I bought these for home craft projects with my little girl. I even ended up using them to glue construction paper to a rewards book she took with her on a trip. Works great! Sticks well, doesn't clump and so long as you have soe sense and don't leave the stick uncapped or face down on carpet, I think they will last for a long time! She had a blast making Christmas decorations using them. So much neater than the squeeze and explode bottles we used as kids.
As a newbie to 3d printing, I had heard people were using this purple glue on their print beds to help the filament stick down, so I decided to give it a try. It works super well, and I love that I can tell by the color if it is dry. I'm using a glass print surface on an Anet A8 3d printer - before printing I just rub a bunch of this around the build plate, wait until the purple turns clear, and I'm ready to start printing.
Cleanup is super easy in the kitchen sink - as soon as the glue gets a splash of water it turns purple again, making it super easy to tell when it's clean.
This 30 pack was a great value. There are only 2 reasons I didn't give it 5 stars: (1) when applying it, you have to be careful not to leave any gaps. This isn't too hard but it does take extra effort. And (2) today I tried using Aqua-net hairspray instead - it was way easier to apply and cover the entire surface. The drying time on the purple glue is better than the Aqua-net though.
I ordered Elmers All Purpose School glue stick 30 pack for a kids crafting class and extras for home use. My 3 year old and I found the small sticks worked well on foam and paper projects. I'm glad we have extras because my little one tends to leave the cap off for long periods of time and the sticks dry out.
Only came with 29 glue sticks but for under $6 for 29 glue sticks was a great deal! I have a preschooler and she runs through glue sticks so these will really come in handy!!
I use this for lots of different sewing things. It's a bit unorthodox but I even use it to glue the crap out of my zippers before I install them. It helps them stay straight-- sometimes pins can distort the installation. The downside to this technique, is that you have to wash whatever it is you're making after you're done sewing it. But I find that most things that are sewn are also intended to be washed, so that's not really that much of a con. It's a really good set of glue for the price that you pay.

My kinder students ran out of glue sticks and many could not afford to buy new glue sticks. They started using the glue bottles but those are so messy. My students love these glue sticks (other brands are poorly made and cheap); but, overall these are best loved by my students and me. I know these glue sticks won’t last long because they are in constant use. So I’m hoping I can get a special price when I order again. Thank you very much!!
This big pack of glue sticks is a good value. They're you're standard glue sticks. They work well for everyday kid crafts and school work related cutting and pasting. I like that they go on purple so my younger kids can see when they're using too much. My only complaint is that they dry out very quickly if the cap is left off.
I find it hard to believe there's anybody out there who actually needs to read customer reviews to help them determine whether or not to purchase Elmer's glue. Anyone who has children, knows someone who has children, attended kindergarten or knows of someone who went to kindergarten should be very well aware of the fact that Elmer makes the best glue products in the industry hands down. I defy anyone to name another company in the glue stick industry that puts out a product that Elmer's glue doesn't put to shame. There is no competition. Elmers glue stick has dominated the industry for decades and will continue to do so for decades to come.
We are constantly running out of glue stick in my kindergarten class and a box like this is just what we need! I've tried many other glue stick companies but none come close to Elmer's. Elmer's glue sticks do a good job sticking papers together without the mess of wet glue. And the purple color is so helpful, allowing the kids to see where they're gluing instead of running the glue over the same area numerous times. I definitely recommend this product!
Do you want to make an elementary school teacher happy? Give them this. I've taught first grade for nine years. You would be surprised by how many glue sticks a first grader uses in a typical year. You might think that we asked for a lot of glue sticks at the beginning of the year but I can almost guarantee you that those glue sticks will be gone by Christmas. The rest of the year the teacher buys the glue sticks.
