Pen + Gear Twin Wire Bound Hardcover Journal, Solar Calculator, Multi Color, 5 x 7, 192 Lined Pages

I love this Pen + Gear Spiral Journal with a built in solar powered calculator! The design is so pretty! I love the bright colors, the paper is even lined in bright orange! It feels very durable. The front and back covers are nice and thick. The spiral is made well, it doesn't bend easily, and the papers don't get bound up or stuck when you turn pages. It has 192 pages. The paper is good quality, acid free, and I love that it is lined on both sides of each page. There is also a place for the date on each page. The built in calculator is a neat feature. It is great to have a calculator with my notes!

I use this little notebook and calculator so much more than I ever thought I would. Truthfully, when I first saw it I didn't really think about how much I would use the calculator and I actually got it because I thought it was so cute but I honestly use it quite a bit. Yes, as everyone knows, you could just use a regular calculator or even the one on your phone but when you're just taking quick notes, doing bills or even like me, using it for measurements while doing little construction projects around the house it comes in really handy. It's really nice to not have to find the calculator or even keep my phone on me while doing my projects. I'm so glad I decided to get this and I would highly recommend it for anyone! Super nice quality and kinda cool too..lol

This is a cute journal. It has a sturdy heavy cover for front and back, lined pages with a space for the date at the top. The color scheme is very vibrant with bright orange on the inside cover. It's got a very 90's feel to it. However I'm only giving this product 3 stars. I would say 4 stars for the aesthetic, but only 2 for the calculator function. The solar powered calculator is a feature I thought would be quite useful, but the buttons are not very responsive. I had trouble trying some simple calculations because the buttons wouldn't register that I had pressed them. Even turning it on or off isn't easy, I have to really press down hard to make it work.

The notebook is great. Hard cover, lined pages, a space to write the date. The calculator is extremely hard if not almost impossible to use. I tried opening the cover so that it was on a hard surface, I tried using a stylus, and I tried using it closed book with just my finger. Nothing worked and I was only able to complete a math equation maybe 1 out of 10 times. It also seemed like the numbers were misaligned, ie; when I would hit the 9 it would come up a 6. Overall it's a great notebook and horrible calculator. Therefore, I would recommend it as a notebook but not a calculator.

I love the solar calculator on the front, it really helps when working out my finances to have a calculator attached, It's made with great quality and I'm extremely satisfied with this product.
