Carstens1-Inch Heavy Duty 3-Ring Binder - Side Opening, Ash Gray, Durable Plastic, Precision No-Gap Rings, Waterproof Cover, No Pockets, Holds 125 US Letter Sheets, BPA-Free, Made in USA (8702-3R)

I purchased these binders for school. I've found them to be sturdy, well-made, and great for keeping research and papers together as I work on a project. After finishing, they look great on my bookshelf, too. They're expensive compared to the bargain binders but having one disintegrate, or the three rings fail, and your work gets strewn all over the floor, driveway, or street, I'm sure spending the extra money so that doesn't happen is well worth it.

The media could not be loaded.  I got this binder for a surprise gift for my sister’s wedding, and it is exactly what I expected! Holds a lot of papers and seems sturdy

Expensive but like the quality and the color

These are not flimsy nor are they overpriced. These binders are made specifically for the medical field to be used as patient charts and are reasonably priced considering their purpose and features. They don’t have pockets because pockets aren’t needed in a hospital setting. Don’t buy this if you can’t appreciate its purpose.If you want a sturdy binder that can be easily cleaned and has a reliable ring mechanism, then you should be happy with this one - I’m very happy with mine! I love the mustard color. I can easily add a stick-on pocket if I need one.

I needed a tough binder that would be in a wet environment and not fall apart. This is durable and exactly what I needed.

great one

These are worth the price if you actually use a binder frequently. That is, opening it up and popping the rings open and closed to add or take out pages. The covers are tough and well made and will last. The ring system is also tough and precision made. If you are just using a binder to load it up and then let it sit on a shelf for storage any old binder will do. But if you want a WORKING BINDER these are the ticket.

it’s an alright binder but when it came in it was extremely scratched up and dinged

The binder literally arrived today and looks like it's been used for a solid year. Really cheap plastic showing wear from any point that the metal ring inside touches it. I thought I was "treating" myself to an overpriced, pretty binder but instead I got this. Just buy a boring Avery binder or if that's too much a dollar store binder would be better than this. Woof.
