The classic Moleskine design and aesthetics have always appealed to me. The lay-flay binding, the integral bookmark, the elastic closure and the pocket in the rear all make Moleskine's extremely useful and versatile. But where Moleskine's have fallen flat in recent years is paper quality, which has been spotty at best; at worst, gel and fountain pen users have found the paper to be terrible, with bleeding and feathering major problems. I'm among the fountain pen crowd, and because of Moleskine's paper issues have had to look elsewhere.

I'm happy to say that this particular Moleskine has no paper quality issues. The paper is an off-white, smooth, 90gsm product that just loves fountain pens. Bleeding is non-existent and show-through is very minimal. I can finally write on both sides of the paper with my wettest pens. The difference in paper quality between this journal and the standard Moleskine sizes is like night and day.

If you've had problems with Moleskine paper in the past and don't mind the larger size, you are definitely going to love writing on this paper. It has become my journal of choice.

I sincerely appreciate the quality of Moleskine products. You should know what you are getting if you purchase one. They are light weight and the paper tends to be of good quality, but is mildly see through. If you want to use both sides, I would suggest pencil. I personally write in Pilot G2 .5 pens and they do not bleed through, but can be seen through the paper. I tend to use only one side for this reason, but bought the item for this. I use it as a creative outlet, for drawing and writing, and the A4 size paper, I believe 8x12, allows room for that expression.

Great functionality, again, the only drawback is the paper thickness, but it's part of what makes for the lightweight construction. It's a give and take, just know what to expect when you get yours. Recommended.

Having first come across the A4 "sketch" notebook, I was a bit discouraged as one of the reviews (helpfully) stated that the paper in the sketch was not the same as the"orginial" moleskine notebooks.

However, the "A4 Plain" does have that lovely smooth paper that I (and my pens) have fallen in love with over the years! I even used one as a wedding guestbook/album and it's fantastic.
