Side by Side Comparison of: Mead

Works for what we needed

have ordered beforewould order again

I have always loved mead products and have been using for years

Great product. No issues. Great price too! When you have three kids going back to school its great to buy in bulk and then divide. Love it

The pages don't catch and they are the perfect length for notes/homework for one course per semester. I even have one dedicated to using for scratch paper in my math class that doesn't let me use a calculator.

I love the colors. I receive exactly 12 notebooks. However one of them came with pages, the front and back cover, it did not come with the little wire in the back to hold the pages with the front and back cover. No big deal, I can use it for brain storm school work. But be careful not everyone will except that. After that everything is perfect. Can't wait to use one of them tomorrow for class.

What can I say, they're notebooks. I won't say their great, but their not bad either. I would give them five stars, but due to the packaging a few of them got damaged. I'm still keeping them and I use them for school, but three of the notebook had annoying creases down the middle, so I just had to deal with that little annoyance.

Overall, good quality. Only annoying thing is accidental tear outs of pages.

These notebooks were exactly what I was looking for. Low cost, high quantity, perfect for taking notes.Have you ever waken up in the middle of the night covered in blood when a rush of memories hits your mind on the events from last night? This happens to be constantly but I always ended up forgetting as these memories disappear really quickly.However... enter Mead College Ruled Spiral Notebooks and our problem is solved! As soon as I wake up covered in blood, I know immediately to grab my notebook and get to writing. Taking my plume out and ink set, I start writing page after page of everything I can remember.

This product is decent, however, I was actually hoping for NON-PERFORATED pages. The site clearly states that these are non-perforated. Every other company that uses micro-perforation and now mead does. Why? The problem with perforation is that even if you don't intend to tear out the pages, over time, they tear anyway because they think everyone wants to do that. On the flip side, they are good regular notebooks, nothing fancy, which is what I like. They get the job done and the paper quality is pretty good, I just really wish they would go back to non-perforated versions. Please let me know if you know where to get those kind, that would be greatly appreciated.

their fine, spiral note books for the mssive note taker contractor.

The item arrived on time and was as expected. I think the price is a little expense. You can get this product in normal stores around back to school time for about half the cost.

Pretty nice but wires bend easy making pages hard to turn.

Nohting to add.

Very cheap quality - somewhat waxy coating that makes it hard to transfer pencil if that's what you prefer to use. I prefer pen so it wasn't that bad for me. Work in a pinch but nothing to write home about, also wish they could have been 100 pages instead of 70. And, yes, in SEPTEMBER you can find the cheap notebooks with college ruling in stores for a better price, but in my experience finding them in the springtime is much harder.

This is a standard, nice quality notebook. The only issue that I have is that the binding is very small, therefore the pages don't always flip fully or easily.

These are okay, but overprices compared to Office Depot brand equivalents. The reason for only 3 stars is that the lines on the pages are so faint to be almost invisible. I've put these aside after buying at Office Depot and will use them as backup/last resort.

I buy these for my boss, who specifically asks for UNPERFORATED notebooks, because he wants the pages to stay in the notebook forever. These have been the best for years, but the pack I just received ARE Perforated, with a little logo saying "NEAT SHEET(R) perforated pages". They have the same product code as the old ones, but now they are perforated like every other notebook in existence. My boss is going to be really unhappy.

The colors I received aren't the same as the ones in the picture, but the quality of the product is good.

The wire spiral is cheap, one of my notebooks came halfway bound with the rest of the wire sticking out dangerously. I guess there's no quality control? After using a few for school, I found the pages are longer past the spiral part than I'm comfortable with, this makes turning the pages hard and annoying. The pages basically bunch up when you're trying to turn them. It's a mess and I actively have to straighten them out and turn them with more care than normal. Annoying.

Very poor quality, paper is thin and flimsly. Paper cardstock covers.

These notebooks stop opening and closing properly within the first week of using them and they cost somewhere around $2 a piece when you can get them for less than one dollar at most places. Highly recommend making your way to the nearest CVS before buying these cheap pieces of garbage.

Not as specified in the picture. These only come in 3 different colors where as it shows 6. Teacher requires different colors, this shows 6, but comes as 3. Disappointed.

Very unhappy these were supposed to be non perforated that's what the description says but they are. Not what I wanted. Will not order again. Very unhappy.

not in good condition

Half of them were wide-rule.
