Never again. These binders worked great Forney niece when she went to high school 6 years ago. Now my daughters a freshman so I got her one. The first one broke within 2 months and so did the second. I was hopping the first was just a defective but it wasn't. The second one was just as cheap as the first. They look nice and strong but they dont hold up. Its not the outside its the inner metal parts (rings) they need to fix. I'm super disappointed. What a waist of money!!
We use these binders for our procedure manuals in our laboratory They are constantly opened and thumbed through daily pages added pages removed and even dropped from counter height and they are all still in great condition after many years of using them in our laboratory.
These are great for storing our SDS for our laboratory. These sheets need to be kept for 30 years after discontinuation of a product and I am confident these binders will still be intact at that time.
