Review on Add Sparkle to Your Christmas Tree with BBTO 39.4 Feet Mixed Color Tinsel Garland – Pack of 6 (Red, Green, and Gold) by Ryan Pal

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not as pretty as you think and it stinks like hell

This tinsel is sealed and when you open it it stinks like hell. I bought it for the banister of our stairs and every time I walked up the stairs I would hold my breath for fear of inhaling a little smell. Luckily the smell has gone now. Overall I'm disappointed as it's not as nice and thick as in the photo. I'm attaching comparison photos of the tinsel I bought from Vons. I bought three pieces of tinsel in Vons for $6 at a sale in Vons (a few days before Christmas), otherwise it would have been about $21. All in all, it's about as long as the three pieces of tinsel you get. So for the same length and price as tinsel, you get much worse tinsel here. For me personally, the main thing about tinsel is that it looks bright, so the quality of the workmanship is very important to me. No decoration looks worse than bright tinsel if you ask me. Well-made quality tinsel is beautiful, however, as you can see from the gold/silver tinsel I drew for comparison. It's not as festive as I thought it would be, but could work better for a silly/stupid theme king and should be priced accordingly in my opinion.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • I don't really like anything, everything is fine
