Five Star Zipper Binder, 2 Inch 3-Ring Binder with Round Rings, 5-Tab Expanding File, 380 Sheet Capacity, Black (72536)

This binder states that it is guaranteed to last the school year and having used 4 of these with my now teenage son, I can attest that it does. This is a highly durable, well-made binder and I won't buy any other. My teenage son uses this as a briefcase of sorts because all his work for all subjects is kept in here. He uses the carry handle and takes it from class to class. The left side has an accordion file of about 5 pockets (see picture below), and on the 3 rings he places his 3 hole poly folders and pencil case. He uses every inch of this binder. The first part to consistently wear out in each of these binders is the inner mesh see-through pocket because it is constantly rubbing against the middle metal ring (see picture below). But even that is not too much of a problem because it happens very slowly over time, and the slight hole it wears through is not large enough to lose anything from the mesh pocket. On his most recent binder, the material where the zipper attached to the binder started to pull away by the end of the year, but that is ONLY because he packed this binder so full it strained the zipper. The zippers on all 4 that he has used heavily have NEVER broken or snagged, the handles never broke, and the outside never ripped or wore away...but boy did it get dirty :).

The solution for 7 binders!!! Our son has 7 classes and they have to pull all of their binders out before walking through the metal detectors at school. This was an easy solution that now allows him to be organized and only pull out 1 binder! It has multiple pockets, folders and storage. He can hold all of his classes in this one binder with dividers. Its well made and durable! It also reduces the weight of their backpacks especially since they do not use lockers anymore!

Our 6 grader is having some hard time getting used to the local school system: we moved here from EU and teaching style, homework are completely different over there... After having watched some tutorials online, we decided to purchase a good organizer binder and help him with the work organization. Since the different full size organizers look very similar to each other, we decided to purchase the most popular four and compare them before taking our decision. This fromm Five Star was our winner, no doubts. We compared this Five Star one with an "Amazon Basics 3 Ring Binder with Zipper", a "Case-it The Mighty Zip Tab Zipper Binder 3 Inch O-Rings 5 Pocket" and a "Case-it Universal 2 Inch 3 Ring Zipper Binder". Please watch the video attached for better understanding. Besides the fact Five Star is definitely better made, more sturdy, better made handle and in general more attention to details, it has also more internal pockets and useful storage space. Amazon basic was immediately canceled from the selection as a matter of fact rings are way too big, huge I would say, and materials are quite poor. No space for chromebook, nor for calculator and pens. The 2 Case-it - even if nice - are also not the best in terms of quality: the 3 inches one (bigger of the two) is nice but does not have space for chromebook and calculator. The 2 inches one (smaller of the two) has a pocket for chromebook but not for pens and calculators. Furthermore it is not big enough for the use we wanna do. This one from Five Star is big enough, well made, has space dedicated for calculator, for pens and the front pocket - even if not specifically made for chromebook - it can be used without problems for that purpose. We cannot say how long this is going to last but - so far - we are happy with the decision taken. According to tutorials online, the organizer must hold 4 pocket folders (2 x math, language, science) and 2 for homework (to be done, to be turned in) plus a notebook, a ring pen pouch, calculator, extra pens, chromebook).

I like the pockets in this and the size, plus the carrying handle. I just wish it lasted a while school year. I've repurchased several times because it's a better price than other brands that don't last any longer. I would pay more if the rings didn't become misaligned and the outer fabric didn't tear.

Good quality. I’m pleased with this and use it as a sticker collection binder for our daughter. It worked perfectly and she loves it.

These are just like our classic Five Star Binders of the 90s but BETTER! Nostalgia with an adult twist. No more keeping my homework organized, now I use them for keeping my parents medical records in one place. Easy to carry around with a shoulder strap keeping my hands free to support my parents. Simple to use. Lots of pockets and secures documents with rings that actually line up now.

Nice trapper keeper nice ring closure. It’s easy to use. It’s a little bulky for carrying. I do like the pocket options.

I used this as a kid and it was great, so it is sad to see such a decline in quality. This Trapper Keeper fell apart after only two months of use when the zipper broke. I repurchased it thinking I had received a defective one, but the same thing happened again. After two identical failures, I cannot recommend this product at all.

Llego en tiempo y forma gracias

Excelente. Este fichário é bem mais prático e melhor do que ter que levar varios cadernos por separado

I purchased this binder (and sheet protectors that hold up to 25 pages each) to see if I could transfer my filing cabinet into it. Amazingly, a 2 drawer cabinet very easily is now in this binder with room to spare if/when needed. I have 23 tabs/categories, some thicker than others, but they are all organized, very compact and anything can be located with a flip of a page. I also really like the accordion folder for either "this month" or must be taken care of soon before filing away, etc. The extra areas are great for pens, glue sticks, white-out, tape, a small stapler, binder clips, paper clips and post-its. I also love the handle, making it really easy to grab it to work elsewhere at times and when done, it fits tucked away in a desk drawer. As for durability, I am in and out of the binder at least once a day and have been using it for 2 years now, with no signs of wear or tear, it still looks brand new. Overall I am really impressed and definitely recommend it. 👌

Bello ma purtroppo eccessivamente ingombrante...

A pesar que el articulo llego con un dia posterior a lo pronosticado, cumple al 100% con mis espectativas
