Great value for the product after all functionality is important even if there were no frills like different colors to choose from. The stiff cardboard cover is just as good as the plastic covered ones and these are certainly more economical. I wish they would not limit the number per customer to so few. I have been using these for years and never had any issues with them. Staff at Staples are always competent and friendly the store I use is always well stocked and sufficiently staffed.
Works just as well as a brand name. Papers tear easily. The cover is sturdy. Its great for taking notes. Substitutes well for loose leaf. The kids enjoy using them even at home. Schools recommend hardcover composition notebooks as part of their supplies. However we use it at home for drafts and playing school. Its great for PTA moms who need to keep track of activities/functions. Its great for moms to keep themselves organized. You even see teachers using them at school for their own organizational purposes.
Every Fall I stock up on these colored notebooks. When going to a a meeting conference or just on a trip I make sure to have a notebook with me. That way I can make formal (and informal) notes in my notebook. It's all there. Some people take notes on their computers or notepads. I prefer to take notes in long hand. That way I'm using all three learning modalities e.g. auditory visual and kinesthetic. I listen to the speaker see what I'm writing and am using my hand in actual writing. This writing stimulates my brain and the memory centers to in a more positive way than typing onto a keyboard.
