I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this bag. The price was very fair. It's also the perfect size to carry around for everyday stuff, cell phones, magazines, glasses, calendar and all those electronic chargers which you always need to power up your iPods, phones etc.
This bag is way overpriced for what it is! If I didn't need it for a recent trip I would have sent it back. I also found this to be true with luggage I purchased as gifts for Christmas. Price and quality are drifting apart.
I purchased this as gift for my boyfriend and he has used it everyday since it arrived. It is very sturdy and has been used primarily as a book bag. He especially loves all of the pockets. I added the monogram which looks very sharp. This is a nice multi-use bag and well worth the price.
