Smaller strong nonflappable attachable bag
Just what I wanted for my sister's power chair. It has straps which keep it tight against the top seat rest, which I think will eliminate strain on the top strap.<br /><br />I bought her a heavy duty bookbag for more than $20 last year, and used it with only the top strap over her head rest, and it lasted a year. But it was easy for people to get into, because it stuck out like a sore thumb and everyone knows how to get into those things.<br /><br />I don't expect stuff we put on her chair to last more than a year--nothing ever does, but I like it to look like part of the chair, like it came with the chair, so it doesn't draw too much attention and it looks neater.<br /><br />I like it to match the wheelchair, to not draw attention. It's not as fun or colorful, but her stuff's always getting stolen, so I like to make it as inconspicuous as possible.<br /><br />Most thieves don't immediately know how to get into custom wheelchair assessories, so it buys her some time and protection, especially when the bag is on the back of her chair.<br /><br />Anyway, I also bought it to hold the chair's power charger, so that we wouldn't have to bend all the way down to the bottom of the chair to pull it out of the little compartment they made for that.<br /><br />So now the charger is stored in this new bag at waist level and it's convenient, accessing it in the top zippered pocket.<br /><br />There's only two other pockets on the bag, which are both small and face outward. One right one we used to store a small Totes umbrella, and the one on the left we use to store a small case with a folded up emergency poncho.<br /><br />We use a separate quilted bag that matches her wheelchair that we bought last year for whatever else she has to carry temporarily. That one has a regular tote bag strap and it fits over the head rest easily. She keeps her few valuables in a purse that's attached to a strap around her.<br /><br />We typically have to replace stuff every year, and I'd love to buy her something frilly and fun, but it's just not worth having her stuff stolen.<br /><br />Anyway this particular bag is made out of a thin vinyl kind of parachute material it seems, but I'm confident that it will be strong enough to hold her power charger box and cords. The stitching is strong and the zippers look well made, so I'm confident about the chair bag and happy with the purchase price.
