I have many of these but some finally started getting too low to use. I've been using these for over 15 years now due to having 3 kids. I homeschool all 3 for 10 years now and we use these a lot. you can glue pretty big stuff like rocks, glass rocks, beads, paper, cardboard, etc.. strong glue for kids projects, cheap, smells good, non toxic. I will keep buying these till my kids grow too old lol.

A Happy Ending

Elmer’s “Multi-Purpose” glue formula is one of my household staples. I keep on hand at all times. There was an accident in early spring involving a large, thick, very heavy terracotta pot and a man with a shoved, causing big chunks of the rim to break in pieces. This has been a big part of my backyard decor for years. Before crying and having to search for a replacement (with a hefty price tag plus hiring someone for pickup and disposal) I had the wild idea to try gluing the pieces together. Honestly, I didn’t think any kind of glue could mend my pot. But I tried anyway. After using a generous amount of Elmer’s multi-purpose, I secured together with clips and let it sit for a couple days. It’s now seven months later, and after storms and many pounding rains, my pot ... MoreElmer’s “Multi-Purpose” glue formula is one of my household staples. I keep on hand at all times.

Essential for Papercraft

Don't give me that washable nonsense. I don't need the 'podge. Contact cement will not hold up to the stresses of manhandling. Gimme that old time PVA School Glue when I need to make gears and cams out of nothing but cardstock and a dream. I work in design and I have a little shop for handmade stuff. I'm creative through and through and I desperately needed a hobby I can't monetize easily. Papercraft mechanical automatons were exactly what I needed, and after trying out a bunch of different glues, I returned to this humble workhorse (work-bull?) to hold them together. And the LAST. At least until my neice finally tears the paper (this is the joy of papercraft. Build them, give them to the kids in your life to play with until they destroy them, and then build some more.)

GREAT GLUE!!! POORLY CONTAINED!

ELMER'S GLUE IS GREAT! The ONE STAR is FOR WALMART and their packaging protocol or the lack thereof. I lost 3 inches off my gallon of glue, to a LOOSE LID. It seems to me that common sense sould tell you, when shipping liquid you should CHECK to make sure THE LID is on tight and SECURE it WITH some TAPE so it doesn't get loose in the shipping process and leak everywhere. The Elmer's glue that was everywhere was mostly dry. Some was still wet. Leading me to believe it had been leaking the whole trip. Boy, did it hold tight! I didn't think I was ever going to get the packaging and the jug of glue out of the box. 5 STARS FOR ELMER'S GLUE!!! It means business! If I didn't need the glue right now. I would have returned that mess and let them clean it up. Now I am ... MoreELMER'S GLUE IS GREAT! The ONE STAR is FOR WALMART and their packaging protocol or the lack thereof.

I adore glue

I must be honest, I haven’t used Elmers glue for some time ( like 15 or 20 years) especially since I discovered Tacky glue. I saw the Elmer’s just sitting quietly near the Tacky glue and I thought “You used to use only Elmers. Let’s give it another try, see how to competes with the Tacky glue “ So I brought it and it hasn’t disappointed me. It’s a touch looser in nature and I am still learning it’s habits.

Slightly better then school glue but not by much

All of the 5 star review made it seem like this glue was so amazing. So I purchased 2 bottles for my art projects. The glue takes just as long as school glue to dry. Nothing quick dry about it. Also i can tell the quality of the glue is a few millimeters above school glue when it comes to quality. I gave it 2 star mainly because I was expecting amazing glue. 5 star reviews are usually hyped up. Most are fake and made by the company. I'll still buy this guy for my art projects but I'm giving you the facts vs the fluff
