Durability

Pros:

  • "The Super Tuffloss, which is really durable and effective."
  • "The Floss material used us very rugged and I rarely gave one break on me when flossing."
  • "Many floss picks are weak and break (I have some crowding in my teeth) but these picks hold up strong."
  • "These do not have that issue and my family actually commended me for purchasing these."
  • "engineered not to shred or break & they did not lie."
  • "The Tuffloss material is durable and shred-resistant, ensuring that the floss picks don't break or fray during use."
  • "It's strong, long lasting and doesn't break easily."

Cons:

  • "Almost half of the time, the floss thread splits apart after flossing the first pair of teeth."
  • "The pick thread shreds as you floss."
  • "The line gets weak half way and turns harder to use."
  • "New ones shred on first contact."
  • "The floss breaks within the first couple teeth."
  • "The fiber ruptured every time I use it."
  • "The floss totally falls apart. The thread shreds so bad, it gets into my teeth and I have more gunk in there than before."

Design & Convenience

Pros:

  • "I like that the toothpick stays covered until you open it keeping it safe and clean."
  • "The easy storage makes it simple to keep them around the house and take with me when I'm on the go."
  • "The easy storage with zipper bags is so convenient, makes it perfect to carry in my purse, work bag, lunch bag."
  • "Plus with the fold out pick, its great for getting stuff out of your teeth that the floss might struggle with."
  • "These also allow for one hand operation if you're a multi tasker like me."
  • "The design is exceptional. The compact size of each flosser, combined with the refreshing micro mint flavor, makes the flossing experience not just effective but enjoyable."
  • "One of my favorites is the fold-out toothpick feature - so helpful!"

Cons:

  • "The plastic has a little too much lateral give for me."
  • "The handle is flimsy, and the floss is so thin I need to make multiple passes to get stuff out that's stuck between my teeth."
  • "They are very flimsy. the entire green handle and top that holds the floss part is made of thinner plastic."
  • "The plackers have changed. The tip part is too soft and flexible. It can’t be used for what it’s designed for, pick your teeth."
  • "The new model has thinner string and less sturdy plastic."
  • "The pick is too flimsy and too sharp. It bends after picking a few teeth and the narrow top doesn't help."
  • "Not really sturdy or nice to use, it bends, flex easy and if you introduce it in angle between teeth it will not go in...or out."

Value & Quality

Pros:

  • "Definitely worth the cash you pay for what you get back."
  • "These are super convenient but often when I use this the floss string frays or sometimes small pieces actually get stuck in between my teeth!"
  • "They use quality floss that doesn’t break like the cheap store-brand stuff."
  • "The price is very reasonable. Smiles all around, lol!"
  • "And they're incredibly inexpensive.Highly recommend."
  • "The 300 count pack provides great value for money."
  • "I love these flossers and the price is great."

Cons:

  • "These are not the same quality you buy in the store."
  • "You get what you pay for. The quality is mediocre swinging more towards the lower end."
  • "I ordered the Plackers Dental Floss where the description said “pack of 3” but when the package arrived there’s only 1 pack in the package so I’m missing 2 pack of the dental floss."
  • "Ordering from Amazon, you have to buy 6 packs at a time."
  • "These seem to be getting harder to find in drug stores, which is unfortunate because they are always replaced by another brand's inferior product."
  • "The price is very low, but the threads are very loose on the flossers."
  • "Last year they decided to get cheap with their materials."

Flavor & Sensation

Pros:

  • "The mint flavor of the floss is a big hit! It leaves my mouth feeling fresh and clean."
  • "This product is really great for keeping gums clean and healthy."
  • "The fresh mint flavor is subtle but pleasant."
  • "It tastes great (minty) and doesn't break, so it's easy on the gums."
  • "The mint flavored dental floss is so refreshing, leaving you with fresh breath."
  • "Moreover, the mint flavor leaves a refreshing sensation."
  • "minty flavour smells great."

Cons:

  • "I could have done with a bit more mint taste to give the illusion of clean."
  • "They have a very mild mint flavor, which I could do without, but it dissipates pretty quickly."
  • "I don’t find these to have much of a flavor. There is a hint of mint but nothing overwhelming."
  • "the mint flavour is deposited on the string where you would usually see a tiny green blob on the string, so the mint flavour is easily lost after you flossed 2-3 teeth."
  • "It is a thicker floss than offbrands and actually has a minty flavor."
  • "The mint flavor is refreshing and not too overbearing."
  • "Although it truly has no (to very little) flavor, this floss/toothpick works great!"

Environmental & Packaging

Pros:

  • "Only thing I’ve yet to do is figure out recycling."
  • "The zipper closure bags ensure they're always fresh and easy to store."
  • "The easy storage with the Sure-Zip seal keeps them tidy and fresh."
  • "easily resealable bag helps a lot."
  • "The Sure-Zip Seal makes it convenient for travel."
  • "I really appreciate the features of these dental flossers. The easy storage and 150 count pack are super handy."
  • "This is a really great purchase because of its convenient storage."

Cons:

  • "I wish this product didn’t include non-recyclable plastic."
  • "However, it's important to note that the resealable bag could use some improvement. It tends to lose its seal over time, and its durability is questionable."
  • "They advertised that they have a 'new look' packaging, but Amazon shipped me one with the old packaging so it's not that orange the green package displayed in the picture."
  • "I wish I found this product 20 years ago; I wasted a lot of money on big companies like Oral-B, which always break while flossing."
  • "I DO NOT RECOMMEND, big difference from same style Oral B brand."
  • "These new Plackers flossers are terrible compared to the old purple ones with tape floss."
  • "The amount of Dental floss in there is worth the money!"
