Is the bag structured enough to sit upright when you put it down or does it just flop over?

Depends on how you have it loaded to some degree, as in if you have a very heavy laptop in the back and nothing else, but mine always stands up with a laptop and tablet in the back, and some paperwork and a charger in the front! Its one of the things that I love, that with the handle on the top it can be picked up and put down like a briefcase, which is especially handy when trying to move out of the way at airport security etc.

The bag is marvelous, but literally one of the two features to make it perfect is that sitting upright feature. It lays, unless you have books and what not inside to make it sit upright.The second feature I wish it had was Velcro silencers. You have to buy them separately. Overall, still a great bag.

Mine sits upright most of the time. Similar to Jonathan's answer - depends on how you pack it - I'll typically have my laptop and a book or two in it, and it'll sit upright.

I have had no problems rolling it up. It might be challenging for someone with arthritis in their hands. Basically, you lay it out flat in the closed position, and then fold it in half in the long direction. You then roll it up tightly at this half-width, starting from the foot, keeping the bag folded and square as you go. At the top there is a built-in strap arrangement, using black cord, to hold the bag in its rolled-up position. It consists of a loop of cord on one side, fastened at each corner of the half-width of the bag, and a single cord with a plastic hook on it at the other side, centered on the half-width. The idea is to pull the middle of the loop around in one direction around the outside of the rolled-up bag, and then engage the hook in it from the other side. This creates a Y-shaped fastening that keeps the bag rolled up. It took me a few tries to figure out how this was supposed to work when I first got the bag, but it's not too hard to figure out. Pay attention to how it is rolled up when it arrives. The important thing is to roll the bag tightly and keep it square (even), rather than letting the bag edges slop out and roll up unevenly. keeping it tight makes it easier to fasten the cord. I know other people have complained about this arrangement in other reviews, but I don't have a problem with it. Alternatively a couple of short bungee cords would serve the same purpose of keeping the bag closed. I like the convenience of having the straps built in.

It's folds down not small exactly, but it's tidy. Similar to one of those lawn chairs that folds up in a bag - but wider around from more bulk.

It folds down, but not completely flat because of the back support on the seat

YES, although I cannot recommend this bag. A better quality one is surprisingly enough, the Armarcat bag by far and it will also squash down.

Yes, it can be folded flat and over itself. Very nice bag and well worth the price

The bag is delivered in a box that is about an inch thick, so it can be flattened but I wouldn't fold it. The bag is extremely versatile, I love it!

No it does not stand up right but the material/fabric is strong. I am very happy with this bag and I travel a lot.

It flattens down extremely well as the whole bag is made from a flexible material. It actually arrives folded up in a small square package. I have bought a few of these bags and have been very happy with them.

No it, doesmt. Will always be upright. Only the handle slides down similar to luggage.

It stands on its own just fine. We are very pleased with the bag and its capacity.

Yes, laying on it's side. This bag will hold a full six pack of sodas or water bottles. The bag is really quite large and roomy.

The bag goes comfortably around the container. I turn the container upside down inside the bag and there is no mess on the floor. I hope this helps?

It does tip over but not as easy as they say, I love the bag and tipping over has a lot to do with how it is packed, I would not hesitate to buy another

Yes. It will sit upright just fine. Applies a bunch of pressure though. At least to my back.

Based on my personal experience, this bag won't slide around. It's quite adjustable and even has a support strap that helps keep it in place. Being a sling bag, it isn't ideal for heavy loads; the bag can take it, your shoulder might not.
