do they bend and break easily?

No. I used them for stacking cake tiers, and they worked well - so they are pretty sturdy.

They're very pliable. I bent one several ways as a test, and it didn't crack at all. I think you will be happy with them for crafts.

I have had them for about 6 months and have had no issues. I do imagine if they are dropped they would break.

Yes I've had them for a year and no tips have bent. I highly recommend them.

They are not too bendable but my daughter has had them for a year and they have not broke. The black pieces by the ears are always coming off though so I would keep that in mind and they are difficult to get back on.

No, they do not bend. Very sturdy. Feel as if they have moved into 21st century with kitchen utensils. Finally something new, practical and well designed.

Yes, you can bend them, they are just like any other pipe cleaner except they are a little ruff so they can really clean out you pipe. Not the best for any craft project due to them having this extra function.

They are very strong, we used it to drink from a Coconut and didn't bend at all. Hope this helps.

No, they do not break easily. I tested this by mangling one of the springs. For your own peace of mind, do try this yourself before giving to your cat.

Yes, they break very easy. they have a score mark that helps break them. They don't always break exactly in half, but close.

Yes but they do bend. If you need something perfectly straight, this may not be the answer for you.

Not really. They are pretty fragile. Esp. The large size. I've been through 3 of them.

they probably will bend too, I do recommend the stands but for light (not heavy) stuff. you're probably need a C-stand... i know the price is much higher but keep in mind safety... hope it helped...

They're very sturdy. Not easily bent at all, but I'm sure with enough force, could be.

No they are not difficult to use. They do not break easily and you do not have to soften them. They are delicious

They are definitely able to be bent. Pretty pliable. I would still say sturdy since we use them at a school and frequently change the documents.

I got the beats for my sister and she takes really good care of them so I can't really say that they break easily because they haven't. But the way they are made and what they are made of I would not be surprise for them to break easily.
