Just ok.

These labels are a good value. They are tough easy to print and the adhesive is very good. The problem is that they are virtually impossible to peel. There is only one separation point and if you lose that you'll never get the backing off. It's very annoying.
While it is only humanly possible to remove the backing starting at the center this works out just fine for printing prepaid mailing labels at usps.com or on PayPal. Much less expensive than the Avery labels so can't recommend more highly for this use.
Good value but too many times the darn labels are just too hard to separate from the backing. Avery labels are better as they have the backing split that can be easily removed.
Much handier to label packages than having to glue on paper however I cut them into 2 different pieces and where i cut doesn't always line up with the peel line on the backing. It would be nice if the paper was also perforated.
I use this product to adhere dictated progress notes to our patients charts. Staples brand has only one "crack" for the crack and peel function and it is not diagonal so it only works for one section. There is no inset on the edge that allows for peeling either. I spend way too much time trying to separate the notes from the backing.
