I have used these legal pads for taking notes in class for two years now. They are nice, because you don''t have to deal with any of the annoyances that come with typical notepad paper, e.g., holes in the sheet, rough or uneven edges. However, this is a bad thing for those that like to put their notes into a three-ring binder.

The downside is, unless you are ok with having fold creases on your pages (folding it back over the pad), you will need to remove each sheet before moving on to the next one. It takes some practice to rip exactly on the perforation for a clean break, but once you get the feel for it, you''ll get it 100%.

Sometimes professors require homework/formula sheets to be exactly 8 1/2" x 11". That''s ok for these legal pads, because although it''s listed as 8 1/2" x 11 1/2", once you remove the sheet at the perforation line, you will lose that extra 1/2 inch.

A major plus for these legal pads are the cardboard backings, because they can work as standalone tables on your lap. This is contrary to most notepads, which are flimsy and require a hard surface--especially when the paper is running low.

As for price, it''s competitive with the market. Buy the 12-pack for extra value.

I recommend these pads for students or business people. Writers and artists may like to look elsewhere, because of the fold creases mentioned above and the difficulty in keeping your work private (no cover).

There are crumpled papers within each pad. This means you never have a flat, smooth, even surface. There are just enough problem pages in each pad to make problems for the whole pad, but not enough that you will give up and just toss the whole pad and order something else. I won''t order this item again.

There is nothing wrong with the paper in these pads, that I''ve seen -I tend to use legal pads by flipping back the pages, not tearing them out -but the problem lies in the lack of any stiffness to the backing cardboard. It is thin and very flexible. If you''re writing on a desk, fine. But if you''re writing on your knee, or freestanding, you''re going to have problems.

Not a whole lot one can say about writing tablets. These are of good quality and the price was right. They were also shipped promptly after ordering and were as described.

The paper is fine. It tears nicely. But, it''s nearly useless as far as I''m concerned. Really, why have a backing at all if you''re going to make it so flimsy??
