Customers are mixed about the page thickness. Some mention that the pages feel thicker than the Moleskine paper, while others say that they are thin. The paper has excellent ink hold-out qualities, and the elastic holds it closed. However, some customers mention that because of the thinness of the pages, most pen markers and pens will not work well. The hard cover is made of paper, so the spine will peel up from use.

Replaced my Moleskine at a fraction of the price.

Replaced my Moleskine at a fraction of the price.
I am a daily journaler, and had been using the comparable Moleskine for several years before trying this to save money. With the rate I go through journals, it makes sense to get something less expensive. I was worried that it would be much worse quality, and that I would regret trying to go for the cheaper option because I wouldn't love it as much. And yes, the Moleskine is higher quality, but this one is not far off, and I have now repurchased several times.The major differences are: the Amazon journal's covers are slightly thinner and less sturdy. If that's important to you, the Moleskine is better for that. The Moleskine also has better page binding and lies flatter. The Amazon journal's pages are thicker than Molsekine (without being overly thick). The Moleskine pages were actually pretty see-through. I could always see my writing from the other side of the page, which isn't great. That's still the case for Amazon, but to a lesser extent. I wouldn't want the pages any thicker than they are, as I don't like the feel of thick pages. The lines on the Amazon's pages are a little darker. I prefer lighter lines, but it's not a huge deal to me. Another little flaw, on some (not all) pages of the Amazon, the lines are not lined up on the left and right pages, off by a millimeter. The Moleskine is more consistent. They each have the same number of lines per page and rule width. They both have a similar page separator ribbon, but in different colors.
