Good if you are a midget.
This is well made. Great. But it is less than worthless for me. I wear a Long sportcoat, and this this is so short that a good 2 inches of fabric get bunched up in the bottom. I don't even think a REGULAR would fit properly! I'm going back to order something my suits can go into and not need pressing when I take them out. This really disappoints me, I thought the Rubbermaid name would mean something.

Gets the job done
I purchased two of these bags about a year ago after losing 2 suits to moths. After thoroughly cleaning my closet, I put my suits in these bags and haven't had any problems since. The small window lets me know which suit is which and the bags protect from both moths and dust. The cedar insert in the bag is pretty small and I don't know how effective it is, but I haven't had any problems with moths so I can't complain.
The one potential drawback to this bag is the length. I'm about 6'0" and my suits barely fit in the bags without bunching up. However, I have limited space in my closet due to a closet organizer and a longer suit bag would not fit in my closet anyway. At any rate, these bags, although inexpensive, seem to be well made and serve their purpose.

Good and utilitarian.
These bags look good and are not expensive. They are not very long and if you are much taller than me your coats and suits may not fit. My suits are almost to the bottom (I'm 5'8"). I think they are well made. The window is a bit too small but it doesn't bother me. I would have liked some pockets on the bags but I'm well satisfied.

One of the best clothes bag ever
I've been looking for such a product for years... quality clothes bag made of material. This is exactly what I was looking for....quality product. I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the bags are a little short.....5-6 inches longer would have great.
Base on others review, I purchased 2 of those from Amazon. I just got it today, and it was worth few weeks of wait time. Some people had complaint about no Cedar Inserts, there is! You just have to look carefully, it's in there. I will get more, for this price and quality, you can't go wrong.

Canvas Suit Bag with Cedar Inserts, Natural
The suit bag is all that it is suppose to be with one exception. It says with Cedar Inserts. There are no cedar inserts in the bag. Other than that is is what it claims to be.

Well made, but comes up short
I ordered this to house my suits and jackets. I made an assumption, which is my fault, about what the product description led me to believe. It says it's for hanging suits, but it should say for waist jackets and short suits. I'm not a giant (I'm actually 6'3"), but none of the suits and jackets I intended to place in these bags hang freely. All are now bunched up and folded. The description listed the dimensions (36" L), but like I said, I went off the written description. Don't make my mistake. Now with that out of the way, here are the bullets:
Pros
- Strong material
- good seal where hanger comes through
- Strong zipper
- ample thickness to hand more than one item
- Great price for construction and materials used.
Cons
- Site glass too small and only on one side, disallowing viewing of
other items if multi packed.
- Mislabeled as suit bag. It will not allow an average suit to freely
hang. Should have used garment or shirt bag.

A Bit Wide and Stiff
I still don't understand how they embedded cedar into the fabric, but it's a great idea, however, these are really stiff and wide. They hit the back of my closet and are tough to get clothes in and out. I'm used to nylon or a much more pliable material on my suits or jackets. They're made well and a great buy, but overall too large in width for my closet space. I had to return them.
Really, he is very useful for shelters, you absorb and any type of clothes, covers well your clothes, and the materials are of very good quality, realmete very satisfied with the product
Fit all of my winter sweater and I have a lot of them. Used one for all of hubbys fleece. Fits perfect on configurations shelf without hanging off of the shelf. Plan on ordering two more of them.

Decent BUT NOT Long Enough
Rubbermaid Configurations Hanging Canvas Suit Bag with Cedar Inserts, Natural, #3F21
I bought five of these garment bags thinking they would be an excellent purchase because of the price and because of the name but based upon the dimensions I was thinking that my suits would not fit in them properly. Needless to say, when I took them out of the packaging and placed my suits in them and hung them up, the bag is NOT LONG ENOUGH for the suits to fit without slightly wrinkling them.
I think that Rubbermaid should have done their homework before putting out such an inferior product. A few more inches in length and width would greatly improve these bags. Also, I don't like having to pick off the pieces of canvas from my suits before I wear them. This was an unfortunate purchase and now I cannot return them because the packaging got thrown away.

A quality bag for the money
This is a quality suit bag for the price listed on Amazon (I paid $7.99). The material is durable enough that it appears it will last for years to come - unlike many suit bags made of plastic that tear easily. Other reviewers are misinformed about the cedar inserts; the bags DO have the cedar inserts, they are sewn into a little pouch near the bottom of the bag. I would give this product 5 stars, but it's a little bit short to truly be considered a bag for an average man - I am 6'0" tall and my suit jackets could use another inch or so in bag length to keep from hitting the bottom.
Generally, I'm satisfied with these bags for the low price. The two disappointments I've had are their short length, which barely fits my regular sized suits, and their cedar insert (just inside the zipper, near the bottom, for those of you who can't find it) is very small, really more of a flake than a chip. I will be trying a different product when I need more garment bags.
This Suit Bag looks great and is well made, BUT it is too short for men's suits and certainly for dresses. It is about 5 inches shorter that other suit bags I have--the clothes roll up and wrinkle because they hit the bttom of the bag. Nice try, but no cigar.

excellent value, shipping faster than advertised
This suit bag is an excellent value. Mine had cedar sewn into it near the Rubbermaid tag logo at the bottom. It is well constructed of strong canvas. The zipper feels a little dodgy but should be fine for my purposes ince I won't be opening it every day. The best part was that despite Amazon's "ships in 3 to 6 weeks" advice it shipped the next day. MUCH better than the "For Dummies" bag that is cheaper. If you are trying to decide between the two kick in the extra couple bucks to get something that will last.

04/2008: Has small cedar inserts, best quality for price
This item hasn't been reviewed for a while, so I figured that I'd provide an update regarding the latest shipment.
I ordered four of the suit bags in March 2008 (ordered while out of stock, shipped late April 2008). The bags I received (Rubbermaid 3F21) did indeed include small cedar tabs sewn into the bottom end of the bag. The bags smell faintly of cedar and will probably repel insects for a while (though the cedar will likely need to be replaced in the future).
Regarding overall quality, these are probably the best quality garment bags you can buy from Amazon for the price. The bags are made from nice, solid canvas, the zippers work smoothly, and the openings are well-sealed, while still allowing for a variety of hangers. There is also a small plastic window which makes garment identification easy.
I would highly recommend this bag, assuming that Amazon restocks them.

No Longer Best Value for Money
EDIT [June 2008]: Now that they raised the price from five bucks to eight bucks, I no longer stand by my 4 star rating. This is now an average bag for the price. The "For Dummies" bags are a good alternative in the price range. The eight dollar Rubbermaid canvas bag is sturdy and opaque; the eight dollar "For Dummies" canvas/plastic bag Storage For Dummies: Suit / Jacket / Garment Durable Canvas Storage Bag is sturdy and transparent. Most other garment bags on Amazon are either more expensive or flimsier. I wish I could edit/adjust my star rating down to 3 stars, but I can't. (Note that Cedar Inserts were NOT included in any of the 4 Rubbermaid bags I ordered.)

Rubbermaid Configurations Hanging Canvas Suit Bag with Cedar Inserts #3F21
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this product. I needed to purchase a garment bag to replace one that had been lost. From the description it sounded like a decent garment bag and the price seemed very reasonable so I ordered several. When I received them, I was very impressed with the grade and quality of the fabric and workmanship. Definitely a lot of value for the money. I highly recommend this product.

Not as Advertised!
First of all, there are NO cedar inserts!! Not even a place for them. The cardboard picture insert in the package shows a clear plastic full front to the suit bag, but when you open and take it out of the packaging, it's all cloth with a tiny 3 x 5 vinyl window. Even that's OK (but not what it claims) but I purchased it for the cedar inserts and there aren't any. FALSE ADVERTISING.

Better then expected.
Although the image is incorrect, I much prefer that the suit bag came with an entire canvas front versus the vinyl. I seem to have bad luck with hangers or transportation ripping holes in the vinyl. The canvas is much sturdier and still has a window at the top, right so that you can see what is inside.
There IS a cedar insert in each of the suit bags (at least there were in my three that I ordered). It's just enough to do the trick. If you unzip the bag and right towards the bottom there is a small cedar insert inside the bag. Overall great buy for the item that you receive. I'll be buying another three shortly!

False description
My 2 received are the same as the other reviewer, including no cedar. I don't think it is Amazon's error since the item's packaging shows the same photo. Rubbermaid is at fault. I guesss the bright side is more canvas, but I agree w/ the other reviewer that one wants to be able to quickly tell what's inside and likely one will have to unzip the bag.

What you see is not what you get.........
I wanted to get something with a clear view of the garment inside. The product description, the web picture, and even the picture on the cardboard of the actual package all show "full front panel w/transparent window", but what I got (15 in total!) was a canvas front with only a 3"x5" window, not exactly what I thought....so beware, you may be in for a surprise. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why it's only $4.99 -- mislabeled packaging or incorrect content.......
