Review on 3-Pack Dot Grid Notebook/Journal Refills For Standard Size Travelers Notebook - 100Gsm Paper, 8.25X4.25 Inch by Jerry Bergstad

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent, But Doesn’t Hold Up to Regular Removal

Overall I was pretty pleased with these notebooks. However, for my weekly insert I remove it from cover to set up each week so I can more readily change the orientation and have a smoother writing surface for drawing my designs out. At about halfway through the journal (3 weeks) the center page worked free of the staples and I had to tip it in with washi tape.Maybe it was that notebook, but the staples were not very securely closed and they seemed a bit short for the thickness. The other two inserts I’ve now reinforced with washi covering the staples and acting as a barrier against the elastic band.

Pros
  • Great. Fit into my September Leather journal perfect.
Cons
  • Tearing pages may lead to damaged spiral binding
