It's larger than I thought it was going to be, but I need the room anyway.  So far all zippers working fine and no straps have pulled out so am hopeful will last me quite awhile.  My regular purses too heavy and I think affecting my back/shoulders/etc, so wanted to switch to back pack purse.  Decent looking so I have no problem using it for most all occasions. I do have to make sure all zippers are shut and the pulls to one side when closed so nothing spills out when I throw it on my back, or even just carry it by strap, as the openings are very wide & contents could easily spill out  if not fully zipped closed.
