🧵 Paracord Planet: Type III 550 Cord - 10, 20, 25, 50, 100ft Hanks & 250, 1000ft Spools Review

When I found out that another order from Paracord Planet was 2 feet smaller, I measured this order. It's also 2 feet shorter than the 100 feet I ordered. I'm a bit beyond annoyed that quality control is so poor for this to happen and I'm wondering if all of their orders are short? I know I need other random colors for other projects and unfortunately Paracord Planet seems to have the best color choices. However, if they treat every order like this, I will definitely shop elsewhere.

This paracord worked well for my needs. This was a gift for my son who is very interested in Bear Grylls activities. It's been around for a long time and is great for making puppy tents, hanging a tarp, tying up little siblings and making a streamer for your dad who gets up every morning to go to work to buy stuff like this for him can little son. . Thank you son for confusing me at 4am and thank you ParacordPlanet for making a product good enough to confuse people. Plus it's just nice to have…

I occasionally buy paracord spools from Paracord Planet. Never had any problems and have always been very happy with it. I walk through a lot of neon green. This time I decided to do a 1000 foot roll. It appeared 10 minutes ago and is not neon green. I would name the color: yellow life jacket. I will use that, but not at the rate I use neon green. As I will be using color to some extent it is too cumbersome to return. But rest assured I'll find another source until they get their things in…

To be fair, I'll say right away that I should have been a lot more careful. I looked at Revain for an elastic cord. Tried elastic cord, hair ties etc. Difficult to find due to circumstances. So I was happy to find it. Before buying it did not occur to me to check whether the cord is really stretched. So shame on me. However, I have to trust that the seller at least has an opinion on how their product is listed on Revain. So it was at least partially deceptive on their part. If you don't need an

I make whips, mostly paracord. I have ordered Paracord Planet before and was satisfied. However, this last order and some of my recent previous orders have been very disappointing as I have cut the length so much. I won't complain. I've never gotten them to go over the limit - they're ALWAYS shorter than the advertised length. As I said, a few centimeters usually don't matter. But that last coil of cable was over 2 feet shorter. If you need a specific whip length, this is important. And the…

Bought and lavender to make a dog leash. I order 2 skeins of 100 feet. One of each color. Salmon is about 8 feet longer than lavender. If you're looking for something specific, get something better. They also don't burn evenly. The inner filaments burn so slowly compared to the outer mantle that they never match and look normal. I also ordered a 50ft skein from Bored? Paracord to wrap handlebars. I ended up making a travel leash for my dog. It's much nicer, burns better, and is true to actual…

TOUGH-GRID on left side. Paracord planet right. As you can see, TOUGH-GRID has 7 inner strands that have 3 smaller, braided strands, each of which should have military grade cord. Also extra thread. Paracord Planet also has 7 strands, but each of these strands is just 2 smaller strands intertwined. NOT MIL-SPEC 550 PARACORD! Not to mention the internal threads aren't as good as TOUGH-GRID. None of this matters for simple paracord projects and crafts. But if you're going for the strength of real

Shorter than the 10ft I ordered. I didn't want to order too much as I only got the tan version which was closer to my skin tone so using it as a hidden neck strap wasn't that obvious so I figured I didn't need a large package. It had to be cut to length for one-time use, never to be needed again. But since it's shorter than what I ordered, I really don't have enough to try a few different lengths without finishing. I thought 10ft would be more than enough, but since I didn't even get 10ft I…
