this binder costs more money than the other 3" binders that you can get but this one is more durable. The rings fit well and there is no gap when they are closed. I also like the see-through pocket on the front so that I can easily put my own cover sheet in it. My one from last year is still in great shape. Only negative is that the inside pocket is not that great - only good for a couple sheets of paper and they tend to fall out. But other than that a great binder. And I appreciate the color choices - much better than the boring primary colors.

I was looking for a strong binder to hold a lot of nursing powerpoints and notes. At the same time I wanted something that looked nice as I was purchasing this for my daughter and we didn't want just the normal black or white binder. The selection of colors of these binders was awesome and I couldnt' decide which to get so I got several different colors and good thing I did since she has already begun on the second binder and it is only the fourth week of college this semester. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase more of the same!

3 inch binder

Large and roomy. Every other binder I have tried has either broken because it's too inflexible or the covers have ripped. This one fits all my child's school notebooks pencils and other supplies easily and the covers are flexible enough not to break or rip. Unfortunately it broke the first week it was used: the rivet holding the rings in popped out of the back. I'm going it was a one time defect. I'll be returning it for a replacement.

1. Great color selection on these binders - Orange Hot Pink Green Blue - makes them easy to differentiate the uses. 2. Withstands consistent opening and closing of the binders throughout the day. 3. Doesn't "rip" like the other binders do at the seams. Only drawback with the binder - similar to other binders if you drop it the rings don't line up like they did when you purchase them. Highly recommend and will continue to purchase these types of binders (regardless of ring size needed) whenever I am in need.

Only fair wear & tear!

3" binder purchased for a middle school student who uses it everyday to hold classwork for 5 different classes. Really liked it's flexibility and the plastic material that it is made of but the rubberized seam between the front cover and the spine began to rip after 2 months and the rings were beginning to close unevenly. Gets expensive if it has to be replaced every 3 months.
