Do the purples rods bend or no? It seem like some people had problems with the purple rods bending.

They do bend but not nearly as easily as the smallest ones do. There is a hard wire in the middle of all of them and the purple/gray rods have the most cushion for bigger curls but that's what makes it a little tougher.

They bend a little bit but they don't stay and fall right out - they need rubber bands to hold them and that's a job for a contortionist. I can't use either the grey or the purple rods, which are the only ones not too small for my hair. They won't refund my money, and amazon will only refund half, so buyer beware."For health and safety reasons we're unable to accept the return of "Soft 'N Style 60 Piece Rubber Rod Set."" Apparently, the refund policy is not honored because of "health and safety" and they are refunding half for me because of extenuating circumstances in my case.

No I didn't find them to be very bendable at all... The part that goes over the head is fairly wide....If handling them roughly I can see them breaking.

I haven't tried. They seem to be so very fragile. If you try it let us know what happened. Judie Johnson

I think that rod is heavy duty. It wont bend too much if you're catching small fish . Iy wont snaps as easy on you. I got ywo of theses and prety satified

You can bend them about as much as a half circle without breaking them. They are a little persistent and will want to return back to their original shape though but if you can hold them down at the bend you want you should be ok

they probably will bend too, I do recommend the stands but for light (not heavy) stuff. you're probably need a C-stand... i know the price is much higher but keep in mind safety... hope it helped...

I had a problem with mine. The viewing tubes were misaligned, one look up one down, just a little. I have not been able to use them, I am returning them.

I believe the manufacturer addressed that problem. Mine are very sturdy. No complaints here.

None at all but I have heard some complain that it falls off. I triple checked mine when I got it home by lightly pressing at different places with no visible signs of bending or movement. In my opinion it's probably caused by the packing combined with the shipper/store pulling from a shelf and allowing it to drop to the floor. Hey I used to work at one making less than $9 an hour when I was in college. We didn't care how we handled them, in fact I would bet some enjoyed roughing them up cause they could never afford one. If you locally bought take it back and inspect the next one otherwise try calling sony...

Hi there! Not the bent ones but the straight, wider ones they sell are. Here's to your good health!

I have mine the same shape as it is in the picture. I think it would stay but I'm not 100% sure if it would bend that way. You might wanna ask the seller. Sorry I'm not any help!

It will bend. I have used these for several years and started because of the cost. It was low cost and served its purpose. Life span seems to be 2-3 years so you will probably have to replace. Thus cost has to be considered.

Yes they do have some flex in them... I am a beginner so I'm probably not the right person to ask... but I just went out and I am able to bend the shaft a little, if that helps. I have been happy with them; but again I'm a beginner so I may just not know any better. My only disappointment is that in the picture I thought they were white and deep red, when they are actually white and purple. But I got over it. :)

I do not understand the bend ? Are you meaning that each PC of hair you roll has a bend or crease at wher the top of clip is? Because I have fine hair but mine may not be as thin, but if your hair is wrapped tight I do not see how you could be getting a bend in it!??? I wish I could see a photo of how your rolling hair then maybe I could help you! Mine does not come off like that.

They are angle iron, but I don't see these bending. They are held upright by the center section and can't twist. When angle iron bends it's usually because the piece is twisted and takes the load in the wrong direction. They are also stiff enough not to bend. I'm very happy with mine.

I have not actively tried to bend the flatware but during every day use, including the dishwasher and four boys, we've been very pleased. The utensils are sturdy and have not displayed any bending. We've been using them for over a month daily.
