I've only used it once. I bought it to put my clothes and other things in for travel, but it was so cute that I couldn't bring myself to use it... I've started using other things more often, and I've come to prefer the more "shaka-shaka" (nylon-like) type, so I'm selling it. It's still in beautiful condition and can be used for a long time. It's large and has a good gusset, so it can hold a lot. Recommended for children and mothers alike.
