I had planned to use this as a 'portfolio' for my son's school work and related documents. Since I had quite a few documents on the surface this seemed to be a perfect product. As soon as I got it home I put all of the documents (about 500 pages or so) and dividers in. Imagine my disappointment when the rings would not stay closed?!?!? I did not expect to have this problem the very first time I tried to close it at the price I paid!. Certainly would not recommend.
My 11 year old son uses this binder daily for school. The binder rings pull apart which make moving papers back and forth very difficult and the papers usually fall out from the binder rings. He had it one day and the bottom binder ring began seperating and the clear overlay pocket in the front ripped.
