Review on Fasmov Removable Binder Wallet Using by Kirt Phillips

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Portable large quantity, but please be patient. or don't buy!

I love and hate these folders! Pros: I love them because they hold a lot of discs and are strong enough to be moved around. These are our basic requirements if we want to bring DVDs. . They compress easily when fully loaded with 400 discs. We had amassed a "collection" of over 1,000 discs, so having that large capacity was a must. With that in mind we bought three of these covers so we could take the CDs around in our caravan and have a collection to use in the living room downstairs as well as the cinema upstairs. We've been using the binders for a few weeks now and they work well for transporting large quantities of discs. We don't lug around dozens of smaller folders, that's great. The materials for the zipped body and the binding itself also seem quite durable for the price. I love paying for quality but I also love good deals and that's the sweet spot for me. The Bad: We found a few bugs that are really annoying if you're not willing to use them with patience. The staples slip, causing the pages to fall out of one or more staple holes. (Good news: I haven't encountered this in transit, only when turning the page.) We were partially expecting that, but an additional annoying detail is, that the pages do not lie flat due to the proximity of other folders Clips. You can't just split the sides and align the clips when you're in the middle or at the end of the stack. I've included an image showing how the pages cover the clips as you flip through multiple pages. So to fix a clip you need to find all the sides to get to the clips and try to hold onto them while everything lines up. That leads to a second annoying drawback: the staples are so close together that the pages don't lay flat after you've flipped through the first few pages on each page. My suggestions: As you turn the pages, work the front pages down between two sets of binding clips (see pictures), to easily see the discs on each side of the binding on the back. You can access the clips if you do so while turning the pages. Furthermore, pay attention to the clips when moving the sides. You'll feel the pages start to slide even before they leave the clips. Be patient and don't rush things. It's also useful to keep track of how many pages you're moving at once. If you try to move more than 3-4 pages at a time you will break the clips and pull some or all of the pages out of the folder. Conclusion: I would still buy it again given the price and the extras. large capacity. This is what I need and it just works for our very large DVD "collection". But I have to be quite patient when I use them, and I'd happily pay a bit more for the clamps to have some sort of locking mechanism (like a twist lock) to keep them from slipping off.
