I bought the binders for my son for his freshman year in high school. He is one of those kids who love school supplies and he loves the binders. They fit in his backpack and are not too bulky. They are more flexible and versatile than traditional binders and more fashionable which is a plus!
My daughters have used them for school. My oldest one has used hers for 4 years now. I used to buy them binders every 2-3 months. These really last and are worth every penny!
I replaced about thirty of my old family history research binders with the "better binder". I just love them. I use the different colors to represent the countries I research. Examples: red for Canada green for Germany yellow for Portugal
I was disappointed that the selling point of a binder where the ring let the papers move smoothly WAS NOT true. I have several of these binders the rings DO NOT close together properly and the papers either get caught in between and tear or fall out! If these were cheaper in price it would be easier to forgive. I do like the fact you can personalize the binders.
