The quality of the paper is good and the colors are accurately described. There is no gradation to the colors as if the ink were incompletely applied. It is important to note that this product is sold as a partial ream so the cost per sheet is somewhat misleading. The purpose of the purchase was to experiment with varying background colors to go behind flyer text with the text of varying colors and the effects could be accurately reviewed so it fulfilled this purpose. The packaging is a shrink wrap which makes it difficult to remove single test sheets. Because it is being used for testing at this time a side open or a top open box would allow short-term storage while maintaining accessibility. Overall a better than average product suited for my purposes and accurately described by its title.
I'm sure this paper is good however it was purchased as a gift for one of my kids teachers. They were running out of colored paper in the teacher room and she was certainly stocked up on PLENTY of disinfecting wipes so I bought her some paper. I love paper and understand how it can be something frivolous but exciting. Not to mention I know what kind of my own $$ I spent when I was teaching.... I always found nice product at Staples.
This was a good quality paper and I used it to make prayer cards for my church group. I laminated them and they held up well. We use them at all our meetings and we carry them in our purses and use them for funeral masses as well. The color is bright enough but still can be read easily. We added our logo which displayed nicely. We will be purchasing this paper again to be used for the same purpose. It is definitely a good value and is not too expensive. I would also try the other pastel colors.
I love that there is a great color selection!!! I can't speak specifically to the quality because it was purchased as a gift but have always found products I was happy with at Staples.
