Clairefontaine - Ref 4864Z - Europa Notemaker Sidebound Notebook (120 Pages) - A4 Size, 90gsm Brushed Vellum Paper, Micro-Perforated Sheets, Lined Rulings - Lilac

The bold colours make it easy to tell what subject is what, the paper is nice to write on and the notebook is sturdy. Everything a student needs

Looks like someone dropped it, and scrunched up the first 10 pages before it was sent out

High quality papers and great colour assortment, however, the product photo is DECEIVING / CONFUSING and should be REPLACED showing the exact quantity and colours because different colours is a key criteria that many buyers require. Showing the correct photo to start would prevent time being wasted during the sourcing stage and afterwards having to return them due to 'Not as Described'.The title suggests Assorted A - Ref 4850, which is the manufacturer's code for this particular pack containing the bold colours, 2 of each in purple, red, orange, green and blue (first 5 from right) If you want the other colours, you will have to purchase Assorted C - Ref 3155Z, this pack contains pastel shades, 2 of each in light blue, pink, yellow, light green, purple ( last 5 from left)I have purchased my pack at a great reduction from the Warehouse Deal described as 'items have been repackaged'. Unfortunately, on inspection, there is not a single book in perfect condition: 8 have bent wires / spine, mostly quite severe; 4 covers are very stained with dirt and 2 have stuck-on brown specs so the paper no longer feels smooth; 3 have bent corners. I immediately reported the huge defects to Amazon and was offered more discount which I have accepted. I think I have managed to fix the bent wire issue, but if the papers fall out during use, I will no doubt be returning them because the product would be completely unfit for purpose.UPDATE Mar 13/19I can see that the photos have finally been amended showing only the colours for this set Ref 4850. As already mentioned above, you will receive 2 of each bold colours: red, green blue, purple, sunny yellow.

I can keep my details of my PlayStation and other social media and my bank details

The paper in these pads is gorgeously smooth and it's a delight to write on. My hand and pen just glides across. The thickness of the pages is also impressive. The colour of each thick card cover is vibrant and I love the marbling effect. They are nicely wired and the pages tear out neatly. These are just incredibly great quality note books and they knock spots off my previous favourite Pukka pads.

This is a good 'workmanlike' notebook. The paper is good for wet ink (fountain pens, etc).

Review is for the A4 10 pack.This 10 pack is not quite as smooth as the individual version I bought over a year ago, but that is probably down to batch variation because the other characteristics are the same.It's white wide lined paper without holes and has a useful ring binding, perforations, and separate card cover front and back. I like the rounded corners. There are no margins and you can potentially write to the edge of the page if you like.Quite smooth and doesn't show bleed through of inks easily, unlike the Pukka pad I tried which was a waste of money as I could only write on it one side.This paper doesn't show up sheening inks especially well. There is some sheen but it's not like Tomoe River paper.At current prices this value is probably too good to last. Eventually they'll figure out a way to spoil it by making it cheaper or pulling 15 sheets. Something silly like that. So you might as well buy in bulk now...

Love these notebooks, the paper is nice to write on and the covers are sturdy without being too thick keeping them lightweight. I can theme my use of the notebooks with the different coloured covers
