Love these binders have purchased on numerous occasions for the kids for school as well as for myself. The pages turn with ease and they are sturdy enough to last through the school year and beyond for my boys no easy feat. This year I tried one of the all in one binders for my 11 yr old son (the ones that come in like a zippered portfolio). What a mistake. Inside of 2 weeks the binder inside was broken. Complete waste of money. We're back to the Staples Better binder. Won't be making that mistake again anytime soon Better binders last not only longer than 2 weeks but the better part of 2 years for him and he is rough on his stuff. Highly recommended.
I carry mine in the car with copies of client documents. It gets tossed around but holds up well. Love the flexible binding and the easy grip. If I needed more I wouldn't hesitate to buy them.
The Exterior of this Binder is very well made durable and attractive. However the rings inside seem like they don't belong on such a rugged binder. They are way too easy to open and should have been made thicker and stronger. Only because of the ring constuction I can't recommend this binder.
