You can fit a lot of different items in this bag. Not only is the main conpartment able to fit records but you can fit equipment in there as well. The side pockets are great for holding miscellaneous items like cleaners and 45 adaptors. The backpack straps aren't the most comfortable but the single shoulder strap and handle loops are good alternatives. I gave this to a friend who actually uses it within his home shuttling albums form one area of the home to another. He keeps all the albums in the basement with one player but has another player upstairs.

This bag is large. It fits a good amount of record and is very durable. I haven't had any tears or issues with my bag. The back-pack straps are a bit uncomfortable but of course you got a shoulder strap which works fine.

A big plus for this bag is that you have multiple ways to carry it. This helps depending upon other equipment you have to hold or even if you have to travel (for gigs or record-digging).

I got this for my birthday for my record collection and it works to bring the records to and from college and the records doesn't take much room in a limited spaced dorm room. It is easy to carry on your back and its doesn't tear when moving it to another location.

I have no idea how this could have happened. The bag came in a plastic bag, but was covered in a milky, semi-oily, moldy sort of residue - as though it had been stored in a damp basement. To boot, the carrying/shoulder strap came broken. Because I needed the bag immediately, returning it was out of the question - or at least without cleaning and using it first.

A solid 20 minutes later with a heavy does of Soft Scrub and an overnight dry and it was fine. But I was stilled rather grossed out and have no idea what was on the bag.

The bag itself is great. I'd give it 5 stars. Heavy duty, well constructed - lots of storage and well padded where it needs to be. I had a Technics bag and this is far superior. So maybe it was just the seller.
