I got this binder to replace an old standard one. It performs this function quite well. I will get more and replace all my old binders. The only thing I don't like is the way the covers can wiggle in relation to each other. A little more stiffness might be nice.
I use these binders every day both at home and at work. They see heavy usage and stand up to it extremely well. I am so happy with the binder that I won't use any other kind of binder!
I find they hold a lot of scrapbook pages and are less expensive than fancier photo albums. I also like the variety of colors and the way they lay when you open them.
