Just a note for people who are contemplating the mini or pocket for wallet use. If you want just one planner/organizer for everything so both a planner and wallet and you live a simple life (ie. not a wife/mom, not a student, job does not require you to jot things down or have many appointment), then a pocket can work as your stand alone organizer. I use just solely the pocket size for 8 months straight and it works great.

Filofax should hire you!

1/2022 - Super video. Would like to see an updated version of this video for 2022, plus options for vegan or faux leather planners. I don't use leather, and it is so hard to find non-leather planners other than plastic ones. Looking for a compact small, wallet-sized vegan leather or non-leather planner (not plastic). Thanks so much!

@cheryllcooper 4 года назад

Thank you super comprehensive. I am just getting into the filofax rabbit hole x

@NaturalByNature62 9 лет назад

This video was a great help in helping me choose my next organizer

@MoonBeach03 11 лет назад

I'm a new Filofax user (I'm awaiting my Personal Finsbury to arrive) and still learning about the world of Filofax and all the different models. This video has helped so much! I've watched so many videos about particular models individually but seeing them all together and compared side by side has been really helpful! I had pretty much discredited the pocket model as something I would never use because I thought it was much smaller than it really is.

@Queenmom313 10 лет назад

Jennifer, I can't tell you how many times I have come back to watch this video! Thank you for your info!

@lindabelardes5971 9 лет назад

I've watched this video several times. I actually bought the Malden Purple personal, and Malden purple Compact Zip. I would say you did a great job. I would like the get a mini and an A5 later. I'm so excited and hope I get organized. I used planners when the kids were little but haven't since I've been single. I really could use it. I love to make list but lose them. So I think I'm on my way for organization. Thank you for a great job...and BTW I will still watch this video again. (wish they still have the gray color)

@normanorourke5832 4 года назад

Loving your knowledge of organisers, such a pleasure to watch

@niyab8148 7 лет назад

Your collection is beautiful! Thank you for the in depth info on the many different sizes and varieties. I learned so much. I just ordered my very first Filofax I can't wait to get it. ;)

@luckycharmz98230 11 лет назад

Thank you for this video. I have been wanting to invest in one with so many people swearing in them. I am a single mother college student working on becoming a nurse that has her own business so I am crazy busy and has to be organized or i will drown. I like the comparisons and descriptions you give because reading about them on the website I cant visualize as well as see them to figure out what I need. So again thank you and I am for sure ordering my first filofax.

@terri6584 3 года назад

Thank you very much! This has been super helpful for me!

@melig192 8 лет назад

I found your video when looking for organizer sizes. Very helpful :) I didn't know what to get but after looking at this video I knew exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much

@nickcarraway3790 6 лет назад

Thank you so much ! I want to purchase a Filofax, and this provides just what I need !

@Gisellenid 8 лет назад

snap! yesterday arrived my first filofax that I bought on ebay. It it cost me like 35 bucks frome some 2nd hand seller (very good one), and its an A5... but I should've seen this video before ordering. A5 is quite heavy, and I personally think I'm not gonna fill it all up. Personal should be the perfect for me as a begginer. Thanks for your video!

@SillyConeBaby 10 лет назад

Ah, this is JUST what I was looking for! thanks :)

@melissavang2618 10 лет назад

Great video, love it. I was thinking to have A5 and the personal one, cuz I like to leave one n home and one on the go like go out. Lol

@riffiriffi6310 3 года назад

Great researched video and extremely helpful.

@DAISEYLEETHE1ANDONLY Месяц назад

I love rewatching all your videos wish you can do a update video of your planners

@hannahkurz7435 10 лет назад

this is the best video about different organizers i have seen so far. thank you! it helped a lot

@linda22_ 7 лет назад

Do you work for Filofax?! I know this video is almost 4 years old, but you're probably the first person I've come across that has THE MOST number of filofax's lol...and you know quite a bit! They should pay you! lol

@calisongbird 7 лет назад

Linda C The part at 11:08 is incorrect. Filofax does not make a personal size with 25mm rings. Gillio Firenze and Van der Spek do. All Filofax personal size binders have the industry standard 23mm rings, except for a few rare vintage models like the Cavendish and Portland Grand, which have 30mm. Of course, this does not include Filofax Compact size, with smaller 15mm rings.

@emilypompei192 8 лет назад

thank you so much for making such a helpful and informative video. I thought I'd want an A5 but after watching this realised a personal will be much more practical. thank you 😊

@rhiski1322 3 года назад

Super helpful, thank you so much! 😄

@Irene65 11 лет назад

I'm so happy I just buy my first Filofax A5, For me is the best size because a used to have always normal agendas with the same size that the A5. And I have a cakes business so it's perfect and with this video I see all the differences between everyone. Thank you so much for this video, I can wait to have it, because I live in Venezuela and I ordered to be ship to my brother's in Fl. here do not sell washi tape and all the cute things that you guys used to decorate the pages It's to bad

@Justmyopinionlol 6 лет назад

hi there, can you write in the description all the sizes so I can go back to this video for reference...

@teenysquirrel 9 лет назад

Wow! Amazing. Thank you for this video. Can't decide between Personal and Compact Zip.

@DracoNorth 11 лет назад

holy crap your beautiful =) Exactly the info I been looking for thanks so MUCH.

@chloeados6226 9 лет назад

This was really helpful! Ordered my first Filofax today and I'm so excited to start using it. Thank you for the video :D

@samsprrr3548 9 месяцев назад

@mei-linggrey9475 9 лет назад

Brilliant video! very informative and well-explained :) Thank you!

@mypurpleylife 9 лет назад

Mei-Ling Grey Thank you. I appreciate your feedback.

@TheGLOSSette 10 лет назад

Malden are great and I do own a personal size one but I just want to mention that they are slightly fatter looking than other organizers of the same size whether it be a pocket or personal or what have you. Since the leather is so flexible it can fit more than other Filofaxes of the same size. BUT if you are that kinda person that has way too many things to fit in and don't wanna go a size up then the malden is a good choice. I find it does get too heavy after a while.

@sarasmile5274 Год назад

Hope u and your family are well. Loved your videos. Wish u were back

@mypurpleylife Год назад

Hi! Yes, we are doing well. Thanks for stopping by and sending your well wishes. I'm glad you loved my videos. I can't believe that it was almost 10 years ago! How time flies.

@Ne0nLicht 2 года назад

The A4 organisers don't accomodate US letter sized paper, but DIN A4, which belongs to the international standard (ISO) paper sizes. The A4 is exactly twice as big as the A5. In fact, if you cut down an A4 piece of paper by half, you get two A5. One of the advantages of the ISO sizes is that each size in the series is half the previous one, and all of them (4A0, 2A0, A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, A9, and A10) have the exact same proportions, which allows for scalling. Each size is 70% the previous one, so that you can use a copy machine or a printer and scale an original 70% to get it printed in the next smaller size.

@Ne0nLicht 2 года назад

The Deskfax from Filofax holds the B5 size paper. Like the A series, the B series papers also keep the same proportions and each size (B0, B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8, B9, and B10) goes in between two of the A series sizes. B0 goes between 2A0 and A0, B5 goes between A4 and A5, etc. The Filofax Deskfax has nine rings in three sets at the exact same distance as in the Personal size. Therefore, a personal insert would fit in either the top six or the bottom six rings.

@Ne0nLicht 2 года назад

For the sake of completion (LOL) the ISO C series (C0, C1, ..., C10) determines the standard size for envelopes, being each envelope size on the series larger than the correspondent A size, so that it can accomodate it inside. For example, the C4 envelope (229x324mm) accomodates A4 paper (210x297mm).

@Ne0nLicht 2 года назад

The A4 standard punch has four holes spaced 80mm (8cm). For that reason, that standard punch is also known as the 888.

@BethanyGordon1992 10 лет назад

Thanks for the video! I've narrowed it down to the pocket or compact, haha :)

@penman8985 6 лет назад

Great video, you personify the Filofax brand. I’m looking to buy a new organiser today, thanks for your guidance. Greetings from the UK. 👍

@donnaneal2976 11 лет назад

Jen, Yep....found a new, still in box Panama on ebay for a great deal. It just arrived and it's lush! I had written to you because I just can't find a lot of info on this filofax.... It's almost too pretty to use, but I'll force myself lol. I have a pocket Maulden I'm using as a wallet. Donna

@glacyneyla-lifestyle 9 лет назад

Thank you very much for your helpful video! :3 Now I know that "compact" is the right filofax size for me! :D In Germany all RU-vidrs use only Personal or A5, so I have never seen a Compact before... =/

@487mnj 10 лет назад

Another great video!!

@AnnyLovesPink 9 лет назад

Super helpful video. Thank you so much. I'm about to order my first Filofax but I'm not really sure which size to get. I found a planner that I really like however it's only available in either pocket or compact size. Which one would you recommend?

@mypurpleylife 9 лет назад

+AnnyLovesPink I would recommend the Personal size. With that you can judge whether or not you will need something smaller (Pocket or Compact), or bigger (A5). Good luck! =)

@AnnyLovesPink 9 лет назад

***** thank you but my problem is that the one i want isn't available in personal. i guess i will have to get two lol the pocket and personal one

@hannkg7715 6 лет назад

@donnaneal2976 11 лет назад

Jen, Great video. I love watching all of your videos and have learned so much from you. I am curious, have you ever heard of the personal Panama? I know it was available several years ago and I would love to learn more about this model if you have any information. Thanks!

@lwiener67 11 лет назад

I'm going to choose the holborn personal for my 1st planner. And carry it with me. I love all the pockets. What do you think or would u choose differently?

@123mariposa55 11 лет назад

Great video! What other pocket and mini size models with the full length pocket for cash? Other than the Malden, I mean?

@anyasworld3945 3 года назад

I use the personal size as I can tell by your explanation but the pockets on mine are very similar to the pockets on the compact ( except the zippered pocket)but mine has pretty large rings so does the person come in different pocket designs.

@calisongbird 7 лет назад

The part at 11:08 is incorrect. Filofax does not make a personal size with 25mm rings. Gillio Firenze and Van der Spek do. All Filofax personal size binders have the industry standard 23mm rings, except for a few rare vintage models like the Cavendish and Portland Grand, which have 30mm.

Could you please tell me the brand name of your A5 filofax organizer? I love the soft thin cover.

@myrenecopeland1957 10 лет назад

Are They Moving Away From The Purple Malden Or Malden Period? No Finsbury. I Did Go The UK They Didn't Have It Neither. I'm From The USA Myself and They Don't Have Much. Are They A Seasonal Company? Enjoyed The Video. I Love Purple Myself. Many Blessings And All Smiles.

@frey-j-iow5398 9 лет назад

+myrene copeland I know your comment is a year old, but had to respond. "Are they a seasonal company"? NO! Their history goes back to 1921 !!!!! Check this link! www.filofax.co.uk/visual-history This next link will take you to all the current filofaxes available from the UK company, don't know where you visited in the UK, but just because they didn't have either where you shopped, doesn't mean they aren't available here. And yes, they still do the Malden. www.filofax.co.uk/personal-organisers?___SID=U

Hi loved this video....I am just about ready to purchase........a Filofax Pocket Classic?in red?...but am still hesitating...this video has helped.....just wondering...do u think I will notice a huge...difference in the personal/or pocket? I'm scared..lol j.k.. but it IS a big step...thanks so much.............

@mypurpleylife 10 лет назад

There is a size difference. Think about how you would be using this organiser and what types of information you may be writing in it. It also will depend on your handwriting, do you write big or small? I think this post on my blog will help you determine that: www.mypurpleylife.com/2013/09/how-to-choose-insertsrefills-for-filofax.html

@ashadams5698 11 лет назад

What is your opinion of their non leather models? I will not use leather, since I don't want a baby cow to be slaughtered for its skin. But I often find that many planners in a vegan material are not as durable and they often do not put as much care into the making..

@puppylover8131 10 лет назад

where can you get the Filofax mini and pocket size personal organiser

@wonnyrox07 10 лет назад

Would you recommend a personal size for high school students? Or would it be a bit too small? Just for exam periods and due dates, small notes, then other things in life.

@lorimcmahan5683 11 лет назад

I am thinking of switching to a Filofax from my Covey. I have loved my Covey planner, but there is something very personal about the Filofax. If anyone out there that has changed from Covey to Filofax, let me know what you think? Thanks, Lori Mc

@keekeesdaily 10 лет назад

I was wondering, does the filofax inserts fit into a collins organiser?

@mypurpleylife 10 лет назад

Thank you for your question. Collins organiser refills are designed to fit all other leading brands of personal organisers, please refer to the size guide on the Collins website to ensure you buy the right one.

@MsViolettEyes 6 лет назад

Great recap of your collection. ❤️ the purple Finsbury! Know that the color is discontinued. 😢. Let me know if you ever decide to sell it. It would be perfect for my Poshmark tracking (@msvioleteyes). Thnx! Also love the Original purple patent! On the hunt now. 🙂
