Fiberglass Chopsticks Series - Japanese Non-Slip Luxury Reusable Chopsticks 5 Pairs Gift Set

Great chopsticks, very pretty and easy to hold, look sleek and have good grip

Very pretty set

I had to teach myself to use them but I find them to be a good weight, easyish to use (although they will get easier with more practice) and very easy to clean. I would recommend them.

These fibreglass chopsticks aren't quite nice, but only a bit pricey in my opinion.The design looks really nice, with the top part being see-through with some floral designs, and just look really elegant.I use chopsticks frequently for cooking and eating, and I've used many different kinds, going from exotic materials, to the common plastic, so when it comes to using and comfort, I know my chopsticks.In terms of comfort, these are better than the cheap plastic ones, although they are shorter too. Length isn't a major issue, but it's something to make a note of.The description says these can endure heats of up to 400°F (204°C) and for eating, this will never be a problem. For cooking, I wouldn't risk this in case it melts into food and and you eat it, so beware of what you're cooking if you're using these for that purpose. At this temperature, besides stirring food, these are probably just for eating only. Realistically, the best chopsticks to use for high temperature is wood or bamboo, because they don't conduct heat easily and won't melt, so I wouldn't use these chopsticks for all purpose cooking.£6.64 (£6.99 with a 5% off voucher) for a pack of 5 pairs is a bit too expensive in my opinion, since there is limited use with them, however, given the design, if you really want some nice looking chopsticks rather than the cheap plastic ones, these are actually a good choice. For cooking, wooden or bamboo ones are just better. In my opinion, not a bad choice if you like the design, but for value, there are better value options.

These chopsticks are a little heftier than I was thinking which is a welcome surprise as it makes it feel not as cheap. The photos in the listing aren't the best so I wasn't sure whether the patterns at the back were painted or separately joined. I can confirm that the design that I have is actually separate pieces with the ends being made out of plastic instead of the fiberglass of the main bodies.The fibreglass body has a 'fake' wooden pore surface which I do believe improves the grip of the chopsticks. The design makes the overall centre of mass very nice in my opinion as it's closer to the back of the chopsticks as opposed to being halfway along. There is a texture change at the top of the chopsticks to help pick up food - this is normal for Japanese style chopsticks. However, what I have noticed is that the tips which touch the food are actually smoother than the texture of the main body! I feel like there should be some change in design if they actually want a grippier texture. I did not have any problem with picking up food, however.As hinted above, these are closer to the Japanese style chopsticks as the handle end of the chopsticks are square with rounded corners tapering off to a fine, round tip which touches the food. Interestingly, the tips on these are slightly wider than what the Japanese chopsticks normally are and are flat-topped where the Japanese are normally a bit rounder. Comparing these to Chinese chopsticks, these (being reviewed) still have thinner tips and less sharp corners on the hand side.I have generally found that chopsticks made from synthetic materials stay straight longer than wooden/bamboo ones, and so I would expect these to stay straight for a very long time. I have previously used plastic chopsticks which have developed hairline cracks over time, and while this may happen also in due time, I have a feeling that these will last longer than those, especially since the material feels of better quality.I should mention that the listing states that these are dishwasher safe, but it didn't say anything about that on the packaging.On an unrelated note, each pair is matched with the same colour ends, mixing and matching different colours (like a red and turquoise end) have a certain sort of aesthetic and doesn't look that bad.Overall, I am happy with these chopsticks and I think that they are of good value. I love the weighting and from a distance (like on the other side of a table) they look good too.Hope this was helpful!

I have the 'family' version of these chopsticks. They have a cute design with little faces on the ends. The colours are lovely and bright and the chopsticks feel very sturdy and well made. There's a textured/striped design on the chopsticks which give them a textured feel when using them.They seem to be a regular size - but seem to be a bit on the long and thin side - and the weight feels a bit heavier to chopsticks I've used in the past. I personally found them a bit on the heavy side to use - especially at the length they are - which is something to note if you have a preference with that.The overall finish seems good - but the edges are slightly rough in places, but this is minor and not very noticeable. There were no care instructions included with the pack which I found inconvenient - but the Amazon product page has extra details on this. At £6.99 for 5 pairs, I think they're very good value.I really like these chopsticks overall and would recommend them if you're looking for something bright and cheerful.

It really nice chopsticks for eating. You get 5 different colours of chopsticks, with a pattern design on a top bit which looks quite nice. The chopstick itself feels nice in a hand most importantly they have an anti-slippery design so can eat even with wet hands. As well they have a bit of weight on them which I like much more than the ones which I can't feel its hand as they are too light. The size is regular 9.5 inches as they are all around some size in a market. The price well its a bit higher, as there are other chopsticks out there which costs similar but you can get like 10 of them it's my only complaint about them. Overall good chopsticks feel nice in hand but could be cheaper.
