Maped Stationery Review
Maped Stationery
Reviewed by David Savage
I recently received some Maped stationery items for office and school use all of which were good quality.
Scissors
I received 3 pairs of scissors, I for office use, I for school use and 1 for young children:
Expert Titanium – 21cm office scissors with 3D ergonomically designed handles with sharp blades that cut paper effortlessly and straight with no tearing. Very comfortable to hold.
Sensoft 3D – 16cm scissors again will sharp blades that cut the paper effortlessly but these have very soft rubbery handles that bend.
KidiKut Security – these are safety scissors for young children age 3+ and do not have the sharp blades like other scissors. They still cut the paper nice and straight but will not cut your fingers and have rounded tips so no sharp points. Great for creative children.
Kidy Ruler – a colour 30cm ruler aimed at children that actually grip onto the paper allowing to draw straight lines much easier. I gave this to my niece to try at school and she loves it. She says it is very easy to use and doesn’t move around. She was also impressed by the 3 smiley stencils at bottom of the ruler.
Metal Box Color Peps – 12 coloured pencils supplied in a nice metal box. With a triangular shape they are much easier to hold and use. The colours are vibrant and are great for your creative children. With the metal box to store them you will always be able to find them (providing you put them away of course) and should stop them getting broken.
And finally there was a funky little pencil sharpener – Clean. Larger than a standard pencil sharpener (but small enough to out in your stationery bag) but this is for a reason, it is a dual pencil sharpener for 2 different thickness pencils but also is enclosed to collect all the shaving which you can then empty into the bin so there is no mess, hence the name Clean. A great idea and available in some great colours.
All these items were good quality, well made and great for home, school or office use, they are very reasonably priced so are great value too.
