Pros & Cons
Pros
Per gram of material removed, 3m paper is about half the price of the next leading paper and multiple times cheaper than the cheapest. M revolutionizes a product that hasn't changed much since it was introduced.
This is hands down the best sandpaper disc i have ever used. No holes to line up with the sander. Better, more even finish, faster sanding, and long-lasting.
The dust extraction is excellent, second to none.
Cons
There is no doubt the abrasive lasts a long time, but the mesh backing of the disc is so open, there is insufficient material for the hooks of the sanding pad to connect with.
At the end of sanding the disc has no grit and feels like a tissue. They fly off your sander within a minute of use. One of the most annoying things is that it does not stick to my orbital sander's foot.
They are completely worthless. Will send these back, very disappointed.

This sandpaper takes sanding time and speeds it up by at least 24% deduction in total time spent sanding.
Price
The old saying of you get what you pay for is really at play here.
Packaging/appearance
I'll change my star rating if the new box they are supposed to send me has grit on all the disc's.
Competitiveness
If you want your projects to be smoother than your favorite pick-up lines, cubitron is the way to go.
Was able to get through flattening both sides of a 2ft x 5 ft panel glue up with just one disc and when i touched it the thing ... Read More
Once you use these discs, you'll not want to go back to diablo sandnets.
Yes, they cost around 2 times more than the name brand disks that i've been using (mostly norton and diablo), but they last 3-4... Read More

However be mindful of how they label the grits with a “” at the end

I’ve noticed when finishing with 220 the surface is incredibly smooth smoother than all other 220s i’ve tried but causes wood to absorb less stain eventually reaching a plateau of how dark the stained wood can get

Would not be a concern if painting but might want to try finishing with 180 instead if you’re used to 220 with other ceramic sandpaper

Otherwise it’s worth the hype i’d say 👍
