Great size to be stored in any bag carried with you. I do recommend using the drawstring storage bag that comes with this bag holder because the metal can lose some of its luster and look a little tarnished. The metal does seem to hold up and can support my large crossbody bag with a lot in it. It can sometimes need some situating because it occasionally shifts its grip on whatever table or flat surface you have this hanging on, but I'm sure that is from a combination of factors such as weight of bag and material it grips. So far, very well pleased! Practical, compact, sleek, and strong. The red decal, however, did come off after a couple uses, you could either super glue it back, leave removed and get rid of residue, or get creative and decorate the top any way you please.
