Even better than Rocketbook
I discovered this by chance when ordering an additional Rocketbook (which was my discovery just before Christmas). It has many advantages over Rocketbook, including several more pages, each of which can be removed or repositioned because of the ring binder that opens and closes. The pages are bound in an attractive, useful and sturdy cover that not only protects the pages but also has several pockets for storing stationery items or cards. It comes with an erasable pen (akin to Frixion pens, which you can also use). It also comes with a cloth for use when erasing with water. You can also erase with heat (eg hairdryer) but I have not tried that feature.All in all an excellent find, which I now use far more than Rocketbook. It does not come with an app but you can use it with the freely available CamScanner, which I've already been using for years. This is actually another advantage it has over Rocketbook because you're not paying for the app every time you buy the book. The book happened to be on offer when I saw it, which made my decision to buy it a no-brainer. I've since bought a second book which I gave as a gift to my Godson, who also loves it.Superb!

I liked it so much, I bought another...
I love stationary!I first came across this product looking to reduce my waste. I am forever buying different notebooks, for all my notes and lists (although I always forget which one was in use and would start another) so the concept of it being reusable appealed. Also, I have just started a course, so knew I will be making a lot more notes.I was doubtful it would be what I needed, but when I started writing, I got that sensory lift you get when writing on a banana skin in biro (seriously try it!). The pen glides along the paper, just begging you to continue writing for the sake of it. The ink takes a few seconds to dry (take note lefties) I mention this because if you rub too early the ink will smear, not that this is an issue because it's really not. Once dry, you can rub it out, use a hairdryer, or just rub it off with a damp cloth. I favour the wet kitchen roll method. As I do my assignments, when I no longer need them, I just wash the whole page off (so satisfying).Anyway, I liked it so much, I bought another one for my daughter (who didn't want to give mine up after using it), and then I bought the LCD Writing Tablet for my grandson (who is learning to write so that was perfect for him) and then I went to their website and ordered some extra paper (postage good and quick). Oh and then I showed my stroke advisor lady, who wrote down the details to get one because it is also perfect for her working in Health, and needing to get rid of personal information for our (UK) data protection act.So as you can tell I highly recommend this product. I like the ethos, the product (inside and out) and the customer service.This review is based on the A5 blue notebook x2 The ring binder is six ringed with a narrow pocket on the front, with three inside, one of those being a place to store cards.Personally I didn't bother with the cam software. It was not the purpose I bought this for.

Wipes clean, NOT huge fan of the software
As a a wipe clean notepad I love this. Unlike the Rocket Pad I've seen it has lined pages, dot pages and blank pages. I HUGE selling point for me. Frixtion pens write beautiful on it as well so you're not limited to dry wipe markers. The cover is beautiful and looks and feels classy. A small point for many BUT i like turning up to meetings looking like someone who writes notes a lot and not like someone who grabbed an a 4 pad from the railway station en route.The only down side is the app they tell you to download. I don't know if it's made by the people behind the book OR in a generic one. THe OCR doesn't' work, but I don't expect any machine to understand my hand writing. BUT it makes you watch a 10 second commercial before sending your notes to google drive or what ever. For me this isn't a deep breaker and the app DOES work, just not as cleanly as rocket books. I plan to hunt out a 3rd party app. but other than that all the pluses of this product AND the classy cover means I'd recommend it over the more expensive books out there.

Just Brilliant.
This just works. Easy to erase, easy to scan. I use this all the time. I have bought some additional coloured erasable pens which helps especially when scanning.Recommended.

A bit difficult to use actually
I have been using this notebook for about a week now and have developed some opinions.PROS* I like the idea of the reusable notebook* nice folio, I like that the pages come out to reorder* the pre-formatted pages could be useful in another context but I am fine with the lined, dotted and blank pages* pages are thin but robust* works great with Microsoft Lens scanner camera appCONS* you have to wait for the ink to dry before you can turn the page ... with a water-based pen on plasticated paper this can take a while, so you're sat there unable to write (or you take the pages out of the folio and lay them around the room to dry)* The ink doesn't simply rinse off the page with water, you have to scrub, and even then there is a faint trace of writing* Heat works astonishingly well - the writing disappears immediately with barely a trace, but who has a hairdryer on them between meetings / classes (have not tried with hand dryers like you might find in a washroom)I've not tried any other reusable notebook so I cannot comment on the relative merits of different brands.

Best reusable notebook so far
I have tried a number of reusable notebooks over the past years and this is the best so far. A very good writing surface, great leather binding, pen holder and magnetic clasp all combine to make this a product that I would recommend.

LOVE IT!
At work and at home, I am always looking for scraps of paper...…..I am also a stationary/gadget fiend, so when I saw this I knew I had to have it! It has changed my work life totally! It is so handy, and so easy to use...…..the gel comes off easy with the gel eraser....to be honest I have not tried a hairdryer, as I actually find erasing quite therapeutic! Great buy - highly recommend
