Poor Design
By Bunny
from Fremont County, CO
About Me Midrange Shopper
Comments about Desktop Address Book Black:
I used to have address books like this one and have been searching for a similar one for years. The other ones I had were a little bigger; The binder rings were also bigger; Could open them flat from the first page, the middle, or the end; Could add endles amounts of new pages. This address book wouldn't even hold the pages it came with and still be able to open properly, turn pages, and add additional pages. It's a poor excuse for a replacement of my old books.

Book was just what I was looking for.

Organizing my mailing lists and phone numbers. So easy to do with this book.
Great idea but...

About Me Budget Shopper
This is a great idea but, the spiral diameter is too small. If you fill the spiral up more than 4 times, you do not have room to put in any more inserts. The spiral diameter is 1" it should be a minimum of 2".

Reliable Old Technology
By Aunt Bea
from MI
I agree with other reviewers that the rings should be bigger. Impressed with the heavier paper used for the book. Blank side increases storage. I am using mine in conjunction with my Dymo printer. Current labels need a bit of a snipping before inserting. Using this for all addresses, internet information (passwords, et al). Had everything in my Microsoft Contacts but have lost those files so many times I'm embarassed to ask people for the information again. The rings definitely need to be larger, just make sure the refills will fit when you enlarge the rings!!! Had an older book like this but couldn't find refills. So glad to find this one.
Only one drawback for me
By Judy the Organizer
from Williamsville, NY
I owned one of these years ago & loved it. Couldn't find a replacement anywhere except at Miles Kimball. I just wish the rings were larger so it would hold more addresses. I ordered extra filler sheets so that when I need to change an address I can do so. But you really can't put more in there than the number of address sheets it comes with. A larger model for desktop, with larger rings for greater capacity, would be excellent, and the address sheets could then also be made larger to accommodate the multiple phone numbers, e-mails, etc. that people have these days.
I would buy this again, love it.

Use it everyday, best thing about it, is can make changes without making mess of it.
doesn't hold enough addresses
By qrce
from south haven, mi
by the time you insert 100 addresses the book is completely full and hard to add new cards at the beginning and the end of the alphabet.
I would recommend this product to anyone
By Writer El
from Spokane, WA
I use this item mainly because it is easy to find the addresses I am looking for and changes can be made by just discarding the old one and inserting a new one.
One of the best books I own!
By Jewelry Lady
from Arlington Heights, IL
I received this book as a gift about 35 years ago; the binder is still intact, and I have been able to change, add, and subtract listings with no problem. My book is still neat, and I'm so happy to be able to finally find the refills again. Haven't seen them in many years. Thanks, Miles Kimball, you've made me very happy.

This book is just the right size for my shelf, yet is easy to read and find pages.
