  Cartesio large notebook  bought these for a good friend who was going on a trip to india for 6 months, she wanted to record her trip. She was really pleased with the journals,just the write size for her handbag but not too small either. Lovely quality.   caroline - southampton

  Excellent journal  I was looking for a notebook to use as a travel journal. This looks good , fits in my handbag, and has useful pocket to keep tickets/pictures in. Will certainly buy more.   Patricia Beasley -

  Black notebook  Good construction, nice inner covers with maps of the planet, reasonably ruled pages, envelope pocket at the back for small items, ribbon for locating the current page and elastic tie. Very pleased with the product.   Phil - Surrey

  Excellent  Leather cover looks and feels special and should last a lifetime and the paper easily takes fountain pen ink. Quite expensive but, unlike the Moleskine, is worth the money in my opinion.   Matthew Bodycombe -

  Better than a Moleskine  Quite simply, I have been looking for a robust, lined notebook for months and the Cartesio is the only one that is well-made, beautifully presented, closed with an elastic band & has a back-cover mounted envelope. Just missing a pen loop. Get one and you'll never need another shabby Moleskine.   Mark Wilson - London

    Just bought a few of these. They are excellent in all respects. Service from The Journal Shop was prompt; product well protected and packaged. Very satisfied.   Peter H - Bristol

  My new best friend  These are wonderful notebooks. Better than Moles for how I use them. Takes fountain pen ink without bleed. I order them from the states and although they cost a bit more, it is worth it. Hopefully Cartesio willbring out a planner soon.   Steve Fournier - USA- Georgia

  Not very happy  I had hoped that this might be better than Moleskines but it wasn't and my ink bled.    -

  very average journal... quality control doubts  Leather cover feels great but seems very thin. Attachment of pages to inside leather sleeve was poor and mine had a large gap at top but very little gap at bottom. Sleeve at back was clearly an after thought. Paper itself seems decent quality. Smaller spacing between lines would be better.   Grant - London
