I would consider the favorite to be a staple. It is good to take on vacations because you can wear it crossbody during the day and then use the chain strap at night.

I love my Eva! Bought the DE version last summer and have recently been eying the mono one, too, as I’ve seen several in excellent condition, recently. I prefer zipper closures when it comes to LV bags; less worry about creasing and cracking than with flap bags IMHO. Plus, I find the Eva’s shape to be interesting and unique, and for me, it’s big enough to carry my essentials. I also find it versatile and especially great for travel/nights out … it’s equal parts elegant and functional for me. 
I did! I ended up getting a monogram favorite PM for an excellent price, and I have a Damier Azur Eva on its way to me! Hoping I love them both!
I still have the Favorite and use it to this day. Regret not getting the Eva as well. IMO, very versatile bags and I did not encounter issues with the magnet on the Favorite. Since I am still using it, it will remain in my collection and I consider it a staple in one's collection.
I have the Eva in all 3 prints. It's such great bag for travel...casual enough for daytime and classy enough for evening.
I sold my favorite. It was my first designer bag. I loved the damier azur print but then I started buying Chanel and canvas didn’t seem as luxurious so I sold it.
I never owned the Eva but the big metal plate looks dated imo. To be honest, both the favorite and Eva look dated to me.

I purchased pre-loved Eva's in DE & DA. Sold both less than 1 year after.
My DH wasn't a fan of the plate and continued to urged me to sell after purchasing the pochette accessories, which he argued was very similar.
Also, that noise from the chain got annoying after a while.

Evidently many found Favorite and Eva are very attractive, good condition Favorite and Eva are selling for very high prices and sold fast, I hope you had sold your bag for good prices.
I still have my mono Eva and I love it. Easy to wear, perfect for a night out, I think it can look classy and elegant but also casual. I don't care if it's dated, I can still see myself wearing it in the next 5-10 years
