KD Australia Review

KD Australia is Australia’s answer for a custom-made felt bag insert. To review this popular purse organizer, we decide to compare it against Samorga and Cloversac when inserted in a Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM.

Fitting
Both Samorga and KD Australia are custom fit for a Neverfull MM so they fit like a glove. Following is how KD Australia looks like inside a Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM. You can hardly find any gap around it.

Following is how a Samorga looks like when fitted inside a Neverfull MM. Similarly, it has no gap around it.

Cloversac’s Emma 28 provides the best fit for Neverfull MM, provide some gap when fitted in a Neverfull MM.

When it comes to fitting, it really boils down to personal choice. Some like a perfect fit because it used up all the interior space whereas some like a close fit. However, when a purse organizer is a perfect fit, it pushes the interior wall of the purse outwards making the Neverfull MM look rather boxy from the outside.

This also gives an unnatural feeling when you swing over your shoulder.

Another advantage of Emma 28, the same organizer can be used to fit into a Speedy 30 as well.Material
First, let’s look at the material used on all bag organizers. Both Samorga and KD Australia are made from felt whereas Cloversac is made from nylon. Using felt fabric has its pro and con. Felt being a popular craft material is readily available in many colors. For example, Samorga and KD Australia have over 20 color to choose from. Whereas Cloversac, Emma 28 which is the size recommended fitting for Neverfull MM is only available in 4 colors.

The texture of Felts is can sometimes feel coarse and gritty feel but it depend on the grade as well. Felt by Samorga has a better feel compared to KD Australia. Cloversac which is made of polyester may not look as ecstatic but it serves its purpose well as :

1. Unlike felt, polyester would not fuzz over time,

2. Unlike felt, it wouldn’t lose its shape over time
3. More importantly it can be completed soaked in water to be washed while felt can only surface clean.

Packaging
Most people don’t pay much attention to how the organizer is packed. However, when it comes to a felt organizer is packaged is so critical especially when it is made of felt. Based on our research, Samorga, Zoomoni, and Soni all send their purse organizer in a box.

This is for a good reason, it is to prevent the organizer from being folded. Unfortunately, KD Australia is sent in a mailer, as a result, the organizer is folded. Following picture show how KD Australia is packed.

Due to how it is packed, the sides get folded and leave a folded line that cannot be undone.

This also causes the bottom to protrude

It goes the same for those felt organizer you find on Amazon like Ztujo, it all come folded and it will remain folded on both sides for a long time.
Cloversac keeps it shape differently, its innovative design allows it to be shipped flat but remains in shape as it comes with plastic cards that can be inserted on the base and the two side walls to help to keep it sturdy.

Price
If you are Australian planning to buy a purse organizer insert, you will definitely benefit from buying it from KD Australia as you will save in shipping and it is by far the cheapest custom fitting purse organizer. However if you shipping it to United States, the prices for shipping increase significantly and KD Australia only offer standard delivery which is 10~20 days whereas Cloverac and Samorga provide courier service which is faster with tracking.

Following is the price comparison in US dollars.

Following summarize the pro and con if you are considering buying KD Australia

Pro : It is relatively cheap if you are shipping within Australia.

Con : Its flat packaging leaves a folded line on both its sides, it also causes the base to protrude out.
