I am happy that I got the folder with a coupon that brought the price down to nearly half of the normal price. This folder is not worth the full asking price. My son uses it for middle school. While the rings are holding up the clear view pouch in the front already needed taping to keep it closed to the bottom. I hope the thing stays together for the rest of the year as it would be a very poor value even with the coupon otherwise. I would recommend this but not necessarily for school. I am sure this folder would hold up great with moderate use in an office where only careful adults use it sometimes. It's not really sturdy enough to take the rough and tumble of middle school.
Working at a law firm we are always making up binders full of documents for the clients. This binder makes such a wonderful change from the usual black binders we are always using. Beautiful color great quality. I really like the flexibility of the binder itself. Easy to open & close. Also the D-rings close very solidly. Great buy!!
Bought this binder for our 12 year-old seventh grader. Within six weeks two of the rings weren't lining up right. This is a chronic problem with all binders I know but I guess we expected better.
I am 8 years old and am using this binder for school. I really like it except that I don't like the D-ring feature. Sometimes that gets annoying to deal with when moving from one folder to another.
This is my fourth year buying these binders. They stay in excellent for the whole 9 months of school. These binders are transported back and forth to school and are used every day. They never break or fall apart.
