does this stay open like the thirty-one gifts large utility tote?

The fabric is very soft sided...I initially wrote in my review (which I need to go back and update) that it worked great as a laundry basket. It does not. It is in a constant state of flat...even with clothes in it.

Hello, Mr. Lime: Actually, I purchased this bag as a gift, so it hasn't yet been opened by the recipient. However, the packaging was wonderful, and it truly appeared quite plentiful and abundant. Therefore, I do not think you will be disappointed. Best regards, DAME HILDA VAN WINKLE

Yes, it's very similar. I have a couple totes that I purchased from 31 before I found these. They are very plain next to the 31 totes, but are easy to "dress up" with scarves, pins, etc. Also (and this is my favorite part), the top a tote covers fit perfectly!! I just purchased another one to gift to my friend who wants to keep stealing mine. :). It is the same size as the large tote from 31. I have to disagree with the other reviewer. I have one in my closet that I use as a laundry basket and one to theow in shoes. With all 7, I have never had a problem with them being "in a constant state of flat". Hope this helps.

When you open it, it stays open without holding it open. Then you can close it.

Yes it opens for storage of small items. However, you have to hold it open. It will not stay open. This makes it difficult for toddlers to play by putting toys in and taking toys out.

yes, it closes with a zipper. The zipper is somewhat flexible; if your items push a little further up than the bag allows, the zipper allows for a LITTLE bit of room for that.

Yes. I filled it with gifts for a couple getting married and used it instead of a gift bag. It comes folded up, and you just have to open it out. It's made of a canvas material.

No, it will not stay open, unless you block it with something. it is very easy to open, one hand is all you need.

Yes, mine stays open... I have mine sitting right up against a wall and in that position it stays open..however if it is positioned a few inches from a wall you push on the locking hinges and it locks open..locks on both sides.I like mine. I am a heavy gal and it supports me very well. I have many bags of orchid supplies in mine..lots of storage space.

No it does not but they stayed closed. I have not had any problems with my bags coming open.

Yes, there is a small latch that you can switch so the lid stays open. Very useful for taking the bag out or putting in a new one

It does not stay open until it's about half full. Wish I would have thought to ask your question before I purchased it.

No, it does close. I wonder if it would stay open if I loosened the strap that goes around it. But alas, little league is between seasons, so I'm not using it right now.

I have owned this chest for about 10 months and we mainly store linens in it so we don't open or close it much, but it stays open when we do open it. It hasn't slammed shut on us yet. That said I would search for something with some sort of safety latches for her.

No, open and close only...really easy to put together and fold up and down for carrying or storing.
1846505
yes, sure. It's a really amzing confortable bag: light but also able to contain number of stuff (and device also).It has a button to close it, an external pocket with zip. I bought it for me and then other 4 as gifts and they all got exciting comments (and I see people using my gifts!!, this means it met their needs). I really recommend it.

actually it depends on the things that you have inside the bag.the material is soft so it doesn't hold up. I usually have clothes and diapers and all sorts of stuff inside the bag, so when I take out one thing, the bag is able to stand open. if you only have a few things, then most probably it will just flop... hope this answers to your question. :)

Yes the cover stays in place when open or closed. Note, it's not magnetized.

It closes with magnets? I carry mine in my purse and have never had a problem with its coming open.
