Forvencer A4 Spiral Notebook, Green

Thanks to this supplier's product. The only good quality decently priced numbered and spiral available notebook (generally you don't get spiral with numbered pages).

I purchased this to use as a journal to use with my fountain pens (I am a fountain pen geek). This paper is WAY too thirsty for fountain pens. Medium pens look like magic marker on this paper and fine nibs look like sloppy medium nibs. Tons of feathering, bleed-through, and your writing looks terrible. It just SUCKS ink out of the pen - it's crazy to watch, actually. I tested the paper with a Pilot G-2 07mm gel pen and it writes just fine. So gel or ballpoint inks are probably fine. Water based inks, forget it. Regarding the build of the notebook it is really nice. The front and back covers are very thick and protective. I have the maroon color. The sheen of the covers do pick up "fingerprints" really easy, which appears as greasy looking smears on the cover. The elastic band to hold the cover closed is pretty weak, I'm considering cutting mine off as I think it might be more of a distraction than it is worth. The paper (other than being crazy absorbent) is a nice thickness, and the lines on the pages extend nicely to the edges of the pages with minimal margins on top and bottom, maximizing writing area. The pages have a nice feel, almost coated feeling, which is obviously NOT the case given the absorbency. Overall, this is a very nice notebook for keeping permanent notes, journaling, etc., at a decent price. (Can you believe we are at a place where $15 is a "decent" price for 150 sheets of paper?) If used with a fountain pen only, I would give this 2 stars. With a gel or ballpoint pen, or any pen that doesn't use water based ink, it is closer to a 5 star. I compromised with a 4.

I searched for this kind of notebook for product research, and I'm upset to say that this is everything I was planning to create to sell and THEN some. I love this notebook so much I bought two. • Wear and Tear page in the beginning (Or a title page if you're so inclined). • Table of Contents pages (That do NOT cut into the total number of pages as the advertised 300 page limit). • Loose Paper sleeve pocket in the rear to keep loose sheets of information along for the ride of wherever your notebook goes. • Complimentary stickynotes located in this sleeve so that you can have tabs hanging out of the edge of your notebook. • No useless whitespace at the top. • Pages are Numbered in the bottom far corner and have a spot for the date on the top far corner. • High Quality pages for high-ink pens, highlighters, and of course pencils without bleedthrough. • Elastic strap for binding everything together, making it easy to throw into a backpack and not worry about carrying it around. • Simple, gorgeous, wonderful, high-quality, *everything* I've ever needed in a product in my life.

Great quality! I bought this in 2 colors. Paper quality is great and I'm using this daily,.

I will buy this again over and over. Pages are thick (no transfer) and the numbers pages plus table of contents made this very manageable for grad school. Can't recommend enough.
