I gave them a try a number of years ago and went back to using 2x2's for my raw coins. I had albums for denominations 1 cent through 50 cents.
My observations:
First off, nice collection you have going there Canada97.
As you said, the slides scratch easily and after a while, the scratches become quite distracting. In my opinion the covers are not professional in their appearance, as opposed to the old Dansco albums (though Dansco has the same easily-scratched slides). I do like the iconic Canadian scenes on the covers though.
Although it's not the case for the large cent album, the holes for 25 cents were too big and the coins rotated in their holes every time the album was handled.
On the plus side, they are convenient.
