Review on Hammermill Assorted Colors Cardstock: 110lb, 8.5 x 11, 1 Pack (200 Sheets) - Thick Cardstock, Made in USA by Kelsey Brown

Definitely not a 110 lb box

I've used Hammermill paper of various weights over the years. Putting this next to the 100lb Hammermill cardstock paper, the 100lb Hammermill paper is significantly heavier than the alleged 110lb Hammermill paper. I thought those reviews questioning/doubting the thickness of this paper were from people who had unreasonable expectations of what 110 pounds would feel/look like. None of the apples I saw mentioned comparing apples to apples with more or less thick/heavy paper from the same manufacturer. If you use a rotary cutter, you will find that you can cut more sheets of 110 pound Hammermill paper than you can cut 100 pound Hammermill paper. It is clear that either 100lb is underrated or 110lb is overrated. I compare Hammermill to Hammermill. Buy 100lb box as it is actually much thicker and heavier than this 110lb box. The only benefit of this card over a 110lb card is that it curls a little less in a laser printer.

Pros
  • Arts, Crafts & Sewing
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Semi-sturdy at 110 lb. It is NOT Christmas green but lighter version of it, ok for Christmas.
