Definitely worth 5 stars... You really never know what you're getting when you order items online and sometimes you just hope for the best.  I'm very impressed with this tote. It's seams are well stitched, the denim material is thick and heavy- much like the denim made years ago- and very durable. It has a faded look but is not a "dirty" look like you see now in some denim. And it has a broken-in worn feel to it.  This will last many years, even with heavy use. It's cute but great for all ages.
