Review on Stylish and Functional: JJ Cole Gray Floret Backpack Diaper Bag by Chris Worlds

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Needs Many Improvve

I specifically chose this bag for its backpack function and cute style. Pros: Plenty of pockets and storage for baby supplies - Room for cloth diapers, cloth wipes and a wet bag - External pockets fit my stainless steel water bottle. Good zipper under the flap. Easily erased. ) -Very cute prints, gotten lots of compliments after only using it once. -The detachable shoulder strap is great as I only use the backpack function. Cons: -The backpack straps are TERRIBLE uncomfortable. Painful abrasions appeared on my arms after only 45 minutes of wearing. - The magnetic clasp is very difficult to close. I have to look at it, align it and then slide it in. Lots of time and frustration. - Very narrow interior. Difficult to look for things on the bottom, and the bag doesn't "spread" easily for easy digging (although the tightness at the back is very good) Conclusion: Overall a very good bag, but I'm very disappointed with the painful backpack straps and I'm sending it back because of that factor. The bag would also benefit from a small loop at the top for easy grabbing if you just need to move rather than put it on. Yes, it has a shoulder strap for that, but it's awkward to hold that strap if you only intend to use it for a backpack. It also needs a better magnetic closure. I have an adorable $12 backpack that has a much better magnet, more comfortable shoulder straps, and fits the same amount of gear. Pocket organization is simply lacking. In my opinion, this bag needs a lot of improvement and is not worth 80€. I contacted the company to see if they have any type of belt padding to make this bag comfortable to wear.
