This binder doesn't come apart at the seems. I used to replace binders every quarter. With this binder my kids end up wanting a new color long before the binder wears out. Well worth the few extra dollars.
Love the color and size (3”). But the front and back flaps are very weak…flimsy…difficult to hold. I have purchased this binder before (in a Victorville Staples) and hadn’t used it much so when I saw this one in the Rancho Santa Margarita Staples I bought it again. But probably won’t again.
