Overview
Hawksbill A4 White Card 160Gsm-50 Pack A4 White is one of 50 office paper products on our shelf, compared on what buyers rated it, how many of them there were, and what it costs today. Here is how the maker describes it: This bright white 50 pack of card from Hawksbill Paper is 160 grams per square metre (GSM) in weight and is thick and durable due to its strength as a thin card. 160 GSM is a high-quality thickness for card, ideal for printing brochures, flyers, leaflets, invitations or certificates. It is compatible with inkjet, laser and industrial printers. That is the maker talking, not us, so read it as a claim rather than a finding. It holds 4.5 out of 5 on Amazon from 2,720 ratings. Where that leaves it next to the rest of the shelf is set out below.
Across the 50 rated office paper products we track, the middle of the pack sits at 4.6 out of 5. This one scores 4.5. Bottom quarter of the shelf. Not a red flag by itself, but similar money buys a better-rated option here, so the case for this one has to come from somewhere else.
2,720 people rated it, where the shelf median is 2,702. That's enough for the score to mean something without being the last word on it.
On money, this sits in the bottom third of a shelf running from £1.50 to £37.00, with the midpoint around £6.99. Buying at the cheap end is fine as long as the rating stands up. Here it does not quite, so check what has been cut before assuming the saving is free.
