Holds a lot but not backpack friendly

My daughter needed a large binder for school. She destroys several during a school year so I thought this would be a good purchase. It seems very durable. However the finish on it does not make it backpack friendly. It does not easily slide into and out of a backpack. So within a matter of 2 school days she stopped using it.
We have had two of these binders and while it is somewhat durable it breaks easily. We have the 3 inch binder so it carries a bunch but last year we had to return it for a new one and this year 3 weeks into school we had to return it for a new one. The rings eventually don't close even if you open it the way it is supposed to be opened (DO NOT PULL RINGS OPEN OR IT WILL BREAK). Otherwise it's a good binder but just keep your receipt so you can exchange it when it breaks.
I love these folders. They are sturdy and I love how easy they open with one click. No more pinching. I also love how many colors they come in. I purchased mine with one of Staples coupons. Love how Staples gives out coupons.
These are the best binders ever! We use them for organizing our warranties & manuals recipes household documents for activities for my toddler and many other uses. The color selection is great. They hold up to constant use & abuse better than any other binder I've used. I like the D-ring style of binder the best. Also the placement of the rings ensures the documents inside stay neat and orderly. I'm currently helping my mother get her home office back in order and we will be replacing all of her current binders with these. Great quality!!
Binder cover broke after less than a year. Took it in to get a replacement thinking lifetime guarantee meant they would replace a broken one. They said nope it was worn out and that's not prt of the gaurentee. I guess they have a different meaning for life.
