The quality of these binders cannot be understated - I purchased binders from all of the premium brands available (for my office reno) these are the best by far. In any purchase, I always value both form and function, russell+hazel have nailed it.
Many binders look the same online, yet are so different in reality.
Please allow me a lengthy elaboration - it's worth it!
- They are the most aesthetically pleasing. Both standard and vegan look & feel delightful.
- The exterior is perfectly finished with a highly durable soft gloss casing, that will clearly stand the test of time.
- The smooth protective brass corners are of solid construction and are seamlessly integrated.
- They're not sharp, loose nor to they warp under pressure as others did, saving my surfaces/bags/self from further scratches & damage others caused.
- The 1.5" ring size make a serious world of difference over the standard 1".
- The binder mechanism is solid, smooth, strong, reliable, easy to use & quieter!
- These were the only binders where there was no failure of the bottom ring.
- The rings all continued to secure fully after repeated use and being loaded with materials.
With the other brands, for some reason, the bottom ring would quickly fail & no longer close fully, leaving a small gap in the claw where papers and sheet protectors got caught, came loose, sustain damage, and prevent the binder from closing.
So happy with theses - ordering more.
