So far, so good!
I admittedly haven't looked through all the cards yet (mainly just the ones relevant to my current clinical rotation for nursing school), but the ones I've seen have been well-presented, clear, and easy-to-read. The size is perfect for fitting behind a badge (or putting them on a ring in my pocket), and the cards feel sturdy and water-repellant while still being thin and flexible. One of my favorite features about them (in comparison to other companies' cards I'd considered) is that the different categories are marked with appropriate icons in addition to being color-coded, whereas most/all of the other card sets I was looking into lack the icons. Color-coding is nice if you want to memorize which color matches which category or read through each headline to figure out what section you're in, but the icons make it easy to tell what category of information the card has at a glance (i.e. a pill icon for Pharmacology, a pair of lungs for Respiratory, etc.).One thing prospective buyers might want to know is that there are no blank sides. This is probably obvious to you (you're not paying for blank space, after all), but a side effect of that is that the last "page" of one category and the first "page" of the next category may be on the same card, thereby making rearrangement of the sections/cards in a different order tricky for those of us who like to customize things like that. Another (very minor) thing to be aware of is that, while the cards are bend-resistant, water-resistant/proof, and sturdy, they are not scratch-proof. That's not to say that they scratch easily, but if you're like me and are thinking of putting them on a spiral ring, be aware that you may end up seeing scratch marks from the ring.A couple of suggestions I have to improve this product are:1. Have different options available for hole placement. I personally like the holes on the bottom of the cards, since I use a retractable badge clip and having the holes on the lower edge means that the "leash" doesn't have to cross the cards when I'm looking at them. I've seen another company offer this orientation as an alternative and also a variation where the card is oriented vertically rather than horizontally, but that company didn't offer as many cards per set (or per cost) as this product has, so I went with this one.2. Currently, the information on the cards is presented with the hole-side as up for both sides of each card. I'd prefer it if the back and front sides of the card had opposite orientations (i.e. front is printed hole-up & back is hole-down) so that I can read two cards at once when the cards are on a clip/ring rather than constantly turning the set around each time I want to see the next card.Overall, I'm quite happy with this product!

My nursing student was happy with this gift
The only complaint was that she didnt have a lanyard clip that fit the holes in the cards so she could wear them. Said was just what she needed.

Not bad not great
Not bad for the price and helpful. Wish they were laminated material but it is what it is. I am happy that amazon replaced my first package quickly and easily and packed the item much better (my first order was delivered in an opened flimsy brown envelope with the item missing). Thank you amazon for replacing it with no hassle

Not for those over 40 with old eyes
I can't fault the product or the manufacturer, because they do give the size of the cards. I just never considered the size of the lettering would be so small. Luckily, my 19 year old daughter is in nursing school, so she may be able to use them.
