I bought these for both scrapbooking and my son's kindergarten class and they work just fine. Our scrapbooks are about five years old and they're fine. Didn't really work well on construction paper of poor quality but nothing did.
Smooth and easy to use. Just the right amount delivered on swipe.

Quilting supply...

I use Staples Washable Glue Sticks (comparable to Elmer's Glue Sticks) for temporary holding fabric together in quilting such as in applique bindings mitered corners and joining complicated pattern pieces prior to stitching. It does not stain can be removed easily with a damp cloth while still damp will re-stick if fabric needs to be adjusted and after it dries will dissolve in the wash so does not leave a hard edge. Staples brand is a little cheaper than Elmer's and FAR cheaper than "fabric glue sticks" (which are the same formula). I put a tiny drop of water in the cap and store cap-side down and this preserves the freshness (glue sticks should not be used if they get overly sticky and do not work at all after they dry). I even built a glue stick holder by screwing a cap onto a block of wood for temporary capping during a project. Good product!
