I purchased my first Staples Better View Binder when creating a personal cook-book. That worked so well that I made my second purchase to create a personal date-book I needed something durable. My cookbooks which i make for my family members look awesome. My personal work-calendar book is holding solid and stays clean and attractive when I am out on the road working. Recently I started purchasing more to replace all the old binders that I have for home projects storing Insurance mortgage auto home purchases. These binders do the job not only are they durable but they create a beautiful library in my home office.
I orginally purchased this product many years ago. Was very impressed with the durability and love the fact that they do not slide. I handle many different companies so the variety of colors and sizes makes it very easy to coordinate. We will never buy another type of binder.
this binder was slightly more expensive than other brands but definitely worth the money. it holds up to rough handling and packs in the papers. the binding definitely will take wear and tear. i purchased 3 and my kids found them sturdy useful and nice looking.
This is what anyone continuing to live in a paperless culture who finds paper relevant is happy to have: a 3-Ring Binder that is east to grip plus durable with the rubber edge and hinge and comes with D-Rings which hold more pages while less likely to have that gap that allows paper to escape. There is a clear plastic insert sheet for the front and the inside of the cover has clear sleeves for loose paper as well. The only improvement I would like to see is the same clear sleeve on the outside back. Staples has produced a winner in humble products here.
These have always been my "go-to" binders and I have them in multiple sizes. I particularly like the 3" binders to keep all my course lectures/handout masters together. I have some of those binders 5+ years and they still work well! The d-ring does hold more and keeps front pages from needing reinforcements/replacement. I do like the rubberized edges (avoids the poking from the sealed plastic edges on cheaper binders). Occasionally I've had to exchange due to faulty d-rings (edges wouldn't engage) but I now just make sure that I check those in the store before purchasing and I'm set.
I have been using these binders for a few years now and I have never had one break yet. I tell everyone here to make sure you use the tab in the middle and not try and open with the ring. Everyone has done just what I ask (I know amazing) the binder is such a good value. We do a lot of classes and over the years I bet I have bought close to 1000 of these binders. I will continue to purchase these hopefully Staples keeps these in stock so far they seem to have every size that I need and the amount needed at the time. Keep up the good work.
