Gewa Bio Violincase 4/4 GY MP/SH

I bought this case a month ago, attracted by its low price (considering it's Gewa) and the sleek look. However, after I got it, some of its features didn't match my expectations: first, the handle on the side is very loose, therefore if you are carrying it on your back with the straps, at every step you take, the handle bangs against the case. Second, the lid fits tightly onto the bottom side, meaning that you need to apply some pressure to separate both halves and therefore open it (I understand that some people will not consider this a disadvantage but a safety feature, as if you leave the two locks unfastened by mistake and lift the case, it won't open). Finally, the back straps have a single anchoring point at the top, making it slightly unstable when carrying on the back (although that is common in some other brands and models). Straps themselves are also quite thin and not padded.
On the plus side, the violin fits very well inside, it doesn't move. The case itself is very hard as well, despite being made of organically grown fibres. The accessories compartment inside is not huge, but just about fits a shoulder rest (Kun Original in my case).

The flax outer covering of this case sets it apart from most others and has produced admiring comments from many of my friends. Despite its lightness and compact dimensions I am confident that its sturdy construction will protect my violin. The interior accessories compartment is a useful size and there is space within the case to store a shoulder rest. No string tube is provided but I was quickly able to fit one myself. The outer music pocket is large enough to hold orchestral sheet music. If needed, one of the backpack straps provided can be attached to the rings at both ends of the case so it can be carried on the shoulder.

The case does not rest easily on its side and care must be taken to ensure the lid catches have closed properly but these are minor complaints and overall I am very happy that it provides the features I need for regular and convenient use.

I love this case, its very beautiful and great to use and keeps my violin safe.
Its excellent size and got generous space for your documents,violin, bows and any accessories . I love travelling with this bag, looks great and can be carried in different ways and is very stable to stand on the floor upright or sideways.
One thing I did not like is the handle is a bit loose which makes a banging noise if carried on the back while walking. I had to do a small modification using some electric tape to make it fit tighter.
The material is great and very elegant, overall very happy with the purchase and highly recommend.
