I normally purchase Staple brand products instead of name brand if available. The quality has always been good and the price is typically more reasonable. The only negative issue I have with Staples involves their Rewards program. I have forgotten to use my card at times and have not been given credit for those purchases when I later attempt to have them added. This has cost me points/money on my Rewards account especially when the purchase involves the ink recycling program. If you are a Rewards member make sure to present your card EVERYTIME you make a purchase.
We've used Staples brand products for years and found them to be the same quality as named brand products. So we get the same high quality as we expect but at a lower price. In some instances the price is much lower making the value of our purchase extremely cost effective and advantageous.
