 Works great! September 19, 2008

I read the reviews regarding the black marking. I actually tried it when I got it and I had to be really intentional for it to mark a page. When it did mark, it was really faint. I got three of them, one for my office, one for my home, and one for my bag. I use quote from books all the time for my work and these weights are perfect for my use. I also like to cook alot, and this is helpful for those pesty cook books that like to close on me all the time.
On really stiff books I have found that the weight could be heavier, but all I have to do is adjust it to keep the book open. So it works with everything. Its a great purchase.

Certainly does the job, keeps pages down nicely and seems to be well-made. The leather feels good (though not supple) and the stitching is tight and sturdy. I expect this to last.

I really like this product because it keeps my hands free while I read. If I could change it I would like it just maybe and inch longer or a tad bit heavier in the weights.

This Book Weight is longer than my other one, and works better on larger books, as it is also a bit heavier. Grips the pages well also. Give it an A+.
Works well, but be careful... December 17, 2007

This bookmark is heavy and long, making it perfect to hold down pages so that you can read a book hands-free. This is very useful when taking notes from a book when the book doesn't want to stay open by itself. However, there is black dye or paint on the edge of the bookmark and it rubs off leaving small marks on pages when you pick it up or put it down or slide it back and forth. To avoid this, I turn the bookmark upside-down so the black edge doesn't touch. It's not a big deal to me, and I believe the bookmark is worth purchasing despite this drawback, but it would be nice if they offered this bookmark without the black edge.
