I'm looking for a backpack that has a flat enough bottom that it will stand up on it's own when full or partially empty. Will this one work for me?

Yes, but it depends on how and where you use it. If you pack it neat and well there's a good chance it will stay erect when full, but when completely empty it will easily tip over.

Yes. I have been using it all week to go to the pool and beach and it stands up nicely once I have added a couple drinks and some ice.

Not unless you have something in it. This is just a bag with no internal structure. It will lay flat empty.

Sort of, No, No, yes, this bag is more of a lightweight pack to keep stuff dry while you are at the water. Sounds to me like you need to look for an actually backpack to fit your needs.

My son's backpack still stands up full or empty after using it since Sept. 2013. It takes a lot of abuse from a 12 yr. old.

Hello, sorry for the delay of the answer.The backpack is sturdy and the bottom too, it doesn't collapse when it's loaded. It's a very good bag for books and my daughter is very happy.

I'm a 30-ish woman in pretty good shape. I find that kind of load in my bag is not comfortable for long periods. A backpack would distribute the weight more equally.

Well, not specifically, but it does have four distinct sides (pleated sides), and if you put anything with any kind of weight in it, it would have a flat bottom.

This bag will only remain standing on its own if loaded with that intent in mind. Generally, I would say no, it does not stand up on its own. However, when I packed it completely full, and especially tightly on the "wheel end" it worked.

It depends on how long your bag is. This is an amazing stand i.e. light, strong, great case, etc.; but it is long when folded up. Check the length with your luggage, and if it fits, you will be happy with this stand. Another great feature is that it extends withoutcoming apart so if you stand for a solo, you just pull up and its set.

Regardless of purpose, these bags can be folded from the bottom to create a flat surface that is self-supporting and stands by itself. I hope this fully answers your question.

It will *not* go flat. I use mine daily, for hours. It's comfortable but offers support as well. By far the best I've ever had. Others have either been hard as a rock or mushy. I love this one.

Hi, I don't. Know about the Zuca but I can tell you that this backpack does stand up when it is full. I think it's great! I hope this helps.

No it is flat. It is wide at top and little narrow at bottom. It might work.

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

No, it doesn't stand up by itself really. The hard bottom does help and it depends on the balance of the items inside but it's not meant to stay upright.

It does not fold completely flat. Would probably take up more room in your backpack than you would want.

I might be able to carry one of the type that folds up flat, not a full size non foldable one.
