Tops8.5 x 11.75 Legal Pads, 12 Pack, The Legal Pad Brand, Wide Ruled, Yellow Paper, 50 Sheets Per Writing Pad, Made in the USA (7532)

Great for our every day use around the office. Great Value for the number of pads you receive. Paper is perfect for what we needed.

I am impressed by these pads. In reading the comments, I think your level of satisfaction depends on your intended use and a little common sense. These are everyday pads, not the Gold pads, so they are made from 16 lb paper, have a thin backing, and no cover. So, to expect them to withstand rain, markers, and wear and tear is silly and obviously not what they were designed for. These pads are best used as a refill in a padfolio (longer term) or a clipboard (short term) in situations where you need to capture or share handwritten information - in a compact and convenient way - such as in a briefcase or carried with you to a meeting. The 16 lb paper and thin backing keeps the pad thin enough to fit inside a case with a laptop, books, or other carry alongs where if too thick you have to jettison paper altogether. The pad is used for a short period of time and often one sided - as unlike a spiral bound notebook, pages as flipped back behind the padfolio or clipboard. There is no need for a cover to protect the oages from curling or getting wet because the padfoilio takes care if that. It enables the user to invest in a thin protective leather case and buy cheap refills. The other thing that I like about these pads is that the paper is really smooth. With these and the Sanford Jetstream pens, I feel like I am treating myself. And, as I normally type, handwriting is rare, so I like the fact that there is less hand fatigue and drag to slow me down and make my handwriting sloppy. So, these pads are great for rigorous use if in a protective cover. If you are looking for the pad to provide the protection, pay more for 20 lb paper, a thick stiff backing, and/or a cover. Those run $2 each not $1 each. If you are looking for a staple bound but perforated pad for your padfolio that is thin enough to take with you and smooth enough to enjoy writing on, these are a great deal.

Ideal for note-taking, brainstorming, or written composition on thick, lined yellow paper.

They are legal pads. They work. Buy them. Great price.

Great Product but the packaging wreaked of cigarette smoke? So bad i put it outside.

Products were good

In the age of electronic notepads I still find uses for these traditional yellow pads. This 12 pack will last me a while but its great quality and worth the price.

I like the size, it great for notes
