This book is exactly what I've been looking for. I needed something for all my printed receipes that I collect off the internet. And this is perfect. The plastic pages are super thick and very clear. My fear at first was that it wouldn't stand up on its own, but so far so good. My only complaint is there are no dividers of any kind to organize the receipes by. But other then that its great!!!

To the other reviewers that were looking for refills. They do make them. I found them for only $4.99 at my local kitchen store.

My daughter-in-law had one of these and I thought it was great, so I bought one. I LOVE mine!! I can finally easily find my favoite recipes AND when I make something I need to refer to the recipe...I've got the recipe standing right in front of me. Makes a GREAT gift too..especially for a bridal shower.

I use a lot of recipes from the internet, and this is the ideal way to store those print out sheets of paper. Before, I would just bring my laptop into the kitchen. The problem with that was that if I wanted to use that recipe again later, (usually for me, months later), I would forget exactly which site and recipe I had used. This is also excellent for those printed out recipes that I get from friends and family. I love it, and am much more organized with this in my kitchen. By the way, it is very solid and stands sturdy. My only concern is that when I have used all 26 pages, I don't think Umbra offers refill pages.

I got this and was astounded with the heavy quality feel to it. I also use a lot of recipes from the Internet and magazines. This holds standard size paper and has de-cluttered my kitchen counter. It has 26 plastic sleeves so you can double the recipes in them, back to back. I would like to see Umbra offer more sleeves, but I may just buy a second easel. It stands up solidly and is easy to read from. I recommend this to any cook who loves to get recipes off the Internet.

I have enjoyed using this recipe easel. No more misplacing printed recipes. This easel makes storing newspaper and internet recipes so convenient. For those who want to order refill pages I was told one easel will hold 52 pages, but I haven't ordered any replacement pages yet to see firsthand. I wish the binder came in other colors that would be more like a recipe binder. I went to my craft store and bought letters to spell out "Recipes" and cooking stickers (like measuring cups, rolling pins, etc) to place on the outside of the binder. My stickers wanted to come off so I also placed clear contact paper on top of the binder to hold the stickers in place. I too wish the easel had food index tabs, but I will make some for the easel when I get too many recipes. So glad I discovered this easel. In the stand-up position, it makes following a recipe so much easier.

this is a great item to hold those pieces of paper, torn out of magazines, hand me down recipes. all compact in one place.

A wonderful way to preserve and display your recipes. Great as a gift, especially if you fill it with your favorite recipes.

I love this recipe easel. I can type up recipes in as large of a font as I need and the easel holds them perfectly. Easy to see - easy to use and it stands up perfectly.

Is made of high quality material and comes with a fair amount of clear insert pages (around 26). Wife loves it! I am wondering though how much it will cost to order refill pages.
