Nice notebook
Was only a little disappointed the rings did not hold the pages well. The bottom of the pages pull out even being careful with them. Too bad because the cover and paper quality are really nice. Maybe its just me, I give up om ring and spiral notebooks.

The moveable pages are much better than you would expect
The pictures are accurate, the description is true. You can move the pages multiple times without them tearing. I am on my third one of these and got my first one from this brand 3 years ago when the pages weren't removable. My current one has been in and out of my backpack for over a year, and I just bought a new one because I need more pages.

Perfect unless you use the pages
The concept of this notebook is excellent - who wouldn't want a notebook that allows you to move your precious pages around or even add more than it comes with, and still be able to fold the covers back when you need just a single page surface? I live in terror of using up a spiral bound notebook when I need just a few more pages for notes for a subject, so this is perfect. Ok, terror is a stretch. The paper is good, holding up to repeated erasing well, and it is an attractive object. However, if you turn the pages, or subject the notebook to normal note-taking use, they come loose very easily, especially at the tops and bottoms. The edges seem to be reinforced a little, but not enough to address the problem. It gets pretty annoying to have to keep stuffing them back in. I have been using paper clips to hold the top and bottom interior edges of used pages to try to keep them from flapping around (patent pending). I could also move each page to a clipboard and then put it back, or store the used ones in a folder, but really? If you use your notebooks lightly these might work for you. It is a solid idea and I hope this or some other company can make it more workable.

MiracleBind - a new and novel product!
This is a great notebook! I've long used preprinted day planners and note/journal pages in the common 5 ½" X 8 ½" ring bound size, as made by Franklin Covey, Day Timer and others. But I've always felt that, with a usable width of less than 5", those pages were not as wide as I would like. And ring-binding, while providing great flexibility in organizing and adding/repositioning pages, also added more bulk than I preferred.So I researched alternatives and found the MiracleBind products. This unique binding combines the slimness and lighter weight of wire binding with the repositionability of ring-binding. These notebooks are available in three sizes - the 7 ¼" X 9 ¼" is ideal for me, providing the added page width I wanted, plus a little extra height, and is much more manageable than larger size alternatives.The notebook includes a set of color-coded pressure-sensitive tabs which, in concert with the page remove & reinsert feature, enables one to set-up individual sections for separate subjects. It also includes a multi-pocket vinyl storage page (also removable & reinsertable), that's handy for small paper items like receipts, business cards and temporary notes.The notebook also includes ten telephone/address pages. I've replaced those with additional note pages as I carry contact info electronically, but others may find them useful. In addition, there are five sheets of "Notes" pages that are each micro-perforated into three individually removable Notes, with boxes for check-marks along the right margin of each line. They may or may not prove useful - if not, they can also be removed and replaced with additional standard note pages.The hard cover of this notebook is fully functional as is, but I wanted a leather cover. I couldn't find one that was the right dimensions for this notebook, but with internet searching I found I could have one custom made that fits precisely, for around the same price as a quality pre-made leather cover.My new day planner & note/journal system consists of this MiracleBind notebook, and an At-A-Glance #70-908-10 monthly/weekly planner refill, also purchased from Amazon (see separate review). Although described as 6" X 9", the pages of this planner actually measure 6 5/8" wide (not including the monthly tabs). This again provides the additional width I wanted, and a format that I like.I found a zippered leather wire bound cover at Franklin Covey that, although designed for their smaller page size, JUST fits this AAG planner, although with no room to spare in the width! (Note that Blueline also makes a monthly planner in MiracleBind, which is available on Amazon, should their format meets your needs.)Putting this all together took a fair bit of time to research, but I now have a system that addresses my specific needs MUCH better than those that I've used previously. I have two slim, leather-covered books rather than one thick one. All things considered, this is an ideal solution for me. (There's a video on MiracleBind products at the manufacturer's website, rediform.com.)

The "Miracle" Pages won't stay in the book
I purchased this notebook to use as a combination of daily planner, task list, and notes area. This meant moving back and forth to different areas of the notebook with regularity. After about a month, the pages in the middle section just started coming out of the book on their own and refused to stay put, no matter how firmly I attempted to press them back into place. I was working through my calendar and discovered an entire week missing that I found later on the kitchen floor, where the page had apparently just fallen out. The "movable pages" thing is a cute idea, but it just doesn't work if you're going to use this notebook all day, every day-- the pages just lose the necessary rigidity and won't stay in place. Very disappointing for the price-- I will go back to $2 Amazon Basics notebooks, which don't suffer from this problem or the higher pricetag.

It’s okay
The media could not be loaded. This item was easy to purchase and arrived as scheduled. The binder is sturdy. It does have organizational stickers which is nice but I wanted it for a password book and I don’t think this will work.

Good quality but wish there was a placeholder
Overall the quality is great and I appreciate the sturdy cover. It's easy to move sheets around, which I've already used (genius idea).However, here are suggestions for Blueline they next time they redesig these:1. Add a leather 'string' so that we can mark the page we're on, like they have in their regular notebooks2. I appreciate the back clear plastic pocket, but it would be nice if there was one at the front, too, to store odds and ends.Last comment: It's a bit pricey. Not sure I purchase this type often because of that, even though I appreciate the ability to move sheets. I will likely stick to the regular blueline notebooks if the price remains the same.

Elegant and efficient.
These notebooks are a joy to use. They are a bit on the expensive side but they are beautifully made, attractive and very practical. Insertion and removal of extra pages is easy and very practical. It’s easy to save these books and you really can’t beat the written word and hand-drawn sketches To review your notes and bring back memories. I have books going back a few years and the notes and pages are well preserved. The price on Amazon was competitive.

These notebooks fall apart - they are terrible
These used to be my favourite notebooks, but they have gone from hero to zero because the pages fall out as soon as you turn them. Blueline claims to have a "secret formula" that allows you to remove and replace the pages, but the pages never stay in, they always fall out! Forget the so-called "secret formula" and go back to the original version. Totally worthless and should not be sold here!

Good notebook
This is a standard notebook that is a great addition to any setting. I use this notebook for work and have never regretted it. The book is very well made and the stickers provided are a great addition to help highlight important issues or items. The books I have received are made in Canada, which is a great bonus.

Removable pages fall out
The pages are removable...which really sucks if you dont want to remove them. Pages fall out if you're not careful. Do not like this feature. If I wanted removable pages I would bought a notepad...
