Creative use for test tubes Review by Sabrina

I order the Jumbo test tubes to use as snack (goldfish, puffs, cranberries) holders for my two young children. After I put the diapers for two, wipes, bottles, change of clothes and everything else in the diaper bag the space is very limited so I thought a snack container that was long and skinny like the test tubes would save more space than the to bowls I was currently using. It works great. My only word of advice is don't put them in the dishwasher. Wash by hand. My test tubes actually shrank to almost 1/2 the size. But Steve Spangler Science stood behind their product and sent me new ones...... it doesn't say they are dishwasher safe, I was just hopeful. (Posted on 5/31/13)

Great visual attention grabber Review by Darleen Davies

This past week I used both the baby soda bottles and jumbo test tubes to have my students look at why student obesity is becoming an issue in schools. I used drink examples and an activity chart to bring the point home. See an attached picture example. I can send you a copy of the worksheet entitled - Hidden In Plain Sight if you like. Your baby soda bottles hold about 40 grams of sugar so I needed to use the Jumbo tubes for Pepsi, A&W Root Beer and Simply Limeade looking at a 16-20oz serving size. Then looking at what kinds of sugar exist in each from the ingredient list.
One student drinks a liter of Coke so it measure 108 grams of sugar - his reaction was priceless. (Posted on 5/31/13)

Geocaching Review by Bob Hutchinson

I use these as Geocaching containers. I put my logbook inside, hide it, and the cachers find it. It also keeps water out so that the logbook stays nice and dry. (Posted on 5/31/13)

Excellent product and price. Review by Tom Noonan

I ordered the Jumbo Test Tubes to use in building emergency/hobo fishing kits. Excellent size for my purpose, having ample room for hooks, sinkers, bobbers and other supplies. I am very happy with the product and the price. (Posted on 5/31/13)

Storing tools Review by Matthew Smith

I like these tubes. I am using them to store drill bits and other small tools. I do wish that they would offer these Jumbo tubes with options to buy more for a better price like the Baby Soda Bottles. The Jumbo tubes are not as crush proof as the Baby Soda Bottles but the are a very useful size and reasonably durable. (Posted on 5/31/13)
