I love the size and dimension of this bag. For the price (although shipping is a rip off), it's a fine bag. But the fabric has a waxy plastic feel to it, so if you're expecting Lands End Quality, go buy a Lands End bag. I bought these for my bridesmaids and one for myself. I plan on taking mine on my honeymoon to carry a water bottle, book, sunglass case, sunscreen, CD player, etc. and I think it will work well for that.
I'm still not sure that I want to give these as a gift, however.
I am happy with this bag (I got the pink and white one). It is a lovely color, nice size, durable and good price. It comes with an outside pocket and I received it quickly. My only complaint is that almost $7 in shipping is being charged for a light tote that was $3.99, otherwise I highly recommend this

I must say first off, this bag is very cool looking and the different compartments alone would give this bag 5 stars. There are 2 dividers within the main storage space giving you 3 compartments to hold stuff. Then there is also a small pouch on the front that snaps open to give you yet another pocket and 9 pen/pencil holders.
There is one main drawback that brings the bag down one star. The strap. As a few other reviewers have stated, the strap could definately stand to be wider and even a little longer. However, that is not that big of a problem. I would say the biggest is that the strap and its attachments don't feel or look very sturdy. I would definately recommend that this bag only be used for light or moderate weight hauling. Don't stuff it with heavy books.
That being said, it can still hold lots of stuff, just be careful.
One last bit of info, the bag itself isn't made out of a heavy sturdy canvas. It is very lightweight and flexible (100% cotton). This definately adds to its lack of strength, but it also makes it softer if you prefer or even care about that.
Overall I definately think this bag is worth the purchase.
