It's not often that I buy something for work but this was an exception. I'm involved in a ongoing project where things change all the time and this notebook is just perfect for the task. It's the right color made to hold everything I'm going to need to stuff in it over the next 18 months or so and I was able to make it look just like a published version of my project with the slide in cover feature. Couldn't be more pleased if I had made it myself -- thank you Staples for this great product -- I know it won't fall apart any time soon!
This product exceeded the requirements for this office. It is very durable strong has everything one would want in a high quality notebook. I high;y recommed this book to others.
I have several of these binders in various colors. The two features I love the most about them: 1. They lay flat and the rings are easy to open and close. 2. The size of the binder (width/height) allows me to place paper in sheet protectors (so I don't have to hole punch items) and then use tabbed sheet protectors as dividers. These tabbed holders (by Avery) extend beyond sheet protectors but stay within the binder. I also love the different colors available (more offered online than usually found in stores). This allows me color code (receipts - red photos - pink etc.).
This binder is a nice step up from the standard "heavy duty" binder. Has a nice feel to the cover and looks a little more "refined" on the shelf. Smooth ring operation. I also like the smaller more defined spine window.
