This is the first time I tried this brand; they are pretty good quality for the price. The grain is very even, and the texture feels nice. The slight shine on the paper a nice touch but not too glossy that it would reflect light. The color is quite nice, and the ink dry instantly for me. You can tell which side is the right side to print on, based on the grainy texture. I have not tested the waterproof claim but maybe I will one of these days to see how well it holds up. So far the paper is great, no creasing on arrival or anything like that, so packaging was also good. I will definitely buy it again.

If you don't want to read this entire review, I would say that for color accuracy, texture, thickness, price, and drying time, this paper is excellent.I am using this paper on an Epson Expression Photo XP-8600 and it's OEM Claria dye-based inks. My general paper is Epson Ultra Premium Photo Paper Luster, followed by Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl for larger 8x10 and 8.5x11 prints. But Epson doesn't make that paper in 5x7, and the Ilfor can be hard to come by in 5x7. So I decided to try this Koala paper given it's cheap price.I tend to be pretty picky, and print via Photoshop, Photoshop manages color, with an ICC profile specifically for the printer and paper combination. My first concern was not being able to locate ann ICC profile for this paper. So, I just tested it using the same profile as the Epson UPPPL paper (sometimes, profile differences are miniscule). To my surprise, the very first print came out pretty well, fairly bright and with a small color tint.Now, this slight color tint was noticed by some family memebers I asked, but one sided with me on a slight green. But here's the run: the tint wasn't really noticably under 2 of the 3 light sources I used (cloudy natural light, LED balanced bulbs, incandescent bulb). My experience with the Epson and Ilford papers is also a slight tint, just a little less so than this paper. I find that most people are impressed and happy with the photo rather than criticizing color accuracy as I might be.The thickness and texture of the paper leave a positive feel, like a developed film print. Not the thickest paper, but still a professional feel. The shine/gloss is well controlled, suitable for without or under a glass cover. I ran some water under a print and it had no impact at all. Printed out some portraits and landscapes and I have no complaints.I'm probably going to buy a few more packs, maybe even letter size if I can find it. Well worth it in my opinion.

I have been using Koala papers for a year now and I can tell you that I couldn't be happier with the quality of the paper. I have and Epson ET-8550 and print many 13 x 19 prints as well as various other sizes, and they look great! As for the people complaining about the ink being blurred, not drying, and smearing... NEWS FLASH! YOU'RE PRINTING ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE PAPER! Sorry, didn't mean to yell, but I too have mistakenly loaded the paper incorrectly, especially their Matte finish and the results are not good, stop and turn the paper over for the next print. I think the satin finish is pretty easy to tell which side is the correct side. Thank you, Koala, for great photo paper. No, I did not get paid or receive any kind of compensation for this review.
Awesome sauce

I do love the sheen and sturdiness of the paper. Unfortunately the yellow hues get mellowed down a little, making the prints look cooler. The packaging was also damaged, creating a small crease at the corner of each sheet.

Fantastic photo paper. I felt like I was "taking a risk" on this, but I've printed out 8 images so far and the quality is fantastic. I am very pleased with the results.Nice and thick stock, but still moves perfectly through my (Epson Ecotank) printer without curling and is dry immediately.(Just remember to put it in the correct orientation for your printer or you'll likely have problems!)

Best pricing available on-line or in big box office supply stores like those with the word 'Office" in its name. Highly recommend it. Never jams in printer.

Purchased the photo paper to try on my new Epson ink tank printer. I was surprised at the thickness and quality of the paper. The photo printed off very well. The finished product looked great to me and my wife. I will purchase again and in other size paper.

I have an Epson 8500 printer, and got these on a whim to see the quality. I've previously been using a pack of 4x6 epson ultra premium glossy and I love the quality of this paper. I will likely try their glossy when I'm through the Epson pack.

Paper is a decent thickness and good value for the money. The satin finish is great. The Paper printed out great photos from the Canon Pro-300.
