Adhesion

Pros:

  • "They adhere to themselves firmly, offering reliable support without causing pain during removal—a crucial feature, particularly when dealing with sensitive or injured areas."
  • "Self adhesive when overlapping onto itself and stays put."
  • "It is just stretch enough to conform to what you are wrapping it around (arm, leg, ankle, foot. etc.) & sticks well to itself."
  • "They stay on very well without actual adhesive and remain as tight as when first applied."
  • "The adhesive works very nicely and I have also found I could re-use it if I needed."
  • "It adheres well to itself without being painfully sticky to the skin."
  • "These adhere VERY well, stretch nicely and, of course, the cool colors don't hurt! Definitely recommend."

Cons:

  • "Not very sticky. (barely adheres to skin or to itself)."
  • "This wrap does not stick to itself like it should and comes loose from her leg almost as soon as she stands up."
  • "Reposition or let it touch anything and it won’t stick."
  • "I was disappointed with how sticky it is. Because, it's not all that sticky."
  • "I have only used a few rolls over the last 6 months and all of the sticky adhesive is gone."
  • "It doesn’t stick like typical vet wrap… it’s basically an ace bandage with no way the keep it secure."
  • "This product is not self adhesive, will only work for a short time then lets go completely and can not be re stuck."

Quality and Comfort

Pros:

  • "These work wonderfully, and are much cheaper than you can purchase in the healthcare industry."
  • "Great value for the coband tape."
  • "The same quality as found at CVS but for a much lower price."
  • "These are just as good, or better than drug store versions that cost way more. They adhere very well, and the tension in the stretch is exactly right."
  • "Very happy with this product. Decent value and very good quality. Great selection of colors. Stretchy and adheres very well."
  • "What a great find! These wraps are so expensive in the supermarket and pharmacy. The quality is excellent!"
  • "I really like these bandages because they hold very well."

Cons:

  • "Became uncomfortable due to the stiffness."
  • "However, it's *definitely* not cushioned so I found it painful to wear wrapped around my foot."
  • "This product is quite stiff and somewhat scratchy."
  • "Broken ankle and needed compression. Bought these (sadly). They are quite scratchy over my several healing incisions."
  • "Very thin and doesn't stay in place well compared to the self adhesive tape from the vet's office."
  • "The bandage ends up being hard and less flexible than regular self adhesive bandages."
  • "This wrap was ok but balled up very easily while wrapped it gathered together and is hard to stretch."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Comes with A LOT and great value for your money, we needed to cover a finger and didn't need this much but it's nice to have just in case."
  • "A+ - would buy again ... but won't need to for years (I hope), as there's a LOT of bandage in this package."
  • "Very pleased with product and cost."
  • "One of these is $3-$4 in Wal-Mart so to get 6 for $9 is a great value."
  • "I am happy to get so many for such a good price."
  • "I bought them here for a cost of approximately $1 each, when I typically spend $3-5 each."
  • "You get so much more for your money."

Cons:

  • "What I disliked about it is I'm allergic to it! And I disliked the fact that this 6 pack is only 3in x 5 ft instead of 3in x 5 yards."
  • "Add suggests the rolls are 3 in. by 5 yds, but the rolls aren't anywhere near 5 yds as they are more roll holder than wrap."
  • "A little dishonest on the 5 yards in length when unstretched comes in under 5 ft."
  • "The product is good. It works well. However, the description is wrong. It says each roll is 5 yards, but they are really 5 feet."
  • "Confusing listing. Title claims 3 inches by 5 feet. Multiple places in description claim length is actually 5 yards."
  • "These are not 5 yards /15 feet. It barely went around my Labradors head three times and he isn't Clifford."
  • "We only get about one use per roll. Not the deal we thought it was."

Scent and Hypoallergenic Properties

Pros:

  • "Love colors. Beats bandaids and their adhesive that makes me itch and turn red."
  • "Purchased because my daughter is allergic to almost all adhesives. These don't leave a rash or welts on her and she loves the colors for the most part."
  • "Some people have mentioned a smell in reviews, but my batch just smells mildly of rubber."

Cons:

  • "SMELLS LIKE THE BASEMENT OF A 100 YEAR OLD HOSPITAL WHERE FORMALDEHYDE AND A HORROR FILM MEET A HOOKER."
  • "Certain colors smell very strong and leave a film on your hands that stays even after wasting and tastes TERRIBLE."
  • "This product is fine and all and does its job, but the adhesive reeks. It smells like rotten chocolate and chemicals."
  • "The only thing is they a funky smell when you first open them."
  • "Also, even after hours opened, the bandage stinks like a sweet pipe tobacco."
  • "The dyes smell really bad. Esp the purple. Like makes u wanna vomit."
  • "The packaging was soaked... the wrap itself has a foul odor."

Color and Design

Pros:

  • "I also love the neon colors...perfect for any age!!"
  • "The bright colors are cheerful and alert others that there is an owie here."
  • "I love the colors as well. I have to wrap my legs every day, and it's nice to have a little color to go with my outfits!"
  • "With a rainbow of colors in each pack, consisting of 6 bandages measuring 3 inches by 5 yards, they add both practicality and vibrancy to wound care."
  • "Love these! For us, for the dog."
  • "The variety of different colors was a bonus as well."
  • "Hey if you have to use these, then you might as well have some color."

Cons:

  • "I brought these cling wrap bandages because of the colors especially pink. But unfortunately the color pink was not in the package I got 2 red colors instead of a red and pink."
  • "However, the colors are nowhere near as vibrant as the picture shows them to be."
  • "Great adhesion and colors but not enough on each roll in my opinion."
  • "They are very good. I did have some issues the Red roll doesn’t adhere at all. And the pink isn’t dark enough to not see through."
  • "It gets very thin when you stretch it just a little."
  • "Love the colors, but stretch doesn't give enough and the adhesion tackiness is poorer than other brands I've used."
  • "I took them out of the package and they all smelled like fish."
