RETTACY Dotted Journal Notebook, 160 Pages per Pack, A5 (5.7'' × 8.3'')

Since everyone else seems to only care about markers and pen, thought I'd weigh in. I'm picky about my dot/graph paper. I have books filled with technical drawings, and the highest praises I can give to such paper are: 1. Is it heavy enough to be moved around the shop or studio? 8.5/10. I wouldn't hate it if this was a HAIR thicker, but totally not a deal breaker. 2. Does it work well with GRAPHITE (eg, is it too rough/too smooth)? 9/10. For all-purpose paper? 10/10. 3. Does it erase well? Does it tear? Is it prone to smudging? 10/10. No complaints. 4. Most critically, for me, ARE THE DOTS TOO HEAVY OR FAINT? 10/10. No! They're spot on! I'd call them maybe 40-50% opacity (black on white)? Call it 4H-6H? At a glance, I'd call it #9999AA (they appear to have a SLIGHT cool tone to them, but I'm writing this in my shop, not my studio, and the lighting in here is all 6000K ambient LED, maybe - MAYBE - 90 CRI)? But most critically, the dots can be easily 'shopped out with minimal effort or even impact on the illustration. They're JUST dark enough to see for purposes of laying down a line or following a curve, but still light enough they don't change the cast of the image if a line falls atop one. Clearly visible through engineering stencils too. All in all? 9/10? Call it 9.5 if you factor the price (WHY is DOTTED paper more expensive than LINED?! It's LESS INK! "There's less demand." For you to hit the bloody PRINT BUTTON!? I call BS.) If you're looking for a solid, all-purpose pad for writing notes, graphite, pen, or marker work, this is a solid choice. There's a BIT of bleed through with heavy inks (I said it could be a hair heavier), but since I work 99% in pencil? I believe the expression is, "Nyah nyah!"

The covers are clear. They come with lovely stencils you can decorate the first and last page with. They are a nice size and the paper and wire binding solid.

I needed to get a dotted notebook for class, this one was a great deal for two. I do not know much about the requirements needed to have a good bullet journal or dotted notebook, but compared to the typical paper, it was thicker and the size was perfect. B5 paper is not pocket sized, I would get A5 for that, this notebook was B5 and it was good for my class assignments. The notebook survived a semester in my backpack, and the spirals are good at keeping is flat when on a table. I used Pilot V5 RT and highlighters often, and I glued many things inside the notebook, and it did not bleed through or bend after using over 30 pages.

Very sturdy cover and pages.

Very useful! Plastic cover is sturdy and will not damage easily. Good thick paper that does not bleed too easily. Love it! Except that the dotted grid is not 1-1 with each book. otherwise 5/5 stars. I keep purchasing these books over and over due to the clear covers that allow me to title and draw anything on them

I ordered these a while back when I was past due for my next year’s agenda. I’ve been proudly utilizing personalized bullet agendas for 5 years now and they’ve changed my life on so many levels! ^__^ Such an amazing tool you guys! That being gushed about and all, This particular product pack of 3 was super affordable, the quality of materials is There and each one has more than big enough to fulfill a year’s-worth of calendar & agenda-ing needs! At some point this year I am absolutely ordering another set of these guys to last me the next 3 years since I’m on the last of the 3 now, which is the pink one. Last year I went with yellow. And the blue one I actually gifted a friend who I got into bullet agenda-ing hehe. Once you transition, you’ll never go back to pre-made agendas. Though, I will add that is where I personally began using agendas in the first place! And developing & establishing That habit alone is not easy for the first month or two. But guy, it’s amazing and I couldn’t recommend a more helpful tool for one’s life and such. As I gush some more lol.. Anyways, thank you for taking the time to review my review and hopefully it was helpful. By the way, I’m SO using the blue one from this next pack for 2026. o__o. I never got the chance to use that one! And it’s a lovely shade. ^_^

I have been looking for a notebook to write in because the leather bound ones that I have been purchasing have sadly been coming apart on the bind which is lame because I wanted them to last me my life.And plus I haven’t gone up in price! I was a little skeptical and getting these because of the rings but they have been put to the challenge and they have kept up they have not bent or been ruined at all! Also the thickness of the page is perfect and the inkdoes not bleed through The pages which is amazing I was worried at first when I first felt it but after writinf in it it’s just been perfect. The only issue I kind of have is at the rings are a little bit too big so when I’m writing on the back of the page it kind of gets in my way but that’s fine because I can work around that! I love that they sent 3 of them and the price is awesome!!! I definitely will be purchasing these from now on as long as they don’t go up in price like the leather bound ones have been!!

I love these notebooks. It's A5 paper, which fits into most handbags for carrying around. I mostly use it for drawing, and although the paper does smear a little it is surprising for the price. The dot paper is great for note-taking but doesn't distract from drawings. The cover is super sturdy: it is so tough I have used it more than once as a cutting mat. The cover is a glassy clear. My one complaint is that the spiral is not super sturdy and sometimes it becomes difficult to open and close the cover, but it's hard for me to say seeing as the price for the notebooks individually comes out to be so low.

Very good value, considering three of these cost the same as one normally. Paper quality is good, does not bleed or feather. Using these for compiling recipes and will use one as a travel journal.

Tenía una libreta similar, y pedí estas esperando que fueran como la que tenía y terminó siendo igual o incluso diría que mejor. Gran calidad de hojas, puntos suaves que permiten escribir libremente y además trajo unos stencils muy utiles :)

Beautiful pages to write on and super convenient size to carry. The paper quality is outstanding

Nice pages and nice dots in it. Perfect for designer to create a design . Pages are good.

i love it
