I used mine for about a month and have noticed it no longer stands up as nicely. I've quit using it, to be honest. It became more hassle then it was worth.

Yep, I've noticed that too. I use mine almost daily and now it's slouchy, which is a great feature in a bag, not so much in an organizer.

Also, can I just pop that thing into the washing machine? I got a light color to help with darker bag linings and now it's getting a little grungy.

I have two of these by Purse to go. I purchased them on ebay. They work great especially in Hobo bags. I use them in my Louis Vuitton bag as well as my Gucci!

Anyways, thought I would mention it since it's new. She's also advertising that it's reversible now but you lovely ladies have known that it worked better that way all along.

^Haven't had issues w/slouching and have been using them for over a month now.

I just ordered the jumbo for my Gucci Joy Medium shoulder bag. I'll let you know how it fits.

I ordered the Jumbo (15-17 inches) and can transfer it between my Bbag and my Ultimate Soft Chanel. These purses are now better balanced, easier to reach into and sit on my shoulder with much satisfaction. A TOTAL THUMBS UP! Actually I'm able to transfer this nylon case to all my bags, except one is purse is challenged (the Betty in my Avatar) has a split down the middle with a leather panel/storage pocket?

I was going to purchase the purse-to-go, but decided against it after reading how it doesn't hold up well over time. Anybody had their organizer for several months and it's still useful and holding up well?

kai_415 · Jan 20th, 2009, 05:45 PM

Yes, I am wondering the same. I tend to use huge totes that tend to flop over time so I'm looking for an organizer that will help me organize and find things in a massive bag as well as hold some structure. Any recco's are highly appreciated!

Hii! I am also considering the purse to go, but like the girls above, I am worried because some have mentioned that they end up flopping over after a couple months of use? Can a few more people who have had the purse to go for a few months chime in with their experiences? TIA!!

coachadd1ct · Feb 21st, 2009, 11:05 PM

Hello! I too am interested in knowing how well they hold up over time. Please give your feedback!! I'm looking to purchase something to organize my purse and keep it structured. TIA!!!

kings_20 · Feb 22nd, 2009, 11:31 AM

I've had mine for almost a year now and mine's held up great. Mine's the large size and although it's not as stiff as it is when it's new. it's fine when it's filled with your things in it. I love the PTG!!

Mine got floppy after 1 month! Also I find that it bulks all my stuff together too much, so my bag looks fat, rather than the stuff finding it's natural place in the bag. I wouldn't buy one of these again.

Does this PtG make my bag look fat ?

Tarantino · Mar 17th, 2009, 05:59 PM

Yep it's on a ptg diet now : )

molinovich · Mar 17th, 2009, 06:51 PM

I have one in small size and for my not work

jodilee · Mar 31st, 2009, 02:39 PM

I bought a large one for my Tano French Nanny. I loved how it kept everything organized. BUT... I think it took away from the 'slouchy" structure of the bag. So, I took it out. I may use in my satchels. =D I guess it just depends on the shape, size etc. of the bag.

Just ordered 1 Large Tan for my LV Speedys & Hermes Evelyne & 1 Jumbo Black for my Bbags. Thanks everyone for all your opinions, they really helped me deciding the best organizer for my needs. I just got tired of digging into my stuff all the time.
