I bought this with the intention of NOT having to carry a purse, umbrella, beverage bottle, or anything else as the walker requires two hands. I am a substitute teacher and took it to school with phone, phone charger, beverage, lunch, newspaper, and almost everything that had been in my purse. There were still places I could have put things. I went into a restaurant and left the walker in my car but unhooked the bag and used the top handle. Most convenient.See full review
