The Amazon one is sturdier. I heard that older moleskins were better but this is my first so idk. I use a fine to medium fountain pen and I prefer the paper in the Amazon notebook. **Q: Is the paper fountain pen friendly?** A: Reading responses from 2 years ago and want to update. They must have started off using better quality stock than they do now. This paper is NOT fountain pen friendly. It is very thin. Even if you tried to put a spare sheet behind the page you’re writing on, it’s still going to bleed through the back. So you won’t be able to write front-and-back on every page. Hopefully that makes sense. I’ve used a lot of different types of paper and honestly, this is literally (not misusing that word) the worst paper in a notebook that I’ve purchased in at least the past 20 years. **Q: Will sharpies bleed through?** A: Sharpies are alcohol ink and will bleed through just about all paper. **Q: 240 individual sheets of paper or 240 front to back (so 120 sheets)?** A: 120 sheets. 240 when counting both sides. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by K***B on March 7, 2019* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***N on April 22, 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by N***H on March 18, 2026* ## Frequently Bought Together - Amazon Basics Classic Lined Notebook, 240 Pages Hardcover, 5 x 8.25-Inch, Black - KJV Holy Bible, Pew and Worship Bible Red Letter Edition Hardcover - Ribbon Marker, King James Version, Black (KJV Pew and Worship Editions) - Pilot, G2 Premium Gel Roller Pens, Fine Point 0.7 mm, Blue, Pack of 4 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/33542697-classic-lined-writing-notebook-for-note-taking-and-journaling-hardcover](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/33542697-classic-lined-writing-notebook-for-note-taking-and-journaling-hardcover) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
