Orange Circle Studio 2020 Do It All Magnetic Wall Calendar, Abstraction

I bought this 2018 Orange Circle Studio calendar. Last year I purchased the Wells Street by Lang "mom" planner calendar. Here's my comparison.Orange Circle is better for my needs...* Lighter and shorter - I place my calendar on a metallic painted wall. Neither calendar sticks on it's own with the magnet provided because the wall needs a stronger "earth" magnet. But, this calendar doesn't require as many extra magnets (which are annoying to remove and replace when I do multiple updates and flip the month). Hint: when done with the calendar, keep the long "clip" magnet for future uses.* Notes section - I like the notes column that extends the length of the page. I use it to jot down notes I want to see - but don't necessarily have a set date assigned.Orange Circle doesn't work as well for my needs...* This calendar is shorter, and therefore has slightly smaller family member lines. The "mom" line is pre-printed and bigger than the rest, whereas the Wells Street version has a larger top line (not family member specific). I would prefer that all lines were the same size.* My biggest complaint is that the pre-printed holidays are typed at the bottom - in the family member lines, which is super annoying when my kids have an activity and I have to write over New Zealand's Labour Day. On the Wells Street version, the holidays are typed in the top "non family" space, which works better.* The pages are thinner. While this helps decrease the weight (good for my magnet wall), I had to give up the Sharpies. I previously used a different color, fine point Sharpie for each family member. Sharpie bleeds through on this calendar. I prefer the look and ease of using Sharpies, but I had to switch to ball point pens.With cost being about the same, I will probably stick with the Orange Circle primarily because it stays on my magnet wall better. My youngest's gymnastics classes will simply have to fight for space with Japan's Health and Sports Day.

I have 4 kids an 18 yr old, 11 yr old, 3 yr old and 9 month old. I have owned different mom organizing calendars and so far this one makes the best use of space. I love that I can dedicate a line for each individual member of my family, and not have to write the entire name, taking up valuable space. My children go to different schools and are several yrs apart. The stickers help because I don't have to write anything for things such as No school, holidays, birthdays doctor or dentist appt. Except for the time and such but, that's it. I love that it has a magnetic strip on the top back of calendar to attach to your fridge, It also has one towards the bottom. It has a clip feature to hold the pages when you turn to the next month and holds it there. The pocket is useful to hold the stickers and Dr appt cards and a pen. The BEST part for me is that it has the whole right side dedicated to notes. It's perfect because Sometimes I can not fit all the info on the space for one day. We are so busy some days and have multiple activities in one day for multiple people at different times and places. For example, One kid has dentist appt, 2nd kid has after school program at school, other kid has practice, I simply put the appropiate stickers on the line for each kid. Then on the notes I write down all the details such as time, adresses or reminders like bring snacks for the team or pick up 4:30pm

I love how this has a strong magnet to hang it on our metal back door. I’m able to hang it in what used to be a non-functional space.UPDATE:I ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE COMPANY VIA FACEBOOK ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO INQUIRE ABOUT THEIR PRODUCTS. EACH TIME, IT SHOWS ME THEY HAVE SEEN THE MESSAGE FAIRLY QUICKLY BUT **THEY DO NOT RESPOND.**I could understand if it was three sequential messages within a few minutes of each other, and they miss it, but these are SEVERAL DAYS APART.POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE.I am now looking to order my 2020 calendar. I have had this Do-It-All calendar for the past three years and LOVED IT. Everything was the perfect size, it hung on the back of the door with the magnet, nice heavy paper, pocket...THIS YEAR—YUCK!! Why do they all have big Notes section on the right? Now all boxes are smaller Also, ALL the calendars have gray lines through the boxes!Now shopping for a different brand I guess. :-(

Love this calendar and have been using it for several years now due to the large calendar blocks and pocket at the bottom. It was especially helpful a few years back to keep track of my son's activities when he was younger as well as my schedule and responsibilities when I was in grad school. They changed the design this year and added a small flap on the side where you can write family members names to correspond to what's on the lines in each calendar block. I don't personally like this feature so I just cut them off. They also added a narrow section for notes along the right side of the calendar, which is nice. It makes the calendar blocks slightly narrower but it's not really an issue.

I have used this calendar every year for over 5 years now and can't get enough of it! I love the design that makes a room feel more homey. It also makes organization so easy! I can easily list multiple activities on a single day if necessary. The stickers make it very easy to remember appointments and lunch dates. Buy this!!!

This calendar is fantastic. Our old family calendar is usually hung in the hall but because of where it is I dont really look it at it which defeats the point and why I set out on a search for a magnetic one that could be placed on the fridge and I would see every morning. I love that the names are written on little side tabs so that you dont have to write them on for every month like I did with my old one. The top magnetic strip that holds the pages up is really sturdy and the bottom magnet holds the calendar still its a really good design. Handy pocket at the bottom to store pens/recpeits etc The stickers are pretty americanised so half of them arent relevant to us as a family in the UK but that's the only minor gripe. I will be back to buy the next one in December 2020!

Easy to use and plenty of space to write notes on. Would recommend

2nd purchase. Expensive for what it is but stays put on the fridge!

We have this calendar every year and our busy family loves it

I was dubious bu the Magnets holds it on the fridge no problem at all. Plenty of room to write in boxes
