I bought this because I use slings all the time - and thought the idea of a carrier and a bag in one was genious! However, after using it only a few months, the zippers split (can't be repaired without taking out stitching) and the zipper pulls broke off. The interior is okay in size, but because the opening is small, it's hard to find what you're looking for. The pockets on the sides and inside are handy; and the carrier works great. Overall, an okay bag ... I just need more durability.

I purchased this bag at my local Target store because it was on clearance for half off. I think it's a little small and while it works for me, I wouldn't reommend it for a first time mom or anyone who feels the need to take entirely way too much with them. My son is now 30lbs and too heavy for it, but we are expecting again and it will be great to use this with the new baby.

when I was told I was having twin boys I knew I needed a great diaper bag with lots of room - this one claimed to have lots of storage room and space - give me a break! My boys are four months old now and I finally gave up - the pockets are too small and the main portion of the bag is deep, yet gets smaller as it goes up so you have to stuff everything in and yank everything out. Sure it comes with a few accessories and looks trendy, but its not worth it! Really a big dissapointment.

This is my second one. Only because I sent the first one back because the zipper wouldn't stay put, and the second one is the same way. I have found that after you put everything you need it it, it is to heavy for the zipper to hold. I am still using it because it cost so much, I figured I'd use it until it was completely destroyed. Which will not be long now, cause I'm due again in Feb.

I got this bag as a gift from my sister. I loved it at first, then quickly realized it is a small bag. It's hard to get things in and out of the opening and it really doesn't hold a whole lot. We kept the diapers in the lower zipper pocket and forgot to show my in-laws where they were. They could feel the diapers, but never found them. Plus, I am a plus-size and the harness looks silly on me. The lower zipper ended up breaking and the clasp to hold the main strap did as well. I am trying to get a hold of the company to see if they will replace it. Overall, if it didn't break, I would use it for a short day trip diaper bag, not my main one.



They did replace it!! they sent me a new one with no questions asked. They also did say that another company picked up the patent so maybe they will be different in the future!!

I didn't like this bag at all. To much money for this bag. The material stains very easy and is really hard to get clean.. There is a lot of room in the bag, but it doesn't hold stuff in its place because there is no thinckness to the material.

I love this bag. It fits all I need plus more. It's very comfortable as a carrier and my son loves it! The side pockets are great for the Take 'n' Toss cups too. As of this moment, my son is 14 months so my bag consists of a large wipes container and diapers. I keep his sippy cup in one side pocket and his pacifier in the other. I have all of my "personal" information/items in the zipper pockets, and still have plenty of room for one or two outfits and a toy or two. Love this bag and highly recommend it. I only wish I would have know about it sooner!

I bought this bag on sale after reading all the fabulous comments from other happy people, but was quickly disappointed. For one thing, it doesn't look that great on. It sticks out funny and the mouth of the bag is small and hard to fit an average size wallet through. On my bag, the zipper that keeps the strap down when not used as a baby carrier will never stay zipped and the non-slip thingy on the strap is always twisting and turning. I do have to say that as a baby carrier it is comfortable and fun to use, but as a bag it was too bulky and funny for me. My husband said it looked weird and I considered returning it but changed my mind - I may use it at the zoo or something. Another thing, you really can't fill it up too much. Maybe that was my problem as I usually carry a change of clothing for my toddler with me. In conclusion, I would try and see one in person before ordering this bag online because it's such a different design it's really not for everyone.

This diaper bag is the best mommy-saver ever. At the zoo there was an exhibit that didn't allow strollers and I was able to keep all my stuff with me and contain my one-year old. At McDonald's I could hold her while ordering without my arms giving out. It's the best! Talk about convenient and so easy to use. My baby was comfy being held in it close up to my chest -- just like me carrying her, but easy on me! Love this bag.
