Tote-ally Glad I Got This!
This is a great bag for a free gift with a purchase. It can carry a load of different things and has a lot of space for toy storage. For the price of two dollars each it isn't bad either. If you aren't afraid to use this in public, it's a great option for carrying groceries or trips to the laundromat. Pick one up for yourself in your next purchase. I'm sure glad I did!

The Eden Fantasys Tote Bag is a nifty bag that can be used for a number of different things. Whether you have toys that need storing away, craft supplies, yarn for knitting, or your secret spy gear, this bag can carry and hold a lot of things. If you're brave enough, this tote also makes the paper or plastic option no longer required. That is, if you aren't afraid of sporting your favorite sex shop and its logo all around with you. For a free gift or to add something extra to your cart to qualify for free shipping, this bag is worth both options.
The bag itself is made from a non-woven fabric, which makes me wonder just how 'green' it is. So I did some searching online to see what this meant. What I found was this, courtesy of Wikipedia: Nonwoven fabric is a fabric-like material made from long fibers, bonded together by chemical, mechanical, heat or solvent treatment. The term is used in the textile manufacturing industry to denote fabrics, such as felt, which are neither woven nor knitted. Nonwoven materials typically lack strength unless densified or reinforced by a backing. In recent years, nonwovens have become an alternative to polyurethane foam. Nonwovens are typically manufactured by putting small fibres together in the form of a sheet or web (similar to paper on a paper machine), and then binding them either mechanically (as in the case of felt, by interlocking them with serrated needles such that the inter-fibre friction results in a stronger fabric), with an adhesive, or thermally (by applying binder (in the form of powder, paste, or polymer melt) and melting the binder onto the web by increasing temperature).
What I gathered from this is the process is probably not as green as we're led to believe, but nonetheless the bag is wonderful for carrying or storing things in. There are many different types of non-woven fabrics on the market, and I'm glad to own this one. I have two of these bags now and they're great for storing a ton of my silicone toys, all in their original packaging. While this bag does not have 'The Sex Shop You Can Trust' on it like other Eden advertisements, it does have the company name, so someone could easily look it up if you were carrying this around. This won't be a problem if you're not shy about where you shop, but I of course, am.
The following are the measurements of the bag:
Length: 15-1/2"
Width:15" / 4-1/2"
Height: 15"
It's a decent size and is sturdy enough that I do not foresee it falling apart anytime in the future. The bag is a shiny black, and has Eden in neon green and Fantasys in a bright pink. The words Sexy and Smart are in the bright pink as well, with the '&' in the neon green. Below that in white it says facebook/twitter @edenfantasys. On the back of the back you have three rows of the Eden leaves, in pink and green again, making a pattern with the colors. There are three of each color on each row. Again, below that, you have Eden in green and Fantasys.com in pink.
The inside of the bag is a softer non-woven fabric, which is white and plain. The outside of the bag feels almost like there is a plastic coating of some sort.

Experience
I really love this bag, and I plan to order more when I can. This has been great storage for my toys and my Eden wipes that I have gotten with my orders. I'm really impressed with the quality of this bag for it being a free item. Definitely a must have for anyone needing something a little extra to store their toys, or other items in!
Follow-up commentary
10 months after original review
I still use these totes for my toys or various other things when I need to haul something. They've held up nicely to extended use and I don't see them wearing out anytime soon either.
