I use a notebook in extreme heavy construction situations and needed a durable notebook to take notes with. I like the college lined model that gives me the correct spaceing. I really like the poly cover that is extremely durable when I throw it in the back of my truck. Addtionally if I happen to drop it off staging 3 stories up it doesn't tear. Also the pockets are really helpful to keep track of loose papers. I doubt I buy any other notebook after owning this one. Thanks to the designers for putting it all in there.
Our grandson needed a general theme notebook for class in elementary school (5th grade). At the time we had some staples rewards available so we used part of it to purchase a 100-page notebook for his use. We live in Michigan and he lives in Florida. From what we have heard the notebook is serving him well. It is holding up to the rigors of going back and forth to school and may be a little too large for the rest of the school year but he can still use the extra pages for scrap or notes to friends so it is working out great.
This is a good reliable notebook for everyday or school use. The covers are reasonably durable and the paper is high quality but like all spiral notebooks the wiring bcomes worn and tangled and eventually the notebook breaks down.
Since i have been attending school i have used these tablets in my class and will continue to use them because they are easy to keep up with my assignments and classes with the different colors that they offer. I am able to organize and keep up with any loose pages with the pockets that comes with them. The colors are nice and durable and clean. The pages are protected with spiral and easy to maintain the stability and the college lines are just what I need when doing assignments and reports.
