Ease-of-use- a. Cleanliness- everything can be wiped down or laundered. Great turquoise colour too. The mesh withstands sharp claws. However, the features are not as outstanding.

Mesh top has two zippers that unzip 350 degrees. Sleeve to attach to suitcase handle to carry in airport. Open pocket slips over a suitcase trolley handle and can accommodate a car seatbelt.
