After 50 years of marriage and at least 60 years of cooking I decided to gather all the recipes I had collected during my lifetime enter them in my computer print them put them in sheet protectors and collect them in 3-ring binders. I have 3 children so I purchased 3 different colors of the 3-ring binders. In addition to the binders and sheet protectors I bought 24 lb. inkjet paper plastic insertable tab dividers removable inkjet labels and durable filing tabs to complete my project. All above products were purchased from Staples. In addition I also purchase my HP printer ink from Staples. The finished binders came out beautiful and made a perfect Christmas gift for my children and their families. It was a big project but it was worth it.
My eighth grade daughter asked me to buy this binder for her Spanish class since her old basic binder only lasted four months. She tells me this binder is awesome and the rubber corners really help from keeping the corners becoming bent torn and helps keep the plastic coating on. In the past her binders had a tendency to slip off her desk but this binder's rubber corners have solved that problem. The D-Rings offer better control and ease of turning papers dividers and folders.
This binder is long lasting and sturdy. I've used them for file keeping for the past three years. I will say that the rubberized ends are useful for keeping it from splitting but it does prevent it from sliding on shelves easily. which a convenient and inconvenient thing.
Very good item for the price and especially the quality. It has a sturdy back which makes it nice when someone is always opening and closing the binder. We use it as a reservation book so it gets a great deal of use. You also have a variety of colors to choose from so this is another way of sorting different things in different colored binders. The opening tab is so easy to use you will not loose a fingernail when opening or closing the binder. You can also put a custom front cover on as well as labeling it on the backbone.
