I needed to organize paperwork for school. Handouts and homework assignments were building up and a folder wasn't making the grade! Tried an old binder that I had but the binder ring kept catching pages---inefficient! I knew I should get a slant ring binder. So this "D ring" was great. Also discovered with the D ring that many more pages fit into the binder than with a regular "o ring". The binder also came in many colors so I chose 1 to match the notebook for my classes. This makes it easy to quickly grab all the colors for my class on the way out the door to school! Great!
I have purchased about a dozen of these binders in all sizes for the business I am a partner in to file important documents. And my kids wanted them as part of their required school supplies in the fall. At first I thought they were expensive and didn't want to spend the extra money but seeing how long they last it was a great choice! The binders come in many great colors and sizes to fit every need. The few extra bucks you spend is really worth it and Staples "Binder Buy Back program" is great also - $2 credit toward purchase of a new binder when you turn in an old one. You can't beat it.
The rubber edging on the binders sticks to my books and to my other better binders when putting them in my backpack and taking them out of my backpack - I love the stability the rubber edging provides I wish I could have the grip from the rubber but also the ease of a binder without the rubber so I wouldn't have to struggle so much with putting my binders into and out of my backpack many times a day! I also LOVE the one-touch button for opening and closing the binder rings and I adore the bright colors that are available for these binders :)
I have divided my entire home office; taxes insurance retirement plans lawn care and purchase tree & flower receipts budget investments 401K receipts into these binders for quick reference. It not only helps me stay orginized but allows me to find items within minutes. I also bought the letter paper with the metalic edgeing and printed the cover and tap for the side of the binders and it looks great. I now have people come and ask for something and I find it immediately and they say how did you do that?
