Let me start by saying, I’ve been through my fair share of clipboards—flimsy ones that crack under pressure, ones with weak clips that lose papers, and don’t even get me started on those without pen holders. The Sooez Plastic Clipboard? It’s in a league of its own.

The Good Stuff: First off, the 10% thicker plastic is no joke. This thing feels solid. I’ve dropped it, tossed it in my bag, and even used it as an impromptu fan (don’t judge), and it hasn’t bent or cracked. The writing surface is smooth—no awkward bumps or ridges—so taking notes is a breeze.

The pen holder is where this clipboard shines. It’s not some flimsy afterthought; it’s a spring-loaded beast that grips pens, pencils, and even chunky highlighters like it’s life depends on it. I’m notorious for losing pens, but this loop keeps them secure even when I’m juggling coffee and paperwork.

Real-Life Use: As someone who works in a clinic, I need a clipboard that can handle chaos. This one holds up to 100 sheets without slipping (yes, I tested it), and the low-profile clip doesn’t snag on my bag. The retractable hanging loop is genius—I hook it on cabinets for quick access during rounds.

The Not-So-Good: It’s hard plastic, so if you prefer something with a bit of flex (like polypropylene), this might feel rigid. Also, while the black color is sleek, I wish there were more vibrant options for fun flair.

Final Verdict: Worth every penny. If you’re tired of replacing cheap clipboards or fishing pens off the floor, this is your upgrade. Teachers, nurses, students—this clipboard will outlast your patience. 10/10 would recommend (and already bought a second one).
