I gave this as a gift to the three kids in the family who enjoy making craft projects. I always get one ream of white and one each of two other colors. They enjoy it much more than if I had given them each a fancy food item or a gift card. Since they are always making birthday cards scrap book pages and odd-construction novelties they have a constant need for stationery supplies. Whenever we go to visit we always try to have the three reams of paper in a gift bag because it is a guaranteed hit. By now they have gotten enough different colors that they easily share even their favorites since they are never in danger of running out during a burst of creative energy.
The softer cream color of this paper makes it much easier on the eyes while still making the printed material clear and precise. I've switched away from bright white paper for use in my home printer because I find the cream to be a much better choice. I use printer paper primarily to print out records of on line orders and payments. With the cream toned paper the record is still crisp and clean but doesn't promote eye watering glare. The cream color gives a softer and in my opinion classier look to my records.
I don't like to use bright white paper but colors don't look professional. The cream color is a nice compromise between the two. It's less harsh and glaring yet doesn't look cutesy. It's also a good weight for everyday use. t would work well in presentations letters anywhere that you use regular weight paper. I especially like it for poetry and my writing. Another good thing is the price. I've bought expensive paper but I think this looks just as good at half the price. Overall it's an excellent buy.
I purchased this along with the hot lime paper which was available in 24# wt. i use this color for medical forms for a local medical office. Since the form is printed on both front and back and hand-written on both sides the 20# wt is just too thin. It was not available in 24# wt - disappointed -- but purchased it anyway as they had to have the forms in that color.
