Yes, mine has the removable middle zip compartment. I also considered interior organizers, but I never ended up doing anything other than topping my stuff off with a silk scarf as like a tiny "blanket" for security. I think it was fine because I also had a smaller pochette and a card holder, and my phone always seemed to be secure. I don't think it would work as an every day style for me anymore but I do still take it out for meetings or anywhere that I need to look professional or carry an iPad or some documents.I agree with the not closing part. Did your baby have the removable middle zip compartment? The one I am eyeing has that. I have several bag organizers that zip so I could remove the one that comes with it and use one of those.
