HOMESTEC Reusable Smart Notebook - A4, Black, 6 Page Styles, Endlessly Reusable Note Pad, 2 Pen, Self-Stick Notes and Wipe Included (Squared Grid Pages)

The Homestec reusable notebook is a great budget-friendly alternative to the Rocketbook, offering reusable pages and easy digital scanning for a smooth, eco-friendly experience.

What a fab product. Smooth finish - so lovely to write on. Eco friendly so can be used over and over again. I use it for taking dictation of confidential information so it is perfect for discreet removal of private stuff. My favourite part is when it comes to cleaning your work - either use a hairdryer and be amazed as the words disappear in front of your eyes, my personal choice as it makes you feel a bit 'magical' ha ha! or simply use the cloth provided, dampen a little and the words just wipe away. The cover is not so sturdy but I just use a flip folder behind it so is not an issue. The pens provided don't last for long but I also purchased the recommended pilot erasable pens which are comfortable to write with and which I am still currently using. Overall would highly recommend and think all businesses, schools and the like could cut costs by utilising this idea and as a double bonus would help in saving our planet too.

Can't fault this notebook for performance or value, it does it's job very well. My main issue is that cleaning the pages after use is a pain, and after several months of using it for meeting notes at work, I gave up. I make tons of notes in my job, and always scan them afterwards, so I was shredding a lot of paper. Started using this as a way of saving paper, which definitely works. Just got fed up with the cleaning pages as well as scanning. I now use my iPad mini with an Apple Pencil for notes, which is a game changer, no more page cleaning or scanning but it's an expensive option compared to this note book!

The pad works very well and cleans easily. I wanted to use the app to store notes etc. However the app is so rediculously expensive that I should have paid much more for a rival pad and then taken advantage of a free to use app. If you don't want to use an app this is a good pad. If you want to use an app think long and hard about alternative options and do some research.

I have a job where I make notes on anything at hand, sticky notes, pads, printouts literally anything at hand. At any one time I have a couple of pads on the go as well. I know that I am disorganised but my memory is also poor. So I thought, one pad to rule them all, might actually work and rather than using up many pads this might also be a great way to save paper, and eventaully money. First off the pad has a number of different planner type pages at the front, calendar pagem week planner, lists etc then normal ruled paper and some sheets of dotted grid paper, you also get a couple of pens, some sticky tags and a cloth. Of course the first thing you do is have a scribble and wipe it off. I was amazed at just how effortlessly the ink lifted with a very slightly damp cloth, and how pristine the paper appeared. The cloth only had to be slightly damp, not dripping or expelling water if you squeeze it and it works like a charm. Secondly the actual writing experience is pleasant, its got a nice pen feel to it, I have had better with some expensive notebooks but this is a proper pen on paper feel. I think this is a properly good product. So impressed that I ordered a second for my wife, she is very prolific at taking notes for her job but far more organised than I am, but she is also impressed and very happy that it's spiral bound so that it's easier for her to use as a left hander. Nice product.

Good Value for money and great for the environment. These smart books are such a good idea and have stopped me from going through book after book of paper notebook.The book comes with 2 pens and some nice little Post-it labels. You save so much time when you can just rub away completed tasks on each page. They are light and easy to carry around. I love the line pages and the scheduler at the front of the book.

If you have to take lots of reminder notes, as I do, especially when on the phone, and you don’t want to waste paper then this is brilliant.I write myself notes and then when they are no longer needed I can erase them. Really pleased with it

The manual says there are two ways to erase it:1. "Using a hair drier" - I don't have one and am NOT going to buy one for this purpose..2. "Using the eraser on the pen" - Seriously? That's just a bad joke. Erasing a whole A4 page would take you like 10 minutes, at least.To erase your text using the cloth they provided, an extreme pressure is needed and it takes a lot of time and effort. Also, the line the pen produces is barely visible as it's too thin and the ink is light grey in colour instead of BLACK.I would never ever recommend this product to anyone. It's nothing but a gimmick.
