The perfect non-diaper-bag diaper bag
This may be the best bag I've ever owned. I recently traveled by plane and found it was large enough to accommodate my 13" laptop seven extra diapers + wipes (never know how long you're going to be stuck in the airport) two books (one for me one for my husband) and various other items all without making the bag bulky (though yes it was heavy as you can imagine). Yet the bag is somehow compact enough that I can use it around town *without* all of those items and it doesn't look like I'm carrying a giant empty bag around. Should your child decide he wants *you* to hold his beloved stuffed sheep it'll fit easily inside. For any moms and dads out there returning to school you can fit a textbook (two if they're slim) notebooks folders etc. inside and not worry that it looks like you're using a diaper bag. (FYI when my laptop is inside I find my bulky textbook too big to also fit so I just carry it.)
Perhaps my favorite feature are the two front pockets miraculously large enough to easily slip a sippy cup in and out of (but when empty look just as they do in the picture) thus keeping it upright and spill-free. I also love the two zippered pockets at the top of the bag (I keep my wallet in one of them). I don't use my stroller much anymore (my son is 2 1/2) but I do use the stroller clips on the cart handle at the grocery store. I *love* not having to carry my bag around and having easy access to sippy cups snacks etc. that my son may want.

GOOD BAG!
This is my first child hence my first diaper bag. However I read tons of bag reviews and decided on this one for a few reasons.
PROS
1) It's neutral & hubby likes it.
2) It is big but east to tote around.
3) Has several compartments inside pockets & nifty side holes on the outside to put a bottle in or bottled water for myself!
4) Strap is soft & widens out wrapping around you like a sling (you can see in some pics on the manufacturer's website).
5) Easy to clean.
CONS
1) I wish it had more compartments as I'm a huge organization freak.
2) I guess when toting tons of baby stuff around you can't realistically ask for a smaller bag but I do wish it was a bit deeper instead of wide.
Overall I like this bag and my sister has some Eddie Bauer bag and she's jealous of my bag! She says hers is too bulky & unattractive!

Best diaper bag I have found!
I have tried many many diaper bags. It was hard for me to spend anymore money on them especially one that is $80 but i thought i would give it a try. I have a 2 yr. old and an 8 month old so i have to carry 2 sets of diapers 2 change of clothes snacks drinks baby food plus my things wallet phone and many more things. Everything fits in it perfectly and i love that it is very organized! (I hate digging for diapers etc....) Another plus is that i don't find it very heavy. Yes its heavier with ALL the stuff i put in it but for as big as it is its really not that bulky! The only thing i don't like about the bag is that when you set it down it leans to one side (the side with the 3 pockets)! I wish it would just stay upright! Other than that i love this bag i love the space the color the organization the diaper changing pad and it looks stylish!
