Beautiful invention. Easy to use. Saves time. Economy and ecology go hand in hand. Just perfect. Only slight downside: the pens don't seem to last very long.

Hello, thank you for your opinion? Please note that the pens are refillable, and you can purchase refills via our website. In addition, the ink in the pens is heat-sensitive, so please do not leave your pens near a heat source to avoid evaporation. ??

Very user-friendly notebook. The only problem is that page scanning is rather slow, and the camera often fails to recognize the edges of the page, requiring cropping. A frame recognized by the app would have been useful...

Thank you for your feedback. I advise you to use the AdobeScan application which is free and automatically recognizes the edge of the sheets for simple and efficient scanning. ??

I opted for the 3-pack of A7 notepads. There are some points that can be considered less positive: I'll start with those and finish with the positive points and why I'm satisfied.POINTS THAT CAN RELATIVELY GENERATE (TO BE KNOWN)I prefer to specify anyway, as these small details may count for some people:-- you have to press down quite a bit to erase with the pen's eraser. -- You also need to bear in mind that the gel pen takes a few seconds longer to "set", so you need to allow it to dry for a few moments to avoid the small smudges that can occur when erasing written content: For example, if you turn the page while it's not completely dry, this will "print" small smudges on the other page, the one in direct contact with the paper; there's also the case where you want to rectify/add things to the top of the page, but your hand slips over the letters already written and therefore smudges and/or fades.Having said that, it seems to me that these are characteristic features of this type of erasable gel pen in general.I AM SATISFIED WITH MY PURCHASE OF THE PACK OF 3 A7 NOTEBOOKS.Although I don't have the necessary hindsight to judge the longevity/resistance of the notebooks (because I bought them recently), I can say, from my experience, that I'm satisfied with them! 1) SMALL FORMAT OF (A7 NOTEBOOKS) PRACTICAL AND HANDY. Perfect to fit in my little satchel. This means I can take them with me wherever I go, so I can easily take notes wherever I go. 2) A PLEASANT ORGANIZATIONAL HELPER: I'm the type of person who makes a lot of to-do lists and constantly takes loose notes to help me organize my day-to-day life, and this really makes my job easier. As well as reducing my paper/notebook consumption, it helps me focus on the essentials: when I don't need my notes anymore, I just delete them. It's as if the blank page helps me to become aware of my achievements, while at the same time helping to lighten my information-saturated mind. In a way, I feel a little lighter, both materially and psychologically. Super, for my organization and therefore daily life management! [PS: I really like the fact that you can have the "Hipli reusable parcel" option when selecting delivery information].

Hello, I'd like to thank you for your constructive review and for taking the time to write it! ? Regarding erasing with an eraser, it's true that you have to press down just like you would when erasing a pencil with a classic eraser. To erase an entire page, I recommend that you use the wipe provided, and moisten it slightly, to save time and energy!?? As for pen ink, this is indeed a characteristic of this type of ink. Like fountain pens, the ink takes a few seconds to dry. ?????On the plus side, I'm delighted to hear that notepads make your life easier - that's our mission and our goal?

This is the 2nd diary I've bought to rotate. This one seems much more fragile than last year's version. The cover is very soft compared to the old model and there are no rings in the middle of the pages. Otherwise, the pages are perfect.

Very fast shipping! Thanks to the responsiveness of Econotebook's customer service, I was reimbursed for the customs fees I had to pay (which were completely unusual). I really like the softness of the pages, although I regret that the "dots" on the pages are not the same size as the classic journal bullets, and the frame around the pages reduces space too.Thanks to Econotebook, I can do my bit for the planet, and I use my notebook every day in my classroom.

The notebook seems fine, pleasant to write in, a little downside for the ink drying, on the other hand, I bought it for transcribing notes into a pdf or word file, and it turns out that the CamScanner application costs 32 euros/year...I thought the idea of a manuscript and being able to transcribe into a file was nice, I'll stick to taking notes on the computer...

Hello, thank you for your opinion. Concerning the ink, it does indeed need a few seconds to dry, like a fountain pen. If the ink takes longer to dry, don't hesitate to contact us to check that the pen has no defects. The CamScanner application has a totally free part that works very well for scanning notebook pages. You can also use another scanning application if you wish, such as Adobe Scan, genius scan or scanbot.

So useful, the perfect compromise between paper and tablet! The only small flaw is that writing just after erasing is not easy, the "ink" doesn't grip well.

Hello Thomas, I'd like to thank you for your opinion... I'd advise you to erase with the slightly dampened wipe, so you won't have any problem rewriting directly afterwards...?

I think the idea is really superb and the notebooks are classy. I think I've finally found the ideal support for my organization.Little things to improve:It's a shame to receive the econotebk in plastic for a notebook that limits wasteIt sometimes leaves traces of inkI've tried everything but it doesn't go away. I think it's the way I was wiping with the damp cloth in the first place. I think I've found the technique now.

Hello Cécile, Thank you for your opinion! The plastic containing the notebook is oxo-degradable, i.e. it decomposes under the effect of light, oxygen and heat!

Great idea. I think I've finally found the ideal support for my organization. I'm a little worried about the traces of ink that remained on my notebook, which can't be wiped off with a damp cloth or hair dryer. I think I've now found the technique to erase without leaving a trace. It's also a pity that the notebooks are delivered in plastic, even though they're designed to reduce waste.

My opinion is rather mixed. The notebook is well made, solid and practical. What bothers me is that not all the pens are erasable. Only the friction pens (which are already erasable) are. My well-stocked pencil case is thus replaced by a simple pen, which I have to admit writes well and erases efficiently if left to dry. A limited use, which means that if you only use suitable pens, you've got a war machine, but if you need to work with your own material, you've paid a lot of money for a notebook.

Very practical bottle for erasing the notebook at any time. A little small so needs to be refilled often, but at least it fits in a pocket.

Hi Camille, First of all, I'd like to thank you for your opinion... Concerning the lead marks, there's no need to press hard when you write, as this will limit the traces left on the paper....

Writing comfort is incredible! However, after a month of daily use, I noticed that the pages were "yellowing" (stains visible on the page scan) with each erasure, despite the care taken to use only the pens supplied and the daily cleaning of the cloth. However, I'm aware that I'd have to add extra plastic to the composition of this rock paper to keep it immaculate, so I'm taking it upon myself.

I've had it for a few days now and I'm a fan! I took my first B5 notebook to test it out and I love it! Well, it's bigger than a commercial B5 notebook, but that's okay. It's really practical. I'll see when I've finished it - erased it - started again. Only downside: the blue pen ink takes far, far too long to dry! After 30 minutes (I'm not exaggerating) it still leaves traces on the opposite page when you close the notebook. It's a real shame, because not only is the color super pretty, but I prefer writing in blue to writing in black.

good basic idea, but when you erase the notes, the page on the pad remains "dirty" and erases badly, too bad.

Perfect quality, very pleasant writing with the sensation that the pen glides over the paper. Nice colors. Fast, careful shipping. The only drawback is the drying time of the ink on the paper. You have to put a sheet if you can't wait to close it after writing.

The blue pen erases very well, the others less so. Be careful not to leave the written notes too long, otherwise some traces will remain, and let them dry well before closing the pages. Otherwise it's a great product that will last a long time, given the number of pages!
