Only good thing is the rings

I brought it for school use. The only thing that was good was the easy open rings. The rubberized grip does nothing but get in your way. I can't slip it in my backpack with ease. The binder is wider than usual. The inside pockets can't hold more than 10 sheets well, and paper keeps falling out when I turn the cover flap. I would never buy this over priced binder again.

These binders by far are the best I have invested in for my kids for school. Yes, they are a little more expensive but well worth it because you will never have to replace them during the school year. They do not tear at the seams because of the rubber reinforcements. They don't bend or separate because there is no cardboard in between the covering, especially if they get wet. These are the first binders I have bought that I don't have to replace them in the middle of the semester or year because they broke or fell apart. Replacements of the other types end up costing more overall, than just buying this one the first time. I am sure they would last a few years. We replace them yearly here because my daughter tears off the sleeve and writes on the outsides with permanent marker to customize them for each class. If there is a problem with them, Staples will replace them within a year. They have an outside sleeve to put papers, and a side window to slide in a label and an easy one hand tab to open and close the rings. I will never go back to wasting my money on traditional binders that I have replaced in as little as 6 weeks into the school year. I definitely recommend the investment in these.

Use these binders all the time for school! There are enough colors that I can use different ones for different subjects. They also last year to year, so it's a great deal because you can reuse them!
