    Drop in QUALITY

    I have always used Qtip swabs I am 73 and loved them. BUT.... the quality of the swab stick now is FLIMSY! I cannot use it in the many ways I used to. Even after showering and wiping out ears the swab folds in half. EXTREMELY disappointed in the DROP IN QUALITY. Go back and fix the swabs to their original strength.

    Terrible quality.

    Quality has exponentially dipped over the years. Bends like rubber. Used to be a loyal customer.

    Not what they used to be. How disappointing.

    I have been buying and using this brand of cotton swab For most of my life, I am 56. The last couple of times that I’ve purchased I’ve noticed the stick isn’t as thick or stable as it used to be. I confirmed this when I found a travel case of them that I had. Now, I may as well save some money and buy the cheaper brands, as that is what these have become. Very disappointed. Why all of a sudden would you change them now? How much money are you saving by disappointing your consumers??

    Must buy!

    Good quality, sticks are very sturdy. I use to like the UP & UP version of these but the UP & UP stick quality went down hill after the last year!

    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.

    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.

    No longer a brand you can trust

    I’ve used stop brand for years, but will no longer. They must have had a ‘cost savings’ and changed the strength. They are now very flimsy and bend in half when trying to use them.

    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.

    The aturdy q-tip resurfaces .

    For a couple of years now q-tip brand swans were not useful. They would bend when you tried to use them and the cotton on the end would unravel as you swirl the too. I tried other brands over the last year to see if I could get one that had the strength like the old ones. I ended up trying a-tip brand once again and was pleasantly surprised the box I got had q-tips very much like the ones of yesterday. A great thing.

    Disappointing Change

    Changed for the worse, the sticks now bend. I specifically buy Qtip brand because the sticks would never bend while using, and now they bend just like generic brands. Disappointing. I may as well buy generic now and save the money if I'm getting lower quality.

    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.

    Changed for the worse

    Welp, as with MOST companies these days (Kotex looking at you, among others) they cut the quality down. Why can’t they just stay the same. They’ve been around a long time and without any changes, but now decide to change the quality, by being bendable! They’re not stiff any more, which were great. They also lie and say, RIGHT ON THE PKG, “new look, same great quality”. For real. We’re not stupid yet they treat us like we’ll never know. At this point I’d rather by the off brand now.
