I bought a hardcover bullet journal from Papier at the beginning of the year and am using it for this academic year starting this past June. I have been using bullet journals as my yearly agendas for about 5 years now and have used multiple leuctturm notebooks and an Ottergami notebook previously (both of which were top tier quality). I will, for my purposes, I will not be using a Papier journal again next year. The pages are noticeably thinner/see through and the hardcover is not necessarily built to withstand the backpack of a university student -- the corners of mine have been showing wear and deteriorating since probably a month or 2 into consistent use. That said, I do plan to keep using this bullet journal throughout the rest of the year, as it does the job well enough (which is saying something coming from a picky bullet journaler). I will say, I still love this website! Customer service, shipping, packaging, selection -- all incredible. Everything is so cute, and the products are great for both gifts and maybe other types of personal notebooks. Simply for my specific purposes, there are better quality/worth journals that will not physically wear down on you within even a year of use. (So I based my rating specifically according to bullet journal use comparisons)
