Dipper leather DOT JOURNAL

Just as good as Archer&Oliver and Notebook Therapy 160gsm dot journals. Paper held up well to everything I tested. Pens: Only ghosting was the Sharpie, which was expected. Some feathering with the micron brush pen. Paints: Minimal warping of the paper with paints, and almost no paper tears from washi tape. Paper held up great to layers of watercolor. Journal lays flat, paper is soft white, dots muted gray, great price point for what you get. Great journal, good price point, easily available.

I purchased this notebook in December of 2023 and have used it just about daily in 2024, so about 10 months of use now! It has held up so well and it looks like I'm going to be able to fit the full year in this journal and switch to a new one for 2025. The paper thickness is great, nothing really bleeds through except the occasional sharpie. The cover design and color has remained gorgeous, although the gold on the page edges has faded but I think that's normal. It's the perfect size and the fabric texture is very satisfying. The only tiny downsides are that I think the spine has detached over the last year, and the more expensive versions have more pages than this one. Overall 10/10 notebook and while I considered the name brand version for 2025, ultimately I'm going with another one of these because you can't beat the quality for the price!

This is better than the Leuchtturm & Bullet Journal brands (both of which are 120 gsm). This journal is linen-backed, has a back pocket, comes with stickers, grid spacing guide, a 2026/2027 calendar card, a metal ruler, & paperclips. I am impressed with the quality as the paper is nice and thick and I am sure it will hold up to all types of art mediums. I am excited to use this journal.

Very good quality. It’s a great size. It’s lays flat. I didn’t have any issues with it bleeding through. Overall it’s an awesome journal. Plus the accessories that come with it are adorable and useful.

I purchased this journal at the start of 2024 (it’s now newly 2025). I was going to use it, but I ended up going with a different brand for 2024. I am now jumping in with this journal, and I was reminded why I considered returning. Kinda dumb, but the calendar it came with was a year old by the time I got it. (It came with a 2023 when I bought it in 2024.) Now that I am starting my new year journal (lil late 😬), I figure, “Eh.” It looks like SeQes stopped providing a calendar to stop the problem I had. (I remember reading a review where the same thing happened to another purchaser.) The set now just comes with the notebook, a few stickers, paper clips (so cute!), and a ruler. PROS: Thick, sturdy cover. Lovely linen feel. The leaf print I got is subtle, which I like. The color is very pleasant, and I appreciate the pen holder on the side. The pages are thick and numbered. LOVE the full size pocket at the back. (Another journal I purchased, the back pocket was half size which just caused things to fall out.) CONS: The calendar (might be a moot point at this the time of writing the review, but I’d love an updated one if they have one). The ruler/bookmark is quite flimsy, and it likely can’t be used for anything other than a book mark. It is super cute, though! All in all, I’m excited to jump in! I don’t foresee any issues, and I’m looking forward to creating my 2025 journal! Unlikely, but if it suddenly explodes or the pages fall out, I’ll update. Oh! It came in a nice box which protects the journal from bending before use. ::Borat voice:: “Very niiiice.”

I just received my Bullet Journal so I cannot say anything about longevity. However, I love how this the paper is, there won't be bleed through with these thick pages. Which is important because I like to draw inside and use markers. The dots are even, there is no slant to them, which I hate when that happens. The dots are dark enough to see, but not in your face dark. You can write and draw, and focus on that instead of the dots, which is great. I love that the pages are numbered, however I do wish there were a couple of pages in front just for an index...although I can use the first few pages just for that. So that is a wish not a need. I got the magenta Fox with Butterfly...I love the color and the adorable characters. I definitely would recommend this...for now. IF I do have problems later with pages coming out or problems with the binding I will update my review.

I was looking for something comparable to Notebook Therapy and Archer and Olive brands, and this notebook checks all boxes and for a little more affordable and the fast delivery service of Amazon. SeQes has many pretty colors/designs to choose. The color of this one is true in my pictures which is a bit brighter orange than the coral I was hoping for. However sometimes it's fun to have something out of your comfort zone or that's what I am going to tell myself. I do like the embossed gold flowers and gold gilded pages. I like the fabric hardcover that is held with elastic band. It also has a secure elastic pen loop and two matching ribbon bookmarks. The paper is 160gsm light cream, from experience should hold up to all pens and markers without bleeding through. I believe paints would also work on this paper. The dot lineup across the pages which will make it easier to write and set up bujo spreads. Came packaged nicely in a box and shrink wrapped in plastic. In the box they included extra goods which I really appreciate. I love the grid guide-drawing ideas chart. Full sticker sheet, paper clip, and metal stencil bookmark which fit nicely into the back pocket of the journal. I’m really happy with my purchase! If you are interested in bullet journaling, mixed media, collage, or art journaling this will be a great contender or if you know anyone who does this would make an awesome gift!

the way it looks, the way it comes (+ stickers & markers), the paper... i simply love everything about it.

Bellissimo, sia come acquisto personale che come regalo. Carta bella pesante, adatta per il bullet journal.Pagine numerate, lisce, il colore scorre benissimo.

Overall, I’m happy with this journal, but there were a few unexpected quality issues on arrival. It came packaged in a small box, which unfortunately was damaged. The included sticker sheets were also damaged, the fold line has smudge marks, making some of the stickers unusable. The first page had also started separating slightly from the spine on arrival, which I’ve since glued to prevent further damage. Additionally, while it was meant to come with two ribbon bookmarks, they weren’t securely attached, so I ended up with two loose ribbons instead of functional bookmarks. That said, the journal itself is still lovely to use, and despite these issues, I’m happy with the purchase. Just be aware that the packaging and finishing details could be improved.

I was looking for a new Journal and wanting something a little different to my usual 1917, with thicker pages - the reviews for SEQES (HiQeng) journals said it was excellent for fountain pen ink not feathering, unlike a lot of them, and the cover colour looked lovely so I took a stab at ordering one - the pages are indeed excellent, the writing smooth and clear - not too happy with the cover though, although the finish is very nice, there's an annoying mark right on the front and several places where what looks like glue has been dripped and dried in little lumps. I would expect better for the price.

Das Notizheft habe ich als mein nächstes Bullet Journal gekauft. Wichtig war mir, dass die Seiten glatt und dick sind, so dass auch Brushpens und Fineliner nicht durchdrücken oder ausbluten. Diese Anforderung sind perfekt erfüllt. Die Seiten sind sehr dick, mindestens die angegebenen 160g/m2, wenn nicht sogar noch mehr. Der Einband aus Stoff fühlt sich sehr edel und hochwertig an. Dazu sind die Seiten nummeriert und die Ecken abgerundet. Am Notizheft sind außerdem noch Gummibänder zum verschließen und zur Aufbewahrung eines Stiftes. Auf der Innenseite der Rückseite befindet sich eine Tasche in der man Sticker oder Papiere aufheben kann. Das Notizbuch kommt in einer sehr edlen Verpackung. Unter dem Notizbuch selbst liegen noch 2 Stickerbögen und Textmarker Stifte dabei. Ich nutze das Buch jetzt erst einen Monat, bin jedoch immer noch sehr zufrieden und habe keine Mängel festgestellt. Der einzige Punkt, in dem das Notizbuch von der Beschreibung abweicht, ist, dass es nicht wie beschrieben A5, sondern minimal kleiner ist.
