The first day of school my 8th grader came home to show me that the prong on one of the rings was setting about a half inch higher and did not meet or close like it should.
This is the one my grand daughter wanted and no other would do. She needed it for school so she hasn't used it yet. She liked this one because it looked very sturdy. Linda B
Sturdy binder that will stand up to the wear and tear of a middle schooler ease of opening and closing the rings is fantastic and ability to personalize the binder cover and side make it easy to find in a classroom full of white binders all the same.
The nonstick surfaces worked well and the seams have held up very well. I used the binder to organize all my paper work and schedule for a three (3) day training expo I accessed the binder almost 20 times each day and never had a single problem.
