Five Star Flex Refillable Notebook + Study App, College Ruled Paper and 1 Inch TechLock Ring Binder with Customizable Cover, Pockets, Tabs and Dividers, 200 Sheet Capacity, Amethyst Purple (293260AB6)

It was hard trying to decide what to get and what would be most accommodating for my 7th grader. Glad I got these cuz he likes them. He likes he can keep all classes in one binder, of course the theee holes and folders, as well as being able to bend it all the way around so that it's easier to use and not in the way.Worth the money cuz it does seem to hold up well. Ring closure is super easy to use also One binder so he has less to carry around!

Perfect for college. I like that it’s not hard cover and can fold like a regular notebook. It was a little tricky at first learning how to open the prongs but you just have to pull it hard

Love this notebook. I was extremely wary of it at first because of conflicting opinions on here and other review websites. At first, I wasn’t sure about it. The initial impression it gives is that it won’t last long, either from the plastic of the notebook or the rings. However, I’ve been using this notebook at least 3 days a week for the past year, in and out of a backpack and being thrown around with other books and objects. After a year, it’s held up perfectly. It’s a little scratched, and it doesn’t lay 100% flat anymore, but there is no tearing and the rings still function perfectly. If you can spend a couple weeks getting used to the opening and closing of the rings (which can be awkward at first) this is a great investment and takes up a fraction of the space of a normal binder.

Pros:Cover replacement - I love this feature. The ability to add, remove, or change the cover is amazing.Utilitarian - Five-star flex in general is a fantastic platform to create binders for any need.Con:Size - This binder is a bit wide. As seen in the pictures. When closed, it leaves a gap compared to the other Five-Star flex binder.Binder Tabs - The binder tabs included are flimsy and not sturdy. To accompany this, I used HABGP 10PCS/2 Set 3 Ring Binder Dividers with Tabs.In the pictures, there are two different Five-Star flex binders. The one being reviewed compared to another Five-Star flex with no gap. I much prefer the regular five-star flex. This notebook-size binder is almost perfect. However, it has no cover slot. What I did was the "poor man's" lamination job and taped a cover to the front.

I love this notebook. Easy to use and it looks nice. I use the same one for work, school, and journaling. Has an attractive look.

This has lasted without any ripping or tearing of the cover, which usually happens by this point in the school year.

Love this binder. It’s great for helping me keep by business papers organized

Bought the "any color" deal. We received white. Since, it was for my son, I was happy we didn't get pink or purple! He's only had it for a week, and so far it seems sturdy enough. One thing he likes about it is that it's skinny. It's not like a typical 1 inch binder that will take up a set amount of space in his back pack. This one only grows to size as you fill it. Solid choice.
