Good practice paper
I bought these papers for swatches and some quick sketches. They do not disappoint. They are a bit thin, as indicated on the description, and swell in the areas you apply some watercolor. But the color application is good and there is no loss of vibrancy when they dry. The texture of the surface is similar to a NOT Saunders Waterford paper and you can use both sides of the same paper to a similar effect. I would not encourage to use them for wet on wet techniques as the surface dries quickly or for your next masterpiece, but these are good enough for practicing and definitely worth for the price.

Quality is hit and miss
Always loved this paper, for the price and quantity of sheets, it's brill.
Just take the paper weigh and quality, with a pinch of salt. Bought two packs, they were dramatically different in thickness, one looked like it was missing sheets. I weighed them before opening and there was more than 100g difference between them.
After opening and counting though, there were in fact 50 sheets in each.
Good for kids, quick watercolour art, or something thats not going to be framed.
Wouldn't recommend for anything other than that. I personally use for artwork that is scanned in and touched up on a computer so I use them more as a base, than finished pieces. They do warp quite a bit, and it's a 'hold the lid of the scanner down' scenario each time to make sure it's flat.
Would recommend though if you're on a budget and just need something that holds watercolour better than standard papers.

A great product, multiple uses.
For such a small price, this is a ver good quality watercolour paper. Very good for practicing on or trying out ideas before commiting to expensive paper. In it's own right, it has a good tooth, and I've produced some very pleasing paintings with this product. I use it for Line & Wash, Watercolour, Pencil, Watercolour pencil art and sometimes I apply it with a thin coat of acrylic paint before turning it into an acrylic landscape painting. The paper take a good amount of water and doesn't cockle too much. I can recommend this paper for other crafts as well.

Rotten watercolour paper
Too thin and absorbs too much water. But I knew that before purchase. I used it to print some paintings (worked on proper paper) I had done to make cards with. The slight texture to the paper took the print well and many people thought I had painted each card individually. Perfect product for my intentions.

You get what you pay for
Not the best water colour paper and I probably wouldn't buy it again unless I was on an economy drive and wanted it for something that wouldn't demand too much of it. It doesn't stand up to wet in wet as well as other more expensive brands but you get what you pay for at the end of the day.

Needs stretching
For 300g it goes too wavy. Needs stretching before painting

Good for the price
I was looking for watercolour paper, but didn't want the high quality, expensive stuff as this was going to be for my children to experience watercolour painting on. So this was fine for that. If you want to do some fine work, go for the quality paper, but this will do for fun.

Great paper at a great price.
I buy this paper for an Art Group I run. Although we appreciate quality, we also need "to watch the pennies". This paper meets both- great value particularly with pack discounts.
