I received this as a sample to review. I really enjoyed trying this product and was surprised at how well it worked. Good for a fix on a jacket, or other item such as a purse that doesn't need washing. Neat item.
very easy to use, handy size to keep with you on the go, the only thing is they need to come in more colours
Scotch Essentials Easy Fix Button is a great product for sticky situation. It is easy to use and it hides the missing buttons. It is great to keep at the office or in your car. The only problem is that it is kinda pricey. Approximately $2 for each button. But I guess when I need it, I don't mind that $2.
The package I received to try contained a total of four shirt buttons. The two white buttons I used and could see using more often, since most of my blouse buttons are white. I would have liked a darker colour in my package for the other two buttons though, perhaps a black or a navy blue, but that is just me and my clothes colours! Actually using the repair kit is pretty easy, the fastener or clip holding the button on is large so you do need to have a blousey fitting shirt, form fitting ones would be a bit tough. For me though, having the button is the challenge point. If I have a button and a bit of thread, sewing a loose button back on is super easy. Although this kit works well, quickly hand-sewing a button on is just as easy (the trick is having everything you need on hand)! For me, I probably wouldn't use this product that often, I would rather sew a button on myself. That being said, if you are absolutely not a sewer this is for you, it is quick, it is easy, AND it holds!
Ingenious idea!
I could see this being slipped into one’s purse or car glove compartment. The package I received had 2 white and 2 grey small buttons; the addition of 2 black buttons would increase utility.
This product is designed specifically for shirts, not outerwear, pants, or skirts. Perhaps they’ll also create a multi-pack with different sizes and weights of buttons.
Drawback: the backing "clip" is bulky so shirt/blouse needs to be roomy. However, given that this is probably an emergency fix-it product, it's great!
Thanks for the opportunity to try this product for free.
Glad to have received this to try and review for free through ChickAdvisor!. THis is supereasy and quick to use. ALways hated sewing buttons that popped off and have a drawer full of buttons that I had been putting off getting to. I definitely made a dent in it since receiving this product.
Oh heaven, for the NON-Sewer the task I detest can be fixed in minutes!! It takes longer to find and get out of the package. These are a dream. Super easy to do, simply ingenious.
Well I must say I was so excited to get the chance to try the scotch easy fix buttons. As I'm not a very good at sewing. These were so easy to use that I must say I feel like a pro now. So gonna buy these again and fix more missing buttons.
I received Scotch Essentials Easy Fix Button for free to try out from ChickAdvisor.
I found the kit very easy to use it. It is a good solution for emergency moments, especially when you are away from home and you don't have a sewing kit with you. I will keep it in my purse for emergencies. I would definitely recommend this product to friends especially as a travel kit.
