Heavy Duty love the side pockets

This is a great heavy duty binder. It has clear side pockets which are great for sticking items in you need to reference. Negative: the metal rings do not meet perfectly correctly so when you flip your papers back/forth in the binder they catch. That is a pain.
These 1 1/2 inch heavy duty view binders are excellent for my scrapbooks which I do when returning from trips overseas. I like the view window on the front and along the spine so that I can put a pertinent picture relating to the trip not only on the front cover but also on the spine where it can be seen when it is in a bookcase. The D-rings seem to hold more pages and are very easily accessible and also allow the front part of the scrapbook to lie flat. There are also two pockets inside the front and back covers for extra papers or brochures.
This binder is the nicest I've ever had. It holds my entire genealogy study which consists of 152 documents stored back to back in 76 sheet protectors. This heavy-duty binder is very sturdy and its easy opening D-rings make flipping through the pages very easy. I especially like the Gap Free ring design--the rings of the binder this item replaces just would not stay closed and the pages kept coming out--very annoying! I would recommend these binders for any use in any size rings. Another plus is it has four pockets two each on the inside of the front and back covers. And the covers are wide enough that dividers are not sticking out and getting messed up.
I bought four one and one half inch heavy duty binders with the D-ring. My family is very satisfied with them. I only bought them a short time ago but so far they appear to be holding up very well. The view cover is very clear not cloudy like some other binders we have had. The cover sheet fits into the view cover nicely but it does not slip out. The D-rings are of good quality. They are easy to operate but they do not open on their own. They also align up easily when you are trying to close them; even if they are pretty full.
Every time that I purchase a Staples heavy-duty view three ring D binder I receive an e-mail to review it. So once again here is my review on the 1-1/2 inch red binder that I recently purchased at my local Staples store. First of all every time that I buy a binder in person I have noticed that Staples' stores always have plenty in stock. The choices are numerous. You can choose from different sizes colors with or with out views on the fronts and sides heavy-duty or regular etc. The binders are just great! I always buy the heavy-duty type. To me they are worth the extra cost because they will last a very long time. I also do the same with the view types. Just as reminder save your old beat up binders. Bring them into the store for recycling. When you purchase new binders at the same time you will receive a $2.00 credit on a one for one basis. What could be a better deal!
