I wanted one that would stay standing when placed on a counter instead of flopping over like the LL Bean one that I have
This bag is JUST what I wanted and the color is gorgeous. I wanted one that would stay standing when placed on a counter instead of flopping over like the LL Bean one that I have. HOWEVER. I hung it on the back of the bathroom door pending a trip, put a small travel hairdryer and empty travel bottles in it, that is all, and next time I touched it it fell off the hook. WHY? The hanger is made of flexible plastic! It just straightened out and voila, off the hook. I have posted 2 photos of it here, one as it looked on arrival and one demonstrating how crazy flexible this hook is. Fortunately I had another old toiletry bag that I never use that had a similarly sized METAL hanger on it and I took the plastic one off the new bag and sewed the metal one on. But just, beware. Otherwise this bag is just perfect.And pretty, and now I am looking forward to using it on my next trip. If it were not for the hook it would have 5 stars but that is just so elemental! If you are not worrying about hanging it, get it!!
A couple of days after I left this review the seller contacted me expressing concern about the one criticism I made regarding the hanger. they said that they are, from now on, going to use metal hangers, and thanked me for my suggestion. This is a beautiful bag so due to their responsiveness I increased my rating to 5.
I hathet from reading a current revirw that the promise of replacing the flimsy hook with a metal one was baloney. For lying, down to one star.
