MENORAH - Artist Sketchbook-A7-180gsm - Drawing Notebook, Handmade Hard Bound Notebook -100 Pages / 50 Sheets - Pack of 2 (Landscape & Portrait) - Black

Very thoughtfully built product, you can open the page completely without hurting it's binding, the pages are thick to use for most kind of paintings/sketching, very neat design of the book overall, although I could use some flamboyant book covers. I love it a lot, thank you :)

The pages are of good quality and thick. Good for sketching and also for little watercolor. The pads give out a nice classic look.

Great

Okay so this review is based on using multiple sketchbooks over the years. So I wanted a sketchbook that would be just pocketable and menorah just kept showing up every time I searched for an a7 size sketchbook and honestly there ain’t much available from any other brands. I was excited to see so many positive feedback’s from the fellow reviewers on this sketchbook that I had to try it out myself so I ordered one and to my shock, they took more then 2 weeks to get the damn sketchbook delivered after I canceled the previously ordered lavender cover sketchbook of the same type which was suppose to be delivered in 4 - 5 days for the black one which was only available later in the stock and since there was no replacement option I had to take the step - to cancel and reorder before the product was dispatched of course. The binding and stitching is honestly of cheap quality. There seem to be air gaps along the spine which is visible and the signatures keeps wobbling around and seems flimsy enough to be easily pulled apart. The papers as advertised as so called 180 gsm is also thinner then the brustros 160gsm ones. They are only okay for causal doodles for inking only, maybe for one or two light washes of watercolours even, other then that it does not really serve the advertised mixed media works. The zen sangam, the one I am currently using for my daily sketches although not pocketable is a far better option in quality if the size and mixed media work does not bother you. The elastic band is the only thing that I really liked about the menorah it’s nice and firm, so maybe I’ll use this up for daily note taking. Also it’s pricier for what it’s worth. I’ll only buy it next time if the note taking serves well. - Peace ✌️

I like the product❤️ both sketchbooks are cute. I haven't started painting on these, i hope they will turn good.
