Reusable bamboo straws praised for eco-friendly design and variety of sizes. Customers love "excellent craftsmanship" and included cleaning brush. Most find them easy to clean and use daily. Some concerns about inconsistent sizing, length for tall cups, durability issues with splitting/cracking, and difficulty cleaning narrow straws. A few report bitter taste or mold from improper drying.

Super cute, sustainable, affordable, love them :)

They're lovely, but all but 2 of them are too large for my use with my reuseable cup. Nice that you included a cleaning brush.
Thanks for your review, Erif! The OG straws do differ a bit in size, but we do make our precision straw that are all the same diameter if those would work better for you!

Very good all round

Very nice design. Smooth texture. Easy to clean. Wish they also came in a longer size for taller cups.
Thanks for the review Susan.
We will pass along the request for a longer straw, great idea!

The perfect size that I was looking for to fit in a 20 ounce drinking cup. Easy to clean, store, and use. Excellent craftsmanship on the straws!

Our kids love them!

I've wanted a reusable straw for a long time now. I didn't really want a metal straw, so I started looking for other options. I found bambu and was so intrigued by their bamboo straw. I read more and decided to give it a try. It shipped within 1 week and all of the packaging was recyclable! I also received the cleaning brush and bought the bambu straw cover. I received 6 straws of 6 different sizes. I have only used them a couple of times, but have thoroughly enjoyed them!
Thank you for your 5 star review! Super glad to hear you are enjoying your bamboo straws!

Purchased for an end of Summer gathering and everyone loved the fact that they walked away with a set.
Thanks for the five star review! We're really happy to hear that you enjoyed our bamboo straws and that everyone at your event loved receiving a set.

I love the sizes; slimmer ones for regular drinks, but wider ones for shakes and smoothies!
And the brush makes for easy clean up : )
Enjoy your guilt free straws and thank you for the great review. Nature has provided us with these varying shapes which we love! Enjoy!

I love the different sizes. The bigger straws are my favorite for smoothies:heart::heart:

My only complaint about the straws is that they should be longer. Most of my drinking containers are too long to be able to use them. That is my only complaint!
Thanks for writing in. What do you feel the ideal length would be? I'll pass your feedback on!

I like the texture, and the warmth compared to the metal straws my wife purchased. The only downside in my mind are the irregular sizes, which is to be expected with a natural product like bamboo. Some of the holes are a little small and difficult to draw thick liquids through.

I love my new Bamboo straws from Bambu! I carry one in my purse so I can use it when I eat out and not have to use plastic straws!
That's the idea right there. Fantastic! Every person doing this makes a difference. We appreciate you!

I bought these straws for my coffee shop staff and I so we didn't have to waste so much plastic when having our iced drinks during our shifts. They work great and look great!
What a great idea! I bet they make for quite a conversation piece when your customers see them. Thank you for sharing this with us. We love it!

Drink my coffee out of them and its great.Easy to use, feels just like a regular straw but better !
Coffee is great from a bamboo straw, isn't it? So glad you're enjoying yours and thank you for taking the time to let us know!

A gift to my daughter & son-in-law -- both ardent conservationists & proactive environmentalists, as part of a continuing wedding anniversary
tradition in which a gift of bamboo is given as a token of my wish that their marriage be like bamboo -- Long life -- low maintenance -- beauty & grace.
That's so awesome. Thank you for sharing this with us!

The straws have a very bitter taste which I haven't been able to leach out.
E
They're beautifully made and I love that they are all slightly different sizes! I keep one in my purse at all times! I've been using the same one for about 3 weeks now and it hasn't splintered or cracked or anything- still looks awesome. People ask me about them all the time when I use it and I love talking about how great they are for the earth (:
Awesome, thank you so much. The bamboo straws are a customer favorite for sure. With care, each one will last a good long time. We're glad you love them!
V
Really like them. I wish they weren't as thick. Perhya bit slimmer. Otherwise they are great
Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate it! The straws are made of 100% organic bamboo so you'll find that each one is unique. Some are thicker than others which is actually nice. I use the thicker ones for drinking thick smoothies and the thinner ones for water or juice. We hope you enjoy them!

The straws are ok because they are made of organic bamboo. However the holes of these straws are not large enough, thus sucking into them is quite a hassle. Moreover, the cleaning brush that comes with the straws doesn’t do the job well.

Absolutely love them and happy not to use plastic straws anymore!!!!
We are so glad that you love them, thank you!

I love that every time I use my new re usable bamboo straws I am not trashing our Earth and endangering turtles and other wildlife! Plastic straws are light and easily blown out of garbage cans n picnic baskets! I love my bamboo straws! They work great! The lonely reason I didn’t give them 5 stars is that one of them was not drilled all the way through n using it is like trying to suck a golf ball through a water hose!
We love it too! Thanks so much for doing your part and for the review as well! :)

I recently ordered these bamboo straws as a gift. They were not the least expensive offered but I opted to order from Bambu as they included a lovely brush to clean the straws. Nice tough!! The package arrived in a timely manner; well packaged and it will make a nice gift. I highly recommend this product. A good company! Help keep plastic out of the landfill; order bamboo straws today. Your children and grandchildren will thank you.
Thank you for the kind review and joining in our mission to reduce plastic in the world! Cheers!
