Softcover Journal ~ Lined + Dotted Notebook Paper, Wide 10mm Notebooks for Writing, Appreciation, Miracle Morning, School Supplies, Lists, Travel Diary, Planning Notepad for Women, Men, Kids

Who'd have thought the humble notebook could be improved? Well it has and it's called Paipur. This notebook looks appealing and is extremely practical and ergonomically designed. It's a perfect size for writing, being just slightly smaller than A4. The best thing about this notebook is that it falls open flat without any damage to the pages or spine so you can work with both pages simultaneously (draw diagrams on one side and write on the other if you wish). Here's the really inventive thing about this notebook , it doesn't matter if you don't need to draw because the way the notebook is laid out is clever - you can use both sides for writing if you want even though the left side sheet has very faint dotted squares and the right-hand sheet is lined - the product affords you both the means to draw and write. The cover is flexible and durable being neither soft nor hard but very sturdy. Very pleased with this.

When the notebook arrived, I have to say I was quite excited. The presentation was excellent, and I've kept the cover / box it came in to store the notebook away. I have to say that I did expect a hard-back and so was initially disappointed, but that was more my fault than the notebook. The cover looks excellent, and although the elastic closure did cause the cover to bend / crease slightly it hasn't affected its function. In terms of using the notebook, its a dream; as a Web developer, the ability to take the dotted pages for quick UI layouts or diagrams is a godsend. I haven't found myself needing, or wanting, to tear a page out of the notebook (and due to the fact that I often write notes on the right-hand leaf accompanying a diagram on the left, I've no idea how I would tear out the pages together without affecting the flow of the previous couple of pages) but the perforated pages look like they'll do the job. I enjoy writing in this notebook and although the pages don't lie as flat to the writing surface as I like, the excellent work-flows I've developed as a result of the squared / lined setup more than make up for it.

The paper is great and the book is the perfect size. I like the flexibility of one side being dotted and the other lined but I accidentally ordered wide ruled and I kinda hate wide ruled so I am very unhappy with the notebook but that’s my own fault really. I’ve previously bought a narrow ruled notebook and it was perfect. Was the first time I actually reached the end of a notebook.

really good quality wish the lines were more narrow ruled...

This is an alright notebook. The one thing I really liked was the size as it wasn't as bulky as an A4 so it fit nicely in my handbook. The reason that I bought this notebook though was because it said the pages shouldn't bleed through. What did the pages do? Bleed. I also didn't realise that one page is dot grid and one is lined which immediately put me off as I wanted an all dot grid notebook. The cover is soft note hardback which means its prone to getting dirty and bent which isn't great

I bought the Orange PAIPUR notebook because I buy a ludicrous amount of stationery to keep up with a ludicrous amount of creative projects. My current go-to notebook is a dotted Leuchtturm1917 B5, and in direct comparison to that, the PAIPUR is a little bit wider, a bit thicker and only has one page marker versus the LT's two. The PAIPUR has a pocket at the back and the orange is bright and cheerful, though not glaring, and the red accents are pretty and suit it well. I haven't used it yet, though I've been carrying it around for a while, trying to decide what exactly I'll do with it. What makes it so attractive for me personally is that the paper looks like it'll be able to cope well with fountain pens, but mostly, the lines and dots are FAR APART. I quit Moleskine notebooks for good because the paper was crap and the lines too close together, and I avoid lined notebooks (even Leuchtturm) because I always feel constricted in those tiny lines. I now mostly use dotted notebooks, which means my range of choice is pretty limited at this point. Now, PAIPUR's lines are wide-spaced, so I won't have to skip every other line just to keep my handwriting legible. It really does seem to be designed to give you space to think on the page. I also like the dotted plus lined design - something about it appeals to my left and right brain. Also, how often have I dug for a piece of paper in my bag because I didn't want to rip a page out of my notebook? That's over, too. ALL pages are perforated (versus Leuchtturm, which has a few perforated pages at the very back for that purpose) While I haven't used that feature yet, it does give me comfort that I have a ready source of paper for those important notes for somebody else, or can even rip out a badly-written or embarrassing page without messing up the whole notebook, regardless of where in the notebook it is. Top marks for flexibility. Lastly, my partner is into orange (and not nearly as much into stationery as I am), and he wants one of them for work. So, I'd call that a win. Great stuff, will be buying some more. I bought it for just under £10, but it's a steal even at a couple quid more (the price seems to have gone up since I bought it).

As a busy working mum with two young children I have to be really organised. Previously I have written 'things to do' on post-it pads, the kitchen blackboard, calendars and spiral notebooks. Having recently moved house I decided to reorganise my paperwork and I purchased an Orange PAIPUR premium notebook. I chose the bright orange colour which I love. The bright colour also allows me to easily locate it in the house - whether this is beside some Lego construction or amongst the children's homework ! I can now keep all my 'to do' lists and 'projects' tightly contained in one place. The pocket at the back of the notebook is also really valuable as I am able to file important documents or receipts. This is a lovely notebook of very good quality. Tracy Hulland
