American Greetings Reversible Wrapping Paper, Red and Black Plaid (1 Jumbo Roll, 175 sq. ft.)

I absolutely love this wrapping paper. I got it for Christmas, but this print totally works year round. It is heavy gauge so that makes it avoid tearing. It is two sided so many creative ideas can be explored as you wrap boxes with it.

I think this is so stinking’ cute! I’ll be honest, I’m not the sort of girl who would ever put plaid and polka dots together, and I’m not sure if I’ll ever get accustomed to it, but even so, I just HAD to buy it because it’s so cute! I may or may not ever really use them in combination with each other (though I’ll try to work up to that), but the plaid is perfect for Christmas and the polka dots are great for birthdays or just about anything else. But I can also see the plaid being useful outside of Christmas, too... very versatile!The only downside is that there is a narrow strip of white on one end, as if the design didn’t get printed all the way to the edge of the paper.Amazon suggests a mention of sturdiness and thickness, and the best I can say is that it is as expected. The thickness and sturdiness feel like typical wrapping paper, but if anything, it’s on the nicer end of typical wrapping paper. I’ve used stuff that’s thinner and tears more easily, and I’ve also had thicker wrapping paper (like foil hologram ones), and I feel like this is a really good balance to be easy to use without tearing too easily and being really frustrating to use.

I used this wrapping paper to wrap all of our Christmas gifts this year and I got several comments on how nice the wrapping was and how impressed they were it was double sided. The paper was easy to use, fold and cut and there was plenty for all of our gifts.

This wrapping paper saved Christmas! Super cute patterns, and easy to cut. Rips great! Thin enough that tape sticks well, creases nicely. I love black wrapping paper, but the polka dots added that same classiness, while keeping it festive and fun. Can't believe how good the gift pile looked with both patterns mixed together!I would buy some next year, but the roll was huge! I used certainly less than half, probably less than 1/4 of the roll. It's a full size roll. I'll have enough for next year, but I may take my gramma's advice and stock up in case it's unavailable in the future, I'll have years worth on hand. I liked this paper that much.

Never once did, I think I would be blown away by wrapping paper or feel the need over a year later to write a review on it but this wrapping paper is amazing. I made it through two full Christmases of wrapping with only using one roll. I even used it in between for birthdays on the polkadot side. I would say I wrapped close to 100 things truly insane and never ripped. It’s nice and thick. Highly recommend

With a Scotch plaid on one side and a dot pattern on the other, this sturdy paper can get you through any events and if needed, probably wrap a new car. It's lasted a couple Christmases and many birthdays and there's more yet. Well printed, easy to use with either dots or plaid lines making it easy to cut it accurately.

This is gift wrapping paper and I thought, “what’s there to review? It’s paper, decorative, and it covers a present.”Well, there’s more to it than just that, I’ve discovered.• paper is a touch too thin and flimsy.While I appreciate them saving the planet and making it from less material, it would be great if I didn’t have to handle it like rice paper. While wrapping, you have to be gentle or it will tear, puncture or rip.• unless you’re trying to cut it…If you’re actually trying to cut it, amazingly enough, it resisted a box cutter with a fresh blade - didn’t cut all the way through! I thought at first it was my technique, but try as I may, getting a clean cut all the way across the paper was nearly impossible.I’m giving it four starts because:1) it did the job.2) it rips really easily, which was great for the recipient to tear into their gift.3) it looks very pretty.I dropped one star because it’s the strongest weak paper or the weakest strong paper I’ve ever seen.

I bought this roll early August 2020 to wrap my sister's birthday presents. It's now a little over a year later and I'm still using this roll to wrap this year's birthday presents with some left over to wrap Christmas presents later on. It's been through Christmas 2020, Mother's Day, and multiple birthdays. I've even lent it to my mom. This roll is a champ and the value cannot be beat.I won't say it's the greatest quality, but it's a good, standard quality. I've never had problems with it ripping. I suck at wrapping presents and just wrapped a giant box with zero tears after looking it up on Youtube. There are some slight printing imperfections along the edges, but I've never had trouble with it showing as it's usually folded over or covered anyway.If you're like me and hate spending $20+ on something that is meant to be torn up and thrown away, and only getting enough paper to get through 1 or 2 birthdays, just buy this one. This has become my go-to now as paying for one roll a year is well worth it to me.
