"I have a set of these suitcases in green. I will agree with the other reviewers in that they are thin cardboad stitched together, but they have held up well for me. I have had them for about 7 months now, and my son (almost 2) stores crayons/markers, small toys, in them. I keep them on a bookshelf (where they look super cute!) and bring them down when we're ready to play. They certainly would not hold up to a lot of rough play or kids stepping on them, but they have held up well for me so far."
