I have used this bag for almost 3 years now. I am surprised it has lasted this long. The zippers are not very high quality (the zipper pull is bending since it is rather thin), and there isn't any padding, other than a slightly padded separator between the two mic stands. Also the balance is annoyingly in the center. When I am carrying this, I have a banjo on my back, an amp on one shoulder, and this on the other shoulder. It would be much easier if this bag were designed so that it naturally hung perpendicular to the ground when it is on your shoulder. As it is, it wants to hang parallel to the ground. This can be rather awkward when on public transit or on a crowded street. The K&M stand for which I purchased this bag is of very high quality, so I was disappointed in this bag's flimsiness.
