Summary:
Too bad this bag received such negative reviews elsewhere in this thread (suspicioiusly similar - written by the same person, perhaps - a salesman for a competitor maybe?)

I love this bag! It's relatively light, sturdy, looks great, has comfortable and easy to use carrying straps, plenty of well-positioned pockets, dividers that allow easy club removal, handy outside putter tube, and stand legs that spring forward or retract quickly and easily with zipper covers for cart use. As for the guy who said "don't waste your money" and the other (same?) guy who said "don't buy it" - they're dead wrong!

Customer Service:
Haven't had occasion to try it.

This bag replaces my Bag Bay EZ Carry, which I liked but not as much as the Sun Mountain Multi Purpose.

Summary:
Good design ideas on paper, awful execution in practice. Putter slot is nice but gets in the way of front pockets (which are useless) and securing on cart. Side pockets too small and zips will be obstructed by and can catch and rip your umbrella ! Carry handle is in wrong place and makes it awkward for loading and unloading from/to vehicles. Legs and base provide poor balance. Cooler pocket good idea but drinks not easily accessible when walking. Straps not the best, and 14 dividers make it too heavy with edge slots too small. Rain hood is a complicated disaster to attach with only 2 buttons and its very insecure. Tries to be jack of all trades but its a total design disaster. Dont waste your money..

Summary:
Nice attractive bag. I bought this bag because I like the features and the 14 individual club dividers. I hate grips jamming on each other and ripping shaft lables. Now, those are things of the past. Even with the net weight of the bag at 7 pounds and a full set of clubs, carrying the bag is still easy and comfortable. Nice features like the hide away legs and lift assist handles on the side. My only complaint is the external putter well tube runs behind the two pockets that are ideal for balls and tees. The tube takes up some of the room and makes getting ball/tees a little difficult but not a big deal. Since there are 14 individual dividers, maybe the external putter well can be made to be removable. Great color combinations and enough pockets to suit most needs.

Customer Service:
None better. I've owned other Sun Mountain bags and replacement parts have been sent without question and free of charge. That is customer service.

Summary:
I've been looking for a bag that serves a dual purpose as cart bag and stand/carry bag and this is it. It sits and stays in the cart,yet is light enough to carry. Plenty of space to store needed things.

Also it has the 14 individual club dividers plus an outside putter well and this works great if it's raining to put the putter in the 14th divider.

The zippered leg is great protection when the bag is in the cart.

Only 1 feature that it needs is a handle on the back of bag, but not a real problem.

All-in-all, a great bag.
