MENORAH - Dot Grid A5, Doodle Friendly- Wiro Bound Journal,160 Pages, 90 GSM- (21.0 cm x 13.5 cm), Planner 2021, Journal for Girls- Subtly SHIMMERS in Your Hands

Have been using the same brand for the past two years for bullet journaling.Customisable cover and good paper quality, best option (dotted notebooks) i could find online.Minimal bleeding if you use highlighters, fineliners and ball pens. It does bleed a bit for brush pens and other sketch pens but it was fine for me as i keep my journal simple.Overall great product.

Good book. Easy to use. Good quality.

Quality is good and papers are smooth. Good for writing or doodling with pen or pencil. While I used camlin brush pens on this, the papers are not thick and I wouldn't recommend.

Purchased the green one last year, got the blue one this year. The paper quality is awesome. Also, the spiral lets you keep one page open constantly, which is not possible in other faux leather journals. The spiral also doubles as a pen holder.

The pages are nice and there is minimal blotting. However, if I doulbe layer a marker or a Mildliner it bleeds through a little. Great valur for money. The cover is really pretty, although it is not easy to doodle on it with a pencil or ball point pen. I used a gel pen to draw the cover.

I was excited to try two dot-grid notebooks (in hindsight, perhaps should have ordered one) for fountain pen inks. Expectations were as usual high, given nice ratings. The notebooks are packaged quite nicely.Unfortunately the paper is not the one which can hold these kind of inks.1. Feathering - it’s quite evident from the spread of the two blue sailor inks (Souten & Yama-Dori) & the MB toffee brown (albeit with a fine nib) in the first picture.2. Ghosting - noticeable ghosting. Written content on the other side of the pages is visible.3. Shading - none to be observed, since the ink spreads/feathers before drying4. Build quality - excellent and bound pretty well.5. VFM - depends on the end use. Nightingale notebooks with more pages do exceedingly well and they are cheaper.Alas, it’s the soul that matters and the paper doesn’t live up to mark. I have found JK cedar paper & Nightingale’s notebooks do quite well with these inks. Don’t get me wrong these notebooks might do perfectly for gel based inks or ball points.

The pages are good the size is proper for carrying around. The grids makes it easier to make personalized division or boxes on the pages.

I like the smoothness of the page and it has enough pages in it but the pages are very thin.
