I am a teacher and I bought this to store a multitude of extra borders in my classroom. I have many 2 inch width borders that fit perfectly in here. When it was filled, I rolled it up without anything feeling like it would fall out and the velcro straps seemed to hold it together well. This must be rolled and unrolled on a flat surface otherwise there is risk of borders falling out. This was not a problem for me and I believe it was a great buy!
