UPDATED REVIEW at the end of this as of May 19, 2023We have only had this diaper bag for about a month, but have taken a vacation and many other outings so far. I just wanted to put that out there before I made my review!Our bottles actually fit in the bottle pockets! We use the playtex bag bottles, and they are very tall and very wide, compared to all of the other bottles. I was so excited to see that they actually fit!One of my favorite things about this bag is the changing pad that comes with it, and the hidden pocket to put it in. I also store my wallet in that pocket for ease of getting it in and out without having to take the backpack off (and because it’s more concealed there, rather than in one of the front pockets).This backpack is very cute, but isn’t too feminine looking, so it doesn’t look funny for my husband to carry it.It’s great that it has so many pockets, but it’s almost impossible to put something in every pocket and it still function as it should. So, I look at it as there are several different options as to where and how you can store your things.A feature that set this bag apart from the others I was looking at, was the straps to attach it to a stroller or shopping cart. We have already used those a lot!One minor thing I’m not a fan of, is what is supposed to be the wipe pocket. I can’t imagine any package of wipes being able to use the slot for the wipe dispenser. The slit in the pocket makes that side pocket useless for us, as we don’t want to put our phone or keys in it because they would fall out. I would rather just have two solid side pockets. However, that pocket works just fine for my self defense mechanism that is in its holster.This bag seems to have great durability so far. The material is very sturdy and I’ve not yet seen any questionable seams. I will update this review if anything related to the durability changes, but I don’t see that happening!Overall this is a fantastic bag and I seriously love it more and more each day!UPDATED REVIEW - May 19, 2023I felt it was important to come back and review this backpack. We purchased this backpack in March of 2021 and we have used it every single day since then, more than 2 years later! It has been through a lot and it still looks brand new! I have put it in the washing machine several times with zero issues! I even had to put it into the dryer once and was terrified it would come out in pieces, but it was perfect. (I don’t plan on drying it again just for durability’s sake.)This bag has been wonderful, and is comfortable to wear for extended periods. Even now, as my son is off of bottles, potty trained, and no longer needs much in a diaper bag, we still use this bag for a change of clothes, snacks, etc.We will welcome our second child into the world at the end of June and I’ve not even thought about buying a new diaper bag, as this one is practically still in perfect condition!The only thing that is not perfect is one of the bottle pockets’ top seam has lost some stitches, but it still functions as a pocket and I think I might try to sew it up before we need bottle pockets again. But that is literally the only thing that has lost stitches or shown any type of wear and tear!The bottom of the bag where it sits is still perfect! Zero scuffs or tears at all.After we bought this diaper bag, my sister-in-law got herself one for her family. They had 3 kids at the time, now 4, and had been through many diaper bags that tore and wore out very fast. This bag has also lasted them just as long with zero wear and tear!As you can tell, I cannot say enough good things about this diaper bag! And the price makes it even better! GET THIS BAG! You won’t regret it!
