I like the fact that these notebooks are sturdy and the fact that they come in different colors. This way I can organize my shelves with notebooks by color code. I choose blue and dark blue so that I do not have a mish-mash of colors. It makes my office look more organized.
Ive had issues with the better binders where papers get stuck where the rings close and before u realize it the rings are broken. I have one i use to store work papers that the one ring doesnt close all the way and one ive actually exchange for my special needs student that did the same thing the first day he had it. Seems more durable but im really not sure. Im 50/50 on recommendations to a friend.
The directions for using the customizable spine are non existent. It is unclear on how to use the option. And once you figure it out I doubt that you could replace or change the label easily.
I have to prepare a portfolio for work. This binder stands out among the other types of binders through its very special design and durability. It definitely looks very professional (just what I needed). It's very easy to use because it opens and closes very easily. If you have a lot of documents to put inside it is definitely a time saver. I bought one first to try it. I was so satisfied with my purchase that I returned to the store to buy some more.
