  They were fine for as long as they lasted. But they started cracking one after the other, and now even the last one has cracked. Financially, they didn't turn out too bad, I don't think there would have been much of a price difference if I had bought packs of disposable straws. But if you do get them, make sure to have a backup pack for when they break. If only one was cracking, I would say it's a material flaw, but since all 4 broke, they obviously last around 4 to 6 months. Unless it was just a bad batch of bamboo that wasn't suitable for these straws.

  Everything was fine until one day I heard a strange noise and saw it breaking. So suddenly, inside the empty glass. It was a bit creepy

  Obviously, it doesn't have the same feel as a straw, but you can drink coffee and other beverages just fine. It's easy to clean with the brush. It contains 4 pieces of different diameters.

  Excellent. They have no "taste" at all, they seem durable. They don't all have the same diameter but that seemed excellent to me, since you have both for Freddo and for Milkshake.

  I bought them because of the good reviews. Unfortunately, they spoil very quickly and the brush is difficult to use. I will trim some bristles to make it easier to come out and I will inform you about the hack.

  It is really excellent. They do not all have the exact same diameter, but it is not reasonable to expect them to be identical considering they are a natural product. They are durable, with the right length to be more practical, they do not alter the taste of the drink at all, and they are not as hard as metal ones. The negative aspect is the brush that personally took a lot of effort to pass through the holes (be careful - the first time should be thorough as bamboo pieces need to be removed from the inside), and the fibers were permanently distorted. If it was more suitable, I would give it 5 stars.

  Excellent eco-friendly choice for reducing plastic usage! Easy to clean, they don't break, alter the taste, and they last a long time. I have had them for a while now and use them almost daily!

  Well, I have tried all the materials of eco-friendly straws, like bamboo it's the best! It doesn't get soggy, it doesn't break, you don't risk breaking a tooth. They have a nice smooth coating but also the flexibility of wood so that the biters can play for hours! :D

  Very good quality bamboo, day and night compared to others I had bought earlier. They have a glossy texture like the exterior of a bamboo cane that has not dried. In the pictures I have uploaded, you can also see the old one (I don't remember the brand but it was much cheaper) after about 7-8 months of use (almost daily), it has become like wood.
  These specific ones seem like they will last over time.

  They have a very good brush for cleaning them, I haven't noticed any change in the taste of the drink and the engraved logo they have is nice. They are all the same size/diameter, perfect for coffee.

  I didn't find any negatives except for one straw that was slightly crooked, but that's natural, so you expect it. 1/4 had a small crack that hasn't affected it so far.

  ---
  Update: At around 5-6 months with almost daily use, and also washing them in the dishwasher a few times, they start to darken. At 12 months, 2 of them have slightly opened at the edges. However, they are still functional. Without a dishwasher, the condition will probably be better.

  I didn't like the metal and paper straws, but I wanted to switch from single-use plastic ones, so I decided to give these a try. They're fine, without any weird feeling on the teeth and without leaving any taste. The only "negative" thing is that it requires a few "brushings" first with the brush that comes with the packaging in order to remove any residue before using it.

  They are very useful and convenient. It is the perfect solution for an eco-friendly, reusable straw.
  Since I already have other bamboo straws, I know that at some point they wear out and need to be replaced, but it's hardly a problem because they last a long time (about a year with daily use) and as waste, they are organic matter on one hand and bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on the other.

  100% recommended
