[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how simple Avery makes their products for the average consumer... they make it even easier with their design and cut website. I love that I can design, print and get everything done in quickly and efficiently with any of the products they offer.
The postcards are perfectly sized for my project. Easy to use and the printing on it was perfect. I will definitely be getting more of these when another project is needed! As a busy business owner, these post cards make it easy to quickly send out a thank you or hello to my customers!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an extremely high quality product I used for my buisness they came out perfect not one flaw no bleed lines didn't smear the texture is perfect I could not be happier I highly recommend to anyone
We wanted a quick handout for a festival for our business. This worked great and using the Avery design helped get it formatted just right. I used them in a HPinkjet printer and they fed well through it. I did not try it on a big printer so I cannot give you a review for that type of printing.
I just used these to print 72 postcards for a class reunion announcement. I printed on both sides of the card with my HP LaserJet Pro printer. I had no problem with them going through the printer and the printing look great on both sides of the card. I had no problem separating the cards after completing the printing of them.
Microsoft Word does not have a 5689 label template in the Mail Merge. I found that template 8315 Wide is the same size. There is a wide and a tall version of this template available.
What others have said about the perforations being poor quality will be said here as well. Beyond being hard to separate at the perforations, sometimes the paper rips on the inside of the card as well. The other problem, sort of, is that it is something like 38 pound paper, and my humble little printer tops out at 28 pounds that it can tolerate. The cards can feed through, but the laser toner doesn't always stick and it smudges off, or there's blank spots. The card stock is better than paper for printing out invitations and the like, and the perforations are cleaner than my trying to cut with scissors (4 to a page on plain paper). But, the product is sub-par overall. That people have complained about it for years and it's still having perforation problems doesn't say much for Avery.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We are very sorry to hear that and we apologize for the frustration. We do have products with a Clean Edge feature that makes the edges neater without the dotted perforated edge but this feature is not available with our Postcards at the moments. But we will let our team know that this feature would be appreciated across more products.
These post cards are durable and have a good weight to them. I use them for all of my mailings. On occasion, they get stuck in the printer, but since I have a quality printer, it is just a matter of unjamming the paper. I did have to get a new printer after my lower-quality one got jammed and was unfixable. Also, they don't always break as clean as I would like, but that being said, they are much cleaner than some of the other post cards out there.
