I bought this bag to hold my oversized pedalboard. It's quite heavy, heavier than the console for which the bag was designed, and this bag can handle it! The wide, well padded Hook-&-Loop internal straps hold the contents secure and the generous padding overall really protects the pedals very well. I can't imagine anything bad happening to a piece of equipment carried in this bag. The strap is strong and the attachment anchors are stamped, power-coated metal - they aren't going anywhere. The well-thought-out design features a 2 compartment front pouch, with 2 H&L straps for cable management! Just what I need! Excellent value for the price, but hey, it's Gator!
