KOKUYOCampus Smart Ring Binder, A5 Light Blue Refillable Binder Notebook 20 Holes with 10 Extra Loose-Leaf Paper, Up to 25 Filler Papers for Work & Study, Japan Import (RU-SP130LB)

So I just recently heard about this company and wanted one... imo I feel like it's a little pricey so I first ordered a pack of their business notebooks/compass journals or w.e. they r called. I finally gave in a bought this one and I bought a clear one and also purchased a pack of the dotted lined paper, a pack of the graph paper, and I bought the double pack of the printer paper they have for these smart binders. I use one for work bc I work from home and use Scripts so I have one with all my scripts in it and the other I use for every day stuff like notes, to-do list, shopping lists, budgets, etc... They feel like they are well made it does take a couple times to get used to how it opens. Only complaint I have would be I feel like it doesn't hold enough paper. I have just purchased the one that holds 120 pages so we will see how that one is when it gets here. I would recommend this for middle schoolers or high school even college bc they are small and compact they don't take up much room but I would also warn that even tho the plastic rings feels sturdy u still want to have caution when and if u will also be carrying a laptop and hardcover books in ur backpack as well bc I feel like if ur too rough with your stuff u may have issues either with breaking the rings or possibly causing the rings to not close right... I haven't had any issue with the binging part of it but I also have them sitting on my desk and that's it I'm not taking them in and out of a backpack or anything.

Love it: quality paper, can add and take out paper easily, easy to open and close, looks elegant, very light weight.

Ordered B5 size in dark pink. Durable and has held up well even after 6+months of regular use

The ring mechanism is nice and easy to use once you understand it, but it prevents you from folding this over so only one page is exposed. It also limits the amount of sheets you can have to around 25 total. Anything more than that and the rings start to get caught on the paper and it's hard to turn pages.

Kokuyo binders are the only ones I’ll use. This is probably the most comfortable and ergonomic notebook I’ve ever used.

After close to a year of consistent use of these notebinders, they have become my standard for notetaking!I've tried many times to get the best of both worlds between a notebook and a binder, and this has been the most successful one at getting there.

My favorite , thin and durable also cute

i loveeee kokuyo products and their paper, and i bought three of these for school. the first time this pink one came in, the entire right corner have little indents that ruined the aesthetic of the notebook. so i returned is and got another one thinking it would be fine. but with this one, three of the binder rings were completely dented apart. the photo is actually after i tried my best to put them closer together. after the photo, i tried to again and was more successful, but one of them ended up breaking. i shouldn’t have even had to do that. i’m just super disappointed, id rate it 5 stars if i didn’t have this experience. i don’t even know if i should or can replace it again it’s just annoying at this point.
