Review on πŸŽ„ Bulk Set of 100 Shiny Silver Chrome Christmas Ornament Hooks - Decorative Swirl Scroll Design - Approx 2 Inches Long - BANBERRY DESIGNS by Robert Ewing

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poor quality control, sharp edges, not flat but at least solid

I bought these as I make sun catchers/glass decorations and needed a hook to attach to the details. Unfortunately they are all bent/deformed and many of them have sharp ridges on the cut ends that pierce the skin (see red circle in photo - the cut end is very sore!). At first I thought they were deformed because they were packed in a tangled bag when they arrived (see photo). However, after spending a few minutes unraveling some of them, it turns out that the quality control in their manufacture just isn't very good. None of them lay flat, which is important to me when attaching them to my flat glass decorations. They also have nicks/lumps/flats that appear to be caused by a pair of pliers or cutting tool being pinched in random places. They also don't have the same shape, so some curls/ends are big and others are small. I hate only leaving negative comments so at least I can say they are made from thick wire and seem to be sturdier than others I've used so should work fine as regular jewelry hooks. Keep your pliers handy as you will likely need to make adjustments to the thin end if you want to add your embellishments. I don't usually read reviews about something like this, but I think I will in the future after this experience.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • No paint needed
