AHGXGBullet Dotted Journal 2 Pack - B5 Large Journal Dot Grid Notebook (7.6'' X 10'') with Thick 120gsm Dot Paper, Soft Leather Cover, Total 384 Pages, Inner Pocket - BlackGreen

excellent quality for value and exactly the sort of journal I was looking for: soft bound (and with a bendy yet durable cover), dot grid pages that are thick enough that bleed through has not been a problem. It has both an elastic strap to hold the journal closed, and a loop for a pencil or pen, which was a nice bonus. Also, added bonus points for numbered pages. Very functional while note taking as the book lays pretty flat on a desk. The B5 dimensions are also nice as it is small enough to be portable but the pages are large enough that you can get a decent amount of content on each page. Love the green color in particular.

I was hesitant about these but they are so nice!The cover feels like buttery soft leather and the paper is smooth and thick. Very little ghosting and only sharpies bleed through. (I don’t have a fountain pen to test though). Pencil erases cleanly and easily.The grid is not too dark so is not distracting.I already had the stencils from a stencil set I purchased earlier. But they’re nice stencils.2 ribbon bookmarks, a back pocket, and an elastic band make this excellent for journaling.The only things I would add are a few dedicated index pages and a small section of perforated pages.But, so far I absolutely love these journals and I will absolutely buy more. They feel so nice in my hands!

These are GREAT for the price. My only minor quibble is that the combination of the cover elastic and the bubble mailer meant that my corners were a bit dented upon arrival. It wasn't bad and certainly not a dealbreaker at this price point, but they'd benefit from a sheet of cardboard put between the cover and the paper.Mine had free journal stencils tucked into the back pocket, which was a nice and thoughtful surprise.I am a minimalist bujo person. I mostly use my books for making two-page calendar spreads and a LOT of daily todo lists. I've tried a lot of notebooks - Moleskine (paper too thin), Leuchterm (thin paper, hard cover doesn't lie flat), Midori/TN (so narrow!), Nuuna (Amazing but $$$). I had been looking at Hobonichi for this year but I'm a student and trying to save money. These books really impressed me, especially for the cost.The soft covers on these feel sturdy enough and the pages are sewn in. The book lies flat when opened - you don't need to hold it down to write in it. There are two bookmark ribbons in matching colors and a sturdy pocket in the back cover.The paper seems good for my purposes. I usually use uniball, gelly roll, and brush pens. It feels smooth.The dot grid is 5mm. I actually prefer a slightly smaller grid but I think I'm in the minority there. Most places do 5mm so this is perfectly standard and a good size for most handwriting.You absolutely cannot beat the price. And I like that it's split in two volumes because this makes it lighter to carry and also gives me a fresh start in a few months when I fill the first one.A two-page calendar comes up with about nine lines per box - plenty of space to plan. And I have room on each page to make two good size columns for list keeping.All in all, these are amazing and I will probably buy more.

I bought these bullet journals to document my medical journey + chemotherapy regimen and they’ve been a tremendous help. The paper is thick so no bleed through with multiple inky pens. I scribble in squares and no bleed through! Paper is smooth and I love the covers. I went with this because I like moleskin but the price point is too much for me to justify with how much I write. These are a great bang for your buck. Ordering two more but with lined paper instead I think for everyday journaling.The only complaint is how they’re shipped. Some pages came slightly bent in the corner because they’re shipped in a bag and I’m sure they get bumped through transport. Not worth docking a star for because the journals are still usable. Just something to be mindful of. Hoping the next two have no issues! Love the green!

The perfect bullet journal. I wanted a soft cover with pages that don't bleed. I've tried probably a dozen brands and this is by far the best.

Nice quality! The tag doesn’t match the listing so I can’t confirm it’s 120gsm, but it certainly is thicker than the Exceed Walmart notebook I previously used that claimed to be 100gsm. The pages are numbered which I didn’t expect, but do like.The size is nice, slightly smaller than an average sheet of paper, and a helpful pocket in the back to store things. I especially like the elastic pen holder.Does NOT come with stencils as the listing promised, so knocked it down a star. Otherwise a great option.When you order, choose “hide what’s inside” so it will ship in Amazon packaging rather than manufacturer packaging to prevent the damage other reviews describe!

Ink doesn’t bleed through the paper. I can see the dots of the grid paper, but the dots are not too bold. The open pages lie flat. I enjoy a soft cover journal, but it is difficult to find a soft cover and non-bleed paper combined in the same product. This journal checks all the boxes. I have ordered this journal several times.

Built to last, thick pages, great sturdy envelope on back cover to hold your loose stuff PLUS it comes with bullet journal stencils! This was almost too nice to write in - I put off starting my bujo to-do list because this journal is so much nicer than my usual pads for lists. Also has two thin ribbon page markers and the elastic to hold it all together - though it's hardly needed. Perfect size (I got the B5 larger size, but there's also an A5 smaller version). The only think I wish were different is that it comes in 2 cover colors - I'd just like black. But the blue is also nice. I did a lot of research to find an afordable dot notebook - and it was worth it! I can't find fault with this product. It's perfect!
