Review on ZXUY 18 Pairs 16-inch (40cm) Circular Carbonized Bamboo Knitting Needles Set (2.0mm - 10.0mm) by Carla Anderson

These needles made my first attempt at knitting socks easy. They are very smooth for the transition between the piece of plastic tubing and the needle - they don't stick an iota, unlike the brands you can find in Joann's and Walmart stores. Even on the smallest needle they seem pretty strong, but of course don't press too hard, it's just wood. Each of them has its own size, printed in millimeters on a single needle. One needle is also lighter than the opposite needle, which is very handy for the magic circle to remember which one to pull (at least that's what I've noticed so far). The ONLY downside to these needles I can say is that they smell very, very much like the plastic used for the tubes. For example, it smells strongly on the hands. I hate those smells because frankly they make me sick, but I'm also particularly sensitive to smelly plastic. In my experience, these smells go away over time, so hopefully they go away quickly. But for €6 you really can't complain.
