Very Durable Notebook
on February 13, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
This notebook is very durable and withstands the test of being used daily in a business. The different vibrant colors allow us to easily distinguish which book is for which project. The 3 rings hold up to being opended up every single day. But.... it is not good for putting in a school book bag because the rubber on the edges doesn't allow the notebook to easily slide into the book bag. My daughter fights every morning to put them in her book bag because the ruber on the edges sticks to the side of the book bag. Not a happy scene at 6:30 in the morning before school and work.
The blue 2 inch Staples Better Binder with View cover and D- shaped rings is just right for the job that I am in the process of completing. This binder has the right tools to allow my record of activities to be well kept physically and organized (with the help of two sets of the 8 tab separation sheets). Besides providing complete security the design of the D-ring system provides for ease of use. The D-ring system is managed opened - closed - locked by one lever. The lever itself is designed to not be snagged by typical handling so it does not surprisingly open. The D-rings themselves each have a point and socket which forms a solidly closed connection. The materials used in the binder construction are of higher than normal quality and the design accommodates temporary storage on both inside covers.
I haven't found a better buy for a binder. Although the rings are not predictable ( i.e. they have not held secure after some time [ less than a year ] this is light-weight and the hard cover lasts nicer than others. Therefore I always buy this type for my scoolkids.
