These binders have been great for organizing family genealogical material. The size is good for dividing individual documents & pictures that I am loading into archival plastic page protectors. The rings open easily with the opening mechanism and the D-ring keeps the pages flat and easy to go through. The front of the binder provides a plastic-covered sleeve for identifying the binder as does the spine. Both are easy to use. I plan to continue using these binders for future organization.
This is a great binder; tough let's me customize the cover and spine the right color blue. The only thing I would like is to have a choice of the pocket inside the front flap or a flap that I can slide a business card or info sheet into. This only offers the pocket.
The Staples Better Binders aren't cheap but they are the only ones I have found that will last the whole school year - in and out of lockers in and out of backpacks stuffed full and dropped on the floor. Don't buy other binders bite the bullet and start with these. My high-schooler has even managed to get a second year out of some of hers.
