Handsome portable flexibility, October 23, 2008
By write4fun&growth from Twin Cities, MN

Function:		5 out of 5
Quality:		5 out of 5
Style:		5 out of 5
Value:		4 out of 5

"As a person that frequently switches between right brain and left brain processing, I love the flexibility of using the circa notebooks! By using colored paper along with the white (varying the rule as well - current favorite is the annotated rule), I can call attention to parts of a project at a glance. I can do the same thing with the 3x5 cards.

When writing with a fountain pen I feel more creative and formal, but the former challenge was bleed through. I do not have that problem with the Levenger paper. Even my cheap fountain pen and ink could still be read on both sides! (I do look forward to buying a Levenger pen in the near future though).

In my opinion, the only down side is that the leather notebooks are a bit pricey for every project (although the quality is very good). With that being the case I plan to use the standard circa notebooks with clear covers as I work on the projects, purchasing the leather covers as the final "seal" on a completed project giving it the formal presentation the project deserves.

I would highly recommend this product to others and feel confident in saying its use is only limited by the imagination of the user."

PDA Size is great!!, August 31, 2009
By Kikibly from Danbury, CT

Function:		5 out of 5
Quality:		5 out of 5
Style:		5 out of 5
Value:		4 out of 5

"I have several different sizes of Circa notebooks and love them all. I do however, find that the PDA is the handiest for carrying lists in my purse because of it's convenient size. I fear Levenger is phasing this size out of it's Circa line as I'm not seeing new cloth or leatherbound notebooks in this size. I hope that's not the case because I really love this size and my daughter does also. Please keep the PDA size!"

Adapted for left handers!, August 19, 2009
By xplanted NYer from Winston, NC

Function:		4 out of 5
Quality:		5 out of 5
Style:		4 out of 5
Value:		3 out of 5

"I just got this and love the fold back but the disks get in the way of my left hand so i put everything in so the book opens left to right--like a book in Hebrew. I wish there was a steno pad slot in the cover or better yet a similar leather cover option for the steno pad. That really would solve the left-handed issue! This is expensive but I now feel organized in one place."

The Fabric Circa, August 14, 2009
By A from Deerfield Beach, FL

Function:		5 out of 5
Quality:		4 out of 5
Style:		5 out of 5
Value:		5 out of 5

"I have been a Circa user ever since they came out. I love it. However, I just bought one of the new fabric ones. The blue colors are beautiful, but when putting the rings on, one of the plastic holes broke. I have never had this problem with my other Circa notebooks, even the leather one I've had for at least 8 years. It is still in fantastic shape and I've changed out the discs on that one [to make it larger] several times. I also want to order a junior size, but I don't want that problem again. Overall though, I love the system. I can place different size papers in it, which is most helpful."

"The CIRCA Notebook (letter-sized) is the "go to" tool for meetings. The annotation section makes it easy to list "to do" items for later reference. I don't know what I did without it."

the system i've been waiting for, March 22, 2009

Value:		5 out of 5

"I initially resisted buying a Circa notebook because of the price. However, I finally broke down and I am so glad I did. I have a compact foldover notebook. I bought the Weekly Agenda Notebook and took out the first few months to put in my foldover. I made my own tabs, but everything else is Circa. I LOVE that I can take things out and move them around. I had several Moleskine notebooks before but the pages are static and that just didn't work for me. I've been using Circa since the beginning of the year and haven't come up with one thing I don't like about it. It is worth every penny. I just wish they'd open a store near me so I could go and ogle!"

Love it, except for one thing..., February 20, 2009

"The Circa products are absolutely fantastic - I love the paper and the variable functionality. Bought the fabric cover to make sure I liked it, then went to leather. I love the look and feel of the leather cover, but wish the leather was designed as well as the fabric version - with the pockets on the inside of the front cover instead of the back. Having bumps on the back cover makes writing less comfortable, so I can't use the pockets. Odd since the photo has the pockets in the front."

"I was so excited when my letter sized Circa notebook arrived only to be dissappointed in the fact that my initials were on the BACK cover and upside down.....and it wasn't caught before shipping? Great product, quality control is a little suspect right now for me. I'll hold off my next order until this one is fixed."
