better view binder with D ring
on February 17, 2015
Posted by: Paula K.
The Better View Binder with D Ring is my favorite binder and I purchase it whenever I am in need of another new binder. the reason it is my favorite is because of the high quality of the binder. The material used to make the binder is very sturdy and seems to have a rubber-ish material at the points where the binder bends reinforcing it and making it less likely to tear. In fact as long as I have been purchasing these binders I have never known any of them to tear in the least! The D-Ring allows for the papers to all lay flat without having to be caught/stuck like what happens when a binder has a circular ring. I thoroughly enjoy the D-ring feature as it totally removes the torn paper aggravation I always have associated with a circular ring. I would recommend this binder to all of my family and friends and I will continue to purchase them too!!
I purchased a half-dozen of these for a project. When I opened the D Rings the first time they worked well. Went to add some more pages and the Rings didn't separate as well as the first time. Third time I tried to add pages I could no longer "push the button" to open the D Rings. If you purchase these ensure you have all the pages you want in the sequence you need because this is only a one-shot use
Our business utilizes these binders to create training manuals for employees. They seem to hold up well and the rings are easy to open/close to exchange pages as needed.
I like the size of this binder but it is hard to turn the pages. The paper gets stuck on the rings because they are not lined up perfectly. It is off just enough to keep the papers from freely turning. That is the only problem.
This binder comes in many colors and holds up better than any other binder I have ever bought. It has a rubberized spine and outer edges that just does not seem to break no matter how bad I treat it. It has title inserts in the front and the side spine. It also has two useful plastic pockets on the front panel and on the back panel. The D rings use a single button to open them and they close with ease. The ones I bought are the one inch size and they handle by their description two hundred and seventy five sheets but I got slightly more in with just paper but it was really tight.
