Day-TimerDistressed Look Starter Set Organizer, Undated, 7 Ring, Desk Size, 5-1/2 x 8-1/2", Brown (43184)

I do like this zipper daytimer binder. The outside is maybe a bit sticky.I had to wipe it as it had my fingerprints on it. I liked my last daytime binder cover better which was a navy blue fabric as it was not sticky and did not get dirty, seemed to have some type of protectant The black clips are not as large as my last daytimer and they are not up to the quality of the last binder. They seems quite secure though and I think they will hold up. I would have preferred fabric to simulated leather, which is overpriced anyway. I think I prefer this cover to a colored vinyl that are unattractive in the available colors to me. I would not expect paper to hold well in the front left pocket so this is not as snug as my previous binder. Hope it holds business cards well but have not tried that yet.Prots: This binder accommodates the filler paper size easily.I was specifically looking for a zippered binder so that things do not fall out. The zipper works great. There is no left velcro flap on the front of this binder although it appears there could be from the photo.I did not get a pencil or a ruler with mine. Thee is a lined notepad on the back included which I think is a very nice plus. Nice plastic holder with a zip lock type closure.

Undated calendars with lines in the boxes & monthly tabs: I very much appreciate that feature for this! I did not purchase this organizer for the inserts but I do think they are nice. Compatible with Franklin Covey Classic size inserts & the corresponding 7-hole punch. Fits half letter size pages (5.5x8.5) if you want to make your own inserts. I like not having to trim & waste paper just to get something to fit in here, unlike many popular planner sizes out there. Rings seem sturdy & inside storage pockets probably won't hold a whole lot but they're tight enough so nothing should slide around much. I stick a single index card in each slot as references for the rest of my binder content. Pen loop inside does what it needs to do- I keep a wet-erase marker in there.I would say it's quite large if you're looking for an organizer/planner to keep with you "on the go". I bought this for keeping all of my dungeons & dragons paperwork together and couldn't be happier.

I've been looking for another planner for a few months. That dampens my organizational skills. I usually use a Franklin Covey product. It's high quality and what I'm accustomed to since that's the training course I took through my company years ago. When I considered planners I knew I needed flexibility and the ability to customize. This is why I decided on the Day-Timer with Undated Starter Set. The first thing I did was customize it to include what I use most, in an order that feels natural to me. You can further customize the planner with pages you need (seven ring 8.5 x 5.5 size) that can easily be purchased online (yes the Franklin Covey pages fit. Me: For example as long as it's a seven ring or you have a hole punch, you can just keep moving your address book instead of copying it as long as the data is still valid.) or in from office supply store like Office Depot for example. Office Depot is where I purchased additional Notes pages. The Day-Timer has a high quality look and feel. It's customized just for me. I could've started it this month. However, I'm detail orientated. Therefore I backdated it to January and included all my back-data. It's budget friendly. My new Day-Timer is an exceptional planner. I'm exceedingly happy with this purchase.

For what this planner is offering it is one of the most reasonably priced planners of its kind. The material it is made out of I was expecting and is exactly what I thought it would be and very smooth. The Brown gives a softer look instead of black.They seem to have the market cornered on the inserts however, I've been searching for a good one for a while. I may just pick up the Martha Stewart one at Staples.Favorite part? It Zips. I won't be losing papers any time soon!Good luck finding something better then this at it's price!

Easy to help with organization.

Received this Day-Timer planner about 3 months ago and love it. If you're like me; do not trust putting everything into my phone where it can be lost, stolen, the battery goes kaput or a dozen other scary possibilities, this is for you. On the outside, while it won't ever be mistaken for genuine leather, it still has a great look and feel. Inside, it appears well made with ring binders and card slots. I also purchased a pack of 'daily' planner sheets and set it up to suit my needs with a monthly calendar at a glance and daily planning sheets with ample room for notes. There are tabs for months and alphabetical for contacts and a notepad. There is a handy plastic 'Today' divider so you turn to your daily schedule without searching. My schedule can get pretty hectic at times but this little book keeps me confident that I've got my bases covered and am on time or each appointment.

I needed a planner for a new job, and nearly 18 years ago I had a very expensive Franklin Covey that I miss terribly. This Day Timer version is a WONDERFUL, inexpensive, but not cheap looking alternative. Additionally, I bought the "used" warehouse version for $10 off. While it had one line of writing in the address book section (which white out can fix), the rest was perfectly intact and complete. The distressed pleather cover has nice feel and appearance, the zipper is sturdy, and overall, it was a great buy.

The cover traps oil/water like a magnet so you have to always constantly look at what surface you're putting this on. On top of that, there is only one pen holder on the under side instead of two (one on the front side and one on the under side). For the most part, it does not look like any of the description pictures, and I personally don't like the pages inside, but you can easily change them and use some of the nice planner papers out there (Franklin Covey has some nice ones). Other than that, for the price tag, it's not a "bad" planner and will get your job done for the most part.

Agenda ....il est exactement tel que démontré!Moi, J’aurais bien aimé avoir encore plus d’espace dans les côtés pour garder des factures, mémos , photos etc....À mon goût, plus épais serait encore plus pratique, pour plus de rangement.Bravo, vraiment bien !

La calidad del producto es muy buena, lo único negativo que se me ocurre es que los insertos(hojas) son más pequeños en referencia a la agenda y queda mucho espacio entre ellos. Muy buen producto, altamente recomendable.

Much like a franklin covey

El material de muy buena calidad. Precio inmejorable. Llegó en excelentes condiciones. Si acaso el color es más oscuro que el que aparece en la ilustración

I love the quality of the planner, it looks expensive but actually isn't. The only recommendation I have for the seller is to add more undated calendar pages. I have dated the pages that came with the book but unfortunately there aren't enough, I am shy about two months of pages.
