They're alright
Size: 100 Pack
Color: Gold
They're cute, but they are not as sharp as regular push pins. It's a bit harder to get them into the cork board, but they still work. Also there were around 5 pins that hadn't been well-coated with the gold paint, so there was black showing through. Not a bad purchase though.

Push pins are fine, but box isn’t sturdy
Size: 100 Pack - Round Top
Color: Baby Blue
The shipping shattered the box, so I don’t have a decent storage box now. The push pins are really cute though.

Poor Quality Control (and Other Issues)
Size: 100 Pack
Color: Rose Gold
First, the good: They arrived on time and intact. They work acceptably on standard “cork-boards” from office supply stores. I loved the copper color, even though it was definitely not “rose gold” as listed and shown in product photos. Then the not-so-good: (1) My photo shows several unseparated pins
and the large “tags” that remained when I separated them myself. Every pack of plastic push pins of this shape has a few items that don’t get properly separated during manufacturing. But from my sample, I estimate that at least 25% of these pins were still attached to other pins. Worse, the pins do not separate with clean edges—separation leaves large, sharp “tags” on each pin that have to be twisted off…and they don’t do it cleanly. Because I don’t want to impale myself when I grab something off a bulletin board, I had to use a metal file to make these “tags” even somewhat smooth. My patience with that lasted for about four pins. Then I came to my senses and just tossed all the conjoined pins I’d encountered to that point. I dislike having to choose between throwing out a not-insignificant portion of a product and spending a not-insignificant amount of time rendering the product safe and usable. 2. Although these pins sank somewhat easily into recent cork-board purchases from office supply stores, they had a harder time penetrating older cork-boards (from the 1980s) that other brands of pins penetrate with relative ease. I don’t think it’s a matter of the sharpness of the point. Rather, it looks to me like the penetration of the Jam Paper pins may be inhibited by the colored metallic coating that extends over the entire pin. In my “testing,” pins with better penetration had no color-coating on the pointy part. 3, This is a minor issue for me, but as another reviewer pointed out, both the color name of these Jam Paper pins (“rose gold”) and the photos included in the product listing are misleading. The “rose gold” Jam Paper pins that I received were actually a beautiful shade of medium-dark copper. I’ve included a photo of two Jam Paper pins with a larger “rose gold” pin from another source to illustrate my point. My large pin is too blue-ish to be a true rose gold, but it comes closer to that descriptor than do the pins from Jam Paper. Fortunately, the exact color of the pins wasn’t terribly important to me, and the copper color is really beautiful. Summary: Although I can accept the lackluster penetration power of these pins, and I can live with the inaccurate color description, the lack of quality control that resulted in numerous conjoined pins is a deal-breaker for me. I don’t have the money to throw away a significant portion of a product, and I haven’t got the time to make defective products usable. It is highly unlikely that I will order a product from Jam Paper again.

I have the round head ones in multiple colors - use them to attach textiles to my walls
Size: 100 Pack - Round Top
Color: Red
I LOVE these Jams tacks for decorating with. I live in earthquake land, and don't want a bunch of heavy frames around my apartment. I use the round head ones in whatever color will blend in - to attach my collection of woven textiles to my wall. Keeps me and my fish tank safe, keeps the textiles from
stretching, and the colors just blend in. These are super sturdy, I can use a hammer to tap one into the wall, I can use my hands or pliers to pull them back out of the wall and then use them again, without the head breaking off or the metal bending. These things are amazing. The colors are true to the photo or description, in my experience. I think now I have the baby blue/turquoise, navy blue, orange and red, so far. To me, it's worth the money to go ahead and buy another color when needed. They just kind of look like beads on the textiles, if you notice them, which fits in with my boho decor anyway. Highly recommend. They're totally reusable, barely leave a pin prick hole in the dry wall or wood.
