This was intended as an easel-back holder for a personalized client gift – something that could stand up on a counter. I would never let a client look at anything so flimsy much less give it to the client. I ordered two and one was already splitting without any papers inside. Particularly at $17+ this product was completely unacceptable.
I use these binders for documents that I need ready access to and that I handle frequently. The rubberized edges make handling the binder more comfortable by eliminating sharp edges. The plastic construction is more durable than traditional cardboard based binders. The rings open and close easily and always stay closed until you need to open them. The clear window on the front allows you to add a custom cover if desired. Different colors allow you to organize documents while grey trim gives all the binders a uniform look.
This is my go-to 3-ring binder. The REALLY EASY ability to label the spine is my favorite thing since I maintain many binders and keep them side-by-side upright on shelves. With other binders I have had to cut pieces of paper and tape them onto the spines and the tape inevitably pops off. One other commonly sold binder offers a slide in strip for the spine but it's long length is unwieldy and you have to turn your head sideways to read it! These spine labels are short almost square; they pop in easily and they accommodate horizontal labeling. I like everything else about the binder too: its' durable construction the attractive color choices the D-rings and the ability to customize the front cover by sliding something in behind the clear plastic.
