Where have you been all my life?

This concept is GREAT. This seriously cuts the headache and time spent stacking shelf paper in half! However, there are a few things I would like to know before purchasing: 1) The instructions say to fold the perforations and use a ruler to pull the pieces apart. If you don't at least curl up before you break, the liner will WALK and jump over a line (or two or three) and pretty soon your pretty little teardrops won't be so neat. Take the time to fold and use the front edge of the shelf as a "straight edge" and everything will run smoothly. 2) Due to the perforation, the shelf is not fully waterproof. I use mine to line the bookshelves where I grow African violets, so I would prefer a solid liner. If I don't leave a puddle of water there, that's a good defense. 3) Please read the size carefully before purchasing. This material is expensive compared to traditional shelf liners and not much per roll. If you have a really large area to level, this may not be cost effective. 4) "Pure" isn't really clear. Preferably translucent. If I had known, I would have chosen the color. 5) Each roll comes in its own plastic box. I'm not a big fan of trees, but I'm not a fan of trash either. That's a lot of wasteful plastic packaging considering how little is on a roll. 6) It is slightly wavy at the edges. Maybe it will pass with time. If it's in a box with heavy things, that's no problem. In my case, on the bookcase shelves, curly edges are very noticeable and quite distracting.
