What is Reddit's opinion of Herschel Novel Duffel Bag, Black/Tan Synthetic Leather, Classic 42.5L?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I travel every other weekend, usually a two to three nights stay. Baring the obvious underwear and toiletries, I'd say I take: * One pair of jeans (plus the ones I will be wearing to travel in) * Couple of henley's/t-shirts (depending on time of the year) * A flannel shirt * OCBD (for going to dinner) * A knit jumper * Pair of casual shoes (New Balance or Converse, I'll most likely be wearing boots whilst I travel) * Laptop and chargers * GoPro and cable * Book * Diary * Potentially some workout gear

Accessories like belt, watch, etc will already be on me at the time, same as chukka boots. I like to travel as lightly as possible due to the fact I have to take a two trains, and the London Underground, at peak hours on a Friday evening. Getting through the crowds is tough enough, I don't want to be weighed down any more than I need to be. If you're interested, this is the bag I use - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Herschel-Supply-Company-Duffel-Liters/dp/B0077CLCWO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487790968&sr=8-1&keywords=herschel%2Bnovel%2Bduffle%2Bbag&th=1

I didn't pay full price for it, I got it in a sale. I'd recommend it, solely on the fact it has a separate compartment for shoes. Although, I imagine many other bags have that function.

Yea I looked around a bit and I saw this. For the price, I think it's decent and it will do the job (short weekend getaways/gym bag)

I’m seeing the same bag for $55 from Amazon too.

Is it this one? The 42.5L? https://www.amazon.com/Herschel-Novel-Duffle-Black-Size/dp/B0077CLCWO

My mom has been asking me for gift ideas for Christmas, so today I came up with a bag similar to the Herschel Weekender Bag. I'm not married to that specific bag, but I like the look of it, probably because it's been so popular lately.

She saw that it doesn't have a perfect 5 star review on Amazon, and I think wanting to do some research of her own, she came across this one by Wowbox, and this one by Topwolfs.

Which both have a perfect 5 star rating on Amazon, but absolutely 0 low reviews makes me nervous, that the reviews might all be paid for. The wowbox is Amazon's choice, but I've never heard of either brand. A google search comes up with nothing.

Does anybody know anything about these brands, or tips for culling out shitty Chinese brands that pay for good reviews?
