I adore my esc.goods dot grid notebook.
I use it for bujoing and have found it handles a variety of mediums other notebooks dont - Including but not limited too Fountain pens and ink, Premium dye ink pads, versafine ink pads, memnto ink, chalk ink, light-medium watercolouring, acrylic paint pens, highlighters, gelly rolls / gel pens, crayola super tips, tombow dual tip & twin tone markers, chameleon markers, fineliners, pigment ink multiliners... the list goes on!
Most page spreads have perfectly aligned dot grid over both pages, there are a few instances where they are a little out, and this tends to be when one "signature" faces another - but none have been terribly mis-aligned.
The customer service has been beyond reproach.
The reason I would deduct a half star, is because the grey book with blue elastic/pen loop is a little non-sensical for me when only introducing a single colour notebook to start with - I feel grey on grey, or blue on blue, or even black with the grey would give it a far more polished, modern and chic look.
Likewise the cover leaves me with that "someone ran their fingers down a chalk board" feeling - I feel a textured covering like the black notebook, or a standard covering would have been advantageous. I also believe it would have 'worn' better (as this one is prone to look 'grubby')
In all, I do love this notebook, and would happily re-purchase this book, over similar, overseas branded 160gsm dot grid notebooks.
