Field Notes Steno Pad

Fiel Notes Steno Book llegó días antes de la fecha programada, en su empaque de plástico transparente original y dentro de una bolsa de Amazon, sin daños durante el transporte y con amable atención del transportista. Es tal como lo describe el vendedor. Ha superado las expectativas por sus materiales de gran calidad, su agradable aspecto y porque escribir en él es una gran experiencia. Sus hojas son lo suficientemente gruesas. Vale la pena cada centavo invertido. Lo volveré a comprar.

My favorite book. I’ve been getting these for years. Pen fits in the top which I like. The cover is thicker than a normal steno which helps it to keep its shape in my bag. Standard steno size which is easier to carry than a larger notebook. Has the normal amount of pages you’d expect. Price is a little higher but the function and sturdiness supports the higher price.

If your search for thick paper top spiral bound steno pad has lead you here, this is what you want! I did that years ago and have never looked back. These have thick paper and a hard cover. One of the best features is that you can prop it up like an A-frame next to your computer and type at eye level. Other steno pads would just fold and fall over when I tried that. We also use the entire page and overtime time other brands would start curling at the bottom making them hard to use after you’ve been using them awhile. Not these field notes, they’re perfect. If you need to use it regularly and maybe even ruggedly, this is your pad! It’s just as rigid after a year of daily use as it was when new. The pages are the perfect thickness, they do not bleed through to the other side with any type of pen except a sharpie. Due to the info we document, we must archive and keep these for several years even when they’re filled up. It’s nice to know that if they ever quit making these, we can put a big “X” on the front cover, flip it over and start using it again with the opposite side of the page like it’s a brand new pad. We don’t do this now, because 13 bucks is reasonable enough for us to just use the one side of the page. But in a bind, we could just start over by just turning the pad over and use the back cover as the new “front” cover. Awesome product. The company truly realizes that the little things are exactly what customers are looking for. Such as stiff covers, and thicker pages. Sure, the cheaper stenos are great for certain usage, but if you’re frustrated with the paper quality or not being able to A-frame for using them next to a computer, you definitely need these!

First quality product. Paper does not bleed when using a fountain pen.

I have various notebooks scattered throughout my house and travel bag, and I love having the Steno pad open in my living room for quick access and handy reminders. I use this pad differently than I do my other notebooks, and I started enjoying the Steno pad more once I found it's place in my home (or however that manifests for you). Although it's kind of a hip-brand, which I know can be a turnoff, Field Notes really does make the highest quality notebooks available. The paper is sturdy and does not let ink run, the back and cover have a great weight and feel, and the dimensions are perfect for this type of notepad. As with all their products, everything is meticulously designed and thoughtfully constructed. Just be aware that it is larger than their normal notebooks, so it's use and practicality may differ from previous experiences you've had with their products. I consider this company to be the absolute best at what they do, and the steno pad is simply an extension of their top-notch product line. PS - check out the insides of the covers... always a treat.
