Watch out! The case is not closed with a zipper, but the "lid" held together by a rubber band. Otherwise, I'm very happy with the product: Attractive design, well-made pockets, from which not slip out the CDs and not decay after repeated use in their individual parts (and I am so far not necessarily handle it with care ...). Compact, sturdy and practical to pack to take away or to put it on the bookshelf. Exactly what I was looking for.
