My husband and I have been buying Marlboro Light 100's for about 12 years now. And we have noticed the last carton we bought, the cigarettes don't burn right, you have to light the cigarettes at least four times just to get through one. We are very disappointed in this and will not be purchasing Marlboro's anymore.

I been a marlboro light 100's smoker for many years, and with in the several years, I found that they just don't taste or even smoke right, they really suck, I hate them, and I'm not ready to quit just yet, So I will have to switch to a different brand. I will be sending PHILLIP MORRIS A NOTE ON HOW BAD ALL THE MARLBORO CIGS. ARE.

Annnd start burning filter about alittle over an inch n half before the paper even reachs the filter Paper. WTF! i wish i had the luxury of switching off this Peice of ### brand now. But sadly those are the ciggs. My parents smoke. They'll be switching soon though.

I Have been smoking Marlboro 100 for 27 years and have never had any problems, but that last carton I got the cig had holes poke in them so I thought you might light to know.

I smoke Marlboro brand cigarettes and pay the high price to do so. I am very disappointed lately with the quality . The tobacco is loose the paper it's rolled with is not sealed tight which causes the tobacco to fall out or burn poorly. I pay to much for this product to be defective and this is not just one occurrence! It's repeatedly happening and the company needs to be aware.. For this quality I might as well roll my own! Very unhappy!

I bought a pack of Marlboro's special blend lights and the whole pack of cigarettes tasted awful.. Like a chemical taste that made me light headed.. I stopped trying to see if they were all like that after a few cigarettes.. The box that held the smokes was perfectly sealed properly so i don't know why they tasted so awful..

bought 3 cartons of unsmokable marlboros".
80$ a carton and if their tring to deliberately kill people quickly why pick on the working man?i been smoking over 20 yrs. and never had this happen before ive been shopping all over but getting the same thing, (1)one cigerette stomache ... If i dont find my regular marlboro like very soon 1-2 days im going to another country. Sick of paying for you to give me a stomache
I understand why they put fire ###ent so they go out quickly, i've smoked them without incident.but since end of january ive tested like 10 cartons all the same get me a regular pack of cigerettes or heads will roll.oh yea my coworkers agree too its not just me their are 30 welders at this plant and the cigerettes are either tasteless or they give an emedit stomache .

My husband and I have smoked Marlboro Lights for years. The cost became outrageous here in Texas. So, we added nicotine replacements to cut back. This worked for awhile, but we decided to cut more costs by switching to Marlboro Light Special Selects. About three days after the switch we both got sick. We thought it was a coincidence and kept smoking the cheaper cigarettes. It seemed to get worse. The plhegm in our lungs was horrible. Hacking yucky stuff! We had never had an issue with this before. Recently, we purchased a new vehicle and decided to cut back smoking even further by not smoking during drives. Our smoking was cut in half, throughout the day. Immediate improvement with our lung phlegm, but still there we never had this issue before with the more expensive Lights. Just curious if anyone else is noticing adverse effects from the cheap alternative? And why are Special Selects so much cheaper?

So when I switch to them I had way more problems I switched back immediately. I literally just noticed that Marlboro ultra lights are burning really really fast and that's how I came across this post. Like literally in the last couple weeks. July 15th as of today even my wife that doesn't smoke but two cigarettes a year. How fast they were burning and how many more cigarettes I've been smoking recently. Almost like they aren't packed as tight or the filter has more holes in them or something making them burn really really fast and they're really really expensive so they keep burning so fast we're going to be broke! Quitting is not an option I've tried everything been smoking since I was 12ish. Puffing cigars before that every time we went fishing. Keep the bugs away air quotations""""!
