Amazon BasicsClassic Notebook, A5, Plain, Black

This is exactly what I was looking for. It is just a notebook that gets the job done. I have no real issues with it. It’s great for casual note-taking or just some doodling. The quality is fair for the price. If you are looking to get the best notebook, this isn’t for you. But if you want a notebook that works as a simple, everyday notebook, this would be a great choice. The price is not necessarily cheap, but it is generally quite an inexpensive notebook overall.Cool features/mentions:- I like the built-in bookmarker and the elastic that keeps the notebook fully shut. It is very compact. The size is small enough to carry around, and large enough to do all your note-taking, drawing or doodling.

Product works as advertised, it's a blank notebook with a well built exterior that can handle being put in a bag.It has a holder for all sorts of pages in the front underneath what I'd assume to be a stronger paper material flap, very useful for holding scrap notes, a built in bookmark to keep track of where you were, a good choice of paper that feels amazing to write on alongside an elastic band in order to stop the notebook accidentally opening while being transported.Overall, very satisfied with this, look forward to be using this as a daily driver for my notes, reminders and doodles.

I bought this notebook as a one-off purchase as a treat to myself after using cheap £1 jotter books for numerous years. (Along with a new fountain pen, an upgrade to cheap ballpoints).I like the built in page marker and elastic closing that is handy for attaching your pen to. The paper is only 10msg higher quality however this makes a markable difference which is definitely worth the upgrade . I admit the lack of a margin put me off at first though I seem to be able to keep myself aligned.I use this for a fountain pen and please to report there is minimal (if any) feathering and it does not bleed through the page.For the full price of near £7-£8, this is too expensive however. I bought two more on Spring Sale for £5 which is a better price however I will be re-assessing the worth when I am due to buy more books.

Does exactly what it should nice quality.

good size and feel

Not expensive but quality isn't great. Paper is so thin so I can see writing through the page. Otherwise it's "alright", nothing special.

Good quality, good price.

Don't expect a premium notebook - this is Amazon Basics but I was surprised with how good the quality of this is for the price.It doesn't feel cheap and the paper is good for sketching with pencils. The spine of this book allows you to open it fully and it has the elastic closure to keep the notebook closed and secure. Pages will depend on what version you choose - the blank pages notebook was just that, so make sure you are selecting what you want.
