Spring Fair at NEC I know is mainly a decorators event rather than twisters, but thought I would ask, just in case
Did anybody go and get samples of the NEW Anagram 260's
and try them?
If so what do you think of them?
My first personal impressions
They are harder in texture than Qualatex ones
(I tried sempertex years ago and they where harder and made my hands hurt by end of the day, so this makes me cautious to the feel)
I was told yes they are thicker
Paul has tried a few times on different colours we had given to us
and none as yet have blown up by mouth inflation, maybe its a different technique needed to do this with these... it was not something we discussed at the show
Told me they are 20% cheaper to buy
but that is less than 1p per balloon, so not phased or excited by that
When I am out twisting, I want the confidence in the product I use, that it will do what I want it to do.... I am happy using Qualatex balloons, they suit me and my style of working, I have never had much of a problem with them (even my latest black 260's bag I am not experiencing any poppages, which others say they are!!)..
But I accept that choice and competition is a good thing for all to have in any product in any industry... and if nothing changed nothing would develop
Anyone else got anything to say about them?
