Okay, so I've been using this MEEDEN portfolio case for about two months now to carry my large charcoal drawings to exhibitions. Here's the real tea:
First impression? The 600D Oxford fabric feels WAY more heavy-duty than I expected. Like, this thing could probably survive a zombie apocalypse. The waterproof coating is legit - got caught in a sudden downpour last week and my artworks stayed completely dry.
The zippers are beefy and smooth... at least they were. Mine just broke yesterday while trying to cram in one last oversized sketch. Major bummer since I really loved the extra outer pocket (perfect for storing my blending stumps and fixative).
Size-wise, the 24x36 fits my large pads perfectly, but heads up - it's super flexible. If you're expecting rigid sides like some art cases have, this ain't it. It actually folds down smaller than an A4 sheet when empty! Convenient for storage but maybe not ideal if you need serious structure.
Final verdict? Great for everyday use if you don't overload it. Just maybe don't trust the zipper with your life's masterpiece during cross-country trips.
