The material of the flag is actually quite good for the price. It has flown for over a month on my flag pole and it looks great. The grommets are strong and have not shown any damage on the flag itself. The only reason I put three stars instead of five is because the blue colour is darker than it is supposed to be. A simple google search will show the blue should be a brighter blue, like in the picture. When it came I was disappointed the blue was not as bright as advertised. Then again, it was a cheap flag and the listing did not show the actual product, so I can not expect too much for the price. If you want a cheap accurate-enough flag of Toronto that will stand the test of time, this is your best bet.

The flag is colorful and can be seen from far. The price is very good. It was worth the purchase

As on previous orders, this flag is a good purchase for the money, and enjoyable to see.

Just to make it very clear, the flag is printed on only one side. I hang them on walls, so they work very well for me. Very good quality, and the material is not too heavy, but it is quite tough.

My flag was delivered really quickly as usual, well before the original estimated delivery date.  It was dirt cheap, so of course I didn't expect too much.  Although the craftsmanship is not great (its held together by a twist-tie), it does just what I need it to.  It's really fun.  I go around my house throwing the flag and calling "penalties" on my family for different things.  Overall, why not get this flag?  The joy you'll get out of it is worth much more than the dollar and change you'll spend on it.

I like the flag because it flies even in lighter breezes, instead of just hanging. So far, it has held up well during stronger winds.

It's clear the the image is stretched, but otherwise it's fine.  The actual shirt is a pretty good material.

The flag appears to be made from 1 piece of material.  My last flag was sewn from a piece of material for each stripe and over time would come apart at the ends along each stripe.

The flag  doesn't look like much in the cellophane bag when it arrives. Once you take it out of the bag and hang it on you flag pole it looks like a (20) dollar flag. The stitching is done well and the biggest plus is after a year no tearing and NO NOTICEABLE FADING.

Colors are vibrant on both sides (unlike my last flag, which cost twice as much), and it's heavy enough that it hasn't wrapped up on the flagpole, so far.  When this one wears out, I'll buy another exactly like it.

The flag is gorgeous and we get a lot of compliments on it.

I WAS SURPRIZED BY THE FLAG, WHICH CERTAINLY APPEARED IN THE AD AS MOSTLY SEWN FLAG.  THE STARS DON'T APPEAR TO BE EMBORIDERED, BUT WILL TAKE YOUR WORD FOR IT.

Its a cheap thin little flag but it did not cost much.  It is holding up pretty well.

The flag is great.  It is well constructed and is one of the finest I  have owned.  The bottom line is that the flag is beautiful.

It's a little odd to be posting a review of a flag. Are you reviewing the flag design? That's not the vendor's responsibility. Or the construction? People who buy a $5 polyester flag should know what they're getting. Or the purchasing experience? About that, I have no complaints at all: the flag arrived within just a couple of days of my order, well-packed and in good condition.

The flag of the United States Merchant Marine was introduced by the Department of Transportation in 1994. The design is unremarkable for American service flags. It includes writing (generally considered a sign of poor flag design), and so since the flag sold here is one-sided, the printing on the reverse of the flag reads "RAW DNA ECAEP NI -- SETATS DETINU ENIRAM TNAHCREM -- 5771."

The material used in this flag is slightly thicker than many of the other polyester flags I own, but it's still much thinner than the nylon or cotton used in more expensive models. In other words, it's a typical $5 polyester flag. Since that's exactly what I was expecting, I'm perfectly satisfied. It's probably best for indoor display, although if you do intend to fly it outside from time to time, as I do, it should hold up fine in moderate use and moderate conditions. But if you do display it from a staff, please be sure to iron it first. Nothing looks worse than a billowing flag covered with just-out-of-the-box creases.

At first, I thought this was junk but i have to say after I put it on the pole I am quite happy with it. I was replacing a canvas embroidered flag that was much heavier, so this one appeared very flimsy. However, it flies beautifully and does not get wrapped around the pole the way the heavier one did. It also dries very quickly.

It probably won't last a very long time but at less than $3 and can get a bunch of them.

Somewhat cheap material, but that is to be expected from the price.
