What is the Material used to make the base shaper?
Not all base shapers are made using the same material. Some base shapers are made of cardboard while others are made of plastic or acrylic. In my opinion, I will not recommend a base shaper that is made out of plastic or acrylic as they can be overly stiff  which may damage the interior after prolonged usage.

Make sure the base shaper have rounded corners
Always look for only base shaper with rounded corners, this is also to avoid damaging the interior of your handbags
