Great quality elastic
Great quality elastic. I was asked to make some face masks and it was ideal as the elastic is soft and comfortable behind the ears

Soft, reasonably stretchy, not on reel (even 20 m option) and not 20 meters
Pros:Nice and soft, for masksGood priceReasonably stretchyClean, without faultsCons:No reel, even for 20 mWrapping it on card was a lot of workWithout doing that, you may end up with a mess of knotsIt's 1837 cm long, not 20 mDon't think the stretch will last very long with repeated washing or heavy useIf you (carefully) want to use short lengths (didn't realise what an essential item this has become!), or you don't mind unravelling and carding this; and it's not for something you want to wash a lot and expect to last, this is decent for the price. It's soft, as others have said, so ideal for masks. For more permanent sewing/crafts projects, I would spend a bit more, as it doesn't feel like the stretch will last.. I bought this to replace/add under-ties for sofa covers, those stretch covers (which are really good, btw, if you have pets!). I chose the 20 m length mainly because it looked like it comes on a reel. It doesn't.I need lengths as long or wide as my sofa, and didn't fancy ending up with a big knot once I started using it, so wound it on a card, which took the best part of an hour. It comes in a loop, like a garden hose and same as with hoses, if you then wrap it around something, I've found no way to stop it twisting and getting knotted and tangled up. I thought initially that maybe they sent the wrong product, the 10 m length, and even - carefully - measuring it, it got tangled.I concluded that they sent the correct product, but it's only 18 m and 37 cm long. I measured with a soft tape measure in 1 m lengths and am pretty sure that's reasonably accurate. It's not a huge deal, but along with confusing/misleading description, annoying enough to not give 5 stars.As there are 3 products and only 1 is shown on a reel, it's especially misleading. If I'd known, would've chosen a different product. Mine was clean, though, no marks or faults that I could notice. So for low cost option, if you don't mind extra inconvenience and don't need it to last that long, it's a good option.

Lovely soft elastic
I purchased this elastic to make face masks and it was brilliant. Soft and easy to work with and comfortable to wear. It comes in a tied bundle so you have to be careful unwinding it as you can get in a muddle but great value for money.

Perfect for masks, less so for dressmaking.
Picture shows the elastic on a reel, but it came loose and took a bit of untangling.It's quite soft - great if you're using it for face masks, but not as sturdy as I'd have liked for a waistband.Can't really complain at the price, though, and it's certainly good enough for mocking up a toile of the garment.

This elastic is soft and easy to use comfy over the ears as I mainly use the elastic for face masks

You get what you pay for
It arrived very dirty. I had to wash the whole spool before I could even touch it. It's very thin, a little flimsy, but very cheap
