Pros: a light-weight, medium sized purse.  The purse and pockets are organized almost perfectly for my travel needs.  There are two exterior snap pockets that could hold maps or brochures, slim paper things one picks up while traveling.  A zippered side pocket has a clasp closure, again containing a slim, deep pocket, I will probably use for my phone.  A slim, but spacious inside compartment opens amply from a top to side zipper.  It contains perfect purse space with a built in wallet and two pockets ideal for a passport and travel tickets.
Cons: It does not seem durable enough to really be theft proof. I chose this model because I really need a water bottle holder in a medium sized bag.  I have no idea how they were able to photograph even a small bottle in the side holder; it is ridiculously inadequate.  I don't have time to find another purse before my trip so I will keep it and probably put a water bottle in one of the snap closure pockets.  The side holder is adequate to hold a collapsible umbrella, which I'm pleased about.
Lastly, the strap where the hardware presses against one's shoulder can be very uncomfortable. Length of the shoulder strap is adjustable so perhaps the metal piece can be adjusted to be in a less sensitive spot.
