I didn't look very well at the sizes. All notebooks are pocket size, give or take a few inches. I write a lot of notes for things, so I enjoy using them. I'm getting a good feel for each brand and they are perfect for testing out new pens and inks. Solid collection.

I really like the variety given and am enjoying writing in all of them and will be ordering more notebooks!

Finding the best notebook that fits your needs can be a daunting task. This would help A LOT. I had fun testing a very nice range of notebooks. now I know what to get for my next notebook haul.

I bought this because I wanted to find the right combination of paper, ink, and pen for my left-handedness. It was a great and economical way for me to try out various papers without ordering them individually.

Thank you

New to FP I wanted to try out different papers and this was a great way to do it! Now I carry these little books for field notes as well as for ink tests. Great way to try new paper.

I’m so glad I got to try all the different papers. I’m new and I didn’t know how different inks react with different paper types. Tomoe River was my favorite.

The Goulet Notebook sampler is a fine way to test a few of the most popular fountain pen friendly papers without committing to an entire journal. It consists of an array of smallish-sized “pocket” notebooks covering a wide spectrum of paper qualities from very smooth to more toothy and absorbent. It’s a fine way to narrow your search for ideal paper.

No complaints here! Great selection of high quality paper.

Fun. Always prefer to write lists and notes with fountain pens though I know I can use iphone. All good papers, most of which I use in large form for morning pages writing. Mist have no bleed through.

I remember being overwhelmed with paper choices when I first started getting into fountain pens. This is a great buy for anyone who wants to sample different brands.

Great sampler!!!

This is a great and affordable way to determine what type of paper works best for you.

The notebooks were much smaller than I expected. I actually laughed when I opened them - smaller than cents-off coupons.

My husband and I are having fun trying different fountains pens on the different paper. We are looking for the best fit!

I wasn’t sure which paper I’d like best, buying this pack was easy on the wallet but also let me try all the major paper brands.

If you havent used a higher quality paper before, these are a great choice! Plenty of variety to get you in the right direction.

Awesome way to test paper for different nibs and inks

Nice selection of various brands of paper in a very useful memo pad size.

The notebook sampler set represents a great variety of the smaller notebooks that Goulet offers.

That's the question I asked myself before I finally bought the Sampler Package Set. I tried them all and found my favorite (actually two of them). It's important to have the right paper for ink pen users to acquire uniformity in your writing. In this case, I also found the size that fits my pocket. I appreciate the ability to try before I buy and will order many more of my choice in the near future.

I was curious about these types of papers as I've never used them before. The sampler sated my curiosity and I will likely buy larger sizes soon.

This was very useful to try out multiple papers with my fountain pens. I usually buy square grid paper, but I found I really like the dot grid. I will now buy some larger notebooks with my favorite papers from the set

I love the variety of the type of papers I get since I am new to the fountain pen and ink world. It's definitely worth it. It

So far it's been great, the little notebook are awesome, I still need to go through 1 or 2 to decide my favorite but it's looking good

I give it a 4 star because even though it claims all the notebooks are fountain pen friendly, the Apica one had a very poor behavior with my wettest inks, like literally lots of ghosting, like the one you get with copy paper and lots of bleed through, no sheen from my super sheening inks, but works ok with dry inks, loved the Mnemosyne and the Tomoe river one, the clairefontaine is ok, some sheen and no ghosting, the Rhodia is ok also medium sheen and no bleeding or ghosting, the Travelers is ok, little sheen and no bleeds, but not exiting either, by the way the Clairefountaine one was the most smooth of all, loved the softens of the paper

Nice sample pack to see what paper works best for you.

After watching reviews, I thought I knew the paper I wanted but after writing on them my opinions completely changed and I'm very glad I tried them before buying a full notebook with paper I wouldn't have liked.

For the price, this was a decent selection of pocket notebooks to try. I ended using them for different tasks: grocery list, ink sampling, currently inked, EDC, and monthly and weekly calendars.

I bought this sampler set to try out inks on different types of paper. I used quite a few different types of inks that were 'problems' in my Leuchtterm notebook. It gave me a good overview of which inks could be used on which papers. I only needed a few pages of each notebook for testing. So the rest of the pages will be dedicated to work duty. All in all a great sampler set that helped me to decide which notebooks I needed to buy and which ones I needed to ignore.

With these samples of paper I'll be able to decide on what larger quantity and size of paper I would like to get.

What a cool little bundle of different notepads! I had a lot of fun trying out my different pens on the different papers. It's opened my eyes to a whole new world of really nice paper! Out of the whole bundle, the Rhodia and the Mnemosyne ended up being my favorites.

I'm starting clinicals for a paramedic program. These notebooks are great to keep in my traveler's notebook (passport size) to keep track of dates, times, patient's, etc!

Nice variety of paper, ruling, and binding styles. Will greatly aid future paper purchases!
