The case is soft on the exterior, has pockets and decent carry handles. The inside is “velvet” (probably synthetic) but it covers semi solid panels which is nice, as it affords the bassoon protection. The inside also has compartments.
The zipper closure is a question mark, but I would say they will be okay so long as modest careful use is employed.
Good buy under the circumstances.
Update: the zipper pulls are a bitt flimsy. The case is closed with one zipper with 2 pulls like most suitcases. One tab has broken completely: the part of the zipper that the pull attached to has broken off. The second tab also pulled off, but we were able to put it back on and used pliers to close the gap n the part of the zipper it attached to so it should be ok for a while. I've instructed my son to be gentle with it.

One concerns: the zippers are quite snug and a bit rough around the corners and I fear that over time they may break or wear out (I have seen this too many times with coats and suitcases). However, I did write to the company with this concern. Their reply was prompt and courteous, advising me to rub candle wax over the zipper, and to contact them if anything goes wrong. (case is warrantied for 5 years)
I shall update this review in a year to let you all know how it is holding up. But so far I am enjoying the case immensely and my colleagues are getting tired of me bragging about how inexpensive it was.
