Excellent Binder

This binder is just the right size for my notes which I receive from ed2go classes. They consist of 12 lessons 2 per week over a period of 6 weeks. Each lesson is lollowed by quiz. This binder makes it easy to review the notes of the current lesson. At the end of 6 weeks there is a final exam. With all of my notes in the one binder and the index it is relatively easy to look up any item I might have forgotten over the period of six weeks. I can also include supplemental notes and relevant references off the internet.
I had a coupon to replace an old binder with this one. The only problem with this is that I replaced the same binder with the same broken one that only lasted a year. So I expect this one won't last long either. prices are too high.
as the name aptly describes this is a heavy-duty binder. it is a workhorse that helps you organize your papers tidily all in one place. the d-rings improve the ease of turning the pages and in opening and closing the rings for the binder. the rings stay shut and one does not need to worry about them popping open at any time only when you want it to. i've bought several of these binders already and staples offers good deals for these binders rather frequently. i would recommend it to those who prefer their important papers in one viewable place.
Bought these for use as trial notebooks. The two folder flaps in the front and back are great for keeping misc documents in. Heavy duty closures keep documents securely in place even when they are filled to capacity. Once you get a lot of papers in there it is sometimes a little less easy to turn pages since the rings are D shaped instead of O shaped but I didn't really find this to be a big deal. Very happy with this product. Plus they were running a special where you got $2 credit for recycling an old binder. So killed two birds with one stone getting rid of old dilapidated binders and replacing them with nice new binders.
I love D-ring binders because of being able to put more pages into the same amount of space; however many binders are flimsy and fall apart easily. These heavy-duty binders are sturdy and seem like they will last a long time.
We bought this binder to replace my son's first one that he began using in September. I would say it held up well since we replaced it not for the D clip but for the plastic cover that he chose to rip off.
