How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsPerfectly Adequate
Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2018
I bought the 1,500 sheet size and was delighted to see that the three paper wrapped reams come in a nice, sturdy little box. I am not quite sure what else to say other than it is white and it works. Oh, I like that there is a three ream size so that I can get more than just one ream and less than a giant box.

This paper is 20 pound weight. Yes, it is on the thin side. There are plenty of heavier weights to choose from if this doesn't work for you. I just did a quick check and saw that there are 22 and 25 pound weights for sale here on Amazon.

1.0 out of 5 starsNOT Jam Free
Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2019
My only recommendation to others is DO NOT BUY THIS PAPER. The information posted, plus the label on the reams states "99% Jam Free." It is anything but jam free. I have used printing/copy paper of many different weights in my laser printers for years, but never this particular brand and 20lb weight. Never before have I suffered with paper jams in the printers. This paper, I have suffered numerous jams on different laser printers. The last jam, I just cleaned out of the printer, which was so severe that I had to disassemble the printer insides to get it out. The paper sheet is so thin (cannot be 20lb!) it bunched up in a half-inch jam that it took well over an hour to disassemble the printer (using screwdriver), pry the paper bunch out using medical hemostats (the bunch broke into small chips when attempting to pull out of the mechanism), and then reassemble the printer. It was bunched up so tightly that it was impossible to pull out just by opening the printer covers. I replaced this paper with another brand 20 LB paper that I had very little left and printing is complete and smooth, no jams. This Hammermill paper has caused at least 8 - 10 jams, the last jam being the worst, the prior jams were pulled out by opening the printer covers. Only a quarter of the first ream has been used, but I am now stuck with 3 reams of paper that is not even good enough for toilet paper. I will NEVER, EVER buy Hammermill brand paper again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Came opened/ripped
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2021
Size: 1 Ream | 500 SheetsStyle: A4Verified Purchase
The papers the cover came with was already ripped and opened. This does not seem like a delivery issue because the main box was ok but looks like the product was already ripped and opened when packaged. The papers inside are intact but i am not sure if there are papers missing since it was completely open when arrived. I will not be returning because i need to print something right away on an A4 size paper which aren’t readily available in retail shops near me, plus the papers inside looks fine.

2.0 out of 5 stars Low quality paper
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2021
Size: 1 Ream | 500 SheetsStyle: A4Verified Purchase
Paper arrived in ripped packaging, with some pages on both ends of the ream torn or folded as other reviews have mentioned. The paper feels thinner than 20lbs copy, and wrinkles very easily. Some of the pages I've used so far don't have perfectly straight edges, instead have small jagged cuts. In addition to this, when looked at under bright light, you can see that there are splotches where the thickness of the paper varies quite a bit. It does absorb ink well, and doesn't seem to smudge so at least it has that going for it. I wouldn't order again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too thin
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2022
Size: 1 Ream | 500 SheetsStyle: A4Verified Purchase
I was looking for A4 papers and was glad that I found this package of A4 papers at that time. It was for printing the document, but quality of the papers was not that good and they were too thin. So I felt too embarrassed to submit this paper as documents. I had to re-purchased other A4 papers (Kokuyo KB paper). Now I'm using this paper as scratch paper.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too Hard to Open the Plastic Wrap
Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2018
Size: 5 Ream | 2500 SheetsStyle: Letter (8.5x11)Verified Purchase
I had read a review of someone who sounded so annoyed because they couldn't open the poly wrapped reams of paper. I thought that was kind of silly, but you know what? It's very annoying to try and open these reams of paper wrapped in plastic. You can't rip them open with your hands, you have to get a scissor, then you're cutting the paper with the scissor. No, just No. I just ordered the paper wrapped reams and life is better. The paper wrapped reams are annoying and who needs that when you're trying to work, or ever..... I liked just the box of paper with no wrapped reams, but now I can't seem to find that. I like reamless paper

2.0 out of 5 stars Very thin paper
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2022
Size: 1 Ream | 500 SheetsStyle: A4Verified Purchase
The description says 20 lb paper. I have been using 20 lb paper for the longest time, and this is *not* 20 lb (I compared them side by side). It is way thinner and the printing shows on the reverse side. I thought being Hammermill, it would live up to its brand name, but it does not. So just be aware that this is very thin copy paper and not good for any kind of quality documents

2.0 out of 5 stars Only 400 sheets!
Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2020
Size: 1 Pack - Small | 400 SheetsStyle: Letter (8.5x11)Verified Purchase
I was surprised to see how small this package of paper is. I expected a full ream, which is 500 sheets, and this "ream" is only 400. Admittedly, if you look closely, the description does say it's only 400 sheets, but I've never seen a ream that wasn't 500 so I didn't even read the description. I thought $9.99 was kind of pricey for a ream of paper in the first place, and to learn that it's for 20% less product than I expected is really irritating.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a good deal after all!
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2015
Size: 6 Pack | 2400 SheetsStyle: Letter (8.5x11)Verified Purchase
I don't know what it is about this paper but my printer keeps jamming since I started using it! I've gone back to school and have a lot of stuff to print out and every time I turn around I keep getting an error message with this paper! I even tried paper from another company just to see if it was this paper or the printer and with the other paper, I printed out 24 pages with no problem at all! Waste of money!

2.0 out of 5 stars Sticks together
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2020
Size: 1 Pack - Bulk | 750 SheetsStyle: Letter (8.5x11)Verified Purchase
This stuff keeps getting stuck together or jamming in my printer. This is the first time I bought more than 450 sheets at a time. I don't really use that much, but this stuff is not to my satisfaction. Will avoid this brand at all costs.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor shipment
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2021
Size: 500 Sheets (Pack of 3)Style: Legal (8.5x14)Verified Purchase
The package came broken up the individual ream covers were torn causing the edges of paper to fail to be accepted by the printer causing to throw away a lot of paper. Plus the cost increased by 50%. For my purpose that was my last purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars No better than the $3 dollar copy paper at Walmart!
Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2019
Size: 1 Ream | 500 SheetsStyle: Letter (8.5x11)Verified Purchase
Only purchased this because I had left over gift card balance I wanted to get rid of and I thought it would be much better quality then the $3 copy paper I've been buying at Walmart for years. That however is not the case. This copy paper is virtually identical to the $3 copy paper at Walmart. Don't overpay for this. It's a ripoff!
