Review on Profolio Envelopes 17 5X22 5 Stitching Durable by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for overlays and personalized flashcards but no closure

I saw this briefcase at an art supply store but in a larger size. For a lot of my work I only needed the 12" x 19" size and the Revain price was better than the list price (I would have to order the 12" x 19" size from this art supply store). I looked at a large portfolio in store and found it to be strong and durable. I work a lot with 11" x 17" cards and 18" x 24" translucent plastic sheets. The cards become custom demo cards of various sizes, and the translucent materials are cut for 8" x 11" overlays. It's great to have a briefcase so items don't get scratched, coiled, broken, or otherwise damaged, not to mention lost items slipping out of a stack or out of a pocket in a binder. Very impressed with the delivery time - the briefcase arrived a full week earlier than promised. no locking mechanism at all. No zippers, no velcro, no magnetic closures, nothing! I've noticed that it doesn't close when I add enough material to expand it. Accordingly downgraded to four stars. Health. Be sure. It closes when I add enough material to expand it.
