This case is so strong, light, and pretty (as well as having great materials on the inside), that I have no regrets purchasing this case.
I was hesitant on whether or not I wanted to purchase such an expensive case without even trying it out first. But, after receiving it and using it for a month, I can say that I definitely do not regret spending a little extra money on this case. The case is so strong and sturdy, and the interior is so soft and well designed that I have full confidence in the case when I put my violin in it. On top of that, this case is so pretty and the shoulder straps are so comfortable, not to mention how light it is too. OH the combination locks are super convenient, too, for putting my phone and wallet somewhere safe when I leave for a concert or rehearsal!
