00:00Hama Beads vs Perler Beads, which is better, that's the question, right?
00:04One's the European classic, one's the American name everyone knows.
00:09Honestly?
00:11They melt the same, they play the same, but the deals right now are not the same.
00:15I tracked down 5 of the best-selling Fuse Bead Packs on the market, all under 5 bucks,
00:20and one of them is kind of a cheat code.
00:23Let's get into it.
00:25First up, the Value King, 5,000 pieces of 2.6mm mini beads for just $3.48.
00:32That's under a dime per hundred beads, and over 4,600 people have already grabbed it with
00:37a 4.8 rating to back it up.
00:40These are the small size, so they work on fine detail pixel art, keychains, mini magnets anything
00:45tiny.
00:46If you want bulk without burning your budget, this is the bag.
00:50Now if your kid is younger or just starting, skip the minis and grab the 5mm pack.
00:561,000 pieces, 30 different colors included, $3.16.
01:01The bigger beads are way easier for little fingers to place on the pegboard, and 30 colors
01:06out of a single pack means no running out of the good shades halfway through a project.
01:114.9 stars from nearly 4,700 buyers, that's a track record.
01:16Want perfection?
01:17This next one has a straight 5-star rating across 4,188 sales.
01:241,000 pieces of 2.6mm perler-compatible beads for $3.16, sized perfect for jigsaw-style pixel
01:32designs and home decoration pieces.
01:35Nobody's returning these, apparently.
01:37If you're the type who wants zero risk on a purchase, this is the safest click on the
01:42list.
01:43Here's the one I'd buy for myself.
01:4610,000 beads, the biggest pile here, at $4.65, and the bag is magnetic, so it actually sticks
01:52to your fridge or workbench instead of exploding across the floor.
01:562.6mm size, high quality, 4.9 stars.
02:014,000 people can't be wrong.
02:04Bulk, convenience, and cleanup solved in one pack.
02:08Last one, and it splits the difference perfectly, 8,400 pieces of 2.6mm beads for $3.17.
02:16That's almost the huge packs quantity at the small packs price.
02:21Great for classroom groups, birthday party tables, or anyone who crafts daily and hates
02:25reordering.
02:27Rated 4.9 by over 4,000 buyers.
02:30Price per bead math on this one is basically unbeatable.
02:34So, verdict, Hama and Perler are interchangeable in practice, the real winner is whichever deal
02:40you grab.
