We use these as a nice alternative to the classic white envelope. We send much correspondence that does not require letterhead stationery and this dresses up the common look for our office. We try to project a classy look to everything connected to the office and this fits in well with our daily mailings.
The only issue I had with these is that the left edge of the "gummed" seal was already stuck down. I was printing and stuffing a large quantity of these in one sitting and it was a pain to have to unstick the left side from each one as daintily as possible before placing the flyer inside. Some of them came appart decently easily but others nearly ruined the look of the envelope which I cannot have as a advertisment for a church! However I suppose this was a minor flaw as everything else was find and they were inexpensive.
We like to use the cream colored #10 envelopes to put certificates in them. Beng they are important and legal documents it gives it a little classy and important look. A cream color envelopes catches your eye a little more than the orduinary white envelope. We're also able to print in bold letters the word "CERTIFICATE" on it to further show the importance of the certificate. It works well for us and we love them. Another great product from Staples. We not only recommend it but we'll keep on using it.
I needed to send a mailing out and didn't want to use plain old white paper and envelopes. I had Hammermill Pastel Ivory 24 lb. paper on hand and thought I'd find envelopes to match rather than buy more paper also. It was a greater challenge than I thought it would be but I tried these and they were a perfect match. As always Staples products are equal to or better than other more expensive brand names. I order all our office supplies from Staples and almost always order Staples brand.
These envelopes have changed the gum that seals the envelopes. When we print the envelope it seals and we have to re-open the envelope to stuff them and hopefully they will re-seal. Everything looks like it has been opened before it is sent out.
We use this product to print our own business envelopes in house. The quality is good and the price is excellent. These envelopes may not be suitable for someone looking for a heavyweight ultra professional resume type quality paper. But for general everyday use in the office they work very well. Our logo address et al prints very clearly and doesn't smudge like other products we've used. Overall I would recommend these envelopes to others. They look great and are easy on the budget.
Shopping online with Staples is both easy and efficient. My account retains my favorite products so that I do not have to search for them. That saves me a lot of time. I also like the fact that when I do goof up customer service is there to help me. How I managed to order all envelopes and no stationery is one of those great mysteries of life but I did. I immediately called customer service and with courtesy the representative revised my order. I really appreciated that. I also like that my whole order is shipped free as long as it totals at least $45. Moreover I order one day and get my office supplies the next. Good job Stapes. Good job!
