I've used a variety of mouth coils, the more generic ones from China and India have always been of a
low quality; breaking very easily. After some research I moved to Cresey paper coils. They have
been the best paper coils.
However after reading other reviews I switched to these
plastic mouth coils and I'm really happy with the results. I'm an actor and in some theatre shows,
I'll use mouth coils with another actor (so not a magician)... even the best paper coils would
break. These plastic coils are almost impossible to break, you would need to really try to break
them!
They unravel smoothly, the plastic means the colors are really bright, they don't get
soggy, and they are long. Not all 50 foot coils deliver a 50 foot length, these just keep coming.
Plus some people might worry about cheap toxic dyes in the paper coils, not with these.
I
fully recommend these, I'm sticking with them!

Probably the best 25' coil available. (they are 25', right?) The colors are bright, the plastic
won't tear when uncoiling and they aren't as brutal on your mouth like the Mylar ones. They show
very well. Actually, it has become one of my favorite coils! (the other...50' coils by Bazaar...only
white, but longer than heck). You can't go wrong with these coils. Great price too. Check em out!!!

This has now become my "go to" mouth coil when I need one (or hand coil).
It's colorful, the
colors don't "run", the plastic makes it very durable (I've not "broken" any during an uncoil), and
it's long enough to get laughs.
This is an easy review...just get em' now if you use any coils
at all!

I was getting concerned with the dye from the mouth coils I normally use (the 2 top name brands) and
so decided to go for a plastic one even if it cost more. I phoned Penguin before buying as I wanted
to get enough to last at least a few months and I wanted to get an opinion before spending $150.
They assured me these coils were good quality and I took their word for it.
They are very good
coils. I would even say excellent. They are very long--as long as I would ever want them, they don't
pull apart, they are bright, they unravel smoothly, and there is no fear of consuming some dye that
comes from who know where and what.

I have been using 'the other' mouth coils for years. I took a chance to try out these new plastic
coils. I'm glad I did! Not only are they more durable and colorful, now they are going to save me a
lot of money (Less than $1 coil) ! I will never use the paper coils again :D Thank you Andy!

These are honestly the BEST coils around! My clown troupe religiously used to order these until they
went out of stock… we would love to order more as soon as they restock because the paper ones just
don’t cut it :/ plastic is the BEST!!!!!!!!
