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.

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?

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.

Poor container
Lid didn't stay on well. Holes are in package to let air out but lets germs and water in.

A very convenient storage and visible container for quick access to Q-tips cotton swabs
Definitely plentiful container. Gave it a 4 Star because for my taste and expectation - thought it was a tad thin on cotton. Having said that, item arrived un-squashed unlike some other brands. I think price with container and ease of access is on point when compared the clunky-openings of the flat top boxes. If this helps anyone though - Highly recommend maybe a sharp letter opener in hand and tilt sideways as you cut alongside the sealed plastic that folds underneath the lid so you get a smooth cut and not damage the lid.

Cheaply made - no different than generic
sticks are not what they used to be. Manufacturers know what I'm talking about. the cardboard bends too easy and comes apart when just a little wet. Not a premium product at a premium price.

WHAT Happened???
I’ve used QTips for over 73 years, and I would’ve never considered any other brand because QTip was a quality product without compromise. Even during the pandemic, the quality remained unchanged. Unfortunately it seems corporate greed has finally seeped into the familiar blue box! As I recently began using a new box, I was truly shocked to realize that the cotton sticks were so flimsy that they no longer maintained their rigidity even under the slightest pressure!!! Obviously you have a novice brand manager that doesn’t have any idea what product specifications have made QTips a venerable favorite in households like ours for generations! I am EXTREMELY disappointed in the decline of this product and will begin looking for alternative brands. I am laughably “brand loyal”, but your attempt to save money by compromising the product has sent this loyal consumer looking for alternative brands.

Do better
I use only Q-tips because they were the best they did not bend when you used them like the other brands, but I'm so disappointed in the quality of Q-tips now. I use them every day and every day I get more disappointed because the stick bends when you use them and I don't use a lot of pressure I'm cleaning my ears I don't want them to bend.

Reliable, affordable and handy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-tips are one of those simple things I always keep stocked around the house. They are incredibly versatile from cleaning small spaces and touching up craft projects tool applying ointment and make up. I love them for makeup application and touchups, especially when I need to clean up eyeliner or apply products with a little more precision the cotton stay securely on the stick. They are soft and they don’t fall apart easily like some cheaper brands, I would definitely recommend.

Qtips have cut quality down to the bare minimum
I’ve used q-tips my entire life of 60 + years. But I’m done. Y’all have cut the quality so much that it’s like putting a stick with no padding at all in my ear. I’ll find a better product.

Multi-use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Q-Tips have multiple uses. I find a way to use them daily. Most people use them to clean ears, but I also use them to touch up makeup, clean the house, and make art!

Quality is declining
These are declining in quality. They used to be stronger and fuller of cotton. I'm disappointed in the last box I bought. They bend with the slightest amount of pressure.
