Anyone compare these to the more expensive Wonderbox = made of paper ? Are they worth the extra $$

The only real advantage of the Wonderbox is for the environment. Biodegradable.

These litter pans make clean-up very easy and quick. For us they are worth the extra money; we've ordered them several times and will keep on ordering them as long as we have our cat Vesuvius.

I've tried both kinds and find the plastic more economical. At about $8.75 for 3, wonderbox costs nearly about $2.90 per pan. The Kitty lounge is $49, but the package contains 50 pans, so $1 per box. I don't see much difference in usability since I use either one to line a regular cat box.

I don't know the paper weight but I will say they are well made of excellent quality material. I have used nearly half of my original order & will reorder soon. Haven't had any complaints from my mail recipients.

I'm not sure if these are the same, but I love my box of Paper Magic cards. I really bought this item to get the box to hold all my Hallmark, etc. cards, but I found the Paper Magic cards to be great!

no the ones I got were made of like cardboard... you can compare the cardboard to that of like cereal box or cake mix box. Is sturdy enough for what I needed it. I've had it since Christmas bought it to play with 6 and 9 year olds :)

I actually own both and I have to say, I like these pens much better for doing quicker, more rough sketches but they do tend to bleed a bit when I color over them with my Copic sketch markers. The Copic Multiliners are wonderful in the sense of having both refillable ink as well as replaceable nibs (tips), however the tips do not feel as durable and strong as the F.C. pens. I'm worried about bending or breaking the tips on them. Another issue is that they have a bit more of a "rough" feeling on paper, whereas the F.C.'s are much smoother and forgiving. I tend to use the Copic pens to finish and do details. FYI : With my Copic pens I use the sizes : 0.005, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7. With the Faber Castell pens I use the S (super fine) and F (fine) sizes. I was mainly referring to the 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 size Copics in my comparison above.

You are partly paying for brand, but they are freaking amazing. Well worth the 30 bucks, you might want to check some stores in your area though, sometime you can find better prices.

They're very nice, although possibly not really worth the additional cost over a box of Ticonderoga #2s. But if you can afford a treat for yourself, you will enjoy them. They sharpen just fine with any "real" pencil sharpener, but I wouldn't use one of those little plastic school sharpeners. If you have a real pencil sharpener handy, I'd skip the long point sharpener and get the box of additional erasers instead.

Just slightly less than the Memorex brand in my opinion, but it's hard to tell the difference. I tried a blind test with friends using the Kodak and Memorex. Most thought the sleeves were basically the same. Those who found a difference thought the Memorex was slightly better. If the prices were the same, I'd go with Memorex, but I've switched over to the Kodak because they work just as well and cost a whole lot less.

These would be an excellent choice. I was prepared to spend 3 times as much for a higher quality. I am glad I didn't. P.S. I use them to look at planes too.

They are made of paper but they are pretty sturdy - the paper isn't flimsy - and it's glossy. I thought they were surprising well made especially for the price.

I've used mine for that and it works okay, but I think that (despite the cost of special paper) the LiveScribe series does notes better. The inkling is better for sketching/drawing as the potential for a vector output is there.

I enjoy both but prefer the Qwirkle cubes. It gives you a chance for more choices.

I did use copy paper and was fine for awhile, and then the light just was in one place, Hubby took me to Hobby Lobby and brought me an adult one with 40% coupon and so, it lasted awhile, But if you are going to be using it a lot like I was invest in a upgraded one from the art dept. If for a child It will be good for awhile. I Did use copy paper, tried cardstock that was to heavy. Good Luck on which ever you decide.

They are paper. Actually they would be closer to card stock, or smooth cardboard.

I'm not sure. I gifted them. However, with my older set, I don't remember them being flimsy. They were similar to a new deck of cards. I also purchased the masters edition and these cards were crisp, even hard for me to shuffle. Had to divide the deck. I hope this answers your question. For me the prices were reasonable as I have seen the regular phase 10 for 9.99.

No! These boxes are very flimsy! I would never purchase again. The only reason I kept them is because I switched what I use them for: pillows, throws, etc. Only things that are very lightweight. They are made of very thin cloth over pieces of thin cardboard. Spend more for something better!
