This is probably my favorite purse I've ever had.  Did it last forever?  No, but my purses never do because I am pretty hard on them.  I was incredibly pleased with this for the money I paid for it, and I am coming back to this link today to buy another one.  I love all the pockets, and it carries well.  I would say it had the greatest utility out of any handbag I have used.  I have no hesitations in recommending this!
