The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- You're getting 12 pads at once, so this is really meant for people or organizations that use legal pads consistently rather than casual users.
- The sheets perforate cleanly for easy removal, which beats having to tear roughly along the edge.
- The canary yellow color is standard for legal pads and helps them stand out on a desk, though it's not for anyone who prefers white paper.
