slight variance in window height
on October 29, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
We needed a security envelope with one window on the left. This was the only item available through Staples our preferred office supplies store. We have noticed that the window height from the bottom of the envelope will vary by a slight amount causing issues when a check is placed inside. The dollar amount can be seen and we have to tape the check just a hair higher so the amount does not show. We have gotten full boxes of envelopes where we have had to do this but then other boxes have been fine and the checks fit perfectly. Overall we like this product since it meets our needs.

Inside ink transfers onto papers
on November 11, 2015
Posted by: Paula K.
These do do the job. I like the size of these envelopes as well as the self-sealing feature and security tinting on the inside. However the security tinting is also a con of this envelope. The blue ink from it transfers to whatever note check or letter is on the inside. The reason I know this is that a number of letters we mass-mailed in this envelope were returned to us and they were all tinted blue from the ink transfer. A better quality ink should be used for the security tinting It does not come off as very professional if a client receives a professional letter that appears dirty.

Not as specified

I am glad that alot of people are pleased with this product. I however am not. I depend largely on the description given in the specifications paragraph because my accounting program is not easy to manipulate to change how the checks print. I thought I was home free when I ordered this item because the specs read that the address window is 1/2" from the left side and 5/8" from the bottom of the envelope. For those of you who are looking for a very specific window placement as I was the window is actually 1" from the left side and 3/4" from the bottom. Good luck I hope this helps. I do not usually type reviews because I am always pinched for time. However I thought if I could save another fellow business person a little time and aggravation it would be worth the effort. Have a wonderful day!

Too much glue.
on March 19, 2012

Glue often goes past side seams and makes it difficult to get checks in the envelope. It is unreliable when you have to pre open the envelopes before you can insert the checks.

not printer friendly

I need to put our return address on these envelopes but the plastic melted in 2 different types of printers. I now have to make labels to put on the envelopes. I guess that's good for the label makers but causes me extra expense and work.
