Customer Reviews Kate Spade New York Knott Medium Satchel

The yellow color is vibrant and striking. Unfortunately the purse is much smaller than I expected. Yes you could do the measurements beforehand, but the description of what can fit into it is a bit misleading. The problem is the return policy. You can only return it if you've kept all the wrapping in place, but there's a million pieces of wrapping, and you have to undo most of it to really get a sense of the purse and its size. I appreciate the durable wrapping, but it negates being able to return the purse so be careful unpackaging it. Also, it only has one long pocket in the main compartment. One or two smaller ones would've been hugely helpful. I think if you're looking for a smaller, simpler purse, this is a great choice. It is well-made and pretty. I just wish I had just ordered a larger size, but too late for that.

It was listed as a medium size purse, I would classify this as a small. Very small, other than that it is a nice purse

Hi there! I just wanted to let you know that if you registered your bag (gave your name, phone number, zip code, etc.) then you do get a 1 year warranty on the bag so if anything manufacturing happens, then you can return it to the kate spade store and they should be able to replace it. Hope this helps!

I thought this was gold hardware but def is more silver. I looked outdoors too but still seeing silver. Disappointed so returning. Also the medium is smaller than expected, def closer to a wkend bag than work.

The purse is much smaller than it appears on the picture

Didn't include the note for my girlfriend :(

Color is not as pictures. It's closer to gray color, which is a big bummer. And unfortunately I can't return or exchange it because it was on sale, so kind of stuck with it. Though it was much more expensive compared to other colors on sale. Otherwise it's a nice bag, I like the size and how it is inside.

Beautiful purse.. however the largest part of the purse you can't close. Design flaw. Tips over and everything falls out! This would have been my go to purse forever except for that horrible flaw

My FIRST Kate Spade purchase. I received this last week and it seemed smaller than the ones I own that are around the same measurments stated in this ad. (I made my decision to order based on the measurements!) So I decided to measure and as you can see in the photos with the ruler they are off! And yes it IS enough to make a difference, it's too small! I am very unhappy. Also just for reference the carry straps are very skinny compared to your standard size handbag. That's not as big of a deal as the misrepresentation of the measurements. The bag is very pretty (hence giving 2 stars) and the pink is a soft pink that I loved but since I am stuck with it I will try to sell it on some selling platform. The lisitng is MISLEADING. I noticed in a review of another Kate Spade style handbag that the measurements were off. Since I can't trust the listing I won't be ordering from this company again.

Very difficult to get things in and out because the access or opening is so small. I have small hands and still have trouble reaching in and getting things out of it if I have more than a wallet for a few items inside. The hook closure is also useless answer difficult to Maneuver due to the small tight area at the top where it's located. I should've returned it for the money I paid.

Literally after 1 week the color was gone, i took it to a kate spade store and they tried to "clean it" with their own product and they noticed the color was on the little towel they were using not worthy at all!

Bought it over black Friday sale. It's already falling apart after using it only for one time. Threads are coming off already. Disappointed.

I bought this and it was delivered, as expected on 11/24 - less than a week from today. I was initially IN LOVE with this bag. It is my first "designer" expensive bag and I have babied this and been EXTREMELY careful with it, never putting it on the ground or even in a shopping cart. Well, less than a week after I received it the hardware on the bottom fell off. I put it on my desk this morning at work and looked over and one of the feet attached just... had fallen off. I could understand if I had had this purse for any length of time... but to pay $262 plus tax for a handbag that has started falling apart in a WEEK. I should have saved my money and gone to target. I will say I did read other reviews saying this product was cheaply made, but due to the price and the Kate Spade name and reputation, I didn't believe it. Instead I assumed they were "problem" customers. I can assure you - I don't know that I've ever left a nasty review for anything. But $262 for a handbag that fell apart. I was so excited to finally have a nice handbag, but now I am so disappointed.

I am a long time buyer of Kate Spade, this is one of my absolute favorite bags. I have the two previous "it" bags from the company, the margaux and the toujours and I have bags from the outlet such as the laurel way resse and the leila medium triple compartment. The leather on this bag is good quality reminiscent of all Kate Spade boutique bags, and the design is very cute and can carry you to work or to a nice outing; however, the quality is not great and it makes the bag feel cheap. First of all, my bag came warped so the bottom does not lay flat on a table and the feet of the bag are rendered useless as it does not lay flat on a surface, rather, the middle of the bag touches the table, making the light color leather easy to be worn down or get dirty. Second, the major issue I have with the bag is that the front and back panel are sown down but the bottom of the bag is then glued on the inside! And if the glue were strong and good quality this would not be an issue but my brand new bag has the glue peeling away from the eye of where it is sealed and my hand can fit under there so loose items in the bag will get caught under the flap and the glue feels sticky! This is just not the kind of quality I expect especially not from their boutique website. I think this is a big miss and I would not recommend this bag at all! Also the clip design with the dring is really not functional and is frustrating to clip on and off. I am very sad to see how low quality this bag is and I think you should definitely go with one of Kate Spade's older styles, especially the Toujours if you are looking for a cute but elegant bag. That one is amazing quality and mine has help up through over a year of wear and tear. This bag came out of the box and is already on its path towards being worn out.
