Dotted Refills

These are, by far the best Travelers Notebook refill/inserts I've tried, and I've tried a LOT! First and foremost, these are stitched, not stapled, and that's a "must have" for me, because I like to spend my journaling time, you know, JOURNALING, and not trying to figure out the most effective and efficient way to rebind my BRAND NEW notebooks the very first time I write in them, and the pages are already falling out, and now I have to figure out how to of re-staple/re-bind/patch back together/tape/glue/death stare a brand new, barely used notebook back together!!! (... it's just a teensy weensy, minor annoyance for me, personally, obviously... 😒🙄) Point is, THESE notebooks NOT ONLY *DON'T* fall apart, at all, ever, but there's not even a sign of the slightest possibility of a loose stitch, let alone unraveling stitches. At. All. Like I said, rebinding brand new notebooks = "minor" annoyance, and every staple bound I've tried has fallen apart. Every. Single. One. These stitched one haven't even pretended like they might. *Chef's kiss*, as the kids say. Moving on. The pages are thick, and I know, this might come as a surprise, but I'm VERY picky about my journaling supplies, so the thick pages that can be written on front and back are another "must have" for my journaling notebooks, especially when there aren't *that* many pages to write in to begin with. I used 7"x9", 120 page, Office DepotMax brand notebooks with standard, cheapy, regular ol' super thin, college ruled paper for daily journaling for literally years, and could get about a months worth of single-sided per page writing out of 1 of those notebooks, but average about 2 weeks of daily journaling filling up these smaller notebooks, but the ability to write front and back on every page is what makes that possible, otherwise I'd need at least one of these each week, which would add up quickly. Also, let me be completely transparent here: I'm not using fountain pens or anything like that, so I can't speak to whether or not they'd play well together, but my plain ol', boring, basic bitch MUJI 0.38 pens + these notebooks get along smashingly! Best of friends! (Also, I use a pencil board/writing board, and that's another game changer. Worth the few bucks, for sure. Get one. Or a few. Thank me later). I was a hardcore, wouldn't budge, 100% committed to college ruled paper ONLY, until death do us part... until I tried these. Still not quite ready to commit to a lifetime of holy matrimony with the dot grid, but it's pretty damn close, man. She's quite lovely in basically every way. *Heart eyes* TLDR: Buy these! -stitched, not stapled, don't fall apart, AT ALL -thick pages, can easily be written on front and back -dot grid is lovely, helpful, useful, and versatile

These notebooks are perfect for my purposes. Well constructed. I’m very happy with the overall quality. The binding is neat and the string is strong. Paper is a very good weight, even my fountain pen does not bleed through. I like that they came in a pack of three. Convenient size for my purposes. I was a little hesitant because of the price, however, I find it well worth the quality. Another set is already in my cart, same brand, same seller.

Really great quality. Pages are smooth and thick. They must have taken feedback from previous reviews because the dots are uniform from page to page. Fits in my A5 travelers notebook perfectly. No issues.

The paper is a fairly nice quality. My pens don't bleed through and are faint on the back side. I've purchased books before where you can't use the backside and you can see pens through the paper. What I don't like is the dots migrate across the page from page to page and aren't consistent. Not bad for the price.

Amazing quality refills! Works great with fountain pens and some light marker work, works well as sketch paper too. The dots aren't too intrusive. And most of all STITCHED BINDING!! For someone who constantly is opening and closing and rearranging the books, and references them after they're full it's nice that they're still sturdy even though they're just travelers notebooks.

Deff will purchase again, Good paper Quality.

Very disappointed with the production quality, specifically how the paper is cut since the spacing of the dots from the edges of each page vary. Paper material quality is acceptable thanks to the 100gsm. Other than that, I am debating on whether or not to return the inserts. Edit: I've decided that the dot alignment imperfection is too much of a con for me to use so I will be returning this next weekend since weekdays are busy/inconvenient. The flaw is present in all 3 inserts. I will never buy again until this issue is fixed and sold at the same price it is today. One might say that I'm being nitpicky/harsh, but picture this. If you used a dotted notebook to draw a table to record whatever data. From the cutoff imperfection of the dots, you are essentially losing 1 column of valuable data in your table. It's just unacceptable. Aside from that, the cuts, the quality of the paper, everything else other than the dot alignment, is fine which gives this at least a 3/5 star rating. If this issue never existed but still sold at the same price, I probably would've given a 5/5 star.

Perfect for everyday notes , the size , thickness and beauty . I love it this is why I always buy it. 😊

Great feeling paper, fountain pen friendly with hardly any bleed through. Perfect value for money, with 3 in a pack. The paper is quite thick compared to some other refills I have used. Fewer sheets than the standard branded ones, but I don't mind that - it makes the refills thinner and therefore easier to fit more in my cover.

Good product

Generally good journals, but had an unpleasant smell (some sort of sweet scent) that was still in the covers after letting them air out for two weeks. So far I haven't used them because of that. Otherwise: * average paper thickness * dots were a bit dark to my taste but still fine * slightly folded corners * accurate 5mm dot spacing

Es un repuesto de la misma marca que el cuaderno con cubierta de cuero. El papel es de muy buena densidad y el tamano es perfecto ya que son del mismo productor. Muy recomendado.

The dots are not consistently lined up on every page. The sewing of the spine feels slightly out of balance which means the pages don't line up when closed. Paper is of okay quality but wrinkles a lot with anything except pens. It handles ink well and doesn't bleed through. It does shadow slightly with thicker line pens and the like.
