Fountain Pen Dream
on May 9, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
Purchased this because of the reviews recommending it for use with fountain pens. Most notebook paper bleeds through the paper or at least shows through to the other side. This paper does a remarkable job at stopping that. I will be purchasing this in other formats now that I know how well this paper performs. Staples please keep this in stock in the stores in more sizes.
This item works so well for me when I take notes - each day for each job I work on. I helps me keep track of what happens so that I can go back and look at tags that supplies were order and what was used for each job and of course when! Also who worked at each job for hours worked also if I was supervisor on a job as that is a separate cost to the job. There is a cost if something went wrong on a job and when an inspection took place. this Book is great just for keeping track of things in my line of work! I buy them all the time except they are not always in the store we shop at in Campbell. Thank you!
No floppy end boards...very sturdy...you can use your lap as a desk easily if needed. Separate double-sided pocket inside cover is very useful. And very nice to have full letter-size paper.
This is the best notebook out there for fountain pen users. Though the paper is a bit on the thin side fountain pen inks do not feather or bleed through. The paper is made from 80% sugarcane. The sheets are ruled with golden tan lines. The covers are heavy kraft board. If you buy these notebooks in-store you have more choices with cover designs than what appears online. There is a kraft sheet on the inside of the notebook with two pockets. These Sustainable Earth notebooks are available in 1 3 and 5-subject notebook format. It is also available in a 9 1/2" x 6" size notebook. My only complaint was the dry-feeling texture of the kraft covers though I do like the appearance of them and also like how sturdy they are. I hope Staples never stops selling these notebooks! Now if Staples would only come out with blank unlined sugarcane sheets!
