Reviews of Eagle Creek Cargo Hauler Duffel 60L / M

We bought two Eagle Creek duffles to use on a trip to South Africa where soft side luggage without wheels and with size requirements is required. The product seems very well made and attractive; zippers seem very good. We also considered Patagonia competitive products, before deciding, although it was hard to do an exact comparison of features, quality, and actual capacity on line (cubic inch numbers help but only partly). We leave in a week so this is an early review.
