I am a full time student and these are perfect to separate my binders into homework, notes, quizzes and tests. The templates are easy to use and print out. I agree w/ some of the other reviews that say the inserts don't fit very well into the tabs. However, this is easily fixed with a scissor. They are very durable and I plan to be able to use these for many more semesters. Great colors!
These were so easy to use. My daughter and I downloaded the template from the internet, typed and printed her labels and was already to use them in less than 5 minutes! She loves the colors and the cool style, different than the boring square tabs! Thanks!
I like the way the tabs look style wise and they are made of heavy plastic so they are durable and will last. The only thing I didn't like was that it seemed like the printable tab inserts were hard to slide into the plastic tab holders.
These look nice, but the printed label is hard to read, no matter the color. As a previous reviewer noted, there is little space to write anything meaningful. In addition, the labels do not want to come cleanly off the sheet, that is, the perforations leave something to be desired. Finally, one of the plastic inserts tore when I put the label in. I will not be buying these again.
I use a lot of different dividers for different binder projects and generally use the same-old-basic styles over and over. I saw these one day and bought a set to try. I LOVE them! It was for a 'fun' project and the multi-colored ovals suited the subject matter perfectly. Because the dividers are plastic they are very durable and easy to use. I found the formatting for the actual labels easy to use and the tabs looked GREAT. I even received compliments (and when does one generally receive compliments for binder dividers??!!) which was a lot of fun. I recommend these dividers for any project professional or personal that allows a little 'whimsy' for a change!
These are, by far, my favorite dividers. There is also a set of five available, which I also use frequently. In one of the reviews I read, it was mentioned that the dark blue divider is hard to see through. Avery makes two different color schemes for this set of dividers, and the set with "rainbow-like" colors doesn't have that problem. These dividers are durable and look great, especially if you spend some extra time with the printer template. I found that moving text up to the top part of the tab insert instead of aligning it in the middle can help make it easier to read once inserted. Make sure to print out a test sheet and hold it up against the tabs sheet to ensure your labels will print correctly!
I thought this item would be perfect but it's not worth the time or the money. The colored plastic tabs break easily and the inserts don't fit in very well. Don't waste your time on this item.
