This is a strong durable binder. My son is rough on binders going through several during the school year. I bought these for him last year and they have really held up well. I (he) does have one issue with them. He does nor like the way the pockets are angled on the inside of the front and back covers. He says that his papers fall out too easily when he opens the binder. Maybe consider putting the pockets straight across like other binder of this type. I do like the rubberized seams and corners though. Overall these are very good.

There is no such thing as the industructable "binder " however this does last the school year. Love the colors!
I’m using it to compile my son’s college basketball clippings for his son for Christmas.

Best binder I've seen is it worth the $

These binders are great; I have them in many sizes and colors. I use them for work and for personal filing. The colors clear plastic cover and spine label make them easier and more professional to customize than others. The price is a bit steep though. When you need a bunch for big jobs or handouts the price gets high very quick.

The only binder I will ever buy!

These binders by far are the best I have invested in for my kids for school. Yes they are a little more expensive but well worth it because you will never have to replace them during the school year. They do not tear at the seams because of the rubber reinforcements. They don't bend or separate because there is no cardboard in between the covering especially if they get wet. These are the first binders I have bought that I don't have to replace them in the middle of the semester or year because they broke or fell apart. Replacements of the other types end up costing more overall than just buying this one the first time. I am sure they would last a few years. We replace them yearly here because my daughter tears off the sleeve and writes on the outsides with permanent marker to customize them for each class. If there is a problem with them Staples will replace them within a year. They have an outside sleeve to put papers and a side window to slide in a label and an easy one hand tab to open and close the rings. I will never go back to wasting my money on traditional binders that I have replaced in as little as 6 weeks into the school year. I definitely recommend the investment in these.
