Amazon.com Review

Made of smooth nylon, this organizer slips discreetly into a purse or briefcase to keep life’s little essentials from getting lost in the shuffle. The main compartment is open on top, allowing quick access to a wallet or checkbook, while two outer pockets fasten with hook-and-loop tabs for security. Sleeves for eyeglasses and credit cards, plus a zippered section for coins, are also included. The organizer measures 9 by 1 by 6-1/2 inches when empty and flat. --Ann Bieri

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple but very functional, July 15, 2007

This organizer is in some ways better than the 'belt' ones with a light and lots and lots of small pockets that you're supposed to coil inside your purse.

This organizer has two full-width center pockets separated by a piece of cardboard (wrapped in nylon). I clip things to that piece of cardboard.

This organizer has 2 half-width pockets with velcro closures on what I call the 'front.' Its third half-width pocket that has no closure is on the 'back.' It is a perfect size for my Palm Pilot (when I used one) and will be a good size for my Blackberry or Treo. The only bad part of keeping the phone there is I can't hear it when it rings and can hardly feel it vibrate.

The third quarter has credit card slots which I use for business cards. My Flash memory stick fits well into the second credit card slot and is protected there (instead of rattling on a key chain by it cap -- now there's a bad design). Below the credit card slots are two 1-inch deep zipper pockets where I carry some dollar coins so that in case I lose my wallet, I will still have a few bucks. I also keep my ear plugs there so they don't rattle around and will stay clean.

This organizer's large central pockets make it a little more flexible than the ones with many small pockets. However, this organizer's fixed-size might mean it will rattle around a bigger purse whereas the 'coil' type organizers can be uncoiled inside a big purse. On the other hand, the coil type are only 3 inches high so your taller items aren't very stable. This organizer has no light, but it's easy and inexpensive to use the tiny lights that can be attached to the keychain.

5.0 out of 5 stars use it every day, love it, January 13, 2006

I'm so glad I found this on Amazon today. I have one that's about 4 years old and it has begin to show wear and tear from heavy use. This item allows me to use different bags on different days (backpacks, purses, etc.) without having to go fishing around for my stuff. Everything is always in the same pocket.

The only think I would change is the color, it would be easier to find things inside if it were a lighter color.

3.0 out of 5 stars I really wanted to be able to use this, December 15, 2009

This review is from: Black Nylon Purse/Briefcase Organizer (Black) (8 1/2" W x 6 1/2" L)

I like the design very much, but had some big problems with function.

No matter which bag I carried this organizer in, stuff kept sliding out of it if it wasn't kept perfectly upright! (The nylon is very slick.) I wasn't able to find things like my car keys and credit card holder a few times because of that -- they slid into, and sometimes all the way out of, whatever bag I used. I wish this organizer had a zip closure.

Second, I had to dig around quite a bit in the two main compartments to find things (maybe because of the dark color, as another reviewer mentioned.) I expected this organizer to help me find things quickly, especially because of its size. Sad to say, it's faster for me to find the same stuff loose in the bottom of my (also black) tote bag.

I wanted to like this; it is the color and shape and size I was looking for. It is very well-made, with sturdy seams, and padded so it protects the contents. I've tried to use it for about 18 months, assuming that I'd soon figure out how to be able to use it successfully. Whatever the cause, this organizer just didn't work for me.
