My usage of this product might be a little unique and might seem like it doesn't apply to other people, but if you read how I'm using it, you might understand better if it will fit YOUR oddball usage too.I bought this to use for keeping piano music for an entire church service straight. Some of the music needed is in the form of looseleaf copies of hymns that are an odd size, like 7"x13" turned horizontal. So they don't fit in a regular 3-ring binder at all. The other music needed mostly does fit neatly in a 3-ring binder, but page turns can be a real bear at times. Many of the songs that are multi-page are normal 8.5"x11" size, so I can fit two pages in each sleeve, meaning 4 across at one time. This eliminates most of my page turns, since most songs are 3-4 pages. Using this instead of a binder or folder or stack of loose papers and books is GREAT. I can put every bit of music I need in there in exactly the right order needed, and just keep flipping through the service. Strongly recommend. Also, the pages load from the center at the spine, so once it's loaded up, the pages are NOT going to come out on their own. No worries there.But you get what you pay for, and this whole thing is pretty flimsy. The sleeves are so delicate that I slightly ripped the first one that I tried to fill. It's still usable, and I just taped those small rips at the edge back down, but still. Filling the sleeves is a delicate process. Not time consuming, just delicate. I learned that if I'm putting two pages into the one sleeve, get the first page in there and then use the second piece of paper to nudge the first one all the way to the end, as opposed to shoving my hand all the way in there. To remove without tearing, I'm using small kitchen tongs I already had, again to keep from shoving my whole hand halfway into the sleeve, which is what caused the rip.Also the whole cover is very thin and flimsy, like a plastic pocket-folder and nothing more. It won't be protecting whatever you put in there very much, so don't plan on shoving this into a backpack or anything like that. It will not keep stuff straight if you don't take care to always carry it carefully.For me, trying to put it on the music stand of a piano or keyboard, the whole thing is a bit too flimsy to be absolutely perfect. The cover isn't firm enough to fully support its weight to stand up straight (I'm not sure if I'm explaining this right), so what ends up happening is that on a piano with a deep/wide music stand, this is PERFECT, but on a keyboard with a narrower/shallower music stand, the pages need some extra coaxing to stay on the stand without drooping. Again, not sure this applies directly to very many people, but should give you an idea how sturdy the whole thing is.If you're really planning to use this for collecting and displaying art, I'd say it will work great assuming you're loading up the pages once and then leaving it sitting on a table or a shelf where it can lay flat (too big to stand on a bookshelf the normal way). If you're planning to use this for a presentation of some kind, again I think it would work great. But if you're planning to use it anything like what I described (taking things in and out of the sleeves frequently and looking at the contents on a not-flat-surface), this may not quite be the thing for you long-term.I'm still giving it 4 stars because I think something priced this low isn't pretending to be something it's not. Ultimately, it's also for me a HUGE upgrade over how I was juggling my music before I tried this. So overall, I think it's great, just not perfect all the way around. I will continue using it for a while at least until I either tear it up taking things in and out of the sleeves or until the drooping pages/narrow music stand glitch drives me crazy.

I have these in many different sizes. I use them for coffee table books as well as storing my artwork outside of my sketch books. The cost is fair, quality is good, and they protect my art as intended.

I go to conventions and the artists sell prints which are 11x17. I have addicted to buying these prints. So whatever prints I buy, I place in this folder. The Cover is made out of a rough, but malleable plastic so the prints don't get heavily damaged. The holders for the folders are big and simple to place just open and set the prints, easy. I would recommend this folder to anyone who may be selling prints or buying prints, as it keeps the artworks/prints in top condition.

Nice size but the book is very flimsy. I may use for crafts. Not sure I want to trust family pictures in it.
