The medium bag doesn’t stand up open on its own, so when you’re dropping the rope into it, you have to devise a method to keep it standing and open. I hung it on opposite sides with two different carabiners. I’m also not a fan of the inner bag closure, as the draw string gets in the way when I’m trying to stuff the rope in the bag. The small bag, on the other hand, stands open on its own and doesn’t have the inner draw string closure. It’s easier to work with.
Both bags are extremely sturdy.
