The binder would be much easier to use if the "rings" were an oval. The fact that the right side of the rings is straight while the left side is oval causes the sheets to bind when you try to flip from right to left. Sturdy colorful and well received by the prospect other than the page flipping issue.
My daughteris not allowed to carry a backpack but instead must carry a 3 inch binder all day. She dropped this once and now none of the rings line up!!!
I am enjoying using this "better" quality binder. The other binders with rings that bend and twist make my work a terrible chore. Instead these better quality binders help to move the pages as needed on the rings and are a big improvement over the basic ones. The basic ones are a waste of money. Having higher quality available means that Staple "gets it " and is helping people with projects to get them done faster and to preserve the materials in a superior manner. Thank you for this higher quality. AF
This binder seems to work well for what I need. I bought 2 since I plan to fill them both up quickly. It is heavy but that's because it's sturdy. Hopefully they will last through many openings and closings.
