Not great for left-handed people, as the ink fades quickly after all. Otherwise, I love the principle! And I love the layout of the diary, even if it lacks a little color for my taste.

You have to wait for the ink to dry.Today, I used it at work and without doing anything on purpose (because I was on the phone), I took notes on the Note Book with a pen. I only realized it afterwards. Impossible to clean. It forces us not to use other pens. But that's not possible and forces me to be careful every time. Except that in an emergency, you can forget that you need to use a gel pen instead. What's more, colleagues have to be informed to avoid using their non-gel pens on the notebook. Not very practical and impossible to propose this solution in my company, which is very attentive to carbon emissions.

Hello Valéry! Thanks for your feedback? Indeed, using a gel pen with the stone paper is what makes the EcoNotebk reusable. So don't use conventional pens if you want to reuse your notebook, unless you want to make, for example, a chart that will remain as you fill it in and erase its contents. To always have the right pen and avoid your misadventure we automatically supply a pen with its pen holder to stick on the notebook. I'm sure that once you've stuck it on, it won't happen to you again. The information is also given on the instructions supplied and in the EcoNotebk on the first page, so your colleagues won't be able to miss it! Best of luck to you.

Free delivery, except that the choice is not available at the time of payment! Very quick reaction from éconotebk who phoned me 1/2 hour after my order and offered me an extra product to compensate for the delivery costs.for that I add 2 stars.on the other hand leaving the "free delivery" "ad", while they explain to me that they have abandoned it, is frankly limited. A webmaster can rectify this more than quickly.

Hello Ulrich! Thank you for your feedback, delivery was indeed offered for containment. Rest assured, since the end of November there have been no ads mentioning free delivery. You may have saved it, in which case you'll still see it, but now you're the only one. You consulted us before placing your order to claim the free delivery that was mentioned on the product sheet. The chat operator asked for 3 minutes to carry out the necessary checks and become fully acquainted with the current file in order to help you as best she could, but when she returned, you'd already ordered, complaining about the length of the check. Stéphen called you within half an hour to apologize and offer you an extra notebook in your order, which you accepted. Then we discovered that you had written a review on Trustpilot even though you hadn't received your order. We don't take this personally, we understand that you certainly needed to vent your frustration, and we're glad we could be of service. If the speed of our intervention and the notebook offered in your order didn't alleviate this, we hope your daughter will be happy to open her parcel at Christmas.Have a wonderful holiday season from EcoNotebk.

The pencil doesn't work properly. And you have to wait for the gel to dry.

You have to wait for the ink to dry before erasing with the white eraser, and he writes a bit too big. Otherwise, wet tissues are great for erasing everything!

Hello Eugénie! Thank you for your message. Following your TrustPilot review, you contacted us by email and telephone. You have now received your parcel. As I was saying, it goes without saying that when we become aware of a fault, in this case with a carrier, we do our utmost to rectify the problem as quickly as possible. For our part, we had dispatched the parcel on time. We are saddened by the rating you have left us, which does not reflect an opinion of our product, but rather a rating of the delivery company, especially as you no longer bother to reply to us or update your review...? Our customers are our number 1 priority, and their satisfaction is even more so. We hope you'll take the time to update your feedback to tell us about your use of notepads. Have a nice day Eugénie.

It looks very practical but unfortunately the title page is upside down on my copy, which really bothers me.

The A4 notebook contains a first section of pages with lines (no squares), then a second section with blank pages. Writing is really pleasant and it's easy to erase. The product is top-notch. On the other hand, the website is rather poorly designed. The description doesn't give enough details, the photos don't give more details and you can't miss the options in the second part of the order which don't correspond to the photos in the store (I bought a pack with 4 black pens when I wanted the 4 color pens). Efficient parcel delivery (why not in my letterbox, mystery...). Satisfied but too bad about the pencils.

Writing with the supplied pen isn't great: not very bold and not as fluid as advertised. It's a far cry from the pleasure of writing with a VPen pilot on Clairefontaine paper. What's more, the character recognition software offered is not very efficient. After my complaint, I received a suitable pen and my writing comfort has completely changed. Gliding = very good. Writing thickness = absolutely correct. You have to pay a little attention to the drying time of the ink. Otherwise the word will fade or smear. But the fixing time is not very long. Many thanks for your responsiveness. I haven't tested the application again, so I can't say much more on this point.

The Notebook is great, but the two basic black pens don't work. They don't seem to have been filled with ink...

Satisfied with the use, I think it will serve me well, we'll see over the long term if it holds up well.Small hitch in the drying of the ink, especially when turning the pages, if you don't wait long enough, it drools on the other side.Another problem with the pen, after 3-4 uses the mechanism to retract the lead no longer works ... Last little point for improvement this time, it would be very practical to have small ribbons in the notebook to find our last notes!

Hello Adeline! Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback? Concerning the pen (drying time and problems with the lead), we've sent you an e-mail so that we can see together what's going on, and of course find a solution. Our customer service is there to help you in any circumstance!?? As for the bookmark idea, we'll be adding it to our suggestions for future improvements, thanks to you!

Not recommended for left-handers. The "paper" doesn't absorb the pen quickly, and the hand spreads the bic across the page. Like when, in elementary school, you had to write in ink...

Not recommended for left-handed users.I'm reliving my childhood nightmares of my hand turning the letters I'd just traced into big pies in spite of myself.Here, the pages are made of a material that doesn't immediately absorb the bic, and the bic doesn't dry out until you touch it with your hand.A shame: I really liked the concept, and the delivery time was very quick.

Hello Stéphanie! Thank you for taking the time to give us some feedback? As I've just told you by email, I really can't say whether it's the angle of your wrist when you're writing, or potentially the pen you've received and its ink. I look forward to hearing from you so that we can find a solution!

I'm not going back on the quality of the A4 notebook and pens, but I think the price is way too high for the pack.

Hello ! Thank you for your feedback on your order? The small format is generally favored by our users as a "reminder", a memo, a notebook that slips easily into the bag and allows us to note the ideas that cross our mind during the day? Note also that all dimensions are displayed in cm, so that our customers can get a very precise idea of what they're ordering? I hope you enjoy using it!

A little disappointed with the experience. The company claims to be French and transparent, yet the product I received did not correspond to the one I ordered, seemed to be a foreign product (all in English) and was damaged.Customer service was very responsive, however, and I was able to get a quick refund for the notebook.

Thank you for your opinion Léa? As we explained to you by e-mail, the end of containment has made restocking difficult. We have to deliver EcoNotebk with neutral packaging for a short period of time, as they are initially intended for professionals/companies. To ensure that our customers benefit, we are currently offering a substantial discount on our products, details of which can be found on the "Promotions" page of our website. Our customers even find this an excellent opportunity to benefit from our products at reduced prices. You have unfortunately come across a faulty product, which is very rare, and when this happens we immediately remedy the situation with a return and refund or replacement, depending on the customer's request, as you have mentioned. We take care of our customers and listen to their concerns, we offer a money-back guarantee because our products are indeed of high quality? We confirm that the company is French, works with French suppliers and that we are transparent. Everything is indicated on the site, in the menu, or in the footer. We needed to make a few important clarifications to the points raised in your comment, which (in spite of yourself, I'm sure) could have misled readers.
