Recently, origami has become quite the obsession with me, so I purchased 3 packs of origami paper online because I was getting tired of folding hard and thick A4 paper.
PAPER REVIEW : 10x10cm
Overall, I’m quite happy with the 10x10 cm paper. It’s thin enough to make the folding more enjoyable than normal paper and holds creases well.
The only issue I can find about this paper is that it’s a bit too small to fold more complicated creations, but that’s what the larger paper is for.
PAPER REVIEW : 20x20cm
The 20x20cm paper is large enough for intermediate models. I would say that the quality of this paper is moderate; it holds folds well and is thin enough but tears more easily than the 10x10cm one.
For some reason, some colours are actually easier to tear than others. Yellow and green are of a quality similar to the 10x10, but red and blue tear incredibly easily. One assumption of mine is that this is because of the way the paper is coloured.

PAPER REVIEW : 25x25cm
Overall, this paper is the most fragile of the three. But still, I find that the size comes in incredibly useful to fold advanced models. The fragility of the paper also depends on the colour like the 20x20.
A closeup of the blue 25x25 shows that it is much hairier than the other 2. Does that make it more fragile? I have no idea.
SUMMARY :
Overall, I’m happy with this new load of origami paper and will definitely enjoy using it to fold models. That is, until the models get so complicated until I need bigger paper than this!
