Review on Baby Diaper Bag Backpack: 25L, Ultra Lightweight & Multifunctional, with Changing Mat, Stroller Straps & Organizer Pouches by Denise Ward

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nearly perfect!

I did NOT purchase this bag to use as a diaper bag. I wanted a carry-on and camping bag that would accommodate art, books, water bottles, snacks, chargers, etc. I also wanted it to be lightweight, not bulky, relatively convertible from a backpack to your bag, and cute. :) I only used it once. What I like: - Great price! That's a lot of bags for the price if they're as durable as I hope. Large selection of bags. Lots of space in the main compartment with well thought-out accessory pockets. I love that the computer case has velcro to keep it from rocking. I love the inner side pocket for a baby bottle, but I use it for a pencil case and drawing tools. My 3x5 sketchbook, 2 books, kindle, beach towel, chargers, headphones, snacks all fit in my main bag leaving me a lot more room. The zippered front compartment with insulated pockets was surprisingly helpful in keeping my AirPods and phone cool and clean at the beach. The outer side pockets are HUGE which is great for a large water bottle and I love it but maybe not so sure for something smaller. My 24 ounces fit easily but not snugly. Color and material, inside and out. I love the purple with turquoise zipper pulls! And it's not black on the inside! Light gray is much better for finding things. The material repels water and dirt well. Very easy. Doesn't add any bulk or weight at all. It even folds compactly if you want to store it away instead of carrying it around. Adjustable chest strap. Worn as a backpack, it offers a little extra support. I like having a chest strap so the shoulder straps don't rub against my armpits. - Two bonus bags. It is packaged in a drawstring pouch and includes an orange drawstring tie inside. I'm not sure what I'm going to use them for, but I love the supplements. :) - Stroller belts and changing pad. If I needed this as a diaper bag these features would be SO handy and easily accessible. But I won't use them. What I don't like: - Nothing specific yet, but here's what worries me. - Shoulder straps and plastic fittings. Due to the fact that the material and the bag as a whole is so light, you may find that the shoulder straps begin to tear along the top seam. In fairness this area is reinforced with shoulder straps, but I see the problem with the shoulder straps. I hope for the best and plan to surprise you. Again, plastic hardware is used to keep the bag light and I'm not sure about the durability. Overall, I'm VERY excited that this bag is exactly what I wanted! Diaper bags have come such a long way; They are like a hidden market for versatile bags!
