Vilene 2V950 3 m x 20 mm Extra-Strong Wundaweb, White

Worked really well on curtains

What can you say about wundaweb, except that it's an amazingly effective and easy-to-use product? People know what it does and how good it is. If they don't, they're not going to be persuaded by a review. I use it a lot, having a 30in inside leg when trousers are usually 29 or 31. If I put them in for alteration, one pair would probably cost me about £6. This stuff is ridiculously inexpensive and is good for many pairs. But just try finding it in the shops. Like I say, this won't persuade anyone to go out and buy it in bulk. But I've just used it, and decided to give it some recognition.

It's good quality. Bought two trousers few inch long. Made them shorter I think the magic is how you use it first. Cover all area then cut small pieces for extra support then iron probably. Check after 10 mins if any part lose put in more tape in lose area if there is then iron that area and leave for 10 mins. Common sense. But only problem I had was quantity should of been bit more nothing to do with seller.

I purchased this Wundaweb for my son's school trousers as they are always too long but I'm not very good at sewing. I also used it on my work trousers as one of my hems had got caught on my shoe and had been pulled down. I found it really easy to use. You just cut a strip off to fit the entire way around the hem, fold the hem and crease, place inside the folded hem until completely covered, cover with a damp cloth then press firmly over the damp cloth with a hot dry iron for at least 10 seconds until the cloth is dry - use a pressing action, not an ironing action. Move along the hem and repeat until dry. It has held both mine and my son's trousers perfectly in place and hasn't washed out or become unstuck. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who hates sewing and where all else has failed as this one actually works.

Works as advertised.

Does what it says however I used this for a pair of large curtains and it wasn't enough to do the second one. I should have ordered another pack. Still it has great grip and well priced. Iron on with a damp cloth, very quick and simple.

I am an sewing-incompetent male! This stuff is very cheap so it's definitely worth a go. It has stuck with an iron grip so far, and I found it fairly easy to position with a few pins. It could be used on the premise that you hem initially with Wundaweb and then have a go at stitching over it if you want, or simply use it to buy time before a helpful sewing friend can do the 'proper' job. Durability seems good however - the garment has undergone several washes. The application, while simple, has some specific requirements (like damp cloth - and I know some modern glues are triggered by damp..) and just maybe less successful applications have not taken all these into account...

Very good, but there wasn't quite enough, as it was wound round a very thick bit of polystyrene, making it look fatter. I used it to shorten curtains, a very simple operation which I carried out by putting the ironing board next to the window, so I didn't have to take them down. But having finished one curtain, there isn't quite enough for the second one, so I am going to have to order some more.

Great item to have in your sewing basket at all times. Its price is reasonable too. Good quality and prompt delivery.
