These books come in real handy for various reports etc. We use them a lot. It is much neater and more legible than writing on plain paper. And with the columns already there you don't have to worry about drawing lines on your pages. And these books are very good when doing taxes neat and clear.
Ink bleeds thru paper to next sheet. Cheap flimsy. Paper is weaker than the glue holding the pad together. Sheets are tightly compressed where three holes were drilled. Difficult to tear off a sheet without it tearing at the holes. Junk. Will never buy again.
