I like this one so much I got the bigger one for myself and gave a friend one for her birthday. They are well made. I use mine to store crafting goodies. Would also work well as a travel toiletry bag. I appreciate the security of the zippers. Nothing ever gets lost. The vinyl on the pockets is very sturdy. I've stored sharp things in the pockets without trouble. Bottom line is this is a great little bag to try out. I doubt you'd be disappointed.
