Hercules Cling Wrap 70m review
70m claimed length. 33cm claimed width. Priced at $3.50.
Good points
Side flaps to push in and hold the roll in place within the box.
The serrated edge is positioned on the bottom of the box less likely to contact serrated edge with hand.
Packaging is fairly strong.
Smooth action no pulling or tearing.
Easily reseals to glass and ceramic only.
No melting of cling wrap when reheating a high fat food, but if the cling wrap touches the food it will melt.
Safety instructions on the packaging.
The box and tube are recycable.
Bad points
No instructions on how to open packaging.
May be difficult to reuse as the cling film binds together.
