I agree with the last review (check posting date). These coils have degraded in quality. Simply, they break way to easily. Keep looking...these are bad!

Been a long time Penguin user, just have not wrote reviews in a while. For the records, I love coils, just not these. I would give in ZERO stars if I could, they are trash. Break way to easy.

For the price, these are very good mouth coils. The Cressey ones are better, but at nearly .00 each, not practical for practicing. The colors do not blend from one to the other the way some better coils do, so I would not use them for an important show.

Come on who doesn't like a mouth coil? These are a great fun gag and quite a fooler to all age groups, looks quite magical and is quite easy to do. So many possibilities to be done with these and you can pull them from almost anywhere and not just your mouth, takes a little practice to look natural in mouth but not too much. Just a fun prop to add into your routine.

Here is another great item to pick up for your next kids show. Don't perform this for adults because it won't be too impressive. This item is more of a novelty rather than a magic trick, and that is why it is great for kids.

Just make some coughing noise and start pulling out the paper. Kids will laugh and laugh and laugh until all 25 feet have cleared your mouth. Go slow slow though or it tends to rip. Beside, the slower you go, the longer the kids will love it. For such a low price, you can't go wrong.

These mouth coils stick and are difficult to pull out . . . they also are poorly made - they break as they are being produced . . . less than great . . .

While it is true that these coils are not as good as the old ones made by Dave Cresey they are what they are. As you might know, Dave sold the franchise and the buyer has had some problems. If my information is correct, it will become more and more difficult to get Cresey coils.
These are not bad, and the fact that they break can be dealt with if the perfomer is careful. I hope this doesn't cause a run on the Cresey coils.
