tips are NOT like the nearly 100 or more boxes I've purchased before! The cotton tip has shrunk significantly! The Q-tip is no longer soft and comforting! The swab feels painful like any generic plastic stick brand. I plan on pointing this out to anyone else who'll listen. Why pay for the Q-tip name anymore when there is no value in it?

Great swab!
Generous amount of cotton on tip so no harm to inner ear.

One sided
I bought 2 boxes . One side has cotton the other is literally a sharp object. How can 3 boxes be like this?

Somethings wrong, quality and material is gone
I decided to purchase again even though the last pkg I bought was horrible, (sticks breaking or easily bending while cleaning ears, 50% of pkg had missing cotton on ends or very minimal) I just figured I got a bad batch and since I've been dedicated to only using Qtip Brand for 10+ years. Well, the 2nd pkg was basically the same quality and same flaws. So I have come to conclusion this isn't a bad batch or batches, this clearly screams this brand has decided to cut back on quality and material. I even went out on the web to see if other buyers noticed a change and there are so many complaints matching the same concerns I have addressed. I will not be buying Qtip brand anymore until I hear they have addressed this issues. Id be better off buying equate or up & up.

Mid cotton swaps
These fall apart quite easily. The generic brand is MUCH better.
