These envelopes are easy to work with and lightweight for mailing. They are the perfect size for 81/2 " by 11 " paper folded in half. Writing and labels show up distinctly on the white background.
A great price for a reasonable bundle; quantity of 250. The price is roughly about $.014 per envelope (depending on your local tax percentage) which has saved me a bundle with my business and helped keep the profits amount higher! These envelopes are the perfect size (6"x9") and have the opening on the longer side which makes stuffing folded documents in a breeze. The "sticky" never fails and seals the deal on these envelopes which brings me to my only compliant; wished they were press-n-seal instead of the lick-n-seal.
Nice even quality mailing envelope for booklets made from 8.5" X 11" paper. Travels through the mail well. Gum is more than adequate to stay sealed - easy to use.
Envelopes are fine but the packaging is terrible. I had to go to 2 stores just to find a box with envelopes that weren't all bent up because the box isn't strong enough to stay together when you pick it up. Then the flap won't go back into the box. The box is an inconvenient size to fit in only one hand though that is because of the quantity. If you don't pick it up with two hands forget it - it falls apart. I have called and complained about this to Staples but they recently changed the design on the box without making any improvements in the strength of the cardboard used to make the box itself. Even a longer flap on the lid so it would stay inside when the box is moved would help immensely. My advice is to take them out of the box and store in a different container.
I like the texture and color however they do not allow very well for printing return address thru a HP Officejet 6500. Every time I print an envelope it ruins the flap.
