So far so good! Ive been wearing this for hours to break it in and its really comfortable. Packs down nice due to the side straps so its not as boxy and bulky as it looks in the pictures. It's not super lightweight but very comfortable with adjustable chest strap and good and well placed padded straps. The packing cubes are nice. I havent traveled with this yet though so cant say yet how sturdy the stiching or construction will hold up. The design is great though. Opens sideways like a suitcase and has good top and side handkes which will be convenient when the straps are tucked back and i use it through the airport. Nice that it will slide over my suitcase handles. That's what i was most looking for.

We had a much more expensive, more designer type dialer bag for baby 1. I loved it but my husband’s “super strength” pulled multiple zippers off. Along came baby #2 and the original bag had to go. This is a GREAT bag. Tons of inner pockets and extra zip areas to stash all the things. 1 insulated pouch for bottles to keep them cold. A pacifier holder. Comfortable. Sturdy to hold up to my husband’s aggressive zipper opening. And room to spare.

There is a section for each thing you need. Diapers, wipes, clothes, electronics, medicine and more. The quality is amazing and the size of the bag is perfect. The material used is nice and isn't cheap feeling at all. The color is vibrant and looks like the pictures. The versatility on this bag is tremendous. It can be used to hold many things and you wouldn't have to rummage through because everything has its own place.

Very high quality and has a very expensive look. Very nice bag with a lot of storage and well used space.

The packaging is the first thing I noticed. Very well packaged. The next was the color and it is true to color. Next was the size. Large with tons of storage areas. To reference of a school backpack, this was a perfect size. The quality of material looks strong and durable. The zippers look strong and durable. You can actually grip the zippers and zips,unzips easily. Has 2handles for just hand carry and has actual shoulder straps to hang from your back. Inside looks like easy cleaning if needed. I didn’t want this for a baby. I’m using this for my purse because I can have a place for everything I need. Purses just don’t seem to come with all those options. I do have kiddos so it’ll still come in handy. I would purchase this again or any of the other products. 10/10

I’ve been using this multifunction diaper bag backpack for a while, and it’s been a lifesaver! First off, it’s super roomy – there’s plenty of space for all the baby essentials, plus some extras. The compartments are well thought out, making it easy to stay organized. The durability is impressive too; it feels like it’s made to last, even with daily use.

The color is stylish and neutral, perfect for both moms and dads. The strap length is adjustable, and the padding makes it really comfortable to wear, even when it’s fully loaded. I’ve worn it for long outings without any shoulder pain. It’s functional without sacrificing style, so I can carry it around without feeling like I’m lugging around a typical diaper bag. Overall, it’s a great balance of practicality, comfort, and style.

The material is nice; I like the subtle purple color. The strap is adjustable, from cross body to shoulder.

The bag is amazing. It has a great quality it looks so fancy and it’s very comfortable because even though it’s small you can fit a lot of things in there.

This purse arrived on time and the colors match the online pictures. The strap is wide and comfortable to wear over your shoulder. The purse has a side pocket for easy access that easily holds a phone. The purse has held up to use and the material is durable. Many people have complemented my purse and asked where I got it.

This bag is absolutely adorable! It’s the perfect size to hold all my stuff, and I love the front pocket because it fits my phone snugly and makes it super easy to grab. The straps are super comfortable and adjustable, too.

I have been looking for a great all in one type of back pack, and have purchased several. This bag was a clear winner and I take it with me everywhere. Decent build quality, can hold plenty of weight and of course everything I need for a weeks trip. Excellent buy and highly recommend.

We now own 3 of these backpacks and will likely buy a 4th so everyone in the family has one. They are water proof, comfortable, roomy, organized and high quality. My only wish is that there were more color options (I love color) like Cotopaxi. But for the price and quality, there’s just no other choice.

UPDATE:

As part of a long work trip, I ended up having to stuff it to absolute capacity without opening the expansion (so that I could carry it on and not get stopped). This bag is an absolute win — even being fully stuffed (not even enough room for a pen), no issues whatsoever.

I see they offer a new variant with a vacuum portion, so can’t speak to that one. Highly recommend this bag!

ORIGINAL:

I spent a lot of time researching the perfect bag to use for my travels. For context, I travel internationally every month for 1-3 weeks. I go to some of the most remote regions where wifi, water, and electricity can be luxuries. I also travel to pretty modern cities and countries. In all, I travel to every continent frequently.

When looking for a travel bag, I needed something that could fit a LOT of stuff. I chose this bag because it can expand to the 50L size. If you read the reviews, many of them are for the other/smaller bags. This bag doesn’t have near as many negative reviews.

I have not had any issues with the bag. I agree that some of the internal zippers aren’t necessarily as strong as I would like, but I just don’t overpack it and force the zipper. That has kept it in excellent condition, while still allowing me to carry everything with me.

I originally was considering buying the Peak Design travel backpack (circa $300-$400), but I couldn’t justify the cost. I was worried that this bag would be cheap or poorly made, but it has been exceptional. Highly recommend to anyone who needs a rugged backpack for heavy duty work — this one is a work horse. Just don’t expect things it can’t do, and you won’t be disappointed.

Very comfortable, lots of pockets, fit well, and am considering buying another for the day that this one gives out (which doesn’t appear to be anytime soon).

Works perfect for all my gym needs. i store all my nicknacks neatly, been using it for years without issue

I'm a student who practically lives out of my backpack, carrying everything from textbooks and laptops to food, clothes, and even a mini medical kit. Finding a bag that can handle it all was a challenge, but this bag can do it!!

Here's the good:

- Dual Functionality: It seamlessly transitions from a spacious duffle bag to a comfortable backpack, making it perfect for any situation.
- Padded Straps: Unlike some duffle-backpack hybrids, this one has well-padded straps that make even the heaviest loads feel manageable.
- Ample Storage: This bag is seriously roomy! I can easily fit my 15-inch MacBook, food, headphones, daily essentials, medical kit, shoes, and a change of clothes without it feeling crammed.
- Durable Construction: The material feels sturdy and well-made, giving me confidence that it will last for years to come + water resistant up to a certain level. It gives a good cover for my stuff when I'm caught out in the rain.

Minor Concerns:
Carabiner Connection: While the carabiner connection at the bottom seems secure so far, I can't help but worry about its long-term durability. Hopefully, it proves to be as reliable as the rest of the bag.

Past Experience: I bought a similar, black color, backpack a while ago. However, it's zipper had broken within a year. Regardless, I found that I still wanted it so I decided to take extra care when I'm using the zipper. I think I just happened to overload it previously.

Overall:
Despite my minor concern about the carabiner, this bag has exceeded my expectations. It's comfortable, spacious, and versatile, making it the perfect companion for my busy student life. I even used it for a weekend trip recently, proving its adaptability beyond everyday use.

Value for Money:
This bag is definitely worth every penny. It was for me. While I wish they offered a warranty (especially considering my previous bag's zipper issue), the value it provides in terms of functionality, durability, and comfort outweighs that minor inconvenience. I'm confident I'll be using this bag for years to come!

Highly Recommend:
If you're looking for a duffle-backpack hybrid that can handle your day-to-day needs and even weekend adventures, look no further! This bag is an absolute steal and I highly recommend it to students and travelers alike.
