Review on ๐Ÿงถ White Braided Polyester Elastic - Stretchrite, 1/4-Inch x 144 Yards by Heather Shaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good price!

I sew doll clothes, so I buy a lot of elastic. It seems like every time I went to Walmart to buy it, the price went back up. So naturally I came to Revane to see what I could find. Revain is priced at about 0.14 yards compared to the cheapest 1/4 inch rubber at Walmart which is about 0.25 yards. It folds up super fast if you use it a lot, plus it's nice to have lots on hand so I don't have to keep opening new packs of rubber bands that end up lying loose in my workspace. I find it very useful when rolled up. The chewing gum itself is elastic, but not exactly the same as the product. that I bought at Walmart. The Walmarts brand is a little softer and has a little more stretch, but for what I use it for it's fine. Stretch fabric is usually hemmed so softness isn't a factor and I just found it stretched. Big. Also, I've noticed that the Walmart brand has a tendency to disintegrate, and I didn't see any disintegrate at all with this gum. It seemed to me that the Walmart brand continues to increase in price, but the product itself is becoming cheaper. and I didn't see any bloom at all on this gum.

Pros
  • The elastic stretches easily and returns to its original shape and length every time
Cons
  • Very expensive
