The bag provides good amount of storage. I do strobist type lighting so I use it for storing my lighting stands and accessories. It comfortably holds (2) 8' Impact light stands, (1) larger Manfrotto tripod, (1) monopod, and (3) collapsible umbrellas. It can be carried by sturdy handles or by a shoulder bag, both work very well. The top opens up fully making loading and accessing equipment very easy. It is zippered with the zippers on both sides, the two sides are opened at the same time with a single strap. Sometimes I work from the back of my hatchback or in tight spaces, I can still easily access things. There is also a practical small window at the end where smaller items (ballhead, clamps...) can be accessed. Though I usually don't use this.
Material seem sturdy and the bag is well constructed except the zipper quality is weak. I had to return the bag once because the zipper seperated. The bag material, handles and carrying strap is very sturdy, difficult to understand why the zipper was made so weak.
I would recommend the product, good price and value but be careful when closing the zipper.

I bought this bag for my alien bee light stands (x2), cords, tripod, umbrellas (x2) and other miscellaneous stuff like cybersyncs, gaffer's tape, etc. It says "for a 2 monolight kit" but they're liars. The alien bee light stands and umbrellas take up the entire length of the bag pretty much and there's no way you're going to fit 2 monolights in with that stuff. Liars, I tell you! There was room for more though… more stands and small stuff like speedlights etc..
Concept-wise, it really is the perfect size and the (almost) perfect solution for my needs (minus wheels). I love the fact that's it's simple - it's just a single large open space.
All of that went straight in the trash though went the zipper stopped zipping! I've only had this bag for probably 3 months and I carry it from my car to inside (I shoot interiors). This might not happen to everybody, but buying cheap a lot of times cost more in the end and that was certainly true for me with this bag.
You might get lucky with it, I don't know, but I won't be skimping on bags from now on. I need something that will last.

Comments about Impact Light Kit Bag #3 for 2 Monolights with Light Stands and Accessories:
For the price of it, turns out to be a superb item, specially when buying when on a budget.
It fits most of my lighting equipment. The con: a pocket is missing. I mean, there's no spare parts storaging. Can be a hassle, like for example, radioslaves or small adapters.
Also, the strap's not the most comfortable thing.

Comments about Impact Light Kit Bag #3 for 2 Monolights with Light Stands and Accessories:
I would not transport lights in this bag without purchasing some extra padding & dividers. However, this bag works great to carry a ton of stands in. Whenever we go on big shoots we always take a lot of stands with us, and this bag, void of any reasonable amount of padding and/or compartmentalization will make a great stand bag.

Comments about Impact Light Kit Bag #3 for 2 Monolights with Light Stands and Accessories:
It is a great sized bag: I used it for about year to haul two AlienBees, a couple 60" umbrellas, cords, reflectors, and a mini Lithium. It started to come apart though, with the lining under the top flap, and now that I've added a White Lightning to my kit and want to replace my ABs with Einsteins .... I'm back here looking for a tougher bag. For one or two ABs, it's a great bag though. Just don't expect [$] to go too far :)

I purchased the 2 Monolight kit and it did not come with a bag. This one works well and will hold not only the monolights but other items as well. I have not had it long but I think if I take care with it, it will last for a good long time.

This bag does easily fit what it claims to. However, I wish that the quality was a little more durable and that there were more compartments. Cushioned separators would be a nice addition.
If you don't use your light kit regularly, it gets the job done. However, if you will be transporting it regularly, I would suggest something with more protection for your equipment.

I can fit 3 (three!!!) Genesis monolights with two standard and one small light stands and powercords.
Build quality is not among strengths of this product, though :( I received mine with one of the internal zippers busted. Doesn't prevent me from using it but still...

I use this bag to pack tripods, flash stands and other accessories.
It is a nice simple bag, with no fancy frills. No pockets, no separators, just a good open space in which to place my accessories. Considering the price of many bags, this one is a very good value.

Comments about Impact Light Kit Bag #3 for 2 Monolights with Light Stands and Accessories:
This bag is okay but not great. It does it's job and is cheap but the material is a bit cheap. When I received it, it already had a tear in the side. I would look at other options if you don't mind spending a little more.
However, if you want something cheap and holds your lights this will do.

I like the fact that the end of this bag unzips so my longer light stand will still fit in the bag but the end sticks out just a couple of inches.
