Question for anyone that has the behind seat bag
I've been thinking about buying this bag but wonder if it is usable and worth the money. If any of you that have it would comment on this I would appreciate it.

Useful for maximizing capacity
It's kind of an odd shape, and I feel a little strange carrying this awkward-looking thing through posh hotel lobbies, but it's a good way to get the most out of the space behind the seats. I'm 6'2" and I don't put the seat back so far that it contacts the bag.

That bag will be very usefull. Wife and I take a lot of weekend trips, and she puts her makup bag, cooler, and food in the SL bag.
Just put towels/rags under the pastic feet.

My only negative concern is: the bag is so large, and if stuffed fully, it can become very heavy to carry.
Positive Note-- I use it frequently to stow things even on short trips---to get "loose" material tethered, and out of the way in cabin; yet is very easily accessable if you need to remove something for immediate use at any time w/o going to the trunk proper.
