Reviews around pocket (5.00 of 5)

  • The clear pocket also has a flap to secure the contents
  • I also love the sturdy plastic subject dividers, and the handy little pockets built into the divider.
  • The first two dividers have nice pockets and even a corner piece that will allow your papers to lie flat while in the pocket
  • It also has nice 5 plastic pocket dividers 2 of those are the thicker notepocket kind that have a pocket in front and 3 are the traditional note protector kind that you can slip a page in them
  • If you are only using this binder for the enclosed pocket dividers it works fine.

Reviews around divider (5.00 of 5)

  • So you get the binder, dividers (which are really nice) with pockets, notebook paper and graph paper...not bad for about $12!
  • I also love the sturdy plastic subject dividers, and the handy little pockets built into the divider.
  • I also love the clear "NoteProtector" dividers that I can put my current reading plan into, and the binder even allows you to put one on the outside of the cover for even quicker access to information
  • I wish they had moved the connection point more toward the middle like a regular binder (round one) or toward the top (D-ring).
  • It lets you give some organization to your files, and I love the plastic dividers with pockets so I can put loose papers in them.

Reviews around thing (4.69 of 5)

  • I love this thing, I've seriously been using it for years
  • I'll never buy a normal binder again, this thing kicks it's trash any day
  • I have always needed a product like this to keep my things nice and tidy
  • love these things, durable, reusable, takes up less space.it might be a pain to have to undo each ring on its own, but I find I dont have to much, there are other ways to store handouts.
  • One semester of 7th grade complete, and I seriously love this thing!

Reviews around idea (4.57 of 5)

  • It's a great idea but the rings bend out of shaped and that interferes with the paper traveling smoothly.
  • Good idea for a flexible binder but the rings should be replaced with the more reliable metal rings.
  • I love the idea of being able to use it like a notebook by folding the cover back
  • This seemed like a good idea, but the plastic rings are a pain to use
  • So I love the idea of this thing, but it doesn't work that well

Reviews around quality (4.53 of 5)

  • all of the dividers broke, terrible quality
  • It does lie flat, the plastic dividers are good quality and make it nice to separate your classes
  • I'm impressed with the sturdy quality of their products.
  • While it has more good qualities than bad, I find that the bad qualities overwhelm the good and make it significantly less useful
  • The quality is exceptional; notebinders have exceeded my expectations

Reviews around notebook (4.52 of 5)

  • It's great that you can flip it around like a notebook as well
  • Going back to small diameter rigid-ringed notebook with flexible plastic cover and all three rings opening at once.
  • Its floppy design together with the semi-soft individual rings (you have to open them one by one if you need a page but don't want to rip it), make this notebook/binder a bit cumbersome to use in time sensitive situations.
  • I have found the PERFECT notebook for keeping my kid's school work organized
  • (Like a notebook), yet the cover is still durable and stiff enough to act as a binder

Reviews around design (4.49 of 5)

  • The nylon spine is a good design feature that helps the Flex stay together
  • It's the same function has the plastic rings, but the huge difference is that the metal binder rings have NO GAPS.Hopefully the Five Star team will hear out the customers and improve the design of it because it'd kill the whole binder market competition if only it wasn't for the stupid plastic rings.

  • There's a flexible plastic flap on the top of each divider so you can secure the top of any papers you put in the divider's pocket, which is a downright ingenious design choice that we've needed for a long time.(2

Reviews around flexibility (3.86 of 5)

  • (In my case, my three-hold punch makes very small holes, so I had to punch them several times to get enough flexibility in the paper so it didn't pull the
  • The Flex uses a thin, plastic cover and backing to give it more…well, flexibility than other binders/notebooks
  • There are some benefits to using these, as their flexibility is good
  • Exterior build quality is nice and the flexibility of the notebook/binder
  • You've got the flexibility and simplicity of a three-ring binder: Paper choices, ease of using a standard hole punch to put anything in it, simple archiving into standard three-ring binders, and lots of accessories if you're that type

Reviews around folder (3.64 of 5)

  • 2 days later at school the ring and the folders broke and ripped
  • The pocket folders in the front look like they could hold a semester's worth of work, while the back "folders" function more like paper protectors
  • each ring individually to add/remove papersIncluded folders have 2 pretty cool, durable folders, and 3 not-so-good flimsy folders
  • Be nice to have all 5 the durable typeI got used to the whole having to unhinge each ring thing fairly quickly, and since you can put hand-outs right in with your notes, the flimsy folders aren't the hugest deal
  • I liked the extra notecard folders, and the small pile of graph paper behind all the notebook paper made me happier than I should have been

Reviews around plastic (3.44 of 5)

  • It is very helpful because it is lighter than a sturdy hard binder and more durable than a flimsy thin plastic binder.
  • You must be careful when using them not to overload them, because the 'rings' are a soft plastic with a pointed connector
  • I like the front and back are of strudy but flexible plastic that doesn't crack like on traditional binders, and I like that I open it up and fold it back around so instead of being traditionally
  • Without the traditional metal or rigid plastic rings, inserting and removing paper is more annoying because rings on the NoteBinder are longer and flexible.3
  • There's a flexible plastic flap on the top of each divider so you can secure the top of any papers you put in the divider's pocket, which is a downright ingenious design choice that we've needed for a long time.(2

Reviews around cover (2.98 of 5)

  • On the plus side, everything you need is in one package (pockets / paper / a very flexible cover).
  • You can fold the cover back like a notebook, and when closed it lays flat like a notebook.
  • (Like a notebook), yet the cover is still durable and stiff enough to act as a binder
  • It's nice to be able to flip the cover all the way around like a spiral notebook, especially being left handed
  • The reason this binder works so well is that the cover flips completely around (like a portfolio) and lies flat so he can take his notes RIGHT IN THE NOTEBOOK on EITHER SIDE without removing the paper

Reviews around paper (2.33 of 5)

  • Fourth, the layout allows you to put paper on top of the notebook as well as inside
  • bought it for school fits nicely in my backpack that is so thin.it has some nice dividers and paper
  • I love how you can insert and take out paper like a binder, but it lays flat like a notebook
  • It expands as more paper is put in but easy to carry around and put things in as needed
  • , make sure you don't give it to someone who might need to hurry and turn a page of loose leaf paper to catch some important notes.

Reviews around page (1.88 of 5)

  • so I was looking for a binder that I could my manuscript drafts in as well as put pages of notes in
  • The other 3 dividers offer full page protective pockets that are easy to open and slide paper inside, then a small flap holds it together
  • I am kinda upset that it makes those pages tear as 2/3 of the holes rip after getting stuck with the rings.
  • The pages on this notebinder are not as hard to turn as I thought, but it is alittle harder than a regular binder.
  • It's the size of a notebook without the awkward tilt/slant of a binder but removing pages doesn't leave paper scraps everywhere and you can put the papers back afterwards

Reviews around bite (1.69 of 5)

  • Over all we really like this idea just hope they can improve on it a bit more for the next one they make
  • I only have a few minor complaints: The lower ring tends to get bent out of shape a bit when using it on your lap (I would assume this is only a right-handed problem), large amount of paper can be a bit harder to do than in a traditional binder, but if you hold down the bottom part of the binder while turning it generally isn't too bad
  • Although guaranteed not to break, they are a hassle to pull apart, and because of the curves, a bit hard to load more paper into the binder
  • It was a bit more expensive than other types of binders, but my teen swears by them.
  • The rings are a bit slow to open in contrast to metal rings

Reviews around time (1.54 of 5)

  • One unfortunate time, two of the rings actually opened up and the papers fell out
  • so we had ot buy a normal binder paper with 4 holes and do the holes by ourselves because the papers are cheap but the sipping is 5/6 times the price of the sheets so it's not affordable
  • Interesting design, looks like it'll last me quite some time
  • (i'm not very patient) and each time I do, one wrong move and all my papers will come loose
  • I would recommend this product to all students, but especially to those that have a hard time staying organized.

Reviews around ring break (1.44 of 5)

  • Contact ACCO Brands consumer affairs at mead.com for a replacement if the rings break
  • No need to worry about binder rings breaking or not being able to squish my "reading material" into the seat pocket in front of me at the last minute, since the binder rings themselves are flexible, and they stay closed, even under duress
  • It won't open the rings, but it does mean turning pages isn't quite as smooth as with a standard three-ring binder
  • My last one did not have the textured finish on the front and one of the rings broke after about 2 years of use
  • I love the plastic rings , every binder I ever had , the metal rings broke

Reviews around hole (1.44 of 5)

  • I love the way this is set up, however, after one week the three hole punched folder pages ripped out
  • You've got the flexibility and simplicity of a three-ring binder: Paper choices, ease of using a standard hole punch to put anything in it, simple archiving into standard three-ring binders, and lots of accessories if you're that type
  • The rings always have a small, 1 millimetre gap between them which causes the holes on papers to get ripped open
  • (In my case, my three-hold punch makes very small holes, so I had to punch them several times to get enough flexibility in the paper so it didn't pull the
  • (I let go of my last one because one hole in one of tabs ripped and one ring is looser than the others)I saw a review talking about how hard it is to flip through pages with more than 3 pages and my note to

  • LOVE, Love, LOVE, Love, LOVE!This is the best of notebooks and best of loose-leaf paper.
  • , make sure you don't give it to someone who might need to hurry and turn a page of loose leaf paper to catch some important notes.
  • It works like a notebook, with loose leaf pages that may be used for taking notes
  • It won't open the rings, but it does mean turning pages isn't quite as smooth as with a standard three-ring binder
  • Disappointingly enough, the binder came with regular loose leaf paper that was not the variety with plastic reinforced holes
