This is the perfect dupe for the notebooks of Paperblanks. From the quality and, by design, the product is very similar, but a lot cheaper. I had only the Paperblanks calendar and am still very confident of them. As a notebook I'd buy me but none of 17-20 and am so very happy that I found this one. It's really super. On paper, can be written very well, it is not too thick and not too thin. The pins do not press through to the other side and see the lines also fabulous. The cord for einmerken the pages is very convenient.
