This binder has some neat features but I wish I had seen the other reviews about the zipper before I purchased this. Given the price of the binder, there should be a reliable zipper. Now headed out shopping for a new binder.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We apologize for the issues you have experienced and will have a representative contact you as soon as possible.
When trying to close the zipper you have to manipulate the zipper in order for t to work and in a few months time of doing this it will be broken and all that money will be a waste
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Zipper Broken by December

I generally choose Mead products over any other brand and was excited to purchase this binder for both of my middle schoolers...the colors are great, the binder, pockets, nooks and crannies are also great, but the zipper absolutely failed to meet expectations. The zipper on my son's binder didn't t make it through half of the school year and broke in December. Hopefully next year's design will incorporate a zipper that can keep up with the rest of the package.
Bought this binder for my 3rd grader. He wanted to carry a binder to school because his 5th grade sister carries a binder but a different kind. He loves it. Makes him feel like a big kid. In place where the calculator goes he keeps a box of crayons. In the outside pocket he keeps his take home folder and school planner. So cute. He uses it everyday.
Pros: Color Variety, Easy To Customize, Easy To Open/Close, Rings Close Evenly, Well Built / Quality
This zippered binder is great for our 5th grader and has space for everything and an expandable front strap to slide that math book or notebook in and you are ready to go. Well made and secure!
