Zen Bundles Zen Pipe Cleaners Hard Bristle, 132 Count (Pack of 3),Yellow

These are the good pipe cleaners - they have the hard bristles that help get the gunk out of tight places.

Wonderful for cleaning my briar pipes on daily use, but watch out for those metal/hard bristles. Easy to prick your fingers while easily daily cleaning your pipe. I run two through my pipes and stems after each use and am pleased at the way they clean out doddle.

Let me get this out of the way to start with: these are literal pipe cleaners. For cleaning pipes. Don't buy them for your baby to play with then give a one star review because you didn't pay attention to what you were buying. They're pretty much the same as other pipe cleaners I have had, except for the extra-stiff bristles mixed in among the fuzz. I don't know what some people are talking about, saying these spikey hairs are dangerous. I pinched the pipe cleaner as hard as I could and it didn't break the skin or even hurt much. It's like touching a brillo pad more than touching a rose stem. There's definitely a scratchiness but it's not harmful. Perhaps those who got cut encountered a staple in their packaging? Anyway these bristles help scrub and lift grime so your gross chore of cleaning tar out of a small hole goes by faster and with less effort. They are an excellent addition. I wouldn't mind a bit thicker, stiffer wire. You can't form one into a hook or corkscrew to scrub a hard to reach spot. Think twist tie more than paper clip. But that's not a flaw of the brand, that seems to be the norm. I've never seen the extra stiff type that I would like to try. I also wish the fuzz was a bit more thick, but again, these are no skinnier than any others I have found. The fuzz does suck both water and oil in very readily. Like any I have tried. I think a pipecleaner's a pipecleaner's a pipecleaner, really. These are nothing special, except for having a few bristles among the fuzz. Aside from wiping out my pipe I use them for sanitizing my hummingbird feeders. It is very important to keep those clean because hummingbirds can die if they get food poisoning. I scrub mine down twice a week with a paste of baking soda and nontoxic unscented dish soap, but recently I noticed a hint of grey inside the holes of the fake flowers, where the scrub brush and abrasive paste can't reach. I assume that's mold starting, or maybe beak grime? At any rate gotta get it clean! Enter these bad boys. Perfect fit, not too snug at all but fat enough that the fuzz cleans the hole with no effort at all. I doubt it needs it every time I wash the feeder but I think I'll use one of these about once a month and then I won't have to worry I am sickening any little birdie friends!

hard bristles work better than standard pipe cleaners. on short side in length

Perfect for what I bought it for and great price

As described. Prompt shipping.

Zen Bundles nailed it with these. The hard bristle actually has some backbone, so it isn’t just smearing gunk around — it scrubs. I use them for both my bong and my pipe and they get into all the annoying little spots where resin loves to live. Also: I’m a big head, so I go through cleaners fast. The 132 count is perfect because I’m not rationing them like they’re gold. Grab a handful, clean everything properly, toss ’em, done. They hold up well, don’t fall apart mid-clean, and the bright yellow makes them easy to spot so you’re not playing “where the hell did it go” on your table. If you actually want your glass to stay clean instead of “kinda less disgusting,” these work.

Decent cleaning, very stiff. Would not buy them again

These are good for cleaning the Vapor Chamber in my vaporiser. Better than some other pipe cleaners that leave bits of cotton in the pipe, these clean well and and are also absorbent

I just picked up some old pipes of mine that had been sitting in storage for years. I used these pipe cleaners by dipping them in isopropyl alcohol and using them twisting, and flossing them through my pipes. These pipes were years old and had a lot of caked on residue. But using this method I was able to get them in good working order again. Only thing I will say is be careful when you use them. You can definitely jab yourself with the stiff bristles for an unpleasant experience. If you are careful though they’ll do just fine. Very pleased with my purchase, and I’m sure I’ll be back for more as needed

Good quality brushes.

Product was advertised as pack of 3. But I only received 1 pack.
