Do these store well? I do a good volume of shredding, but only about twice a year. Will these sheets still be good in several years?

I think so. I have mine stored on a bookshelf in my office and have owned the pack for two years. I shred a little bit once a week but I only lubricate when I change the shredding bag and that's about every other month.

I don't know about that. I just bought the shredding sheets this year. I would think so since the sheets themselves are individually packed. I hope this helps.

I'm sorry, I can't answer that question - I haven't had mine much more than 6 months... they are still fine if that is any help...

These lubricating sheets are well sealed and should last a long, long time. Geo.

It takes me over a year to use my sheets in the shredder. They retain their quality and my shredder works like day one!

The sheets are individually sealed, and used sealed; Inserted into shredder following directions. I keep them in bottom drawer of my filling cabinet, out of direct heat and/or light. They seem to hold up very well over time as the lubricant is within the sealed sheet. I try to avoid prolonged continuous use, and will lubricate if shredder has been unused for a month or so, or have start to have paper jam. My shredder doesn't like more than 8 sheets of paper at a time!

They don't sag, but they also don't have pleated bottoms, so, the more you stuff the more the papers "ride up the sides"I don't usually have more than 30-40 sheets in each one, because when you overstuff it makes the papers ride up making the drawer unsightly and sometimes damaging or wrinkling the papers if they are overstuffed. If you want to add a lot to your files, buy the pleated bottom. These DO NOT SAG.

They are pretty durable -- I've had them for four seasons, used them for two -- they are still solid. I take care of them -- I wash and dry them thoroughly before storing over the winter.

They last a long time, I have some from a year ago. Of course one or two of them may not last, but over all they are good.

They will absolutely work as described, even if your if your mattress and mattress pad are as thick as they come, *if you follow direction. *(Although I'm just a consumer, I had to throw that little disclaimer in there because if you DON'T follow directions, you could damage or tear the sheet.) For what it's worth, I'm still using the original drawstring sheet I purchased in 2009, along with 2 others I purchased in 2012 for backup and laundry day. All of them are still in great condition.

Mine are fairly new (a few months old), and they're still perfect. With decent care, I figure they'd probably last a year or more with daily use. But I don't really know--this is my first set.

They seem to last a long time, I bought the 4-pack two months ago and I'm still using the first one. I really don't use them a lot, tho, only when I open up my pc case.

I have dried them in high heat and no shrinking... It is a quality sheet by far and I have them for over a year and some months so it has been through lots of washing & drying in the machine.

Yes they do....I crop a few of mine sometimes, and the albums stay together pretty well. Can't find these sheets anywhere else and I use them all the time.

Not really sure but I think they are good as long as the cover strip is intact. After that, the manufacturer says to replace after 2 months. Since they are sold in multi packs, they should be good for a while. Call manufacturer for definite answer.

As long as you store it properly without folding or crushing, I think they will last for years. Very similar to the ones I grew up with and lasted 3 to 5 years with mild use.

I read somewhere that these are suppose to last for up to a year. Just make sure you keep them stored somewhere cool.

I've had mine for close to a year and no signs of wear or tear yet. I used them strictly for storing and freezing breast milk. They are pretty sturdy so I would imagine they would last a pretty long time as long as they are used properly.

We've had no problem with them holding up, but we are gentle users. We've slept on them in the back of an SUV, and as overflow sleeping in the house. We've always put fitted sheets over them. Love 'em!

I can't say, as I go through them within a few months each time. That said, I'd speculate a long time. They seem to be freeze dried and are vacuum packed.

I guess it depends on how rough you are with them. I cut one sheet into 2 pieces to fit a drinks container, and I've been alternating them every day for more than a year with no problem at all. Hope this helps.

Nate, I've owned this machine about 9 months now. I've put several hundred sheets through it. Some I've put straight in, in little packs, the machine ate them up. Others, I've stacked and laid them in, and closed the lit, it ate them as well. I read all the reviews too, prior to buying. I compared more $ costs to bigger and better machines, but who wants to pay $$$ big dollars just to shred junk you don't want, or need? My idea is this machine for the money it cost, does a better than average job, and doesn't jam. I think I've seen my wife feed it so much paper, hand fed, group after group for long enough to cause the machine to jam once. Once! When it did that, it backed itself up, and cleared the jam. I had her wait a little while to let it cool down. Gotta remember it's not a professional machine, but a darn good home owner's machine that does the job. There's always somebody somewhere that'll review that it's a terrible machine. Gotta expect that. But more, many more, said it was very good. Including my review. Good luck. rw
