I purchased this bag in December 2009 and it has stood up really well.  It is very spacious and I love it.  It is also very sturdy.  One thing though, the straps are a little hard on the shoulders if you have a lot of stuff in the bad and your blouse/shirt does not have in shoulder pads.  But overall a well made bag and I would recommend it if you need a bag for your laptop, work supplies, charger, cell phone, umbrella, water bottle, you name it, it will hold it.  A very versatile bag.  I love the fact that it comes as a set of three, you really could not ask for more than that. I am very pleased with my purchase.
