I love that I can have hard cover notebooks that do not get ruined in my bag and still be eco friendly and tree-free!!! This is a wonderful product and my new favorite for college.

I bought two of these notebooks last year and was very pleased. Looked for them especially this year. Made from sugarcane seems environmentally responsible to me.

Great Notebook!

I like this notebook because it is easy to take notes in pen and in pencil on. It also is easy to remove the paper for homework purposes. The only thing that isn't good about it is that when I flip the paper it sometimes tears.

Eco and budget friendly

I really liked the notebook once I got used to the thinner paper. The spiral binding is high quality and it's held up well being toted back and forth from work. It's also reasonably priced for an eco-friendly notebook.

Sheer awesome

This paper is relatively thin but that doesn't stop it from being great. I like to use fountain pens and this paper barely feathers at all. And even though the paper is thin bleeding is minimal as well... all around great stuff! Too bad they stopped selling the filler paper version of this...

Clean & Simple

I like to think of myself as an eco-conscious student and when I saw these notebooks I had to give them a shot. They are visually appealing with a back-to-basics clean look with no glitter or frills. What's more is that it allows customization with stickers or doodles all over the cover - and I really dig that. I have noticed that some cooler green-striped patterns have shown up on the smaller notebooks and I'd like to see them on the 8 1/2 x 11's. Overall I've been very impressed with the performance. It withstands the rigors of being toted everywhere has a writing surface that's great with ball-point pens gel pens and pencils; ink doesn't bleed through the pages like many other notebooks will allow. I think the more subtle brown lines are really cool and I haven't had any negative professor comments on it (really as long as it's written in blue or black ink they don't seem to care about the line colors). The pages are super easy to remove and with the pre-punched holes makes them easy to catalog in a binder for later. You're really getting a great bang for your buck with these!! However my ONE criticism: these really need to come in a MULTI-SUBJECT. I don't want to have to lug around a different notebook for each class; it's lame. Make a multi-subject (3 or even better a 5-subject) and I'm all over it!

Great Notebook Bit Cumbersome
on August 30, 2009

This product was my number 1 back to school buy. I play school sports so I am constantly without a hard surface to lean against while doing homework. The hard covers on this notebook help me get more done at games while still having nice penmanship. The only downside to this product was that the lined paper inside is not the traditional blue color but instead an amber. Some teachers have made slight grievences about it but its definetly not enough of a problem that i would consider returning them.
