smart plannerDotted Journal - A5 Size 8.6 x 5.7 inches - Thick 160gsm Premium Bleed-Proof Paper, 170 Numbered Dot Grid Pages, Hard Covered Notebook with Pocket and 3 Satin Bookmarks (Grey)

WOW. This journal for the price?! AMAZING.I have always loved journaling and stationary, but recently with COVID I have definitely fallen into the bullet journaling community. But I didn’t want to spend up to almost $40 for a bullet journal. Especially as an amateur who’s doing it for fun and stress relief. I used some random target buy with tissue paper thin pages that the dots do not align correctly and the binding falls apart. Then I found this journal! Sturdy, THICCCCCC pages, and soo cute. I’ve even used sharper on these pages and did not experience ghosting. I provided pics for example and proof. Anything I glue or tape or sticker stays very well, and I honestly think you could manage to use a SMALL amount of hot glue depending on your planned use. I bought 2 additional and plan to stick with these for awhile. The only con I think I could say is the front symbol is starting to scratch off, BUT I carry this thing everywhere. I truly abuse it and throw it in bags in my car, in my room. So the symbol fading? Okay. The condition of this journal after all of the activity it’s seen in four months and used everyday? WOW, impressive! The biggest complaint I have.... I want MORE COLORS!!! Or at least a white one because I’m planning to alter/decorate the cover for my next one!! But I would like more variety in size and color. All over, fantastic journal. I’d recommend this journal to any stationary lovers. Also, I posted side by side of my new journals versus old one.

I caved and finally bought myself a dot journal!! This journal is pink and beautiful. I’m so excited to start being artsy and to start my bullet journalling. I’ve seen a lot of social media influencers that’s why I wanted to start one too. It’ll be a lot of fun and a good way to destress in this pandemic. I don’t know about other brands but this journal is very good quality. The paper is thick enough that my pen ink wont bleed through!! It has a “testing” page at the back (which is great) so I tried doodling and shading using my pens and there is no ink bleeding!! I’m very satisfied with this journal!

I contacted the company to let them know and they offered me a refund. The journal is actually really nice with thick pages so I asked if they would just send me a replacement. They sent it out without issue and the new one is great. No issues. In the first journal, the index pages fell out and a few pages in the middle of the journal had the same issue.I am changing my review from 3 stars to 5.Original review:I was really excited to receive this journal and it is really nice when you take it out of the mailer. Thick cover, thick pages, storage pocket in the back. However as soon as I opened it I realized the top half of index pages weren't attached to the binder. Honestly it would have been perfect if they had just quality controlled the journal since it looks like they were just never attached rather than the pages being torn out. My worry is that after a few uses they will fall out and then I'll lose the index section of the book.I actually would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for this issues as the journal is really nice. But losing pages really defeats the purpose of the journal

Just got into the hobby of bullet and my first few journals I just bought randomly and quick so I needed better quality. This was definitely worth the price. It is extremely sturdy. The pages are a true white, not cream color. The pages are also very thick and the ONLY bleed through or Ghosting came from me testing out a sharpie, which I can go without using sharpie happily. The outside is beautiful just wish it came in more colors/possible designs. I also loved the numbering in the book.

I’m new to bullet journaling and completely screwed up my journal. It was so bad that it made me so sad to look at it and I knew I wouldn’t end up using it. The challenges of being a Virgo!This new one came in the mail this morning. It is gorgeous! It has all the things that my old journal didn’t. I love the white pages versus ivory. That makes it so much easier to use white out on a mistake. It has two pages for keys and four pages for index. The very thick pages are numbered and plentiful.. And 4 pages in the back of the book for pen testing! (I wish my old one had that. 😐) It even has a nice box on the opening page to put your name or title of your journal. It has three ribbons for bookmarks – they are all the same color. That’s the only tiny thing I would’ve changed but not that big of a deal.I was feeling very guilty about buying another journal but I’m so pleased with the one I purchased. Now I Know I will be using it in 2021.

I can’t think of one thing I don’t like about this journal. It looks so cute and the pages are very thick. I got the light pink and it’s nice and feminine. I like the dotted look and mostly use this journal for grocery lists and weekly recipes. It comes with a stretchy loop to hold a pen. It has multiple ribbons attached for bookmarks and a stretchy band to keep the journal closed. The pages are also numbered and it has a page at the end for a pen test. The quality is great and I would highly recommend.

I love that the 160gsm paper has no ghosting and there are 170 bullet pages. The blue journal is a lovely teal color and the gold foil design on the front looks great. It arrived quickly, and in perfect condition.I don't really use a key or index, but for anyone who does: there are 2 pages for the key and 4 pages of index, as well as 4 pen test pages at the back.My ONLY complaint with this journal is that all 3 bookmarks are the same color ribbon which makes it a little harder for me. In my previous Tekukor journal, all 3 bookmarks were different colors and I used it to distinguish what each one was marking. It's ultimately a personal preference on my part, but I think they should be different colors.TL;DR - Great bullet journal, wish it had different colored bookmarks. Definitely would recommend.
