Review on Roma Genuine Leather Organizer Handbag by Sidewinders Murphy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Note the zips

Well I like it except I can't get my phone at this point unless I take it out of the holder which is a bit was funny because it slipped out. This little latch is on a wide elastic band, which is fine except the part that sticks to the bay is very stiff. So I ended up with a very stiff clasp attached to a large elastic. Not impressed. I keep the pens there with a small bottle of hand sanitizer in the middle to keep the pens in place. The rest of the compartments are fine, except for a zip pocket in the side pocket. It's so weak it's practically useless. Nevertheless, I put my cell phone in one of the two large compartments, house keys, checkbook, sunglasses and calculator in the other compartment of the same size. This left me with other outside compartments for other things and I could put things in order. What doesn't work are the pulls for the zippers. I'm not the pull and pull type, but almost immediately one of the bars came loose. It was on the main zip on the side of the bag. The next day, one of the poles in one of the large compartments came loose. What I did the first time was put the small rod back in and then using hand cutters to press down on the small prong to keep the rod from coming loose again. The second time I tried other methods, but ended up using hand scissors. This was still very difficult as there isn't a good way to position something to press the pin that should hold the zipper when someone pulls on it to zip up. My biggest concern was the possibility of losing traction (leverage); because trying to archive without it will take a long time since there is no good way to get it. Just thought this information might be helpful. The ideal would be to make sure the draw is secure before putting anything in your purse. Or can the manufacturer do that? I gave it four because it seems good for an expensive wallet. It looks good and was exactly the size I wanted. Hope that helps.
