Side by Side Comparison of: Zig Zag vs RAW

Cute and handy.Gets the job done. Comes with a spare belt with the Great Zig zag logo. Heavy clear plastic.I am not disappointed.

Took me a few tries to remember how to use one of these, but I've got it down. Cigs have gotten so expensive and have chemicals in them that I can't even pronounce so I decided to go back to hand rolling. Very satisfied.

All of these rollers are essentially the same design, but made with different materials. This one has worked better than any others I've tried, and continues to work great after several months of use.

My previous roller broke after being in off and on use many years. This is a perfect replacement. It feels better than the one it was replacing in fact. If you re not good at rolling by hand this is the tool you need. Just place the tobacco in, roll, place the paper in (facing the correct way), lick the adhesive strip and finish rolling closed.Long explanation but it really is much simpler to roll this way and cheaper.

makes rolling sooo much easier. slim filters fit perfectly if you want a filter. comes with instructions and feels like its good, sturdy quality.

Zig Zag hand rollers are, hands down, the best cigarette rollers on the market. You can roll a perfect cigarette every time. Very easy to use, easy to fill, the paper feeds in straight, and it's easy to roll.I roll about 20 filter cigarettes daily,fast and easy, never wasting tobacco or papers.My last Zig Zag 78mm Roller lasted almost 15 years, before my big, strong hands snapped the base in two. The rollers, and belt are still intact!If you want a perfect, normal size, long lasting, good tasting cigarette that is better than the store bought kind, get one of these, and roll your own!Addendum: 01/17/2016Well, after just a FEW months of daily use, making 20-30 filter tipped cigarettes, the first one snapped in two, and I am not rough on my rollers. Brought out my second one, and after using it for a few months, making the same amount of cigarettes daily. it snapped in two, as well. So much for Zig-Zag "quality"! Fortunately, I had another brand roller, as a back-up. But, after doing the math, with the cost of papers being so high, and adding the cost of filters, it wasn't very economical to hand roll any longer, so I have switched from RYO to MYO. Initial cost, for a TOP brand machine, was $40 from my local tobacco shop. I scooped up a bunch of 250 tube boxes of king sized filter Top brand tubes, for $1.99/box (way cheaper than filters or papers). Bottom line is, and I'm using a good quality tobacco, I'm making my cigarettes for around $1/pack of 20! And far less work involved than using a roller.

The 24 pack comes in a box, shrink wrapped to preserve quality, and work perfectly for my machine rolled smokes.Bonus points added for supporting Raw.Look up the Raw Foundation, the work they do makes the difference between buying these and the Hempire brand for me.

After contact the company that about not receiving only had to wait shortly and made sure I received my product and it's great thank you!

Burns smooth and slow every time with no nasty bleached paper smoke or taste. Definitely recommend using in combo with the rolling machine and natural filters for a great smooth smoke with little to no tar.

Some of the best papers out there, the perfect blend of flavor, thickness, and burnablity, I bought a whole bunch of rolling papers from different sources and these are my favorite. I would use them wayyyy more if I could find my 2 packs left, sick of using dog eared papers that don't stay lit

Awesome product. Great price. Just for the extra packs of papers would usually cost more than this whole piec.

Shipped super quick and you can't beat the price VS other tobacco shops. Like half the price. It's not even a question. I really like RAW brand for a good clean smoke.

Rugged roller, which is made of durable plastics.

Easy to use instructions were not all that easy to follow but in the end useful product

Sometimes what it rolls is too tight and won't pull when smoked but there's a method to get it to work.

Works great! No problems

I used to roll by hand and was proud of the quality of rolls I could pull off. Enter the first use of this guy - stupid fast to roll a quick burner. If I'm at home I no longer hand roll as this precious lady has spoiled me immensely with how easy she is.

I would've given this a perfect rating if it wasn't for the fact that the manufacturer didn't give proper instructions on how to operate!! It may look simple, but it isn;'t. I had to go to youtube to find out how to use this machine Otherwise, i adore this little contraption, since it's much easier and faster to roll cigarettes, which are perfect every time and takes the stress off of my carpal tunnel hands!!Zig Zag Roller is a great invention, with a price that can't be beat!!!

Papers are good quality. They come packaged nicely. They roll real well in a cigarette roller. The description does claim they burn slow due to the paper design, but the issue I have is that they do burn out quickly if you don't continuously hit. Otherwise the taste is standard.

Great and it works well the only thing at the end you have to lick it through blue the paper together but it's very different difficult to do so because the paper will twist on him

I like these because they are unbleached and organic. I know I know, smoking of any kind is bad, but anything I can do to mitigate the amount of chemicals I'm inhaling is a good thing.

These are great. I go through so many that I finally decided to just buy a box. They were much cheaper to purchase in bulk. Highly recommend these rolling papers as they are all I use.

Good papers that are cheap and easy to use. Just smooth out the crease in the middle and they will roll easily. My only complaint is they have a bit of an unpleasant taste/smell to them when they burn, but its not too bad.

No complaints, Always top quality from RAW, no exception to that rule here. They are also non bleached - that's a really good thing. Do you want to breathe in something that has been bleached like other papers out there?

This product is true to it's slogan; "perfect every time." However, it does wear down quite fast, and if you use it every day you will need to replace it within months. All in all, really not bad considering the price. I highly recommend this product, just make sure you get a back up.

Only last me about 4 months. Works great until the seem on the belt comes apart. Buy 2 or 3 as replacements. Still well worth the $

Doesn't make them quite small enough.

not easy to figure out!

A bit difficult to roll with. Where the plastic roller is connected there is a very noticeable seam. Could be designed a bit better but for such a cheap product its not much an issue.

It does what it's supposed to do, and it's small enough that I can carry it in my purse for discretion. The cons: doesn't always roll it tight enough. Doesn't always seal the roll, so you have to take it out and finish it off with your fingers. Don't even bother with the confusing directions. Just youtube a video on how to use it.

Well, this is the correct size for the rolling, so I'll give them that.Plus, you get 50 papers as opposed to the 32 you get from Zig.With that, the papers are not sturdy enough to resist rolling over and they do not burn regularly. (Despite their corporate-bullshite watermark propaganda).Three is the best I can give despite the price due to the deception about the longer papers that don't fit the roller.

It's very soft that keeps slipping my hand while rolling. But it's good overall.

I hand roll my tobacco and these papers were a bit too flimsy, especially compared to Tops brand. I don't add filters, so that might make a difference.

Pictured is the "Classic" paper which is brown, which is what I was hoping for. Received the hemp papers which are white. A little disappointed

I'm not really a fan of raw they don't seem to burn very straight or continue to burn. But if you can get a nice burn they seem alright.

I like these, roll blunts nonstop, and EXPERIENCED. yes i am not good with joints but honestly these i use 2-3 of in order to get a blunt together.they burn weird if u are not used to them, so wil ltake some adjusting.HOWEVER, I have to say, if i dont have the heavy feeling of a white owl down my throat its not the same :/

Came torn. Not satisfied at all.

I've had this for less than three weeks. I didn't abuse it. Didn't do anything terrible with it. It is coming apart and the design went to s***. Save your money. Isn't eligible for return either.

Breaks too easy

Came broken a bit from the end but still looks like its going to work

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my husband. I'm not experienced with with this sort of product. I didn't realize it was broken when it arrived. I would have rated it a one but since it arrived quickly and was well package I rated it a two.

Cheaply made. Pretty much worth the price. It doesnt operate smoothly at all. Not sure if its because of the poor plastic design or the extra loose rolling material.

seem old

I failed to realize how thin these were. Not my favorite.

Tasteless. They run a little. hard to roll, don't stick, quality seems to be decreasing.

The gum on the paper doesn't stick. I think they are old papers. It's unfortunate cause it's four books!

Ugh. These were just not for me. I tried the cones and liked it okay so I thought I'd just get some of the papers. They wouldn't stay lit and drove me nuts.

It's ok if you want it to look like a joint, but for rolling tobacco I didn't like it (I don't want it to look like a joint). Also, it didn't burn very evenly, so it looks even more like a joint.

I tried and tried to learn to use this thing to no avail. Finally had my fill, got frustrated and threw it in the trash. Waste of money.

Only one end of each rolling rod had a head to fit in the slot. In other words it was totally useless. Of course no recourse!

I ordered this on a Saturday and it arrived Monday. So fast shipping. But I opened it to only find out it was broken and the rods weren't even attached to the actual acrylic piece. What a bummer.

The paper is so stretched out and loose that it won't even stay in a position to roll. After reading the reviews, I see I'm not the only one with this issue. I've used plenty of rollers before and this one is complete crap. It's worth it to spend the money and buy a decent one, trust me.

The rubber rolling paper came apart within 3 or 4 weeks of daily use, I could've fixed it with super glue, but didn't have any at the time, plus it shouldn't have fell apart in the first place.

I bought 2 of these and they are both junk. If you use filters, the paper does not seal the filter and the diameter of the roll is 25% bigger than a regular roll. The rollers are too small in diameter which creates this problem.

Not impressed. Seems to be great paper, but glue doesn't hold, smokes fall apart half way through.

These things run so awful, they go out so quickly, they almost make me not want to smoke at all they make me so mad.

these are very hard to use, the glue doesn't stick, very thin, tear easily

Beware--these are not the organic ones as stated in the title and description.

These are not organic and the title says they are.

These were kind of harsh when I used them. I did not enjoy using them
