Strathmore Paper & Paper Crafts Editorial Review
The Strathmore 560-1 500 Series Charcoal Pad has elicited a varied response from customers, reflecting a blend of appreciation for its quality alongside notable concerns. Many users commend the deep tooth of the paper, which effectively holds charcoal and facilitates smooth application—making it a favorite for artists looking for reliable material for their charcoal drawings. However, some customers found challenges particularly related to the paper's lightening capabilities, noting that while it grips the charcoal well, it can be difficult to lighten areas without leaving marks. Despite the positive reception of the paper quality, several users expressed disappointment regarding structural features. The fact that the pad is spiral bound without perforated edges has led some artists to feel frustrated, as they are required to manually cut out pages for a clean finish. Additionally, the thinness of the paper has raised concerns about its durability, with complaints that it wrinkles easily and dents when removed from the spiral binding. Some reviewers questioned whether this product was indeed worthy of its premium pricing, given these structural Considerations. The description of the paper as "natural white" has also been perceived as misleading, as many users noted it appears cream in color instead. In summary, the Strathmore 560-1 500 Series Charcoal Pad is celebrated for its quality in charcoal work, yet customers present valid points regarding its practical usability and Construction flaws. **
