I bought a set of 16 inch circular needles to knit a hat or two while away from home for a few weeks. I already have other knitting needles and didn't want to invest a lot. Each of these circular needles was less than 50 cents at the time of purchase and I found them fully functional. Two of my eighteen needles had a slight roughness on the bamboo that was easily smoothed out with buffer nail polish. The ends are pretty sharp. For a small project like a hat, super flexible plastic cables were no problem. The connection between the cord and the bamboo needles isn't perfectly smooth --- just requires some fiddling with redistributing the stitches (I've had worse using spare needles) I was very happy with the quality of the needles for the price.
