Review on Vickerman 24-inch Red Nylon Decorative Christmas Bow, Ideal for Indoor and Outdoor Use by Heidi Ward

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Disappointed - UPDATE: NOT THAT MORE

Color is faded unlike the photo. "Red" cannot be called. The fabric is thin, almost plastic. The support base is made of wire, and the wire ends are pierced into the material and feel sharp. It's likely to break and we'll be lucky if it lasts a season on our outdoor wreath. For $50 we are very disappointed to say the least. But it's too late to bring it back and look for another one. UPDATE: This first season we used it outside of our home. It held up well and did NOT tear like I feared (we live in North Carolina so there are no harsh winters). The negatives mentioned above couldn't be seen from afar, apart from the pallor of the color, but I learned to accept them. I would prefer burgundy. It is problematic to store because it does not bend or fold. I don't think I would buy it again for $50 but I want to update my opinion on it as it's not as bad as I initially said. We'll probably use it again next Christmas unless we find something better.
