Product Reviews
A healthy elastic alternative, easy to use, and economical.
Review by Karen W. on 4/17/2016I am so glad to find an elastic that works so well that is non-latex. There are so many people now that have developed a sensitivity to this. Now I can make diapers that are latex-free. It does help to stretch it three times before sewing it. It seems to take less than the Diaper Maker elastic I had been using to get the same stretch ability. Read more reviews - Description

- A blessing to us who have a severe Latex/Spandex/Elastane allergy!

I have to make ALL my clothing now due to the Latex/Spandex(Lycra)/Elastane allergy I have and it is very hard to find this elastic. My local Hobby Lobby has been out of stock for over a month now and I found your site. You will be getting ALL of my busin
Overall Value - Hard to find, great price!

Exactly what I was looking for.
Overall Value - Will not buy this elastic again. I have concerns it may tear to easing when over stretched inside a garment.

I was disappointed with this product. I was excited to try a new elastic for diaper making. Overall the elastic worked okay. It stretched nicely. It did not come with directions, but I followed the directions I found on line to pre-stretch it. Once sewn into the material though if you stretch it too much it tears. That concerned me - I did not want it to start tearing inside the diapers. It arrived on time. Packaging: I ordered 10 yards. It came in a plastic bag with an outside sticker that said 10 yards. Inside was another bag that said 8 yards and then there was 2 yards laying loose inside the bag but outside of the inner bag. Including directions on how to use the elastic would be nice. Not everyone would remember it has to be stretched 3 times before using.
Overall Value - A healthy elastic alternative, easy to use, and economical.
