Had to return these and get another brand. The finished product was very cloudy and not sealed. It was not my laminator. The other brand is working perfectly.
I have purchased laminating pouches for many years for my business. Various brands. I have even bought Staples brand before and had no issues. This purchase was for two boxes of them. After opening one of the boxes I noticed that my paper would not line up square in the pouch. If the sides were perfect then the top and bottom were crooked. No way to make my print look good. I took one box back. The second I had opened and will use for personal use when I can cut it down. I will not purchase Staples brand again.
For the difference in the pricing (Staples vs. Avery) these pouches worked great. I would definitely purchase them again. I have never gone wrong purchasing a "Staples" brand name item. Will continue to buy at Staples.
