Best 3 ring binder ever
on March 10, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
I have purchased these binders for keeping track of bank statements and other office needs for several years. BEST FEATURE: and the reason I will purchase no other: YOU DON'T HAVE TO BREAK YOUR THUMB PRESSING THE RELEASE LEVER THAT OPENS THE THREE RINGS. These binders are easy to label good non-slip edges for desk and shelf great colors for color coding your various catagories several widths to choose from. Who knew I'd spend five minutes praising a three-ring binder...but there you are. Totally worth the price.
Wanted something to take with to meetings that looked nice but professional. This covers on both counts. No more tearing paper and ripping part of it. Just slip the paper out and your done. No more taping torn papers together. The accessories available for this product are great. Dividers allow for more than 1 meeting in a day and no chance of writing notes in the wrong place. Dividers gave pockets to add loose papers too. The front cover has a spot fir business cards. No more looking for my card holder to hand them out at meetings. Everything is just awesome about this product. Yes I highly recommend this product
This binder is very nice looking easy to use and is very sturdy not likely to come apart at the seams like other binders. I like how the rings separate . . . no pinched fingers. Also I like being able to put in a sheet with a picture.
I love this binder it stands up and stays put where ever you stand it without additional support no matter how jammed full it may be or even if it is empty. It has a rugged yet very professional look which is what you need for a binder your using constantly daily. Love the ease of changing the spine tab too. These are binders go from one project to the next with ease and still look brand new. The only issue I have experienced is the inside rings need to be stronger and tighter. I use pocket dividers inside these binders for my document storage which can hold a lot of pages but are still very thin at the edge and when flipping through the binder the bottom ring opens ever so slightly and lets the dividers slip out at the bottom ring. So I have to open the rings to slip the divider back in every time. Very annoying but not a deal breaker. Still if it were not for all it's other wonderfulness I would not recommend these solely for that reason alone if you use pocket dividers. And I use both kinds of pocket dividers the plastic and the paper they both unfortunately slip through. Still these are the best on the market today.
Takes a while to remember that you just can't pull it open. You must use the tab on the bottom. Regardless the teeth close accurately each time so that pages don't get caught
Am I glad I found this binder. I have been going through the old ones so fast b/c they just don't last and break apart at the seam. But not these. Well made to last you for a long time. A little more expensive but well worth the money.
These binders are the best I have ever used. They hold up well and do not crack on the edges like the other brands do. I will not use any other kind after having this type of binder. I have already recommended these types of binders to other people.
OK so this is a little pricey for a binder. However I have to say if it can withstand my 12 year old throughout the entire school year and still look good its worth it. It is my go to purchase for school supplies and the convenient wipeable surface is great.
