To begin I have used these envelopes for about four years now both the security and non security ones. These envelopes are sturdy and look great plus they were reasonably priced. This last shipment was somewhat different that those in the years past they do not lay flat in my printer. I have 3 Epson WF 3640's printers ranging from probably 8 or 9 years old to fresh out of the box last week so I can't speak for performance in all printer makes just these Epsons. Like I said they do not lay flat and thus my printers have a problem feeding them. I believe the problem is with the manufacturer and not in the design. I believe there is stress on the envelope due to improper folding alignment which is cocking (warping?) one edge higher than the others. I solve the problem by stacking a couple day's use of envelopes on a sturdy flat table and putting a heavy weight on them. They press flat within 24 hours and are good to go without any problems.
The Staples Gummed Security Tint #10 Envelopes White in color on the outside work very well. The glue on the envelope tongue is very effective after moistening and much better for the environment than the self adhesive variety.
These are the best security envelopes. I almost said they “can’t be licked”but you have to if you want to seal them! I would highly recommend these if you want your envelopes to keep inside what you place inside!

Envelopes are very good quality and security feature is also very good. I use a water bottle with a sponge to wet the seal on my envelopes and these do not disintegrate from the water! Great product.

These envelopes provide more security for paying bills because you can't see through them. I finally bought a big box because the unit price per envelope is cheaper than buying small boxes and I use them a lot. Unlike buying big boxes of cereal these don't go stale before they get used up! The price was good and shipping was free for my order because I'm a Rewards member. It doesn't get much better than that
Perfect for any business or personal letter. Price was so good too.

As chairman of our class reunion every two years I always look for the perfect envelopes for our mailing. This was perfect! Easy to stuff easy to add labels to and very easy to seal. The stamping was simple because the envelopes laid flat and did not move. Great for the price!
