Review on πŸ“¦ 10 lb Newsprint / Packing Paper Sheets - 24"x36" Size by Yvonne Roybal

Revainrating 3 out of 5

If you are looking for wrapping paper for your move, look elsewhere!

The images provided by Revain are not entirely accurate, the paper is not newspaper thin, very thick, heavyweight plain paper - with an almost glossy sheen. It is not easy to compress to cushion in boxes, and its thickness makes it difficult to pack things. Also, you hear "10 pounds" and think you're getting a lot, but it's actually so thick and heavy it could be 50 sheets - I could fit it all in 2-3 medium sized boxes. I went to Lowe's and bought real newsprint for $9.99 and probably three times as many sheets for half the price. You can see the difference in the picture I've attached, the bottom paper is a product sold at Revain, the top is a Lowe's newspaper style. If you are looking for something similar to packing boxes in a "moving situation". , this is not the paper for you.
