We own 6 of these now. The oldest have been in near daily service for about 18 months.Due to the nature of our small business, these are used frequently in multiple vehicles. The dimensions are well designed when expanded or collapsed. When collapsed, they stow easily in the foot well behind either driver or passenger in our mid-size vehicles. When expanded, they fit perfectly on the rear seats. We can fit them parallel to the length of the vehicle or perpendicular. When they are perpendicular, a bit will overhang the seat bottom. But even with an overflowing tote, they ride and wear great.In our Toyota Highlander, I can fit 4 in the back with the third row seating folded down.A typical day might find me buying dozens or hundreds of business and ordinal items at several stops. I fill the totes, and everything from liquids, gels, soft food items, etc rides securely without hard items jostling into fragile items because of the compartments working with shopping bags.Later it's time to ship packages through UPS, FedEx, USPS, etc. It's convenient and impressive to stack these totes full of various sized parcels. Carry them with the handles, or stack them on a cart. Then unload and collapse the tote for the next day.When the bag is collapsed they stack perfectly in our home in the cubbies of the drop zone right by the garage to be ready for the next day.The oldest are around 18 months at the time I write this. Other than some scuff marks, they are wearing very well. I haven't had any tears, pulled stitches, etc. They're also convenient to take into stores. Expand one into the bottom of a shopping cart and fill it as you shop. If you like playing tetras with your items it's possible to stack two totes full of items in a cart with most ordinary items. No bags. No waste.
