For everyday use it is great. The kids use it for coloring and I like it for basic printing and copying. I have used this brand for years and have found it to be just fine.
I originally purchased this paper about six months ago after a Staples sales person explained all the paper types and characteristics. At that time I think I recall getting a ream of it for free(after rebate). I took it home and enjoyed it alot more than the paper I was using at the time. I have made a couple more purchases of different types since then but I have always come back to the Staples multipurpose paper. Its the perfect weight and brightness for any job. So when this case deal came up (with the rebate) I jumped at the opertunity.
