CardinalPremier 11 x 17 3-Ring Binder, 1" Locking Slant-D Rings, Heavy-Duty Covers, 250-Sheet Capacity, Black with Spine Label (12112V4)

The 'Cardinal 12122 Premier Easy Open 11"X17" Binder' is a very sturdy, workhorse of a binder. It not only appears to be well made, or mine does, but it feels substantial to the hand. It seems mine will stand-up to heavy, sometimes outside conditions - not saying it can or should get wet. It is my feeling this binder will last till I no longer need it, around 8 to 10 years. It, to me, is a very good buy, especially for the money.My ONLY complaint is it has no pockets. None on the front or the back cover. I almost purchased a binder of this size that did have two pockets. It, however, felt flimsy and much lighter-weight than does this large binder. People working out of their office, as well as those working IN their office ALWAYS have a need for a pocket or pockets. Pockets would have been such an inexpensive addition, says I, it is a real shame one or two were not included on this sturdy, large binder.Otherwise, who could ask for more from a huge binder like this one?

I used this to construct a portfolio of architectural drawings for school, but it would also become my professional portfolio for trying to find a job. It's a nice, simple, professional looking binder. It's got a nice length (extends beyond the length of 11x17 sleeves, which of course are longer than 17"--I used these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004LXZRAA/), it uses a nice set of rings with a little easy open tab, and a small clear pouch on the spine for sliding in a name or logo or something. The only thing I question is it's durability--I'm sure if it's handled carefully there won't be any problems, but I speculate that if it's dropped or something then the sheathing at the corners might split and start peeling back, since the cover seems to be constructed similarly to like cheap Wal-Mart binders or what have you.Overall, it's a solid purchase that fulfills its purpose. Of all the portfolios my instructor received, he liked the presentation of mine the most and was recommending to the other students to look into getting a similar binder.

Great folder for keeping large prints contained. Well balanced for handling.

False advertising for sure! Does not even fit 226 pages!

These extra long 3 ring binders are hard to fine. This is a good one for the money. I would buy again.

We had old records going back to 1920 that's were falling out of the book they were in, we needed something new. Unfortunately the style of the older book was unavailable, but this one did the trick.

This is a well made notebook with an easy 3 ring opener. An extra large size of 18x11.5 with a slim 1.5 spine. It can be used for legal papers but it serves me well for all my individual world country maps. Highly recommend.

Perfect and great quality!My 13 column columnar pad fits perfectly. I bought the 2 inch so I could have more room to expand. That's a 50 sheet pad inside.
