This us all we buy for school. They last and come in many different colors. Some of these binders we are able to reuse for the next school year. The ring is durable and the binder is strong. My kids can be pretty rough with these binders. I can even get 30% of by visiting deals on Staples website and clicking on coupons. I never pay full price. If you save you old binders they usually run a recycling special where you get money off for bringing in your old binder to recycle.
My son goes through binders like nobody I've ever seen. It's unbelievable. I'm trying this brand because it looks tough and doesn't look like it can get busted easily.
The binders are really built well and maintain their shape and strength even under heavy usage. The two inch version is in my opinion a better option that the three inch as the later tends to become too bulky and more difficult to handle then the two inch version.
