I bought this for the women's march. I have only used it once, but no major problems. I could fit way more in it than expected: an adult sweatshirt, scarf, snacks, wallet, and water bottle all fit. It is functional and does the job. The side pockets are not large enough for a reusable water bottle, but a disposable plastic one might fit. The backpack sits up a bit high on the back, so keep that in mind if you're picky about where it rests on your body. The zippers feel a little cheap, but I was gentle and didn't have any problems with them.
