These have a design flaw in that the top ring is frequently mis-aligned so it doesn't close properly without being "pushed"

These binders cost a bit more, but they are worth every penny!The rings are easy to open and close, and they hold a lot without sagging

Then after loading all my papers into it noticed the top ring doesn't close all the way.

Ergo, the top ring does not close tightly and pages get caught in it.

This particular binder has that great innovation, the D rings, so that papers will not get jammed on one side

While the ease of opening the rings with the top and bottom tabs is simple and easy to do, the less than stellar construction takes away from the overall quality of the product

I really like the D-ring open/closure functionality – very easy to open with a touch of a finger and also

I need to search for more durable 3 ring binder.

I've used binders with smoother mechanisms, but the one-touch, one-handed EZ-D ring works well

The rings are flat to the left so that papers lie flat once you open the binder and move them over

The ez open rings are great, especially for those of us with arthritis in the hands and fingers.

You can trust these rings to stay shut and your papers in order

The Avery Heavy-Duty View Binder has a nice ring system

It holds about as much as the other brands 3" because the rings have a gap of one inch from the front cover!I'll pass on the cheap ring construction, they do not close properly without help and don't hold a tight lock

For a couple of years I have had a binder like these and it is my favorite binder because opening it is very easy and yet the rings stay together very well.

Most of the binder is wonderful, but the three rings are weak and pop open too easily

The rings are strong, the tabs to open them are sturdy and easy to use

I really like how easy the rings are to open - much less likely to pinch your finger or hand.

The Avery Heavy-Duty View Binder has a nice ring system

My daughter used it for 2 weeks and the ring started to break open so it cannot close fully.

It's very easy to add or take out papers; no two handed wrestling the rings

We love the awesome "One Touch EZD Ring," which makes it very easy to open.

Crappy rings

I ordered 7 all in different colors and they all exhibit this problem with the top ring.

The rings are easier with a one pull release but they don't stay together any better than a normal binder.

The rings make a loud noise when opened and closed using the tabs - it is a very strong closure and they are very strong quality

When the binder was full the loose ring would come open.

The rings lay flat on the rear cover so the mechanics are not flopping and getting banged around during use

The binder is not the Avery binder as advertised but the binder is still basically the same because it is 4 inches in thickness and has the easy one touch EZD locking ring.

I had to return the first one as the rings were defective and gapped.

Yes, the rings are easy to open; I guess that is the so-called "one-touch" feature

i dissected it after the top ring failed and it is no different in structure than the regular Avery binders.

The rings were ill-fitting straight out of the box and now, after 2 weeks of use at school, the rings won't line up at all and snag EVERYTHING
