Durability

Pros:

  • "This elastic is perfect for all jewelry making. It is very strong and durable and easy to work with. I recommend this to anyone who makes jewelry. I will be re-ordering soon."
  • "The elasticity of the cord ensures a snug fit and makes it easy to string beads of different sizes."
  • "It feels very light, great stretchiness, and is extremely strong."
  • "This string is stretchy and easy to use."
  • "This sting is perfect for stretch bracelets. I love how easy the beads slide onto it. Ties off easy and doesn't come apart. Love it!"
  • "This bead cord is really strong and stretch."
  • "I have other stretch strings like this, and they don’t work nearly as well. This is a superior string. It stretches AND ties well."

Cons:

  • "I had to return this. My students tried to make beaded bracelets and this cord kept breaking."
  • "This product easily frays and splits."
  • "The string broke a few times when I tied the knots, making bracelets."
  • "This cord frays so so so bad."
  • "This string freys then breaks VERY easily."
  • "Every bracelet I’ve made with this elastic has snapped."
  • "This string was terrible for bracelet making. It is very weak and breaks easily even with only lightly being stretched."

Ease of Use

Pros:

  • "Simple and straightforward, I purchased it for my grandson's budding jewelry-making career."
  • "Our 11 y.o. Daughter has been interested in making friendship bracelets recently. This set provides a wide variety of colors and enough string to make A LOT of bracelets. This string seems to be better quality than other strings she has from bead kits. The string has just the right amount of stretch and cuts easily. Overall, we are very happy with this set of elastic string."
  • "I’m super pleased with this elastic. I’m using it for little girl brackets to give away and it holds it strength and so far my knots are holding out."
  • "I’ll never buy the stuff in hobby stores or craft sections of Walmart again. This stuff ties easily into knots, no glue needed to secure it."
  • "We used this for making concert bracelets for the Jonas brothers and it was super easy to knot. Held together all night. Super stretchy and thick."
  • "One of the things I like the best about this item is that there is a pull string to find the end of the line."
  • "Easy to use and knot."

Cons:

  • "I used this string for a bead bracelet. It’s very stretchy, durable, but will not stay tight when you make a knot in it."
  • "Unravel what you think you need to use, then give that a bit of a stretch. If you don’t give the stretch before sizing, you’ll be stuck with too large of a piece once it has been stretched."
  • "I just started using this and now the returnis over. it breaks when you stretch it to tie your bracelet and I am sure after many times taking your bracelet on and off it will break as well."
  • "This string is hard to thread beads, it isn't strong and it breaks easily."
  • "It’s a little hard to knot when using for beadwork and don’t want the beads you just strung to slip off."
  • "Would not buy again. Bracelets often fall apart while being made no matter how many starting knots you make."
  • "Doesn't stay tight, even with pre stretching."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "The generous length provides value for money, making it suitable for multiple projects."
  • "These are perfect for bracelets. I love this string because it’s so stretchy. It’s good amount for cheap price recommend I made so many bracelets for my buissness"
  • "The string is pretty cheap compared to other brands I’ve used. You get a lot for your buck."
  • "This is a great value compared to big box store prices!"
  • "Long enough that I think I’ll be able to make a lot of friendship bracelets out of a roll."
  • "I got this to make bracelets for the Eras Tour and it was great quality! I made close to two hundred bracelets."
  • "The Paxcoo Polyester 1mm Elastic Bracelet String Cord is a must-have for jewelry and bracelet making enthusiasts."

Cons:

  • "I bought this hoping to get at least 100 bracelets out of it. It's so much smaller than pictured I'm not sure how many is enough."
  • "Buy a different brand, this brand has a lot less string and isn't worth it compared to the others."
  • "4 of them fell apart before they were even worn."
  • "This is not strong enough to make jewelery with, even when tripled."
  • "This cord is not what I expected for the price. I get better stretchy cord from Walmart, Michaels, and Joanns."
  • "For eight dollars I thought I was getting a giant roll of string and it’s this tiny thing. Extremely unhappy with what I received for the price I paid."
  • "This was a complete waste of money."
