Thank you for viewing. This is a hip seat from the manufacturer TeLasbaby. It can be folded compactly when not in use. There is a pocket with a zipper on the side where you can put keys, coins, etc. There are fold marks on the waist belt because it was folded. I think it will not be a problem for use. Please understand and acknowledge that this is a used item stored at a private residence. If you are concerned about odors, please refrain from purchasing. Returns are not accepted. (There are no pets or smokers in the house) It will be folded up small and shipped. Please contact me in the comments if you have any concerns.
