To be sincere I loved this bag, however to do a good review I have to recognize some things about it: 1) it is really heavy comparing with other bags the same size (not a problem for me, because the material of the tote let you carry everything you want no matter its weight, the laptop for example); 2) after some couple of months of use it, the handles melted from the shores, cause it has something like a black plastic, a kind of protection on the handles' shores (I think it happened because of the really hot weather of my town and not because of the heaviness of the tote). I loved it ,and in spite of the comments I mentioned, I recommend it.
