Is the Penco Soft PP Notebook good for everyday use?

Yes. The flexible polypropylene cover protects the pages from wear and moisture, and the slim A5 size carries easily. It is built for daily notes rather than archival journaling.

How many pages does it have?

72 sheets, or 144 pages, ruled at 7mm. That is a moderate amount for a slim notebook, enough for weeks of meeting notes or class notes.

Does the soft cover hold up in a bag?

The PP cover bends without damage and resists water, so it handles being pressed against other items. It will not keep the notebook flat and rigid the way a hardcover does.

What paper size is it?

A5, roughly 148 by 210 mm, the common half-letter-ish size for portable notebooks. It fits most jacket pockets poorly but most bags easily.

No. It is a bound notebook with a fixed page block, so you start a new one when it fills. That keeps it slim and inexpensive to replace.

How does it compare with a hardcover A5 notebook?

It is lighter and more flexible, and the cover shrugs off moisture, but it lacks the rigid writing support and lay-flat feel of a hardbound book. Choose it for portability, not desk use.
