Fabriano EcoQua Dot Grid Note Pad, Small, Glue-Bound, 90 Sheets, Orange

The notebook is perfect for fountain pens. The paper provides nice feedback. It shows shading and sheen great, and has no ghosting or bleed through. The problem is, the notebook I received is used, and still has a shipping label stuck on it from where it was sent to the previous recipient. Will definitely be avoiding Hyatt's All Things Creative from now on.

Dot Grid paper. Great quality paper (pen/pencil)... love the light dot grid pattern. I go out of my way to find these notebook. However, if you have a Dick Blick art store near you (I no longer do)... they have the best prices and carry these notebooks.But love the Fabriano line of paper/notebooks.

The rating comes with a caveat. The first one I purchased had a ring binding. I loved it and thought I purchased the same style in a different color. I ended up with one with a glued binding. That's completely my fault for not reading the descriptions better. However, I've had the new one for about a month and the binding already is coming loose and pages are coming out. I use it as a bullet journal, so it gets light daily use. I was hoping I'd have longer before the binding gave way.

I have the spiral bound versions of this notebook, and I love them, but these are just pointless unless you want loose leaf paper. It’s like writing on a book of post it’s each paper falls out immedietly. Really disappointed.

Instantly disappointed. The notebook was NOT bound by metal spirals as shown, but rather the most basic of basic note pads with glue along one edge keeping the sheets together. I opened the pad up and immediately 6 sheets just fell right out. Only purchase if you want loose leaf paper, because this "notebook" has totally ineffective binding. Will be sending back. Very very disappointed.

I love this notebook and have been using this type for my to do list for 3-4 years. First of all, the covers come in great colors that are easy to find. Second, I love dot paper it's so versatile and the size is perfect for daily planning. Finally, the glue binding is convenient, love to tear off my old to do list and on to the new!

The grids and paper are nice for bullet journaling, but the glue holding the pages together cracked and now I just have loose sheets held together with a binder clip.

I don't care for the binding. The pages started bulling away from it.
