📦 25 lbs. of Newsprint/Packing Paper (approx. 24x36) Review

First of all, this is not newsprint. This is a very smooth paper. Smooth to the point that it slips off the stack when folded. And about every fourth piece resembles wax paper in its texture. Tape doesn't stick to it. So I have to throw away the parts. I have bought this brand before and this has never happened. I opened it and saw what it was. I think I'm stuck with this now. I will definitely not order this again.

Contrary to other reviewers - I really like this sturdy, heavyweight coated paper. It creates a solid cradle around my crystal and folds clearly, I'm so glad I'm ordering again. The only problem, as others have pointed out, is that since it's sold by weight, you end up with fewer sheets. This isn't a problem for me as I have to use three sheets of regular newsprint and only one or two of this paper. This is a GOOD paper. and if you can be sure of getting a shine - make it for your kids to paint

I have ordered newsprint from Revain a number of times over the last few months and the paper is actually the same weight as regular newsprint. However, this paper is a hybrid of what appears to be "factory seconds". The weight of the paper is very heavy and as it is sold for 25 pounds there are significantly fewer sheets in a ream. Also every third sheet of glossy paper. I wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for regular newsprint to wrap items. Works great if you just want to fill the…

After one day I saw professional movers packing my things, for my last move I ordered unprinted newsprint from a local packing company. For this move I ordered this pack from Revain and it was as expected. It wasn't glossy paper as another commenter said - mine was thin clean matte newsprint, perfect for wrapping. I am a foodie and generously packed a dinnerware set for 8 plus wine glasses, barware, glass bakeware etc. There are 17 kitchen boxes in total, plus various breakable household items…

I buy these regularly to line the cages of our 13 rescue parrots. When I first started buying them the sizing was pretty consistent and the quality was consistent and I would give five stars. But the last few times, the size has been constantly changing, each time a little more or less. Then the last thing I got looked like it was the leftovers of the day. Many sheets are badly crumpled. I had to throw a few outside because they were too crumpled to use. Some of them are very large while others

I have read reviews that say heavyweight coated paper is not very suitable for packaging and in my worn condition from our move I have ordered this bag anyway. Mistake! I'm one of those who received smooth surface paper. We used it anyway, but not for fragile items. It folds and crumples too tight to be used for anything other than to fill extra space or fold for a little padding at the bottom and top of boxes. It also curls and creases with sharp edges: be careful not to cut yourself with it…

I bought this to fill voids. This is not a newspaper. As other reviewers have written, it is matte on one side and glossy on the other. This is the quality of thick paper, like a premium book dust jacket. You could wrap the book in it and ship it as is. As long as it's locked properly. I only paid €19.83. It was sent in a flat box but it was folded at the bottom of the box upon delivery. I would like to put it in a plastic bag. The paper was discolored and torn from being thrown around in a box
