Love all the girls that review the planners during launch, but you are ALWAYS the most thorough. Agree completely on that box- a nice top would have been amazing.
They cheaped out on the box and binder. I wouldn’t have expected that. Makes you wonder if they’re growing too fast and not paying enough attention to quality.
If you talk to EC company about the binder option, one easy way to fix your binder not closing is to put a hard plastic piece in the back that will help keep the pages where they are. Because they are using circle rings the pages get stuck in the back rings. If they used a D- ring, it would lay more flat naturally. I made binders for attorneys for years at a law firm, so that’s my useless knowledge I gained! Lol, but maybe it can help here. Thanks for the reviews and honest opinions!! Love EC.
That would help. However, the drawback to a D-ring binder is that you don't just turn the page, you have to lift the page up first then turn it...which isn't that big a deal, I guess😉
First thing I thought of was why didn't they use a D-ring. You aren't the only one! It isn't useless when you are constantly referring to your planner throughout the day! I use mine for work and had thought about the binder option so I could shove work related items and board meeting items directly into my planner without worrying I would lose them, but my OCD would win out against the O-ring vs. D-ring haha
They borrowed the box concept from Emily Ley, the new monthly summary page from The Happy Planner, and the hexagon sheet in the back from Plum Paper. So underwhelmed with this year’s changes, but the Mohawk paper keeps me coming back like the sucker that I am. This was such a well done review, thank you for taking the time to do it.
The hexagon thing is also a very significant part of the inkwell press and theirs has a specific purpose. EC just kind of threw it in there randomly lol. It just seems like a mashup of other planners but in the same... that paper sucks me in! Just still surprised they kept the coloring pages when I don’t genuinely know anyone that likes/uses them ? Maybe that’s just me tho 😂
You know... You can just buy Mohawk paper and print whatever layouts you want. I buy Mohawk via smooth in 148 GSM (100#), custom cut to a 7x9 size, and I print my own layouts. It works for me, and it might be something to consider if the only thing you really love is the EC paper.
You had to be the first planner review video I watched. I shared all of the neutral goodies and couldn't wait to watch your colorful review. :) Another great review, Jen.
Kay R.D. I am so deeply saddened by the half hour removal. What were they thinking. I am an appointment based worker as well and this.... They ruined my holy grail planner.
This confirmed for me that this year I am going to switch to a plum paper planner and just use my EC interchangeable covers with it. You just get so much more options for customization with Plum paper and for a much better price.
I think the paper quality is better in the PP too! I just like the layouts in EC and there's something intriguing about using the "original", I guess. There's something that keeps sucking me back in, but then I stick it on a shelf and use my PP, even though it's frustrating because all of the stickers are slightly off in size.
Cindy Carlson that’s how I am too! The wow factor of the coil and covers keep pulling me back into EC 😩 but then I don’t use it as efficiently as I would other planners. I am planning to get PP’s new daily layout, I’ve been waiting for EC to drop one but sigh, no such luck
Thanks for your honest review of all items. I understand they wanted to keep their binder proprietary with their inserts, but it would have been cool to have it fit a 3 ring binder, A5, or maybe Mini Binder, so you can choose your own binder cover. I know some of these options would mean changing the insert size. Having a binder without tabs means everyone will be pulling their rings open, which may cause gapping over time.
The Carpe diem a5 and the Filofax finsbury a5 fit a 7x9 page (and I don't cut the punched edges off either). There's some overhang in the finsbury, but it still closes just fine. Sooo... They absolutely *could* have done the universal a5 punches. Because yeah, that binder is a hot mess. And that ring setup is ridiculous.
I don't think that they will be able to fix the problem with having to pick up the binder and move the papers to completely close the binder. The reason you have to do that is the binder rings are attached to the middle part of the binder. All binders that have the rings in the middle has that issue as well as pages getting bent in the back. The only way for Erin Condren to fix that is to change the whole binder with the rings attached to the back cover. Which I doubt they will do before launch. I was really interested in buying the binder but now that I know that the binder rings are in the middle there is no way.
Or they need a page lifter for the back (like Foxy Fix has) but because the size is weird you couldn’t just buy one from Foxy, you’d have to wait until EC makes one and it’s probably gonna be $$$$.
I was thinking the exact same thing in regards to the placement of the rings. Why would they do that? They are a high end planner so use the high end features (we all know the cheapest binders have the rings in the centre).
I feel like they could have solved the half hour issue by having a light dot grid in the column - just half the size of the hour box. Then, easy to split in half, or ignore.
I have in previous years loved my ec hourly. I will not be using it for 2020 with the changes to the hourly design. I needed the half hour markers and bigger box. I literally use it multiple times daily. I'm so glad the ruler changed as I would go through several over the year and they almost always lost teeth immediately. I always wished there was some basic option. I have mo interest in the stickers, plastic pouch, or the perpetual calendar and absolutely no interest in a BOX! Function wins over cute so back to basic I go. I'm a sad gal. 😥
I’m sorry, but that box is going straight into the trash for me. The fact that we actually have to pay for it to get the planner is really annoying and I would rather have the vinyl pouch back. The worst part was changing the size of boxes on the monthly and weekly pages, so now all the planner sticker kits won’t fit. I kind of feel like it’s a slap in the face to all the long time supporters and the sticker shop owners who built their business while promoting the EC planner.
Vanessa Dugan yeah, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that we don’t get the vinyl pouch, but our price point goes up... and in exchange we get a flimsy box. I just... don’t get the justification.
I can't agree with you more! I really hope I can tweak the kits I've hoarded from sticker shops to fit in 2020. I have a feeling I'll need white out - to make it work. I'm most puzzled about why a rounded bottom box was included on the vertical weekly. I'm not a fan of that look, but that's just my personal viewpoint as someone who uses sticker kits! I'll be anxious to see how other sticker planners adapt!
I’m intrigued by the binder but with my past quality issues with EC I just have such a lack of trust that my rings wouldn’t come botched regardless of control. Thank you for the review I love that you’re so honest and thorough! 🖤
To be very frank....the binder option is not good and I guarantee that there is going to be a ton of quality control issues with it. They should wait to release it in until they can come up with something creative and well made. If they could come up with something like Day Designer does with their A5 size inserts and binders, I would love it. Imagine a quality filofax style binder with the fun and colorful EC inserts and it would be awesome.
A binder planner sounds really neat but I think I'm just gonna stick with the classic Life Planner for 2019-2020 and hope for improvements next year!! Thanks as always for a super insightful review - you make me really excited for ECLP's launch every year!
When I switched from an ARC system to EC, I missed the ability to move things around, add sections, etc so I was excited for the binder. But why would they choose those rings that NO ONE has a punch for? Smh. I’ll probably wait a year for them to work out the kinks before trying the binder.
I agree with Sarahr98998, why buy a binder when you cannot insert your own pages? For the past several years I have been pulling the coil off the EC, trimming the pages and then punching the pages using a disc bound punch so I can use the discs from TUL or Levenger. Disc bound gives you the option to customize; this binder does not. Maybe I will be finally switching to Happy Planner which is already disc bound for half the cost. . .
I used an hourly version this year and have often wished for more hours in the day. But I also use the half-hours all the time. I would have cut the blank space at the bottom of each day.
Jen I feel that you always have the most comprehensive planner reviews! :) You asked for thoughts about the hourly and I have been an hourly gal since it first launched and an EC through-and-through gal prior to that. I'm very disappointed in this year's updates. Re: the hourly, I always used the remaining blank lines at the bottom of each day (if I needed to) to give me basically up to 9 pm. So I didn't really need a longer day as others have voiced (I'd LOVE to see just lines vs. an hourly option!). I DO live in the half-hours though, so that missing formatting might sadly be a deal-breaker for me this year. I am not a fan of the shaded portion at the bottom of the weekly spread and in the notes section of the monthly spread either, and would have preferred it just have remained white. I'm also not a fan of the hexagon change instead of the blank box, though I don't mind the monthly calendar view in the weekly spread. I'm a colorful gal, so I do love the theme and the sleek look of this year's "year-at-a-glance" page. I also appreciate the added focus/goals page before the monthly spread, but wish the tab was still on the month view so you could open right to it. In the end, I wish I could marry the customizable aspect of Plum Paper Planners with the color schemes, themes, and scripted quotes of Erin Condren. I like the skeleton part of the EC updates, but really don't like the guts. As a homeschooling mom, I'm looking more towards Plum Paper for next year because it's very-nearly completely customizable for both a Life Planner and Homeschool Planner option, which is something EC doesn't currently offer. Plus, now that PP has also partnered with Mohawk Paper, it's hopefully going to give a comparable feel. But I'm sad just the same. As someone on IG put it, it's like a break-up that you knew was coming, but have been putting off until after Christmas. :)
My dream planner would be the same as yours except hourly with the half hour increments. I really dislike that the stickers coordinate with version of planner you get. I like my planner so I can decorate according to my mood which is sometimes neutral and sometimes colorful. So now I’ll be stuck with the neutral stickers because I don’t think I can deal with the colorful planner.
Thank you for such a great review!! I'll be getting mine next week to do a review. I'm loving the new design and the changes in the neutral. The box size change doesn't bother me, and I'm loving all the new accessories. Excited to hold it in my hand. Your reviews are always so great.
Right? You can buy the pouch separately (or reuse an old one) but it's pricey when you buy more than one planner. $6 each for pouch + the coil clip if you use them.
I always look forward to your thorough review every year on the new Erin Condren products. I am disappointed in the binder system, but love the coil bound planners. I usually get the colorful, but think I will be getting the neutral this year. Thanks for all of the info!
Jen could you do a video on your storage of your planners and what you plan on doing with them for future? For example, do you treat them like a personal diary that you don’t want anyone to see, or more a scrapbook of the year that you won’t mind sharing with your family as you get older x That’s partly why I’ve held off starting a planner cause I don’t know how to store or how much info to give, I don’t know it’s just food for thought
Beyond my FAVORITE video you do every year ❤️ I started using EC when I stumbled upon your channel two years ago. Great peek at the new planners and thanks for always giving your honest opinion!
Im truly sad... I loved last years version so much and this one is just so different. I had high hopes for the binder but... man I will have to keep in mind come December I need to look for a new planner for the year. Maybe 2021 will be better... thanks for your review as always I wait for yours first to watch. :-)
Great review Jen! Even though I'm a die hard ELSP user, I so look forward to this video from you every year! ❤️ Love the new design and hope EC put those monthly goals pages in the new deluxe monthly this year as well! Thanks for all your hard work! 👏🏻
Thank you for the binder review! I'm excited about the binder, but definitely unsure. I won't get a new planner until the end of the year, so hopefully they'll improve by then. I'd also love to see additional note or dot grid pages that could be added.
Again, Jen, you always keep it real, which I certainly appreciate! Totally agree with the points you have made. First of all, that box is so flimsy, nothing like the great box the pens come in. Loving the artwork on the cover, colors and cool kalidascope designs. And the pouch for the pens is a winner with me too! Erin Condren does make the best stickers, and always has in my opinion. Thanks!
I won Jen's $250 EC giveaway at a prior launch and it was like being a kid on Christmas again. Thank you for your candid, lighthearted and sincere reviews, Jen!
Thanks for this review! My thoughts about the binder were the same. Just seeing it I was a little disappointed, but like the concept and hope they can release something different later on.
Best review yet! Thank you so much for your walkthrough BEFORE going in-depth with your opinion. There is so much to digest this year. A lot of changes all at once. I am also an On-The-Go Folio user, too! (I use the daily along with my LP and it's my planner peace!).
I don’t know if it was already said, but the issue with the pages getting caught in the back is typical for ringbound planners. You could put a thicker card stock in the back to lift the pages when closing! BUT as you said, the punching is special and in my eyes that defeats the whole purpose of a ringbinder! What’s the point if you can’t punch your own pages!
I know there has been a lot of skepticism, but I really love the new design! I can't wait to order my ECLP and teacher planner! Thanks for another amazing review, Jen. You are always my first reviewer to watch because you really do a great job. So thorough and honest!
Ooh I love the new Kaleidoscope theme! It's stunning! My favourite is still the colorful vertical but the neutral tones are beautiful this year....might have to take a look again! I'm not keen on the shaded boxes for notes in the colourful at all but love everything else. Love the planny pack too and the pens. Not sure about the binder, I agree, they should invest in doing something like Kikki K or even like the on the go but with rings, that would be pretty. Thanks for sharing! Always look forward to your first look vid!x
i switch over to the happy planner this year and Im so glad I did. It's so much fun with really cute stickers. However Erin Condren Life Planner is too expensive and I feel like I'm not getting anything new or worth my money.
I agree with Loving the Happy Planner! Mambi‘ s quality seems to be improving each year while it looks like EC’s quality is diminishing. So sad to see. I don’t mind paying the extra $ if the quality is there but they went super cheap in the binder box and the new loose leaf binder cover. At least their paper quality is still good but I don’t like the direction they are heading. So unfortunate.
Love your reviews they are detailed and on point. Thank you. Now about the planner, I am so disappointed they eliminated the 30 min increments. I use them for my business appointments to keep me organized. I loved the EC planners because the coil and so colorful which is difficult to find for hourly planners. 🙁 Jen if you have any recommendations of a planner that still has 30 min increments for appointments please let me know. You are my planner queen and I found EC because of you.
Great video. As an avid eclp planner user I’m not loving the not so neutral color way. I select the neutral so I don’t have to worry about matching planner kits smh. I was also hoping for an a5 ish planner binder. Sad to say I’m going to look around this year and I don’t like the connection of the vertical boxes either nor do I like the rounded corners
I had a feeling this would be your next video :) I completely agree with your assessment on the ECLP this year. I will add, the kaleidoscope design reminds me of Elsa's big crystal snowflake in the Frozen ride LOL!! Hope to meet you at Go Wild!
I have always loved EC vertical. I am in Canada. The cost of shipping is as much as the planner (almost) and we pay a 20.00 CAN. tarriff on them. I love watching unboxing and just about cry that I can no longer afford to have a $160.00 planner! I do not like the binder, but do love the coiled vertical. I love your reviews. Real life, admire your thoughts.
I am liking the changes for 2020. Her paper is fantastic and now we're getting two additional pages each month! I like that we are getting a box, because I overstuff my planner, so it is an excellent addition. I would still have liked the plastic pouch to be included as that is how I carry my stickers. This is the first neutral planner that I am considering purchasing as I really like the look of those monthly and weekly layouts. I was excited when the binder was announced, but am a bit skeptical with the ring configuration. Excellent review as always. Thank you!
Thank you so much for doing this review. They are beautiful but I dont know if it will be big enough for me to run my ministry. I still want one though because your review was GREAT :)
I always look forward to this review! I love the colorful design this year. I agree that my ideal planner would have colorful extra pages (the quotes, etc.) and neutral functional pages. I’m also disappointed with the quality of the box. The sleeve looks cheap. A regular box top would have been awesome. Thanks for the preview!
I LOVE your reviews! I am SO glad you included the binder review, I had seen the sneak peeks, but now I know that I too, will wait a year to see how it all works out. BUT I am 100% on board with the colorful/vertical version. I DO love the boxes and I will buy extras so I can store past year's (Hoping I can mix it up between the colorful and the neutral as I have always struggled with how to store my past EC's. In 2018-2019 I did NOT go with EC but this year (2019/2010) I am coming back. I absolutely LOVE the pages before each month and for me, I actually LOVE the colorful sidebars and bottom sections of the weekly. and the accessories, the Planny Pack WILL be mine! Just saying! :) Thanks so much for your attention to detail!
It is also weird that the binder is in the woven pattern on the the inside instead of the new pattern. This is the same problem I had when I ordered the plain binder they used to have in the standard ring with pages and stuff getting stuck in the back
Coming from a previous EC hourly planner girl, I really don’t like the changes they made in the hourly planner!! I do love all the new accessories and the beautiful kaleidoscope design though! The box and binder do seem like fails... so hopefully they fix that!
Love your honest review. I feel the exact same way about the colorful "outside" and the neutral "guts". Currently considering buying 2 planners an recoiling them 🤔.
That binder is cheap looking with cheap construction, with a funky ring configuration. It's obviously done to make more money selling a separate hole puncher (hey it's business, but it will be viewed as greedy, IMO). When she first started, she sold the pages without any holes at all (as an option). You could punch the pages to match your own binder--it was great! I absolutely love both color schemes--the bright and the muted (cause we know it's not neutral). Great review as usual, Jen.
Thanks so much for your review! I buy 2 planners every year, one for work & one for home/everything else. Because of the changes they made to the hourly, I’m going to have to switch companies to one that offers hourly in a “not as pretty, but still functional” for me format, because my work planner is planner peace. I’ve never used anything other than an EC, aside from a brief stint in a TN, bujo, or Filofax before going right back to EC. They squeezed in 2 more hours, but with the addition of the thicker margin & date at the top & the thicker shaded bottom box, have actually crammed everything into a smaller planning space. Their own “event label” stickers are too big for the time slots. I’m also not getting an hourly for my personal planner because I don’t want to have to “make it work”, so I’m going back to the OG EC planner, the colorful vertical, because i feel like those changes aren’t as drastic. It’s extremely disappointing as a customer because I love so much about this year’s theme only to have it be “ruined” by the functional part of the planner. First world problems, for sure. 😂 I hope they offer an option next year for the original hourly layout. I think the binder is a joke, but I really hope the people who get one love it. I’m happy there is at least an option for it, even though I think it could have had better execution.
I love your honesty💕I totally agree 10 marker pens, sticker and pouch would be my favorite as well. I wish the binder were more like the Filofax 😜. Thank you for always being so generous and giving. Maybe it will be my turn to win. 🤞🏼you have been my inspiration to EC/planning. Thank you 💕I love it!!!
I purchased one and I stopped using it because I didn’t like calendars kept going to the other months not sure if I got a defective one was not to happy about it
Thank you so much for the video. I’m really disappointed in the binder. I was interested in it, because I liked the versatility of the disc bound system, but I’m definitely sticking with the coils. I don’t like the binder.
Thank you for the detailed video! I wish, instead of a binder or “system” which many of the planner companies put out, that they would just sell a5 sized inserts for Filofax or Kikki-K type planners. I could even deal with punching the pages myself. I have actually been uncoiling an EC planner for the past few years and trimming and hole punching the pages to put in my a5 Filofax. It’s the best of both worlds for me. I was so excited about the binder but of course they have the 8 rings already prepunched which won’t work for me. I could washi over the holes, I guess but that’s a lot of pages and a lot of washi! Ha. Anyway, I will keep on keeping on uncoiling. I do love the kaleidoscope design, very pretty.
Agree with so many of your points. The colorful neutral is exactly what I would want. This whole launch is honestly really disappointing. I really appreciate how honest you are!!!
I really love this years collection of planners, I just wish they would bring out a range that is more aimed towards male planners. Would be so good with some Matt and shiny dark greys, blues or blacks and greens instead of the foiled and floral/brightly coloured planners.
I am glad for your review. I agree, filofax binder would be better. Love the neutral. I am a newbie for Erin Condren and really think I would love it! Can't wait!😁😁
Thank you so much for giving a comprehensive view. I am with you in being disappointed in their binder system. I was hoping that we would have a choice of sizes and inserts-much more customization than with the coiled planners. I am really liking the neutral layouts and I am usually a colorful vertical gal. Thanks to you the 2020 planner will be the 5th year that I use an EC LP. You were the first person to introduce me to EC back in 2015 on UA-cam. I’m excited and hoping that May 6th will get here quickly!
Also I have one of the personal size Agenda 52 binders from HL and the papers in the back do the same thing. I have to scoot them forward for it to close right.
I should have watched your video before purchasing! I have used the hourly and works well with my work and family schedule. I'm super frustrated to see they took out the half hour line. I would not have gotten this layout if I would have noticed when purchased. My fault for not looking into the changes. With the price increase I will need to look at other options out there. I have always loved EC, the coil and the paper quality. I'm disappointed about some of the quality on other items that I've seen in some videos. I bought a zippered planner folio last year and was super disappointed in the quality of that. We will see. I'm going to continue with EC life planner this year, but will be questioning it next year.
Thank you for being so thorough in your review. I had 3 reviews pop up in my subscription feed and yours is definitely appreciated and probably the best!
awesome review! I believe that the Erin Condren team was trying to please everyone that they mixed stuff up and got a bit overwhelmed. I personally like the binder, maybe the binder style that size would be good for someone perhaps in school...it kind of gives be old school high school vibes! As for the planner in the binder, it’s a bit over stuffed. So you won’t have that smoothness flipping the pages. Maybe a 3 ring binder would be best for that size.
Thanks so much for sharing! Great review! I definitely agree with you about the binder. I was looking forward to an A5. It will be a regular vertical Life Planner for me. Can’t wait for launch 💕!
Thanks so much for showing all the planners! I like some of the changes but not all! I’d be quite worried ordering the binder cause of those rings due to the fact that their quality control isn’t great 🙈
This is by far the best video I've seen reviewing all the new EC launch day planners! I am lovin the kaleidoscope patterns and accessories, however I was really excited for the binder, and very disappointed. However it is the first one and might wait another year or two and hope they tweak for the better! I'm also kind of upset that they went up on a lot of the pricing!!! This girl can't afford too much however I do think they make some beautiful coiled planners! And I was thinking about switching to an hourly to manage my time better however I don't like that they took out the half hours and line! Thanks again! 💙
I'm looking forward to getting my new ECLP. I mostly use the Teacher Planner (it's been a life saver as a first year teacher), and it's a personal preference, but I wish when they do the roll outs for the PR sample, the teacher planner was standard. I'm just giddy to look at the changes!
I love the pattern design for this year! I'm a bit disappointed with the binder, though. It seems as if they designed it to not... be... opened (there's no tabs from what I can see? Which... the point of a binder is to be able to open and close it? So... yeah...
I kinda feel the same, I would love to have the colorful version for the accent pages and stuff, but then do the weekly in the neutral. Since most of the sticker shops won't have stickers that fit in the planner anymore, I think have the neutral would just make it so much more functional
Thank you for this fantastic, honest review!! I agree about the binder - I expected a Kikki K type planner. This one seems cheap. I'm unsure if I'll purchase an EC this year, especially with the price increase. I would love to know where the input came from for this type of binder.

Michala Lynn Thanks for the time stamps! Very helpful! 😊
Thank you!
Love all the girls that review the planners during launch, but you are ALWAYS the most thorough. Agree completely on that box- a nice top would have been amazing.
YES to the box upgrade for future launches!
plannergirl99 I agree Jen is so thorough
They cheaped out on the box and binder. I wouldn’t have expected that. Makes you wonder if they’re growing too fast and not paying enough attention to quality.
I feel like they have always had issues with quality. Every order I have placed with them has had some error or blemish. :(
Totally agree. And I feel like they’ve lost their originality, everything seems to be from bits of other planner companies all in one.
If you talk to EC company about the binder option, one easy way to fix your binder not closing is to put a hard plastic piece in the back that will help keep the pages where they are. Because they are using circle rings the pages get stuck in the back rings. If they used a D- ring, it would lay more flat naturally. I made binders for attorneys for years at a law firm, so that’s my useless knowledge I gained! Lol, but maybe it can help here. Thanks for the reviews and honest opinions!! Love EC.
Thanks for the tip! Maybe that's something they'll include in the future
That would help. However, the drawback to a D-ring binder is that you don't just turn the page, you have to lift the page up first then turn it...which isn't that big a deal, I guess😉
Cheryl Richter - that’s a good point!
First thing I thought of was why didn't they use a D-ring. You aren't the only one! It isn't useless when you are constantly referring to your planner throughout the day! I use mine for work and had thought about the binder option so I could shove work related items and board meeting items directly into my planner without worrying I would lose them, but my OCD would win out against the O-ring vs. D-ring haha
Loved your review. I agree! If the box was as sturdy as the pen box that would be AMAZING. I'm hoping they fix these binder issues in time too!
They borrowed the box concept from Emily Ley, the new monthly summary page from The Happy Planner, and the hexagon sheet in the back from Plum Paper. So underwhelmed with this year’s changes, but the Mohawk paper keeps me coming back like the sucker that I am. This was such a well done review, thank you for taking the time to do it.
PinkestGreen omg you’re so right on this lol
Also the pen from Emily Ley
The hexagon thing is also a very significant part of the inkwell press and theirs has a specific purpose. EC just kind of threw it in there randomly lol. It just seems like a mashup of other planners but in the same... that paper sucks me in! Just still surprised they kept the coloring pages when I don’t genuinely know anyone that likes/uses them ? Maybe that’s just me tho 😂
You know... You can just buy Mohawk paper and print whatever layouts you want. I buy Mohawk via smooth in 148 GSM (100#), custom cut to a 7x9 size, and I print my own layouts. It works for me, and it might be something to consider if the only thing you really love is the EC paper.
I use the Carpe diem a5 or the Filofax finsbury a5 and punch with the Carpe diem hole punch, for what it's worth.
I wish they would give me an option of the vinyl pouch or the perpetual calendar. Let me decide what's more valuable to me.
xiixiixo yes! I have so many perpetual calendars I don’t need any more but I loooove the pouches I use them all the time I could use more 😂
You had to be the first planner review video I watched. I shared all of the neutral goodies and couldn't wait to watch your colorful review. :) Another great review, Jen.
Thanks! I can't wait to see your review too when I have a minute 😉
I’m an attorney and used the hourly since it came out. I needed the half hours for appointments. Taking it out makes no sense
Kay R.D. I am so deeply saddened by the half hour removal. What were they thinking.
I am an appointment based worker as well and this.... They ruined my holy grail planner.
So bummed that they got rid of the vinyl pouch. I used mine so much.
This confirmed for me that this year I am going to switch to a plum paper planner and just use my EC interchangeable covers with it. You just get so much more options for customization with Plum paper and for a much better price.
I think the paper quality is better in the PP too! I just like the layouts in EC and there's something intriguing about using the "original", I guess. There's something that keeps sucking me back in, but then I stick it on a shelf and use my PP, even though it's frustrating because all of the stickers are slightly off in size.
Cindy Carlson that’s how I am too! The wow factor of the coil and covers keep pulling me back into EC 😩 but then I don’t use it as efficiently as I would other planners. I am planning to get PP’s new daily layout, I’ve been waiting for EC to drop one but sigh, no such luck
Thanks for your honest review of all items.
I understand they wanted to keep their binder proprietary with their inserts, but it would have been cool to have it fit a 3 ring binder, A5, or maybe Mini Binder, so you can choose your own binder cover. I know some of these options would mean changing the insert size. Having a binder without tabs means everyone will be pulling their rings open, which may cause gapping over time.
The Carpe diem a5 and the Filofax finsbury a5 fit a 7x9 page (and I don't cut the punched edges off either). There's some overhang in the finsbury, but it still closes just fine.
Sooo... They absolutely *could* have done the universal a5 punches. Because yeah, that binder is a hot mess. And that ring setup is ridiculous.
Awe darn, I loved last year’s hourly, the double box’s were prefect. I don’t understand why they change so much every year.
You get used to something and find what you love but they change it errr
I’m really disappointed in the price increase when we aren’t gaining anything 🤭
I don't think that they will be able to fix the problem with having to pick up the binder and move the papers to completely close the binder. The reason you have to do that is the binder rings are attached to the middle part of the binder. All binders that have the rings in the middle has that issue as well as pages getting bent in the back. The only way for Erin Condren to fix that is to change the whole binder with the rings attached to the back cover. Which I doubt they will do before launch. I was really interested in buying the binder but now that I know that the binder rings are in the middle there is no way.
You’re right! When the rings are on the back, the middle and top can lay completely flat and then fold up and over. Good call
Or they need a page lifter for the back (like Foxy Fix has) but because the size is weird you couldn’t just buy one from Foxy, you’d have to wait until EC makes one and it’s probably gonna be $$$$.
I was thinking the exact same thing in regards to the placement of the rings. Why would they do that? They are a high end planner so use the high end features (we all know the cheapest binders have the rings in the centre).
I love that you compare side by side the colorful vs neutral, last year vs this year.
This is the best video I have seen about the new products!!
Baby napping, coffee and planner vid.. Jen you’re my happy place 🤗
This comment is my happy place 😊
The hexagon page is very Inkwell Press... I think it’s for mind mapping
I feel like they could have solved the half hour issue by having a light dot grid in the column - just half the size of the hour box. Then, easy to split in half, or ignore.
I have in previous years loved my ec hourly. I will not be using it for 2020 with the changes to the hourly design. I needed the half hour markers and bigger box. I literally use it multiple times daily. I'm so glad the ruler changed as I would go through several over the year and they almost always lost teeth immediately. I always wished there was some basic option. I have mo interest in the stickers, plastic pouch, or the perpetual calendar and absolutely no interest in a BOX! Function wins over cute so back to basic I go. I'm a sad gal. 😥
I’m so disappointed in the binder. I hope it’s better next year. Thanks for sharing!
I’m sorry, but that box is going straight into the trash for me. The fact that we actually have to pay for it to get the planner is really annoying and I would rather have the vinyl pouch back. The worst part was changing the size of boxes on the monthly and weekly pages, so now all the planner sticker kits won’t fit. I kind of feel like it’s a slap in the face to all the long time supporters and the sticker shop owners who built their business while promoting the EC planner.
Vanessa Dugan yeah, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that we don’t get the vinyl pouch, but our price point goes up... and in exchange we get a flimsy box. I just... don’t get the justification.
I can't agree with you more! I really hope I can tweak the kits I've hoarded from sticker shops to fit in 2020. I have a feeling I'll need white out - to make it work. I'm most puzzled about why a rounded bottom box was included on the vertical weekly. I'm not a fan of that look, but that's just my personal viewpoint as someone who uses sticker kits! I'll be anxious to see how other sticker planners adapt!
Just wanted to say that Elle Fowler on the Glam Planner channel put her stickers in the new LP and they still fit :)
Boom. Nailed it.
Caitlin Hagarty That’s awesome that she showed that! 😊
I’m intrigued by the binder but with my past quality issues with EC I just have such a lack of trust that my rings wouldn’t come botched regardless of control. Thank you for the review I love that you’re so honest and thorough! 🖤
To be very frank....the binder option is not good and I guarantee that there is going to be a ton of quality control issues with it. They should wait to release it in until they can come up with something creative and well made. If they could come up with something like Day Designer does with their A5 size inserts and binders, I would love it. Imagine a quality filofax style binder with the fun and colorful EC inserts and it would be awesome.
Also the Day Designer box! (or the Simplified Planner Box, or any other well constructed box!)
I currently use a Get To Work Book but I do plan on ordering an hourly next week to try it out. I’ve never used an EC before!
I love that you coordinated your blush t-shirt to match your blush binder! ;-) . See you soon in Vegas Baybeee Vegas!
I did? 🤯 Haha, that was not intentional but a happy coincidence 😄
I appreciate how you honestly review things… It is not taken for granted! Also, you are the most generous UA-camr- I’m always amazed !
tfs, always nice to see these planners...the difference in the box size (on the pages)
may send sticker makers into a bit of a flurry...
I was thinking the same thing 😬
Yes that is my thought, and is the bottom margin different, like is all that wide washi made gonna fit still?
A binder planner sounds really neat but I think I'm just gonna stick with the classic Life Planner for 2019-2020 and hope for improvements next year!! Thanks as always for a super insightful review - you make me really excited for ECLP's launch every year!
When I switched from an ARC system to EC, I missed the ability to move things around, add sections, etc so I was excited for the binder. But why would they choose those rings that NO ONE has a punch for? Smh. I’ll probably wait a year for them to work out the kinks before trying the binder.
I agree with Sarahr98998, why buy a binder when you cannot insert your own pages? For the past several years I have been pulling the coil off the EC, trimming the pages and then punching the pages using a disc bound punch so I can use the discs from TUL or Levenger. Disc bound gives you the option to customize; this binder does not. Maybe I will be finally switching to Happy Planner which is already disc bound for half the cost. . .
I used an hourly version this year and have often wished for more hours in the day. But I also use the half-hours all the time. I would have cut the blank space at the bottom of each day.
Jen I feel that you always have the most comprehensive planner reviews! :) You asked for thoughts about the hourly and I have been an hourly gal since it first launched and an EC through-and-through gal prior to that. I'm very disappointed in this year's updates. Re: the hourly, I always used the remaining blank lines at the bottom of each day (if I needed to) to give me basically up to 9 pm. So I didn't really need a longer day as others have voiced (I'd LOVE to see just lines vs. an hourly option!). I DO live in the half-hours though, so that missing formatting might sadly be a deal-breaker for me this year. I am not a fan of the shaded portion at the bottom of the weekly spread and in the notes section of the monthly spread either, and would have preferred it just have remained white. I'm also not a fan of the hexagon change instead of the blank box, though I don't mind the monthly calendar view in the weekly spread. I'm a colorful gal, so I do love the theme and the sleek look of this year's "year-at-a-glance" page. I also appreciate the added focus/goals page before the monthly spread, but wish the tab was still on the month view so you could open right to it.
In the end, I wish I could marry the customizable aspect of Plum Paper Planners with the color schemes, themes, and scripted quotes of Erin Condren. I like the skeleton part of the EC updates, but really don't like the guts. As a homeschooling mom, I'm looking more towards Plum Paper for next year because it's very-nearly completely customizable for both a Life Planner and Homeschool Planner option, which is something EC doesn't currently offer. Plus, now that PP has also partnered with Mohawk Paper, it's hopefully going to give a comparable feel. But I'm sad just the same. As someone on IG put it, it's like a break-up that you knew was coming, but have been putting off until after Christmas. :)
My dream planner would be the same as yours except hourly with the half hour increments.
I really dislike that the stickers coordinate with version of planner you get. I like my planner so I can decorate according to my mood which is sometimes neutral and sometimes colorful. So now I’ll be stuck with the neutral stickers because I don’t think I can deal with the colorful planner.
Thank you for such a great review!! I'll be getting mine next week to do a review. I'm loving the new design and the changes in the neutral. The box size change doesn't bother me, and I'm loving all the new accessories. Excited to hold it in my hand. Your reviews are always so great.
I agree with you about the 📦 vs vinyl pouch. They should have kept the pouch. I 💘 those... 😤
Right? You can buy the pouch separately (or reuse an old one) but it's pricey when you buy more than one planner. $6 each for pouch + the coil clip if you use them.
@@coffeemicrobio Oh darn, I didn't even factor in the coil clip. Thought it came with it...🤦🏽♀️
The design reminds me A LOT of looking into a diamond...especially the neutral color palette
I always look forward to your thorough review every year on the new Erin Condren products. I am disappointed in the binder system, but love the coil bound planners. I usually get the colorful, but think I will be getting the neutral this year. Thanks for all of the info!
Jen could you do a video on your storage of your planners and what you plan on doing with them for future? For example, do you treat them like a personal diary that you don’t want anyone to see, or more a scrapbook of the year that you won’t mind sharing with your family as you get older x
That’s partly why I’ve held off starting a planner cause I don’t know how to store or how much info to give, I don’t know it’s just food for thought
I've only saved the planners that do contain some memory keeping type stuff and tossed the ones that are just to-do's
Pretty Neat Living perfect thank you!
Pretty Neat Living sorry, do you decide which are memory keeping and which are to do? Or does that depend on the planner you buy? Sorry last Q 😄
Great review! I’m not sure how I feel about all the changes and the price. I might just not be great at change lol.
Beyond my FAVORITE video you do every year ❤️ I started using EC when I stumbled upon your channel two years ago. Great peek at the new planners and thanks for always giving your honest opinion!
Thank you for sharing!! Completely agree that the dream planner is a vertical with the colorful monthly and the neutral weekly!
Im truly sad... I loved last years version so much and this one is just so different. I had high hopes for the binder but... man I will have to keep in mind come December I need to look for a new planner for the year. Maybe 2021 will be better... thanks for your review as always I wait for yours first to watch. :-)
Great review Jen! Even though I'm a die hard ELSP user, I so look forward to this video from you every year! ❤️ Love the new design and hope EC put those monthly goals pages in the new deluxe monthly this year as well! Thanks for all your hard work! 👏🏻
Thank you for the binder review! I'm excited about the binder, but definitely unsure. I won't get a new planner until the end of the year, so hopefully they'll improve by then. I'd also love to see additional note or dot grid pages that could be added.
Again, Jen, you always keep it real, which I certainly appreciate! Totally agree with the points you have made. First of all, that box is so flimsy, nothing like the great box the pens come in. Loving the artwork on the cover, colors and cool kalidascope designs. And the pouch for the pens is a winner with me too! Erin Condren does make the best stickers, and always has in my opinion. Thanks!
I won Jen's $250 EC giveaway at a prior launch and it was like being a kid on Christmas again. Thank you for your candid, lighthearted and sincere reviews, Jen!
Thanks for this review! My thoughts about the binder were the same. Just seeing it I was a little disappointed, but like the concept and hope they can release something different later on.
Best review yet! Thank you so much for your walkthrough BEFORE going in-depth with your opinion. There is so much to digest this year. A lot of changes all at once. I am also an On-The-Go Folio user, too! (I use the daily along with my LP and it's my planner peace!).
I don’t know if it was already said, but the issue with the pages getting caught in the back is typical for ringbound planners. You could put a thicker card stock in the back to lift the pages when closing! BUT as you said, the punching is special and in my eyes that defeats the whole purpose of a ringbinder! What’s the point if you can’t punch your own pages!
I know there has been a lot of skepticism, but I really love the new design! I can't wait to order my ECLP and teacher planner! Thanks for another amazing review, Jen. You are always my first reviewer to watch because you really do a great job. So thorough and honest!
Ooh I love the new Kaleidoscope theme! It's stunning! My favourite is still the colorful vertical but the neutral tones are beautiful this year....might have to take a look again! I'm not keen on the shaded boxes for notes in the colourful at all but love everything else. Love the planny pack too and the pens. Not sure about the binder, I agree, they should invest in doing something like Kikki K or even like the on the go but with rings, that would be pretty. Thanks for sharing! Always look forward to your first look vid!x
i switch over to the happy planner this year and Im so glad I did. It's so much fun with really cute stickers. However Erin Condren Life Planner is too expensive and I feel like I'm not getting anything new or worth my money.
I agree with Loving the Happy Planner! Mambi‘ s quality seems to be improving each year while it looks like EC’s quality is diminishing. So sad to see. I don’t mind paying the extra $ if the quality is there but they went super cheap in the binder box and the new loose leaf binder cover. At least their paper quality is still good but I don’t like the direction they are heading. So unfortunate.
Love your reviews they are detailed and on point. Thank you. Now about the planner, I am so disappointed they eliminated the 30 min increments. I use them for my business appointments to keep me organized. I loved the EC planners because the coil and so colorful which is difficult to find for hourly planners. 🙁 Jen if you have any recommendations of a planner that still has 30 min increments for appointments please let me know. You are my planner queen and I found EC because of you.
As usual you never disappoint!!! Your reviews are always spot on and thorough! Thank you Jen!
You are always my first planner review video I watch! Thank you for such detailed & honest reviews!
Your Erin Condren planner reviews are always the best. Great constructive criticism. Thanks for all the details!
Thank you for posting so many options- pretty sure I am moving to horizontal colorful... bummed about the binder for you! Happy Planning!
Great video. As an avid eclp planner user I’m not loving the not so neutral color way. I select the neutral so I don’t have to worry about matching planner kits smh. I was also hoping for an a5 ish planner binder. Sad to say I’m going to look around this year and I don’t like the connection of the vertical boxes either nor do I like the rounded corners
I had a feeling this would be your next video :) I completely agree with your assessment on the ECLP this year. I will add, the kaleidoscope design reminds me of Elsa's big crystal snowflake in the Frozen ride LOL!! Hope to meet you at Go Wild!
Lots of frozen feels especially in the neutral ❄️
I have always loved EC vertical. I am in Canada. The cost of shipping is as much as the planner (almost) and we pay a 20.00 CAN. tarriff on them. I love watching unboxing and just about cry that I can no longer afford to have a $160.00 planner! I do not like the binder, but do love the coiled vertical. I love your reviews. Real life, admire your thoughts.
I wish you could use the binder with the lifer planner... that would be cool and if the binder came with pockets
Almost $20 for a sub par pen........ Erin has lost her mind
People will pay anything for a brand name, Walmart quality product. It's stupid.
SuperLunchable crazy! I saw it on other videos and was like oh cute. Might get that too but jeez! She’s getting too high for me.
I am liking the changes for 2020. Her paper is fantastic and now we're getting two additional pages each month! I like that we are getting a box, because I overstuff my planner, so it is an excellent addition. I would still have liked the plastic pouch to be included as that is how I carry my stickers. This is the first neutral planner that I am considering purchasing as I really like the look of those monthly and weekly layouts. I was excited when the binder was announced, but am a bit skeptical with the ring configuration. Excellent review as always. Thank you!
That neutral horizontal one is beautiful! Love the color :)
Thank you so much for doing this review. They are beautiful but I dont know if it will be big enough for me to run my ministry. I still want one though because your review was GREAT :)
I always look forward to this review! I love the colorful design this year. I agree that my ideal planner would have colorful extra pages (the quotes, etc.) and neutral functional pages. I’m also disappointed with the quality of the box. The sleeve looks cheap. A regular box top would have been awesome. Thanks for the preview!
I LOVE your reviews! I am SO glad you included the binder review, I had seen the sneak peeks, but now I know that I too, will wait a year to see how it all works out. BUT I am 100% on board with the colorful/vertical version. I DO love the boxes and I will buy extras so I can store past year's (Hoping I can mix it up between the colorful and the neutral as I have always struggled with how to store my past EC's. In 2018-2019 I did NOT go with EC but this year (2019/2010) I am coming back. I absolutely LOVE the pages before each month and for me, I actually LOVE the colorful sidebars and bottom sections of the weekly. and the accessories, the Planny Pack WILL be mine! Just saying! :) Thanks so much for your attention to detail!
It is also weird that the binder is in the woven pattern on the the inside instead of the new pattern. This is the same problem I had when I ordered the plain binder they used to have in the standard ring with pages and stuff getting stuck in the back
Coming from a previous EC hourly planner girl, I really don’t like the changes they made in the hourly planner!! I do love all the new accessories and the beautiful kaleidoscope design though! The box and binder do seem like fails... so hopefully they fix that!
Love your honest review. I feel the exact same way about the colorful "outside" and the neutral "guts". Currently considering buying 2 planners an recoiling them 🤔.
That binder is cheap looking with cheap construction, with a funky ring configuration. It's obviously done to make more money selling a separate hole puncher (hey it's business, but it will be viewed as greedy, IMO). When she first started, she sold the pages without any holes at all (as an option). You could punch the pages to match your own binder--it was great! I absolutely love both color schemes--the bright and the muted (cause we know it's not neutral). Great review as usual, Jen.
I'm not fond of the fact that the binder itself doesn't have pockets. Meh. I'll continue making my own customized planner.
Thanks so much for your review! I buy 2 planners every year, one for work & one for home/everything else. Because of the changes they made to the hourly, I’m going to have to switch companies to one that offers hourly in a “not as pretty, but still functional” for me format, because my work planner is planner peace. I’ve never used anything other than an EC, aside from a brief stint in a TN, bujo, or Filofax before going right back to EC. They squeezed in 2 more hours, but with the addition of the thicker margin & date at the top & the thicker shaded bottom box, have actually crammed everything into a smaller planning space. Their own “event label” stickers are too big for the time slots. I’m also not getting an hourly for my personal planner because I don’t want to have to “make it work”, so I’m going back to the OG EC planner, the colorful vertical, because i feel like those changes aren’t as drastic. It’s extremely disappointing as a customer because I love so much about this year’s theme only to have it be “ruined” by the functional part of the planner. First world problems, for sure. 😂 I hope they offer an option next year for the original hourly layout. I think the binder is a joke, but I really hope the people who get one love it. I’m happy there is at least an option for it, even though I think it could have had better execution.
Yikes. Sorry for my novel of a comment. I guess I have thoughts about this. 😂
I’m currently in a neutral vertical but I really can’t decide if I want to move to the hourly. Or the horizontal. I’m having planner indecision.
They would have done better to launch the binder as an A5 size with the standard A5 rings, IMO. Great video Jen - thank you!
I love your honesty💕I totally agree 10 marker pens, sticker and pouch would be my favorite as well. I wish the binder were more like the Filofax 😜. Thank you for always being so generous and giving. Maybe it will be my turn to win. 🤞🏼you have been my inspiration to EC/planning. Thank you 💕I love it!!!
I just ordered the binder I think I will love it 😍 during the friends and family sale . I’m totally loving my coil life planner 😁
I purchased one and I stopped using it because I didn’t like calendars kept going to the other months not sure if I got a defective one was not to happy about it
Thank you so much for the video. I’m really disappointed in the binder. I was interested in it, because I liked the versatility of the disc bound system, but I’m definitely sticking with the coils. I don’t like the binder.
Thank you for the detailed video! I wish, instead of a binder or “system” which many of the planner companies put out, that they would just sell a5 sized inserts for Filofax or Kikki-K type planners. I could even deal with punching the pages myself. I have actually been uncoiling an EC planner for the past few years and trimming and hole punching the pages to put in my a5 Filofax. It’s the best of both worlds for me. I was so excited about the binder but of course they have the 8 rings already prepunched which won’t work for me. I could washi over the holes, I guess but that’s a lot of pages and a lot of washi! Ha. Anyway, I will keep on keeping on uncoiling. I do love the kaleidoscope design, very pretty.
Agree with so many of your points. The colorful neutral is exactly what I would want. This whole launch is honestly really disappointing. I really appreciate how honest you are!!!
I really love this years collection of planners, I just wish they would bring out a range that is more aimed towards male planners. Would be so good with some Matt and shiny dark greys, blues or blacks and greens instead of the foiled and floral/brightly coloured planners.
ANB Aaron Newland-Bentley ikr! Or at least some neutral designs, definitely not just stereotypical "girl stuff" lol
I am glad for your review. I agree, filofax binder would be better. Love the neutral. I am a newbie for Erin Condren and really think I would love it! Can't wait!😁😁
Thank you so much for giving a comprehensive view. I am with you in being disappointed in their binder system. I was hoping that we would have a choice of sizes and inserts-much more customization than with the coiled planners. I am really liking the neutral layouts and I am usually a colorful vertical gal. Thanks to you the 2020 planner will be the 5th year that I use an EC LP. You were the first person to introduce me to EC back in 2015 on UA-cam. I’m excited and hoping that May 6th will get here quickly!
Also I have one of the personal size Agenda 52 binders from HL and the papers in the back do the same thing. I have to scoot them forward for it to close right.
I should have watched your video before purchasing! I have used the hourly and works well with my work and family schedule. I'm super frustrated to see they took out the half hour line. I would not have gotten this layout if I would have noticed when purchased. My fault for not looking into the changes.
With the price increase I will need to look at other options out there. I have always loved EC, the coil and the paper quality. I'm disappointed about some of the quality on other items that I've seen in some videos. I bought a zippered planner folio last year and was super disappointed in the quality of that. We will see. I'm going to continue with EC life planner this year, but will be questioning it next year.
Thank you for being so thorough in your review. I had 3 reviews pop up in my subscription feed and yours is definitely appreciated and probably the best!
awesome review! I believe that the Erin Condren team was trying to please everyone that they mixed stuff up and got a bit overwhelmed. I personally like the binder, maybe the binder style that size would be good for someone perhaps in school...it kind of gives be old school high school vibes! As for the planner in the binder, it’s a bit over stuffed. So you won’t have that smoothness flipping the pages. Maybe a 3 ring binder would be best for that size.
Thanks so much for sharing! Great review! I definitely agree with you about the binder. I was looking forward to an A5. It will be a regular vertical Life Planner for me. Can’t wait for launch 💕!
Thanks so much for showing all the planners! I like some of the changes but not all! I’d be quite worried ordering the binder cause of those rings due to the fact that their quality control isn’t great 🙈
I'm excited for the binder, I hope they fix the isses with it
This is by far the best video I've seen reviewing all the new EC launch day planners! I am lovin the kaleidoscope patterns and accessories, however I was really excited for the binder, and very disappointed. However it is the first one and might wait another year or two and hope they tweak for the better! I'm also kind of upset that they went up on a lot of the pricing!!! This girl can't afford too much however I do think they make some beautiful coiled planners! And I was thinking about switching to an hourly to manage my time better however I don't like that they took out the half hours and line! Thanks again! 💙
I'm looking forward to getting my new ECLP. I mostly use the Teacher Planner (it's been a life saver as a first year teacher), and it's a personal preference, but I wish when they do the roll outs for the PR sample, the teacher planner was standard. I'm just giddy to look at the changes!
So underwelmed about the boxes!
I love the pattern design for this year! I'm a bit disappointed with the binder, though. It seems as if they designed it to not... be... opened (there's no tabs from what I can see? Which... the point of a binder is to be able to open and close it? So... yeah...
Ya, I am not liking the hourly change at all!!! I need the half hour divisions!!! I also have to have the spiral bound planner!
I kinda feel the same, I would love to have the colorful version for the accent pages and stuff, but then do the weekly in the neutral. Since most of the sticker shops won't have stickers that fit in the planner anymore, I think have the neutral would just make it so much more functional
Thank you for this fantastic, honest review!! I agree about the binder - I expected a Kikki K type planner. This one seems cheap. I'm unsure if I'll purchase an EC this year, especially with the price increase. I would love to know where the input came from for this type of binder.
Thank you so much for the preview, I am counting down the days until I can get mine from the website. 7 days to go!!!!
Thanks for showing all the new planners! You helped me make my decision.
The binder and coil planners are the same price. That's awesome!
