Pros & Cons
Pros
Three metal teeth on each side to hold the sandpaper. Installing the paper could be made a bit easier by making the top part more flexible. And the sand paper slides in and stays put just as well as the 3m block.
Cons
It needs clasps to hold paper down. The paper is thinner than parchment paper, no durability at all, easily tears.
The sand comes off almost immediately upon sanding. Mine had two imperfections (small bumps) on the bottom, so the sanding surface is not flat.
The orange 3m block we have is too rounded at the edges, after many hours of use, to suit my purposes. Shame on them for sacrificing design and quality in the never ending pursuit of the bottom line.
Highlights
Quality
It works well in my hand and is pretty durable.
Easy to hold, easy to load, sturdy; this is a great tool for hand sanding flat surfaces.
It's made out of serious-quality rubber which has the downside of smelling like burning tires.
Nails on each end covered by a rubber flap.
Price
I was able to snag it when the price dipped.
Shipping
It was more than 60% less, was delivered in 2 days and works great.
Packaging/appearance
I bought this to wrap white non scratch scrubbing pads around to clean algae off of the inside of my glass fish aquarium.
Competitiveness
There is another colored one - same brand - that may be better if you have difficulties with this one.

The hard plastic ones that are popular today are not nearly as good nor do the modern ones have the same feel in the hand

Works once you get the paper mounted correctly

If the rubber on the paper mounting were a little softer making it easier to stretch the paper correctly it would rate higher
