I needed it for a professional portfolio i am creating for work. It required the binder to be more than one inch and a half. There where many others but this one was on my budget and it seemed like it would be very good quality. When i used it it worked perfectly. Hasn't bent or torn yet and i have it completely filled with many professional papers. I need the papers inserted in other plastics so the extra space is necesary. This binder is in good shape and it seems like it will last for a while.
Starting to utilize the organizational pointers I keep tearing out of magazines I decided to put them in a binder dedicated to that purpose. I thought a brightly colored notebook would be easily identified when it was time to file things away. The orange was nice and noticeable there was sufficient space to store my collected ideas the rings were easy to split apart and closely fitted when stalled back together. The clear view pocket on the front was ample to hold my title page to list contents. My only problem is that I have forgotten where I put the notebook.
