Review on 🎨 Sax Sulphite Drawing Paper, 80 lb, 9 x 12 Inches, Extra-White: Pack of 500 - High Quality Art Supplies! by Teresa Thomas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Should it smell?

Bought this for my kids art projects after reading the reviews. I've never bought sulfite paper so maybe it's common, but it clearly smelled like death in cling wrap and permeated every sheet to our delight. It was terrible. We put it in the garage thinking maybe it just needs some ventilation like some products do. My daughter made this into a surprise birthday card for me and I couldn't get my hands on it. We then used some soap and reached for vinegar and soda to scrub the rot off her hands - while she cried she just wanted to use the new paper. We are very careful about what we spend money on and it's such a disappointment when we don't enjoy a purchase.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Big and chunky
