Ease of access. Easy to get in and out of. I thought I just had to have a Kelly, finally got one, but was never crazy about it. It was a pain to get in and out of. I ended up selling it. It was probably a year later before I got my Peekaboo. Plus I am kinda over the whole Birkin/Kelly thing. Have sold all my Birkins. In fact, I don't have any Hermes bags at the moment.krawford, if you don't mind my asking, what is it that makes you love the Peekaboo more than the Kelly?
