This is the only multiple pocket portfolio that I have found in a card stock type of material. All the others are plastic and flimsy do not have as many pockets. . I have tried others but always come back to this one. It is sturdy. I don't know of another brand with 8 sides in one packet. If there is a downside it is the primary colors the product has. it does not look serious enough for anyone in the office. it reminds me mostly of someone in school. But i use it anyway. It suits my purposes. I could probably make a cover for it if absolutely necessary.
I was disappointed with the quality of this product. When I transferred my paperwork into the pockets the spiral binding pulled apart and the pockets separated.
I purchased this all-in-one portfolio to keep all my marketing letters organized at the office which it does brilliantly. I then decided to purchased a second one to organize my school assignments. I am taking night courses and thought the various colors would help to keep all my homework assignments organized as well and it does. It is slim and light weight it fits perfectly in my backpack or in my laptop bag. It has become very useful for both at work and at school. Just recently my husband asked me to buy one for him.
About 40 years ago I bought a portfolio with many pages designed to hold warranties from household items but the years took their toll on the handy storage unit. I searched the web called all the office supply stores in my town and tried to contact the makers of the portfolio but nothing led me to find another one. I went to two Staples stores and at the second one found some individual pages for a notebook and thought I might have to settle for this idea........until I walked around the store and came upon the Oxford All-In-One Portfolio by Esselte. While it did not have a large number of sections I was still able to make it work; in fact I bought several and will now put warranties from different parts of the house in each one: example-basement kitchen outdoor equipment etc. As usual Staples had what I needed and I will always end up there when I go out of town. (don't have one in my town...)
