amazon basics Dot Grid Notebook, 100 Pages, A4 Size (8.5x11 inches), Dotted Pattern 5MM, Kraft Cover, Pack of 2

I've been using these notebooks from the start of 2025 and I'm obsessed with the quality. Here's the details - • Paper Quality : The paper quality is AMAZING, the paper is smooth, thick and it's really nice to write on • Bleed resistance : I've used a variety of gel, rollerball and fountain pens, as well as markers and highlighters to write on these notebooks and they DO NOT BLEED. The other side of the page come out clean. • Value for Money : These notebooks may not be cheap, but I think they are worth the money. Although I'd appreciate them being a bit cheaper cause I can't go back to writing in other notebooks 😅 • Functionaly : The dot grid pattern on the notebook is really functional, making diagrams for physics, chemistry and even mathematics is really easy with the help of the dot grids. They do not look messy and give the notes a clean, fresh look.

I bought it yesterday. I usually use dotted-grid notebooks for journaling and monthly tracking. I’ve tried different diaries and brands, but I saw this one and thought, “why not give it a try?” The paper quality feels really good and premium. I’m not used to A4-sized journals—I normally go for A5—but this size and quality actually work better for me because I can include more in my journal. It’s also great for doodling, graphs, and diagrams. I usually use Japanese ink pens, which sometimes bleed through other journals, but not with this one. Overall, it’s a solid choice.

The books are bigger in area than expected. They are absolutely beautiful and nice to write on. The pages are of good quality and not thin, so you won't have to worry about pen ink making its way down onto the next page. Having said that, the books tend to bulge in the centre when you start storing and carrying them in your bag.

Smooth and thick paper, doesn’t bleed, squares aren’t too dark (so writing is easily visible), spiral is good quality so the pages wont come out undone, the cover is also smooth to touch (good quality card board). Gives a premium feel. Worth it.

Great quality pages and just overall love the notebook perfect for artists and designers for some rough sketching and ideation

The quality of paper is very nice and the cover also feels sturdy. I've used it for stock taking and proper A4 Size papers made it very easy to create proper tables. Grid is also very neat and made my use case very efficient.

High quality product with good paper quality and minimalist design value for money

The only reason its 4 star and not 5, is because its actually not dot grid, but square grid notebook and that at A4 size its too big for most purposes. The paper quality is so good that, out of all my 6-7 types of quality notebooks, this one makes all my fountain pens write very well. I wish it came in dot grid, thin ruled and blank papers too. There are other amazon basics books like this, but paper quality isn't really same as checked with friends. Also I ended up cutting a book into two smaller ones for convenience!
