Staples Better Binders are the best binders I have ever purchased. Very durable for kids!!! They last a long time and only had to be replaced after months of being overstuffed which made the rings not close properly. In the past I have had to replace binders at least 3 times during the school year because they would fall apart...not the case with the Staples brand.
This binder is extremely durable. It lasted my daughter an entire school year. Now that my other kids need a binder I bought more. The only drawback is that if you open it incorrectly (by pulling on the rings instead of the push button) the rings won't line up consistently or as securely after that. The solution is to train them how to open it.
I bought these for couponing. I was using an old binder from high school that I had to tape back together (multiple times). So you know my binder will get used a lot. I'm usually value oriented but in this case I wanted a good quality binder that won't need to be replaced in a year. This one holds more than my old 2". And the seams are one piece of rubber. The only flimsy thing I can see on this binder is the clear front where you can put a page in. All in all very pleased with this binder.
This is a great binder for professioanl presentations. It makes a statement and it is very substantial. If you want your clients to recognize your work/project at a glance this will be the binder for you to use.
