Lovely design, compact, sturdy, versatile

Lovely design, compact, great for quick notes. Very innovative solution. Can carry anywhere and fills the gap of my digital notebook which is too cumbersome for quick tasks. Doubling up as a card holder is an excellent idea. Highly recommend

What a wonderfull and simple idea.

I love love love this idea.
The Memo is really good quality and I use it for so many things. Grocery shopping list, to do list, stuff that just came in my mind that I need to remember. I write down how many rounds I have left when I crochet.....and many others. I usually use my mobil Phone for this, but this is just much nicer and without notifications and other things to desturb.
And it's great that it also protects my Credit cards.
A creative wallet....what a wonderfull and simple idea.

I absolutely love my memo

I absolutely love my memo! At first, I thought I would not need it because what the hell do you do with such a small little whiteboard, but boy did I get schooled. I gave it a shot because I thought I could need a more portable version of a tablet for small temporary notes and I needed a new wallet anyway. Now I can proudly say I have not spent a day without using it and I have never been more productive. The ability to carry around my vision board and at the same time, have an easily changeable and eraseanle to do list without having to look at your phone with a billion distractions is invaluable. I recommend anyone get one while it still lasts. Is also a great conversation starter!

Sleek, stylish, durable and reusable

I bought MEMO a while ago because I was looking for a small, easy to carry, reusable notepad for small notes, to do lists etc. Regular notebooks crease, scratch or damage easily and MEMO was exactly what I was hoping (but not expecting) to find: a steel case with a whiteboard inside, that closes well, doesn’t open if you don’t want it to, opens easily if you do want it to and which has a pen embedded inside as well. Sleek, stylish, durable and reusable.

To be honest I have not used it as a wallet. I did test it: it holds up to 3 cards on each side and the cards stay put regardless of whether you put 1, 2 or 3 in the slot. The cards are easy to slide out if you need them, but they won’t fall out (I tried shaking them loose and even throwing the MEMO on my couch from different angles and distances so as to mimic the MEMO falling out of a pocket, without running the risk of damaging it). The cards are also RFID-protected.

Anyway, I have a cardholder I’m quite fond of which holds a few cards more than MEMO, so that’s the only reason I personally don’t use it as a wallet, although for people who are looking for a new wallet, I can certainly recommend this.

As I said, I bought the MEMO for note taking purposes and in that capacity it travels everywhere I do. I use it at home as a reminder note or to do list, I use it on-the-go to jot down thoughts or as a to do list, I use it as a shopping list. I’m very happy with it.

The only improvement I would suggest are the pen slots: if you could make them a tiny bit tighter to fit the pen in, you wouldn’t run the risk of the pen flying out when opening the MEMO. For now: just be a little careful opening the MEMO and do so while holding it flat so the pen doesn’t fall out.

Memo is Incredible

You know that the product you purchased is incredible when everytime that you use it, people stop and stare and ask you where you bought it. I have had two people in the last week that requested purchase information, so I gave them the company and product names. The memo holds six credit cards, has two mini dry erase boards and contains a dry erase pen with eraser.
