I ordered stick-it and out of the batch, half were defective.I contacted the "sav" and a batch was sent back to me by chronopost (that's good!) BUT when I wanted to pick it up at the relay point (within the time limit imposed), the professional of this relay point had just sent back all these parcels via chronopost because she was going to close her shop.) BUT when I tried to collect it from the relay point (within the time limit), the professional at the relay point had just sent back all the parcels via chronopost because she was going to close her store. So to date, I haven't collected the batch and I've had no news from either econotes or chronopost as to where and when I'll be able to get it.

Hello Sandra, Thank you for your feedback and sorry for the situation. The problem is indeed with the carrier. We have not yet received your return package, so we were not informed of the problem. Our customer service team will be in touch with you shortly to sort this out, so please don't hesitate to contact them directly in this type of situation. Thank you for your patience!

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it took a little longer than expected to be received, but otherwise the service is impeccable, I highly recommend it!

The practicality of being able to erase ad infinitum lives up to its promise, and I'm pleased with it because it's part of my zero-waste approach. On the other hand, I was expecting a slightly thicker notebook, to see if it would stand up to the test of time. Also, a cover page where you could write the owner's name, surname, etc. would be a nice touch ;)

Delighted with my purchase, one more ecogesture! A few small improvements to make, if I have to give 2: a directory at the end of the notebook, a ruler for easier access to the current week.Nice idea, nice initiative, I agree!

I like to write with a pen that glides over the paper without sticking. It's easy to erase without leaving a trace. If you heat the paper to erase a large area, be careful not to heat too much, as the following pages will also be erased.

I'm very happy with my notebooks, which are very practical and of excellent quality. I only regret that the tip of the pen is a little round, not fine enough, and that the wipe retains too many marks. These are just small details and I would 100% recommend the product.

The material of the pages and the pens don't allow for quality writing, and you can't alternate between a blank page and a line. NB: discussions with Lucie are constructive in finding solutions.

It's a great concept to be able to erase and start again! The only thing is, you can still read despite the eraser, I think. Slightly, of course!

Response from econotes
Thank you for your feedback Lucie! ?? We're delighted you like the concept. For erasing, in addition to the eraser, you can use the wipe with water or a hair dryer for the most stubborn marks ??

the content of the product is very good, but there's no option with or without a pen, and the matte cover (like silicone) is a bad choice, with all traces visible and unpleasant to the touch. The possibility of choosing 3 types of page for a notebook is a good formula.

In itself, the notebook does the job, but it's a pity it doesn't specify that it's an ultra-soft notebook rather than a rigid one, which means you'd have to write your notes on a table.PS: when the made-in-france feature is highlighted on the web store, it's a pity that the bank transfer shows "Econote Luxembourg" ...
Translated reviews
Response from econotes
We're sorry if the rigidity of our covers isn't to your liking. Our covers are semi-rigid, which gives our notebooks a certain lightness, unlike a thick, rigid and therefore heavy cover, made from wood and not water-resistant. We don't offer payment by bank transfer on our website. However, I see that you have paid by credit card. The online payment provider (Paypal or Shopify) is probably registered in Luxembourg, as is often the case. We are a French company registered in France. Our workshop is located in Mougins in the Alpes-Maritime, where we manufacture ALL our notebooks. We have no links with Luxembourg. You can find all the information in the legal notice on our website.

I ordered a notebook as a gift. What a surprise !!!! the notebook is small, the pens sold with it are emptying fast and the used pages are already marked after 3 days.
Translated reviews
Response from econotes
Doesn't that sound like the ideal gift? For the size of the notebook, we have different formats (A4, A5, A6). Maybe there's been a mix-up? As for the pens, the cartridge allows you to write 400 meters of lines, depending on your writing rhythm, it empties more or less quickly. You can only replace the ink cartridge by buying one on our website (x10 pack) or in the shops (Pilot Frixion brand is compatible with our pens). Finally, the pages marked so quickly is clearly not normal, as each page can be used more than 1000 times without alteration. Customer service will contact you to find the most suitable solution and we'll sort it all out.

Super happy with my purchase. The idea of the notebook bar is great for personalizing the content of the pages. I created a table of contents and numbered the pages to organize my notes. The negative point is the drying time of the ink. I'd recommend ?

The concept is great, but the pen wears out far too quickly - I found myself in revision period without ink - the inks of other brands leave marks on the notebook, so I have to wait for my delivery. Otherwise, the product is top-notch and very pleasant to use.

I bought a notebook and a diary. The diary so that I could reuse it every year and the notebook because I take a lot of notes that I don't necessarily keep, so I wanted to avoid wasting paper. I'm delighted with my purchase because the pen is very easy to erase and the notebooks are really reusable without any problem. My only minor disappointments are the fact that the ink takes a long time to dry, so you can't close the notebook immediately, and slight marks on the paper after erasing. But this doesn't affect the legibility of what you write on top.

Response from econotes
Thank you for sharing your experience with econotes products! It's great to hear that you're delighted with the reusability of the diary and notebook. Concerning the ink, yes, it takes a few seconds to dry like a fountain pen. This is because the ink is water-based. Don't hesitate to use the wet wipe to remove any traces left by the eraser... Thanks again for your purchase and your contribution to reducing paper waste. ????

I'm very interested in the principle, but the notes don't erase completely (there are always traces left), and I'm not a fan of the sheet material. Maybe I didn't get enough information beforehand.

I'm a stickler for handwritten notes, and Econotes has changed my habits by saving me countless drafts.The only drawback in my opinion is the lifespan of the pens, less than a month (hence the missing star), so I ordered a quantity of refills, which arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I recommend them for people like me who need to take notes that don't necessarily last forever.

Response from econotes
Hello Nicolas, I'd like to thank you for your review and your great feedback... Concerning the refills, one refill corresponds to 400 meters of writing, for the hardcore econoteurs, they can run out quite quickly.... This is because the ink is water-based, unlike a traditional ballpoint pen. That's why we offer low-cost refill packs?

The ink refills arrived safely, but transport to the Chronopost relay took over a week. The packaging was oversized. A bubble envelope via La Poste to my home would have been more efficient, quicker and cheaper.

Hello Matthieu,We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced in receiving your ink refills. We would like to apologize for the delays caused by the transport to the Chronopost relay. In such cases, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service department, who will be able to contact the carrier and reduce the delay. We use PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes) certified cardboard envelopes to limit our ecological footprint and promote sustainable forest management. Unfortunately, we understand that the format of these envelopes may seem oversized in some cases. We are constantly striving to optimize our packaging processes while maintaining the safety of our products during transport. Please note that home delivery is also an option available on our site via Colissimo, which may be a more suitable alternative for your delivery preferences.Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience encountered and thank you for your feedback, which helps us to continually improve our services. ???
