I've bought other elastic brands, but none that seem as qualitative. Other elastic band brands (say that 10x fast) have proved alternatively dried out, inconsistently sized, of ultra-thin width, broke easily, and/or, offered little stretch.In contrast, THIS brand's bands have maintained their integrity even when years old, function EXACTLY as they're supposed to, and come in vivid, multi-hued jewel-tone colors. For this critical customer, they register as a 'No Regrets Purchase.'And, no one gifted these to me, nor am I being paid to write this review. I am truly THIS enthusiastic about a simple rubber band; go figure...

I worked in an outdated company, where my sole job was to digitize years and years and YEARS worth of paper documents and bring the company into the Now Timesâ„¢ï¸. These rubber bands were perfect for binding stack after stack of ancient scrolls and tomes together as they awaited their inevitable end (via shredder).Due to COVID, I began working from home. My office moved to my comfy house desk, and my coworkers became..... well, cats. And if cats love anything, it's playing with trash not meant for them! Thus, my giant rubber bands became giant cat toys. I would slingshot these bad boys down the hall, and my coworkers would LOSE IT. Rubber bands quickly became Marshall's go-to toy! He'd carry them around, sleep with them, hide them for later. It was all good fun!But... I felt the need to hire a new employee. Eugene came fully vetted and his previous employers sang his praises! I thought it was a perfect match. However, they failed to mention his one flaw. Eugene likes to eat everything. EVERYTHING. If it will fit in his throat, he's going to swallow it. Even metal! In the days since this fateful incident, I've caught him with knives, wrenches, scissors, and screws in his mouth. Just walking around with KNIVES. An HR nightmare.Unfortunately, not armed with this knowledge, I let him go about his business unsupervised. I caught him chewing on one of Marshall's precious rubber bands... Oh no! Never experiencing a cat actually GNAWING on the rubber band, I decided it would be best to take all of them and put them away.But..... do you remember how Marshall liked to stash them???Marshall uncovered a rubber band, offering it to his new friend. Eugene then chewed the band until it was one long SEVEN INCH STRAND. Then, I imagine, he ate it Lady and the Tramp style. Except instead of a cute little kiss, he was greeted with tummy aches and surgery. All of this happening within his first week of employment!!!The vets pulled out the entire 7 inch strand, fully intact, as though it wasn't just sitting in stomach acid for who knows how long. Amazing! The color was still a vibrant blue. Astounding!Although these rubber bands are the best rubber bands I've ever owned, I sadly had to cut them up, throw them into a trash bag, throw the trash bag into the dumpster, and stand watch until the garbage truck hauled them away. I can no longer use hair ties - only thick fluffy scrunchies. My life has changed since Eugene came into my life, not necessarily always for the better, but his cute little face makes up for the fact that I can no longer keep my papers bound together.

I really appreciate the large size and I use them for a variety of things all over the house. The fun colors are an added Plus. They hold up and they do the job. I'm happy with my purchase.

I do jigsaw puzzles and these rubber bands are perfect. They don't break even after a few years in a closet on a puzzle. My 2nd time buying them.

I play rubber band fetch with my Dutch shepherd…just tie a little loop on one end, makes them very easy to shoot. Once you teach them not to chew up the rubber band, and if you have a dog who enjoys this play safely (doesn’t swallow, etc.), it’s a lot of fun.These bands are nice and sturdy. I use them for other things as well.I tried a different brand, and boy was that a mistake. There were a lot more bands in the bag, but they were flimsy and broke easily. They also had a yucky “red†color that was very hard to see in the grass. Always true that you get what you pay for.I couldn’t wait to be finished with that bag so I could order these again. So happy to have them back, and will just keep ordering this brand when we need them.

Good size and elasticity. I use these for holding games like Scattergories closed when I take them to a gathering. Works well and I don’t lose pieces.

I got these bands to wrap around packs of frozen vegetables in my freezer and chose silicon to not break when they're frozen. So far, not one has broken in over 7 months of use. I use them when I don't empty a bag of frozen food (any type) and instead of clips I need to close the bags to put back in the freezer. So I just wrap one of these bands around it a couple of times and voila! Bags are safely closed until next time. These work perfectly.

Love these file bands!! They are long lasting and very durable. I use them over and over. The bright colours are great to brighten up my day! There are only three colours though, blue, pink and orang. Would love to see some purple, yellow, red, green, etc. Definitely a great product though, well worth the money.

We needed these for the office, mainly for placing around a file of papers. We’ve been searching for ages for this exact type.Great colours and good quality.
