Winsor & Newton Professional Standard Linen Canvas Cartons

I have bought many of these cartons over the years as they are exceptional good value, if painting in standard sizes. Recently W&N have changed the branding and labelling of these and come up with some fancy plastic things to replace the wooden wedges. Not convinced of the benefits of those to be honest. The canvas is usually well stretched (taut) anyway so I think that many of these little devices will be thrown away at greater cost to the environment. With my latest purchase I'm disappointed with the linen itself, the tooth is definitely not as fine as it used to be, and on the smaller sizes that is quite a drawback as far as I'm concerned. Therefore I'm giving a three star rating whereas before the range was 'improved' it was a four/five.
