Love it so far!
I just received this, and I think it is going to be perfect for my needs. It’s spiral bound, so it has a small-ish footprint. The space for Saturday and Sunday is the same as the other days. There is a year at a glance calendar up front. Monthly calendars are next to each other. There’s space for weekly tasks, plus space to track projects and progress. I plan to cover up the actual times listed with washi tape, since I don’t have to plan to that detail. I can use a Pilot G-2 07, and ghosting thru the page is minimal. Also, I absolutely love that the printed lines and text are there, but seem to sit in the background so that my writing is front and center–it’s perfect for a minimalist, task-oriented approach to planning. And, perhaps most importantly, it doesn’t way a ton and it’s not huge and bulky. I commute. I tried a different planner in 2016, but it was too chunky and heavy to carry with me everyday. I tried a different brand size 8.5 x 11 at the beginning of 2017, but the binding came apart and it was really too big to carry every day. I’ve tried a LOT of planners and planning systems over the years, and I actually think this will work for me. Time will tell, but I’m already excited to buy another one for next year.UPDATE: 5.6.17 – This planner is seriously helping me change my life. I love the section for tasks and the weekly layout. I don’t use the time slots much, but I do list things that I did on any give day in those areas. I bought the 8.5 x 11 for work, and I don’t like it. It;s too big and not spiral bound. I can’t wait to order spiral bound ones for the new year. I am very picky about planner…I mean – extremely picky. I’ve tried to use them for years. I’ve tried bullet journaling in a all sorts of notebooks, and have tried a variety of planners. This – THIS – one gets my stamp of approval. Bless you folks for producing this. I’m getting my life back on track, and am feeling productive again in my personal life.

Best layout I’ve found!
I just received this planner in the mail today, but I’m already posting to say that this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’ve tried so many others and the layouts weren’t right for me. I LOVE the page that shows the entire year, every single day in a spreadsheet shaped format. That’s hard to explain, but it’s perfect for me to write my business sales for the day. I’ve been using several different planners/calendars/task lists and I’ve wanted to consolidate them. I also love the week view that has room for appointments again in almost a spreadsheet view, but then it has several places for “weekly” tasks. I also am glad that it has the elastic around it, which will keep it from opening up and wrinkling the pages inside my purse.I do have to agree with the other reviews that it is a bit cheaply made. The cover feels more like cardboard than what I’m used to, and the print is a little hard to read but I can live with these things. Some reviews mentioned the pen holder being too small, but mine feels just fine.And I’ve already spilled coffee on it. Welcome to my world!

Ok for the price, maybe ok for students, not for a working professional in my opinion
I thought this offered both daily and monthly views, but it only offers a “weekly” view, which I thought should have been made more clear in the product description. The only thing I had to go on was the .jpg images of the pages which were too tiny to fully see, they looked like my old Franklin Covey daily pages so I ‘assumed’ (my bad, I should have asked first) that what I was seeing were daily page views, nope, just weekly. On the other hand, because this is spiral bound, the book would be pretty heavy to carry around if the entire year were in there with daily page views. For $20 its the best I could find. On the plus side, there is a column for appointments, and a column for “to do” lists, easy enough to carry around, good size, quality covers and binding considering its spiral bound. Down side, no daily view pages, can’t remove or insert new pages due to lack of ring type binding, monthly view pages are too tiny to be useful at all and pages are very thin/see-through (ie. can’t use dark ink on these pages). Forget about the goal planning pages, worthless.

I like the layout of the planner and how it helps …
First time buying this planner. I like the layout of the planner and how it helps you stay on task. However, I doubt that I will be purchasing this planner after this year unless a few things change (or as previous owners have said return to the way they were).[1] The FONT SIZE is SMALL. It’s needs to be a little larger for ease of reading.[2] The FONT COLOR is a DARK GRAY. If the paper is not going to be white (it’s bone color), then you should go back to black font. The colored paper mixed with lighter font makes it difficult to read.[3] DAILY COLUMNS (aka THE BUCKET) are way too narrow. I see now the problem created when they decided to give Saturday and Sunday their own column (vs having them split a column in the past) If your writing is slightly larger than SMALL (like me), you are going to have a problem with these narrow columns.[4] MONTH VIEW – I would prefer for you NOT to put every holiday (US, UK, CAN, Christian, Jewish, etc) on there because I would like room to write what I need in those spaces. You did the same thing for the YEAR VIEW (from cover)[5] YEAR VIEW – The same problem here are the MONTH VIEW.The concept of the layout and how it keeps you on task is great, but the above issues already has me looking for my 2018 planner. From what I’ve read from customers who’ve used this planner for many years, these new changes were introduced THIS YEAR. Hopefully, they listen to their customers and go back to the way the planner was. If not, I’m definitely an ONE TIME PURCHASER.

It has everything I need for a planner. The materials are good quality– it has a professional look. The lay out is great– i love that it has a yearly and monthly view as well as a micro management tool of diary section for an hourly breakdown of your day. I would have given a 5 but for the small space for the hourly section but I can live with it as there’s ample space for tasks to execute, general goals and projects and the extra delegation portion if you’re in an office setting. The notes on general goal-setting and attitude/values assessment are certainly icing on the cake. Overall good value for money.

Very nice planner that enables one to plan on a detailed and broad level. The sections for longer term and shorter term planning are a very good idea and fosters longer range thinking. The only minus is the fact that the section don’t have enough space to add detailed notes which is a bit of a shame. However, this is not enough to detract from how good a planner this is. I’d recommend the planner.
