Perler Beads Bead Tweezer Tools, 2 pc 4.25 Inch

having two is perfect in case of losing the other due to being small. having tweezers while working on projects big or small is perfect for precision work, or if you’re nervous you’re going to bump into your project. they do feel cheaper, but they’re shockingly not - the price is pretty decent for what they are

I really like this. I bought two when it was on sale and they are awesome. it makes cleaning up very easy and fun. I think the biggest plus is that my kids find it fun to clean up so they are fighting for who gets to use the sweeper. The only downside might be that it's too fun so my kids are using it like a toy and spilling beads so that they can use the sweeper :)

Perfect for those dropped beads

I purchased this product so I can help my wife sort Perler Beads. As I have large hands it is difficult to grasp and manipulate the small beads so I got this this tool to aid me in that endeavor. And it has achieved that task wonderfully.The tool is multipurpose as it has a scoop on one end to scoop up beads and tweezers on the other end to help grip them. The tweezers end itself has two functions as there are grooves for the beads to fit in or you can pinch them using the nubs on the end.I will say this, you must use a somewhat light touch. As others have stated, if you pinch too hard it will send the beads flying. However, too light, and you drop them. I found that after a few minutes I struck the proper balance and we were able to maintain a good sorting rhythm.Pros:-serves multiple functions-very inexpensive (I spent something like $3 on mine)Cons:-requires some patience and finesse to get used toOverall, if you have large hands like I do (or just don't like messing with those tiny beads by hand) pick this gem up. For the price, you really can't go wrong.

Love this so much, had to buy my son his own as well. Small learning curve, but SOO useful

Arrived quickly. Exactly as described.

I've been making 8-bit Perler Bead coasters and magnets of my favorite Nintendo characters for about a year now. I enjoy creating them and love the finished products. The biggest issue I have is that many of them are fairly time consuming to make, whether you use your fingers or tweezers. A few weeks ago I mentioned to my girlfriend that it would be amazing if they made some sort of Perler pen to quickly dispense beads instead of doing them each by hand. Oddly enough, I stumbled upon this pen last week and bought it immediately.I must say, I had very high hopes for this tool. In theory, it would cut down creation time by a considerable amount. However, in my experience it just couldn't get the job done as I had hoped. Here are my pros and cons:Pros:- The pen is fairly wide, which makes it easy to grip for almost anyone- Button to dispense beads is large and easy to press- Twist top to load beads functions very well- There is a small bump at the mouth of the pen which is convenient for flipping any sideways beads up- The cost is reasonable- Decent for doing outlinesCons:- Not capable of holding a very large number of beads- You have to shake the pen fairly often to get the beads into the dispensing chamber (this is even one of the steps on the package)- The tip of the pen is a good bit larger than the beads, meaning it's not easy to get the beads to fall straight up onto your Perler board as you would like- Not good for filling in tight spacesI wouldn't call this pen a success nor a failure; however, I can't necessarily recommend it either. It leaves lot to be desired, in my opinion. If the mouth of the pen was made as small as possible to dispense the beads I think it would be much more accurate and therefore usable in any instance, rather than just outlining. I also don't see a reason why it isn't designed to hold at least twice as many beads. I think if these small adjustments were made this product could easily be a four to five star item and a must have for Perler Bead enthusiasts.

I find it difficult to hold the perler beads steady while placing them, and I am very happy with how well it works! It is also satisfying to watch the gears move. It’s a simple device that is easy to use. Am planning to get more for my local makerspace.
