I teach third grade, and have several students who were doing homework, but losing it before it got turned in... I have a pocket now for each, and they turn everything in (along with a student agenda signed by a parent) every morning. It's incredibly convenient! I can see if mom or dad signed, grab the papers, and sort them for correcting into pockets (at the top, where the third graders can't reach!) The agendas are a bit heavier than a spiral notebookand these pockets have been holding up very well so far... I like that they hang from metal grommetsI was able to screw in some hooks, but think I'll be bringing the electric drill and installing something more permanent. I have 29 in my class, so I bought three, and have extra pockets for forms, late assignments, and four different papers. A coworker also ordered these after she saw mine and really likes them.

I like the idea of the organization and it would be fine if you were just needing to put a file folder in each pocket. It didnt seem sturdy enough to hold much weight in each pocket. I was needing something a little more sturdy. I baught it to organize my homeschooling projects for each day but found that there was no space for anything but maybe 15-20 sheets of paper and I was hoping for more of a pocket.

I bought this item for our home. We are a family of five that is tight on space, and the papers keep our dining area cluttered. I had gotten a mail sorter, but found that with only 5 slots, it was getting overstuffed. Not to mention all of the surface space it took up. We needed a hanging option. I looked around and found this!! I just hung it up, put file folders in each section to keep papers from curling over or falling out (not to mention make it easier to grab the Bills to be paid folder and head to the computer with it, as an example), and we are good to go! It seems sturdy, and hung up nicely using the grommets. Now we have slots for each family member, and slots for the massive quantity of school papers that come home as well. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of how it looks. In a school setting, this is perfect. In a home setting, I would prefer to have more color options. I looked for something like this that was geared towards home use, but didn't find one. That one thing aside (which is minor, as it is marketed as a classroom organizer), I am very pleased with this purchase!!
Honest reviews on Educational Insights the Space Place Classroom Organization Center
I purchased two of them and used colored pocket folders which fit inside nicely and won't allow any papers to fall out the sides when I remove them from the organizer. I use one for me to put the day's papers in and the other (with coordinating file folder color)for the students to put their completed papers in. It has allowed me to clear my desk and counterspace from other file type organizers.
