very durable

This has become one of my favorite notebooks. I provide my clients with a notebook each year to help them keep records organized. I have begun using this notebook for every client. Very durable yet pleasing to the eye. The rounded extra enforced edges also are gentle on the hands. I have not used one of these notebooks that tears at the folds. No catching the rough corner. The clear front and view binder makes it easy to catalog and show descriptions at a glance. yet you can give a lot more detail in the front view area.
This binder is extremely sturdy; however the rings loosened up so that they would not close completely. I do believe this is because there were too may pages in the binder vs. a product flaw.
This is a terrific binder for the price. It comes in many colors such as pink yellow teal dark blue enough to brighten any boring book case. The D-rings help hold up to three inches of material and make it easy to turn pages. You will find their are clear pockets on the inside front and inside back covers which makes it handy to hold a few pages of important documents that you made need to look at frequently. The outside front cover also has a top loading sleeve which allows you to slide your own personal cover onto your binder.
I have a collection of papers I need to keep in binders. I have a binder for each year since 2004. The binders keep getting purchased each year since they are the same ones I started with. The problem I have is that one of the rings the bottom one does not seem strong enough to hold the amounts of pages it was designed to hold. You need to be very careful on how you open the book so the pages don't fall out. I really wish this would be fixed since I am stubborn and I want to have the same book each year so I will (stupidly) continue to purchase them.
