I see all these reviews saying the chain is breaking and talking down. Yes, if the chain is hooked. It literally takes 2 seconds for anyone who can use a small pair of pliers to fix it. The only way to prevent this is to use a much thicker and less attractive chain. Also, the curved edge is an amazing comfort feature. It messed me up. Makes sitting more comfortable. I've had it for years exactly. The chain is almost completely worn out by the connecting loop. Couldn't and wouldn't ask more from a $20 purse.
