2.0 out of 5 stars Deceptive advertisement for product, January 22, 2011

I did not read the reviews for this product, which I think is the one and only time I have never done so. If I had, I would not have been surprised when unopened the package and found it not to be a " Yamaha" brand product as specified, but a generic no-name product. The product does appear like the one in the picture and should work just fine, I just hate deception in advertising especially in regards to online shopping when you rely on the honesty of the seller to provide legitimate descriptions of their products and not use a brand name to suck your sale in. The fast mail service would have impressed me to buy again until I opened the package only to see I had bit on a bait and switch.

It's a flute swab. What can I say? It does the job and seems to be fabricated from reasonably good quality materials that should make it last at least as long as I have my flute. The vendor shipped the item promptly and communications associated with the transaction, as always with Amazon, were excellent.

I bought this for my Hutchen's flute and this does a very bad job of cleaning the flute. All the moisture simply gets redistributed throughout the length of the flute! The material on this flute cleaner is NOT AT ALL absorbent. I expected it to suck up the moisture immediately on contact, since that would be the only good way to clean a flute. I'm a flute newbie and this is disappointing. I have read on other reviews that it's best to use a cleaning rod with a cleaning cloth, so I will buy those and see how that works out.
