Alder Briefcase

I've been using this briefcase for a year, and all around I've definitely gotten my money's worth from it.

Last year I was promoted, and with the job change I decided to purchase a briefcase, to help better keep my professional life organized. I didn't want to spend a lot of money, as I hadn't used one previously (so if I didn't end up needing one I wouldn't have wasted a lot of money). So I found myself ordering this one.

For what you pay for it, it's actually a really decent briefcase. Obviously this is not a higher-end, top of the line model, but for it's purpose it does a really good job.

Pros:
The material holds up to wear and tear fairly well.
The bottom of the briefcase includes little "feet" that keep it from being set down directly on the ground/floor.
The combination lock is easy to set and reset.
The "hold open" mechanism seems to work fine for me (although a few other reviewers mentioned it gave them problems).
There's ample space inside for storage! (Presently I'm storing my company laptop, personal tablet, a thicker leather padfolio, two pens, a phone charger, check book and business card holder).

Cons:
Slim to none, you get what you pay for period

In conclusion; if you are looking for a decent beginner briefcase, this definitely will serve it's purpose! If you've used briefcases in the past and are looking for an upgrade- this will most likely disappoint. All in all a decent product for someone settling into their first office job!
