I watched this again because I really want to try a new planner. This won out of all the planner videos I watched. I watched a lot too. What tipped it over was the fact that they are not only in Cali, but they are not far from my city. So, thank you so much for your review Sarah. I so appreciate all your videos. They are so helpful.
Just a follow-up: I ordered the daily 7x9, and love everything about it. The quality is excellent, I love the cover texture, the layout is so practical, and their customer service is great. My planner was shipped quickly, too. I’m very pleased!
that's a wonderful follow-up to read! I'm so glad you're pleased, but I'm not surprised! It's a top-quality planner! Thank you for sharing your thoughts after receiving your order!
I ordered my planners thanks to your thorough review! Thank you so much for the discount code, they are just gorgeous! I cannot wait for them to arrive🎉
Well, let’s be honest, Eneyda…you and I can handle more than one planner, haha! Just kidding…I know it’s scary to make a switch like that! These are very nice. Top quality.
Sarah, I’m new to your channel and hit the perfect time! The Colibri “The Works” has such good household pages, I just used your discount code to try the daily. Thank you for the review and the code. Hope the new grandson arrived safely and happily 💛
Just ordered mine and I cannot wait to get it. I also have a preference for thick lixurous paper so I cannot wait to see my beautiful custom Poppy Planner
Their website states the paper is 100 lb Mohawk paper. I like the extra functional pages they include for budget and meal planning. It’s nice to be able to plan and track these all in one place vs multiple planners/notebooks.
I don’t have other social media you may have posted something there, but I’m just praying everything is ok with your dad!!!! Arwen says she is praying too. ❤❤❤
Dear Taylor and Arwen, thank you so much for your love and prayers. My dad went to Heaven on Tuesday, and I was able to spend weeks with him, visiting, listening to music, and praying. I wrote his obituary with my brother’s help. It’s a fun read I think! www.simpsonfuneral.com/obituaries/Marvin-Dennis-Reaser-Jr?obId=32825266
I am fairly new to your channel. This company is new to me. While i like all the extra monthly pages (budget, grocery/ meal, etc) what I DON'T like is for USA, a Sunday start on a monthly calendar SHOULD be a given. The weekly pages portion *should* be negotiable, , *that* part, most of us want a Monday start there, to keep weekend planning at the end.
@@BarbBColorReader welcome to my channel, and I agree that it would be lovely to have a Sunday start on the month view while having a Monday start on the week view!
Hi! I’m also fairly new and as an European, I hate Sunday starts (in my EC too 😅😅), can someone explain the reason behind having a Sun start and also, why it’s better for you? Just the tradition of having it like that or is there something else?
Great question! In the USA, monthly calendars ALWAYS have a Sunday start. Call it tradition, I guess, that is the USA. I know in Europe, the norm is Monday start. In planners, most will agree that in the weekly section, we like to see the weekend at the end. Many people work during weekdays, plan family stuff on the weekend.
@@BarbBColorReaderI’m responding from the USA. The reason would be because, here, Sunday is technically the first day of the week….If you ask anyone here to name the days of week in order, the response would be Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed., etc. This likely goes back to a Judeo-Christian background, with Creation the first 6 days of week (Sun-Fri), and Saturday, the 7th day, the traditional Sabbath Day of rest. For me, my monthly calendar must have a Sunday start, but for weekly views I prefer Monday starts due to the work week and so that weekend plans are next to each other. We all seem to have our own preferences, that’s for sure! It would definitely be nice to have the option in any planner to customize both monthly and weekly starts so everyone can choose. 😊
Lovely! Thanks. I think that your link and also your discount code are not working. Also, can you please tell me if the paper is a little bit toothy? It looks quite slick to me. Is it slippery to write on?

I’m actually considering switching to Colibri for 2025. Not sure yet. But it’s a fabulous quality planner.

I am using this for the 3rd year.
@@lorimcmahan5683 oh nice! I guess you are a pleased customer!

@@QuirkyGirlie oh wonderful! I think you’ll be very pleased, and thank you for using my discount code!
Beautiful planners. Love that Sunday start is available.
@@BrendaJones492 thank you for watching, Brenda!
I've been contemplating trying this planner. I've been using EC for a while though!!! SO the change makes me nervous LOL
Well, let’s be honest, Eneyda…you and I can handle more than one planner, haha! Just kidding…I know it’s scary to make a switch like that! These are very nice. Top quality.
@@PlanSarahPlan this is true 😂
You always give such great reviews. Both planners are beautiful, Have a bless day!

I hope it arrives soon and you have fun setting up your luxurious new planner!
What a fantastic planner. I’m new to your channel 😊 thanks so much for sharing. I appreciate the lined monthly 👍
Welcome to my channel, Vickie, and I appreciate those lines, too!
When time permits, could you check to see if the EC interchangeable covers fit the Colibri planner? Thanks!
They do fit!
@@PlanSarahPlan thank you so much!
Amazing review ❤ I have never heard of this company before, but they are absolutely beautiful.
I agree, Cindy! They are gorgeous books!
I love these. Thanks for sharing. Many blessings.
My pleasure, and thank you so much for watching!
I love those! I’ve never heard of that brand! Great features!
I think they are a somewhat new brand. So impressive!
Great review! Is there a way you can tell me the measurements of the columns in the hourly planner? Its 7x9 correct? thank you so much
Hi there! Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Yes, it’s a 7x9 planner, and the columns are 1.5” wide and 8” tall.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! ❤
So glad you enjoyed this review! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for such a thorough review! Those are beautiful and have now been put on my list for Spring of 2025 to look at for my next planner.
You are so welcome! I really enjoyed doing this video!

Ah! I knew it felt like 100 lb! Thank you for confirming, Angela. And I’m with you on liking the budget and meal pages being included. So nice.

I’m thinking of getting one when my current EC planner runs out. They are based in California.
I think you would like it!
Is it possible to get these with completely neutral guts? Beautiful planners!
Yes! They have grayscale available!
Can you tell me how thick the weekly is? I’m torn between the 2 sizes. Thank you.
It's about 1.1" thick, and the daily is about 1" thick.
Do the EC covers fit this one?
Yes! I just tested that. The Colibri cover is larger and covers the tabs. The EC cover does not. But it fits the coil well.

Anya, I just tried the code and it worked. Make sure there are no spaces and type it just like this: saraho’brien
Yes, you are correct that the paper is smooth. Not really slick, but very smooth.
@PlanSarahPlan thank you Sarah. Xxx
Discount did not work for me -said to use valid code.
Try to copy and paste exactly like this saraho’brien . It’s working for me. Thank you for watching!
Thinking about you and hope all is well.
@@donnadoverspike thank you, Donna.
