This is so helpful! I took the plunge and went ahead with the 7rueparadis insert but I am having a problem with the slightly cinched corners as I feel like it is "poking" and making a dent on my B30 TC. Based on these pics, the maitai's corners are constructed differently and does not have "stiff corners" that will dent the leather. I will give them a try! I dont use the pockets anyway! Thank you.

I just bought the newer K35 insert from Mai Tai to replace the older one I have & there is a difference - more structure & no marks on corners of my bag interior. I do not own any 7RP so cannot compare
These are lovely inserts. I still think maitai and 7RP are quite pricey. Going to order one from samorga for my new K28. Don't know if it's any good but at least it won't break my bank. LOL. Their customer service reps btw need some training .... not very nice on emails.
They do claim that their inserts will not make a dent to the bag. And since the inserts are shorter, they are not pushing to the edges inside the bags.
7RP insert inside B30. Not sure if this pic is a good enough reference pic to show how the insert sits inside the bag.
I used to have a Samorga for my B35 (both sold). Samorga makes great felt inserts (I've tried a few felt inserts, Samorga tops that chart). But they do push against the edges of the bag as their inserts are made for snug fit. As I did not own the Samorga and the B35 for long, I'm not sure if keeping the insert long term inside the bag will cause any indentation.
As u keep the insert inside ur bag, do monitor it over time. Enjoy the insert!
I just took the plunge and ordered a Kelly 28 Sellier insert from 7RP (Anemone). I sincerely hope the quality would be great to justify the price. [emoji28]
I always order my inserts from MaiTai but she does not have one for K28 Sellier.
Hello everyone [emoji846] any recommendations for insert for a B40? Besides Samorga?
When it comes to Samorga, anyone knows the difference between the double layer insert and the simple insert? I imagine the double layer is more structured but isn't it too stiff?

Am trying to justify the price of the 7RP compared to D&C, insert which is much less expensive.
Does anyone have input regarding a comparison of trying both of these inserts in their Bs/Ks?
Realize that a 7RP is basically the cost of an H spa for a bag but still cannot seem to fathom that is is so much better than D&C.
Any insight will be much appreciated.

Btw, my Pico is Etain and the Insert is Taupe: I love the combination! This probably won't help you but maybe it will help someone else. I have a Kelly40 and I use a birkin35 maitai insert. It fits perfectly. It kind of confirms to me that a Kelly40 is equivalent to a bitkin35. I am sure a birkin40 is a bit larger than the 35 insert.
