I've bought four of these now. The first three were absolute 5 stars. Sadly, the latest one... less so, The binding broke after a few days, meaning a section of pages protrudes and moves independently from the rest of the book. The paper bleeds and feathers way worse than the others, and the cover has started to delaminate at one of the corners. Sadly all of this (apart from the feathering) only happened after I'd spent many hours setting it up as a half year Bujo, and a really cannot be bothered to start again, so I'm stuck with it now for 6 months. And now I need to find an alternative, because at this price, and with the level of inconvenience, a one in four failure rate is too high.

We're so sorry to hear about this. These are made in Japan and very high quality so I'm confident you shouldn't have this issue going forward if you decide to continue with this notebook for your Bujo system. We will reach out to you separately to arrange a replacement notebook to sent out to you.
