Lemome sells it almost only on Amazon. We couldn't reach a Lemome website, so the facts here come from the Amazon listing and public trademark records. ## What is it good for? **It's a sturdy everyday notebook for meeting notes, class notes and journaling, where you want the pen to stay with the book.** The elastic loop holds a pen on the cover edge, and the dividers let you split the book into sections, which most A5 hardcovers at this price don't offer. The 180 pages are fewer than a Moleskine Large's 240, so a daily journal fills it faster. Lemome warns that the wettest fountain pen inks may be too much for the paper, so gel pens, ballpoints and pencils are the safer match. ## How popular is it? **It's Lemome's best seller by far, with more ratings than most hardcover notebooks on Amazon.** On October 23, 2026, the listing showed 4.8 stars from 22,254 ratings, "100+ bought in past month", No. 21,513 in Office Products and No. 247 in Hardcover Executive Notebooks. Lemome's grid version had 3,700 ratings and the blank one 2,100. Amazon's review summary praises the look, the stitching and the thick pages, though a few buyers say the binding came loose. ## Lemome Thick Classic Notebook specs | Spec | Lemome Thick Classic Notebook | |---|---| | Size | 8.4 × 5.7 in (213 × 145 mm) paper size, per Amazon | | Thickness | 0.9 in (23 mm) | | Weight | 15 oz (about 425 g) | | Pages | 180, college ruled (90 sheets) | | Paper weight | Not published | | Binding | Lays flat at 180°, per Lemome | | Cover | Faux leather (natural cork option) | | Extras | Pen loop, elastic band, ribbon, inner pocket, page dividers | | Price band | $$ ($5–20) | ## How does it compare with Moleskine and Leuchtturm1917? **It's as wide as a Leuchtturm1917 A5 and wider than a Moleskine Large, with fewer pages but a pen loop built in.** ![Lemome Thick Classic Notebook 145 × 213 mm drawn to scale next to a Moleskine Classic Large 130 × 210 mm and a Leuchtturm1917 A5 145 × 210 mm](https://stationerytimes.com/images/lemome-thick-classic-notebook-sizes.svg) *The Lemome is 15 mm wider than a Moleskine Large and as wide as a Leuchtturm1917 A5.* | | Lemome Thick Classic | [Moleskine Classic Large](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/moleskine-classic-notebook/) | [Leuchtturm1917 A5](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/leuchtturm1917-a5-notebook/) | |---|---|---|---| | Size | 145 × 213 mm | 130 × 210 mm | 145 × 210 mm | | Pages | 180 | 240 | 251, numbered | | Paper | Not published | 70 g/m² | 80 g/m² | | Pen loop | Yes | No | No | | Price band | $$ | $$$ | $$$ | Moleskine and Leuchtturm1917 publish their paper weights and have long track records; Lemome costs less and adds the loop and dividers.

Lemome's grid notebook and blank sketchbook use the same 8.4 × 5.7 in format. A dotted alternative from another Amazon-first brand is the [RETTACY Dotted Journal](https://stationerytimes.com/guides/rettacy-dotted-journal/). ## Who makes Lemome notebooks, and where? **Lemome is a Chinese-owned marketplace brand, and it doesn't say where the notebook is made.** The USPTO lists the LEMOME trademark, registered January 31, 2017 for paper goods, as owned by Shenzhen LZB Gifts Co., Ltd. in Shenzhen, China. The listing is sold by Lemome, whose Amazon seller profile names HUAZERONG CO., LIMITED in Kwai Chung, Hong Kong. Amazon's Product information gives "Manufacturer: Lemome" and no country of origin, so we list it as not stated. ## How much does it cost? **It's in our $$ band ($5–20 per notebook), near the top of it.** That's below the Moleskine and Leuchtturm1917, which sit in our $$$ band, when we checked on October 23, 2026. ## Frequently asked questions ### How big is the Lemome Thick Classic Notebook?
