Nice design

"I love the size and design of the bag. The different compartments are great. They allow me to keep things organized. I also love that the tote does not feel heavy even though I have quite a bit of items inside…"

Love this tote

"I am a Briggs & Riley fan. This is not my first purchase. As always, the color, quality and design are exactly what I needed."

— Press E. (5/5)

Great, but its not secure

"This bag is a fantastic size, great quality with great compartments that fit more than I expected and perfect for business or personal travel. I like a lot! But I had to rate it a 3 because the only top closure is a snap button and when I purchased this, there was not a clear picture of the top of the bag and I didn’t realize there was no zipper. The big fits perfectly under an airline seat but you have to tilt the bag on the side for airport security and then items fall out. I tried going back on the website to double check the description and pics and the item was no longer offered. Perhaps it was a seasonal Black Friday clear the warehouse item."

— Barbara D. (3/5)

Nice size for carryon bag.

"Nice size for carryon bag. Especially like the ability to attach to rolling carryon."

Essential Tote

"Love it! Just took it on a ship cruise traveling the coast from Croatia to Athens and it truly was essential! I also received compliments from a cabin stewart who inquired where I had bought it and I directed them to the website where it was on sale! I already had a carry on and also purchased the small quare carryon to compliment this essential tote. Exceeded my expectations!"

— Trudy D. (5/5)
