2027 12-Month Softcover Spiral Planner

This will be my third year using this planner. I finally found the perfect format that has the things I need and none of the extras I do not. I am able to use this as my singular work notebook to capture the highlights of my week, the things I need to do, and just enough space to jot down critical notes. Also the perfect size. Not too big, not too small. The spiral makes it more durable. The only thing missing is a page marker which I fix by tying a ribbon to the spiral.

I’ve purchased 4/5 of these and regretted missing out on it last year. It is, at least for me, the best way to (attempt to) organize my life. And the spiral is an absolute necessity. I’m often working with the planner in my lap, and a book bound planner makes that harder. Just one observation is that the paper quality is not what it’s been in the past. It’s barely noticeable, but I’m one of those people that has a thing about quality paper, and am fussy about my personal stationary, so I realized it as soon as I picked up the planner. It’s thinner and lighter, which could be a positive for some people, especially if they carry it in their purse/tote. So this is not a criticism, really just an observation, because it could be an important to someone. The layout and the way it’s organized is so perfect for me that a slight change in the paper — and it is indeed very slight; it’s still very good paper — wouldn’t put me off. If I had any criticism at all it would be we need more cover choices. If I’m not mistaken, a few years ago we had a choice of 3 or 4 different covers, and now if we want a 12 month spiral in this format, the hydrangea is the only design available. Fortunately, it’s a lovely design.; Oh, and I agree with another reviewer: monthly tabs would make it even more perfect!
