I am about to order my 3rd pack of these. I use them for a variety of purposes - keeping special photos safe and as a semi-waterproof covering for handmade notebook covers, stickers, and bookmarks.
I often work with a different brand's 4mm thickness sheets, and those are great, for what I use them for. Though I didn't see it in the description, if I had to compare, I would say these are closer to a 2mm thickness, which is PERFECT when used on actual photos, card stock, and to cover my stickers. Especially with the stickers as the 4mm thick ones can be a bit TOO thick and make the stickers "chunky" once they're put on water bottles, cell phone cases, etc.
If you've ever worked with self-adhesive laminating sheets before, you know how to put them on without them bubbling.
For those new to laminating, if you're not doing a full page but want to laminate both sides of an item - cut one piece to roughly 1/2" bigger, on all sides, than what you're laminating. Cut another piece to around 1" larger. Fully tear off the backing from the smaller sheet. Place your item as close as possible to one corner. Slowly push down, diagonally, from one corner to the other. Then, peel the backing away from ONE corner of the slightly larger sheet, smooth on at one corner and, again, work diagonally until the full item is covered. Trim as desired.
Admittedly, both packages I have ordered so far have been in flimsy packaging, but none of the pages were never damaged and all 280 (2 packs of 140 sheets) have been crystal clear.
I would definitely recommend these over the name brands if you're looking for thinner laminating sheets. A pack of 140 of these is the same price (or cheaper) than what a couple name brands sell their 50 sheet packages for, so it's a great deal, they're easy to use, and my projects have all come out well.
All that said, do note: They DO curl if left out of the package with the laminating side face up. If you're taking out a few sheets to use right away, be sure to place them on a flat surface with the backing side face up to prevent that from happening. Otherwise, it's best to just leave them in the zipper bag they come in - on a flat surface - until needed.
