Very easy to unfold and zip into its bag shape. Zippers are good quality and smooth working. Inside small pockets are clear plastic so you can see what is in them. Many zip pockets all around. This will be my traveling artist tote to hold paper, paint pallet, brushes, towels, water bucket, hat and lunch. Light weight but sturdy and stable. I'm impressed with the attention to detail like the strap that holds the top up while the handle is extended. And on the back are pockets for a water bottle and cell phone. And it's attractive in an adult kind of way.
