I purchased the pencils and glue sticks to donate to our local schools. These items were on the list provided for this charity. Having been an educator for 48 yrs I know the Staples products are reliable.
This glue is pretty good for short term usage. I gave it a 4 because it goes on smooth the color disappears and it sticks very well. Over time months or a year it slowly starts to peel. The peel is clean though... that's another reason for the 4 star.
