AHGXG Dotted Journal, 320 Pages, A5 (5.75'' × 8.38'')

I really love this book. The grid dots are nice and light -- they don't add unnecessary noise to the overall visual. I'd worried about that. I LOVE the subtle numbered pages, and I am really happy to have four lined content pages (2 sheets, front/back of each). The paper is great -- thin, but not so thin you can't use a fountain pen with it. The paper has a nice hand to it -- reminds me of Moleskin paper a tiny bit. Still not quite that good but still really nice. Just like most paper, Sharpie markers bleed through to the back. Sharpie colored *pens" do not bleed. Colored pencils actually did pretty well, but there really isn't enough tooth to be doing a lot of layering. My mechanical pencil didn't love the hard slick surface, but a regular 2B did great. Watercolor didn't bleed through, but the paper got predictably wrinkled after getting so wet. This will never be a good dedicated watercolor book, but will hold its own for adding some watercolor bits to a sketch. Tombow pens did okay with it as well. I mostly work in acrylics and collage. There will be a tendency to wrinkle if you don't take some care with first layers. Still and all, this book will be perfect to do my abstracty collages alongside my daily journaling stuff. There's a nice pocket in the back to hold my collage bits.

I've been buying these for my bullet journaling for several years and they're good value: sturdy, good quality paper, accurate markings, and a nice range of cover colors. I don't use the stencils included, but others might enjoy them. The back pocket is especially handy for notes or appointment cards.

I love this notebook so much. The cover is a beautiful color, and feels quite sturdy. It opens great, so the pages lie completely flat. The dot grid is light enough that it's not obnoxious/distracting. I really like how it has page numbers & a table of contents at the front! My pens do bleed a bit (not getting color onto the page underneath, but you can see through the pages a bit), but tbh I've never found a journal that doesn't do that lol, so I'm fine with it. I also just really love the size of this notebook, since most dot grid journals don't have enough pages for a full year bullet journal, but this one is perfect for me. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase, and will likely get another one of these next year!

I like the way the book feels in my hands. It is substantial and has a lot of pages. (315!) There is a table of contents feature as well as a sturdy pocket in the back. Mine came with two fun little stencils! I use my book to doodle using alcohol ink markers. These markers do bleed through the paper, so to prevent damaging other pages I use a piece of watercolor paper cut to the size of the book as a shield. I have taken this little notebook with me many places and while it has sustained some cover damage, it still looks great and is in great shape. For the price, this is an excellent value. The rubber band closure helps me tuck extra papers inside of it without using them, and sometimes I use it as an additional third bookmark. There is a stretchy pen holder loop that will accommodate many different sized pen types. The table of contents is so wonderful, I can write down important page numbers to find easily later! I love the green cover

Great journal - nice hard cover, thick inside cover page, 3 content pages, smooth paper, numbered pages, and I love that the dots are light. I prefer lightly dotted journals like the leuchtturm1917. And it’s a good price! (Got mine on a deal for $9.99) However, I love writing with fountain pens and these journals are not fountain pen friendly. There is a lot of shadowing and bleed through (especially after I refill my fountain pen). I really wanted to love this journal, but it’s not enjoyable to write with fountain pens. Some of my markers also show shadowing and bleeds through. It’s a great journal, just not for me.

This is a nice journal if your primary goal is writing. It's paper is thick enough for a ball point pen, numbered, and has 320 pages. There is a reasonable lengthed table of contents in the beginning. There are two satin bookmark ribbons that are very secure. The stencils are very usable. The pen holder and elastic strap are holding up nicely after 3 months of use. A couple of warnings for artistic journalers. The paper is not thick enough to prevent marker or felt pen bleed through. If you intend to use mildliners or other water based markers, it will bleed. It's best to use 0.05 multiliners and color pencils to prevent bleed through. Micron and copic has a few colors in this size, just be careful not to push too hard as the nibs are fragile. I have also been able to use tape runner to add pictures and tickets over the bleed through. My washi tape works beautifully in the journal.

I open, write inside, and flip through this notebook multiple times a day. The threading on the pages is reliable, and the paper is strong. Currently on page 274 of 314 and every single page is intact and still secured to the binding. The paper stays flat when opened. The dotted grid keeps my writing and drawing neat. It takes to post-it notes and bookmarks really well, with little bulging of the hardcover. It’s also a great size; it feels good in my hands in terms of shape and weight. The only flaw is that when I pulled to hard on one of the bookmark strings, it almost came out. It’s still attached but the piece of cloth that is supposed to keep the string glued down is now peaking out the top of the spine—a minor cosmetic issue. Lastly, some of my fountain pens will bleed through but not my ballpoints. This may just be the ink or nibs I’m using to write. Highlighters will bleed if I overdo it. All said, I highly recommend this if you want a sketchbook or free-form journal that is archival-level quality.

First off the one thing that I always want to know about buying a journal is "Does it have a contents page?" It doesn't say in the description, but yes it does. About 4 pages so you can fill it in. The pages are pre numbered so I liked that as it saved me time having to number them myself. Page thickness is really good and paper quality matches that. You can use a felt marker and it won't bleed through. The cover is a nice leather feel, but you can put stickers on it and it won't fall off. I really liked the color, it was Fun new fresh take on the boring old black ones. I waited for it to go on sale for less than $10 bc I can't bring myself to pay more than that for trees. Value for the money was more than worth it. It's durable and the outside doesn't scratch easy. It's been thrown around here and there and still maintained its integrity. Very well built I'd say. I'm def going to purchase different colors. I liked that they offered a variety of off colors like yellow and the forest green. I'd def recommend one to anyone.

Awesome xmas present & receiver was over the moon

Excelente produto!

Muy bonita la calidad de encuadernado. Este año me di el lujo porque será mi compañero todo el año y prefiero disfrutar mi experiencia de usuario.

This Jouranl is thick and comes with two stencils. Paper Quality is amazing and can handle different types of Pens.

I love this notebook. It has 320 pages all numbered plus content pages in the start to keep track of notes. Highly recommend for making notes. Came with two basic stencils as gift. I am going to buy more. I bought dark green color which is beautiful I just wish other colors were also affordable. Also there is ghosting of some markers on the other side of the page.
