I always purchase these for my children. They last the entire school year. We could probably use them for more than one year however the plastic on the cover tends to tear. This is not usually a major issue my son just doesn't like it. They do cost a little more than other binders but they are definitely worth it!! We previously bought other brands but they needed to be replaced after only a couple of months. Theses stand the test of time!!
These binders last longer than the less expensive ones although the D-rings often do not quite match causing the documents to catch as the pages are turned. All-in-all they would be the only binders I would consider. Too often student binders must be thrown away at the end of the school year. Not so these. Wow I see further down the page on the review they ask if you are an employee or if you have received a free sample. I would be so lucky. This is the 7th of these binders that I have purchased..
I splurged a bit by buying the better view binder but I liked the color. I just started using it but the push button ring opener is a nice feature. I need a couple more binders so will consider this type again.
The binder is well built and reinforced arond the edges accounting for a longer lasting product. Available in a veriety of colors making it easy to color code paperwork.
A sturdy binder to hold a thick unbound book . I used it as a cover for a book written by a distant cousin containing my ancestral history. I fully expect the bound book to withstand much handling as it is passed around throughout other family members' homes and hope to eventually display it as an item of interest on a coffee table. That way visitors will also have a view into the history of both the family and the area in which we live. I can't say enough about the quality of this item.
I bought this binder because I needed something to hold a lot of school papers. This binder is absolutely fantastic! The rubber binding keeps it from wearing out from constant open and closing. The labels are the perfect size and I was able to color coordinate all the kids' binders. I highly recommend this binder for any active student.
