Especially, let me know if you aren't able to view the video.

Overall
Hahnemühle's Mixed Media Bamboo Pad in 3.1 x 4.1 in/8.0 x 10,5 cm size is great for carry, and if you're like me, it just looks cute. The paper is 125 lb, so sturdy and it is truly mixed media, working well with a variety of mediums.
It holds up well to wet mediums, and I like that watercolor has a nice flow on this paper, but you also have a great deal of control.
It is a 'rough' paper as most mixed media is, but it strides the fine line where watercolor works well, and so do pens and pencils.
