They don't stick at all
We require these for out many reports of multiple properties kept in binders so the names can be seen from both sides. Not only do these not stick to the page, but they don't stick to each other. You print the name on the label, fold it over to stick to itself, then stick it to the page. They are constantly falling out and unsticking from themselves as well. I can't tel...

Colored label part doesn't stick very well
Great concept & is exactly what I needed but the colored label parts that you print on then fold over to stick to each other doesn't stay stuck together so the label keeps popping open. I love everything else about it though. The clear/white part that you stick to the page has a decent stick. It's removable when you need it to be but it doesn't fall off.

Handy! Need to adjust margins manually in Word.
This is a product I have wanted to exist for quite a number of years and Avery has come through. I am very pleased with the quality of reinforced tabs and how well they feed through my ecotank printer. The only downside and it is minute is that default margins are slightly off at the top and left of each tab. Of course with a little manipulation through the Labels wi...

Pain to print correctly
I wasted an entire sheet and a half because it didn’t print right. Used the Word document and made the labels and still was a really big pain. Very annoyed but when the were on the right way looked good.

Awesome!!
Great Tabs. They made my filing looks extra professional.
Only down side, they come apart easily. I used a little tape to ensure the stickers stayed in place. I will purchase again.

Very durable and professional looking
Needed a better way of making budget binders look professional but also durable since they are turning the pages constantly. So far these are holding up well and they look very professional. Tried ordering a different style that was not Avery brand and send those back because they labels were so bad and the template wouldn't print correctly and they were very flimsy. ...

Not great
First off the darker colors especially the purple and burgundy make it hard to read the text. Secondly I don't recommend these if you're using an inkjet printer. The words just rub right off with any handling of the tabs. I would not order these again.

Great product but....
Love the idea and the ease of the tabs. However printing them out properly is tough. They either printed on the wrong end of the label or were not centered. I tried different templates on Avery's site tried using Explorer instead of Chrome tried using Word and nothing worked. I adjusted the printer settings too. Did everything I could and nothing really worked. I wa...

I use this all the time. I use them in the capacity of putting the month per sheet. If works great just drop it into your printer off you go.

Books tabs
These tabs are great! They are easy to remove to adjust placement yet they are definitely firmly attached to the page for use. I just used 15 packages on accreditation materials. Those materials were used to the point that the pages were showing wear and tear but the tabs were still exactly where I placed them and looked just as good as the day I put them on.
