Hobonichi 2022 Notebook Unit, Day-Free, Cousin Size, A5 Size

Nice little notebook planner. Pages are lightweight, but sturdy enough.Did not observe too much of ghosting or dripping even with fountain pens and felt fineliners, which is great for such thin pages.It has grid made with tiny dashes - superb-looking.If you are going to buy it first time -- check if smaller grid (it is noticeably smaller) works for you on some non-expensive notebook first.One might find them somewhat smaller(closer to 1/7inch),if 5mm(1/5inch) or 6.3mm(1/4inch) are all one had used before.

I used a Weeks for a while but found I just wasn't using the weekly section. I opted for this one and have been really enjoying it. The calendar is bigger and I have converted the back pages to a financial calendar for bill due dates, paychecks, and such. I don't decorate my planners too much with stickers but if I want to there is plenty of extra, but not wasted, room.

The cover did come a little bent but I am going to use a cover with it

Loving that there is no pressure to write in it daily due to its Undated pages. A6 is small but it’s perfect for focusing on the most important things to record. If you’re not sure whether you want to commit to a dated version of Hobonichi due to pricing, this is a great entry to try it out.

I got it and immediately wanted to purchase more. The paper is thin but heavy and hasn't shown any evidence of potential bleeding. It did arrive dented in a few places, but it didn't bother me too much. I'll probably purchase a cover to protect from future wear.

I have used a planner for as long as I can remember and I have gone through many, but this hands down is my favorite and I have been using it for 5 years now. The A5 fits nickels into my LV cover and it keeps me organized and allows me to journal and capture all my lists and goals. I love Hobonichi. When you order directly from them, they usually give you a multicolor pen. Price is comparable too. But if you want it fast, Amazon is the way to go pretty much always. This planner is a little price than most but well worth it.

This notebook is a dream to write in. Firstly, the paper is high quality. Very thin and lightweight, but pens don't bleed through or feather. The pages are smooth so the ink glides on the page. The stitching and binding lets the pages fall flat when open. I wasn't sure about the price at first, but I will be repurchasing these. I think it is slightly cheaper on jetpens.com compared to amazon but this notebook blows standard notebooks and planners out of the water. No contest. I understand why there's a cult-like following for this brand.

I just need to write down a few things on my calendar per day and I love having the who month view. Most of the calendar is blank paper for notes. Great paper for fountain pens. I use an EF pilot vanishing point with pilot ink cartridges. Great size for keeping in my gym bag I bring to the office.
