Really solid gigbag
I use this case for carrying my basses between my school and band rehearsal at least two times a week, I've used it for about a year and it's been solid.
I'm really impressed with the build quality, compared to other gigbags I own, this is far superior. The edges are nicely protected with thick padding, all while not being too heavy. There are many compartments for putting tools, cables, or various other items in. The main pocket on the front is big enough for a small laptop and cables with room to spare. It has two carrying handles, one on the side and one on the back (this one is really nice to have). And straps for carrying on your back.
My only real complaint is that, when you carry it on your back, it becomes very tall. I find myself accidentally walking in to door frames almost every time I carry it around. I'm decently tall but not crazy tall. If the straps were placed 10-15cm higher up this wouldn't be a problem. Although I don't have any prior experiences with bass cases that have carrying straps, it might be a common issue.
All in all, I think the Gator Case Transit is a solid investment if you want to protect your bass from damage during transport.
Pros:
+ Solid build quality
+ Great protection
+ Smart compartments for accessories
Cons:
- Very tall when carried using straps (watch out for door frames)

Nice bag at first, but will break fast
It actually is a decent bag. One might expect that after paying 100 euros for it. But after about 4 months one of the shoulder straps broke off. (whilst on my bike) I emailed Thomann and they sent me a replacement. however, 4-5 months later exactly the same happened. the exact same strap at the exact same place. Now I don't have a heavy bass or put a ridiculous amount of stuff in it. It's a shame this happened because I quite like what the bag looks like. Thanks to Thomann for taking care of this and giving me a refund. I don't recommend buying this bag as it will probably cause a lot of problems. I'm now enjoying my mono bass sleeve.

Handsome Bag, Poor Quality.
While the gig bag was very nice, after three months of moderate use with an extermely light bass, one of the shoulder straps snapped off at the point of attachment (stitching came undone and pulled out). Spent the next three months trying to get a hold of Gator but they never bothered to get back to me.
Not worth the cost.

Great Gear!
I was looking for backpack style case, and this is just great. Way beyond my expectations.
The materials are super sturdy and feel nice and durable, Great sense of robustness.
All the features look solid also and well designed. Everything is stored at best.
I'm just super happy about this product, great value for money.
No cons envisaged so far

This gig bag is awesome! I have a quite heavy bass, but with this bag it feels lighter than it actually is, and I usually cycle to my rehearsals. Nice thick inner padding, quality zippers, big front pocket (I usually fit in instrument cables, an expression pedal, spare strings and a toolkit as well) and last but not the least, nice and elegant look! After one year of use, I see no cons at all.

Super value for money
Compared to other gigbags in this price-range i am overwhelmed with the quality of this one. It protects my bass nicely, and it's comfortable to wear.

Overall a good bag!
I use this bag as an everyday carry bag, for my Yamaha BB435, which fits perfectly.
The padding is good, the neck is held tight.
The only drawback are the pockets on the bag. The head pocket is really thin, you can only store there some backup strings or something like that. The bigger pocket is better, but for only a few cables and a strap.
