Key Features •Dot Grid •A5 Black Dotted Journal •240 Pages •90 GSM It has an elastic enclosure and a back pocket with two ribbon markers. It also has a leather finish and is very stylish. I did the detailed pen test that you can see the photos that I shared. Because being 90gsm the ghosting is light and almost no bleeding. It's ofc not fountain/ink pen friendly but yes it doesn't bleed though depends on the ink quality too. That's the minus point there but i hope they work on that too. Keeping ink pens aside, the best part is that Brush pens do not bleed, especially camlin ones so a plus point there. Also the whatever little ghosting is there, that is hardly visible when pictures are taken in natural as well as artificial light. Best of all it is absolutely affordable and cost effective and value for money. I can't absolutely wait to use it. Watch me use the journal at my art & bujo account @abujoist/Instagram Recommended for bujo/journal beginners. Ps the packaging deserves a mention which is why I shared an exclusive image of that too. Review: A Quality product indeed! - First of all the book came packed in a box so there was no damage to it. It feels premium & sturdy. Here are some points which i really like about this book compared to other brands :- - The binding is very well done & it does lay flat! - Paper quality is good; minimal ghosting/bleeding with pens&fineliners (Havent tested with fountainpens, sketchpens or watercolors) . It is thicker(90gsm) compared to others. - It comes with 2 bookmarks & a backpocket which are handy. - I got the dot grid ones which are 5mm apart & they dont stand out too much which is good. - The size is perfect to carry around in hand or inside a purse/bag. One thing i noticed was that the book felt a little heavy in hand (mayb its just me?). It could be cause the book cover is sturdy & also paper is thicker. Also the pages are not numbered (if anyone was wondering.) Both are not that big of a deal to bother me. Upon searching through many books especially dot grid ones, i think i finally found my go to notebook for bulletjournalling! Really very happy & satisfied with it. Definitely my favourite journal do far! Price is also reasonable for what it offers. Hoping to see color options & sqaure grid if possible in future! ## Features - 🔺Premium Notebook with Classic Black Leatherette Cover.

Hoping to see color options & sqaure grid if possible in future! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great notebook but not entirely fountain pen friendly *by V***N on 26 July 2019* This is a really well made notebook. Definitely a worthwhile one in my opinion. The outer cover as well as the binding are of a really good quality. The layflat design and the option of getting a dot-grid pattern certainly add to the value. The paper is also smooth to touch and write on. The only claim that didn't entirely work for me is the fountain pen friendliness. The paper is quite prone to feathering despite being pleasant enough to use. I tested it with the following combinations of pens and inks: 1. Lamy AL-Star B nib with Diamine Oxford Blue 2. TWSBI Eco B nib with Pelikan 4001 Turquoise 3. Baoer 100 F nib with Bril Turquoise Blue Unfortunately, the feathering was evident with all of the three combinations so it's probably not just one pen or ink. I haven't tested it with a roller or gel pen yet so can't comment on that aspect. The notebook is by all means a usable one, even with a fountain pen if you can live with the feathering issue but I doubt any FP enthusiast would want to do that. I'm guessing other free-flowing pens such as the Tombow Fudenosuke may also display similar characteristics. There's also a fair bit of show-through on the back of the page which could make it difficult to use double sided. Had the feathering not been an issue, this notebook would definitely be worthy of five stars in my opinion. Maybe the makers could take note of this and fix it in the further batches. ## Frequently Bought Together - MENORAH - Dot Grid, A5 Notebook - Black Dotted Journal - 192 Pages- 100 GSM- (210 x 135 mm) - 2024 Office Notebook, Planner - Completely Handmade, BUJO, Diary for Girls - BLACK - Tombow Fudenosuke Brush Pen 2 Pens Set,Black - Doms Super Soft Tip Pastel Shades Brush Pen Set | 12 Pastel Shades + 1 Silver Shade + 1 Blender | Ideal for Doodling, Illustrations, Calligraphy, Artists, Studenst & Professioanls | Pack Of 1 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/120164778-menorah-dot-grid-a5-notebook-black-dotted-journal-192-pages](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/120164778-menorah-dot-grid-a5-notebook-black-dotted-journal-192-pages) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-09-19*
