How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsGood value for money😉😉
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 January 2021
I'd read reviews about boxes arriving battered to hell with paper creased/ruined. I was desperate for a stack of paper and with all the Covid setbacks I chose to order this paper.

I won't lie the outer box had taken a bit of a beating but it was strong enough to protect the paper, this is of course not the sellers problem but the lack of respect by the courier, a widescale issue that should be resolved. Each ream was undamaged and upon using the paper I was very impressed.

It was a nice stock and not a shade of grey some of the cheaper paper sometimes is. I would definitely buy this again and would happily recommend it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap but thin and not the best quality
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 March 2021
Verified Purchase
I often buy paper in reams of 5 and this was comparable in price to other purchases and the best price available at the time.
It came in a good condition with no damage to the box.
It’s pretty cheap paper. Ok just about for printing text but anything heavier and it shows through badly to the other side. If you write on it with any sort of ink pen you can only use one side of the paper.
I’ve included a photo of the reverse side of the paper with fairly light writing on it in a fine pen. It’s not useable on the other side.
In summary, cheap, but I won’t buy it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Basic and absolutely fine
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2020
Verified Purchase
Entirely adequate plain white paper, reasonable tone of white (unlike the very yellowy recycled stuff you sometimes see). Good thickness, consistent sizing and quality.

Basic, but no less useful because of it...

3.0 out of 5 stars Poor quality 75 GSM
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 January 2021
Verified Purchase
I ordered 75 GSM paper. I am not pleased with the quality. The texture and the cut of the paper feels poor quality. I opened the pack and the edges of the paper are a shade of light blue. The paper does the job, but I would not buy the 75 GSM again. Maybe consider 80 GSM in the future after I get through 5 packs of this paper. I’m looking forward to getting through it to be honest.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good value all-round printer paper
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 June 2021
Verified Purchase
This is decent quality paper for general office / home use.
It's bright white, not especially smooth, but takes ink fine from my HP Envy inkjet.
Wouldn't want to use it for high-quality pics, but it's perfect for everyday admin.
Much cheaper than buying a single ream locally - just be aware that you're buying x5 packets so that's 2500 sheets...
8/10

5.0 out of 5 stars Great deal!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 February 2022
Verified Purchase
Perfect amount for our needs, and plenty of paper to work through.

We home educate our kids so tend to go through quite a bit of paper for drawing, arts and crafts etc.

It’s well priced too and good value for the money.

Highly recommended, let me know if this review was helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good value paper
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 October 2021
Verified Purchase
I am very pleased with this paper. Using primarily with a HP colour laser jet printer this is giving perfect results. 75g/m2 paper is a good weight for everyday printing. I use slightly heavier weight for reports where I want to create an impression. Happy to recommend this paper. It was with me in less than 24 hours and the box was in good condition.

1.0 out of 5 stars Breaks my copier
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 March 2022
Verified Purchase
I have a Xerox copier and when I used this paper, it jammed it up every 5-6 sheets. It was an absolute nightmare and almost broke the whole copier. Yet when I use Tesco or Argos paper, it works fine. I am now stuck with reams of this paper that does not work in the copier.
