Diaper Bag Backpack, FIVEMAX Multifunction Travel Back Pack Maternity Baby Nappy Changing Bags, Large Capacity Waterproof & Dustproof, Gray

I'm a new parent and I was offered the chance to receive a complimentary diaper bag / backpack to test it out. As a parent with several backpacks, but no dedicated diaper backpack, I was really interested to give this a go. Up until now, I've been using a diaper bag that I really never liked (a sort of traditional diaper bag, not a backpack), and an old Jansport that's just a regular backpack. It works fine, but there's just one large compartment so it's hard to find things quickly when you need them (everything gets jostled around and mixed together).Honestly, this is a very nice and well-thought out bag. My only complaint-- and it's a small one-- is that I had trouble figuring out what the dedicated compartments and straps are for. I had to carefully look at the pictures on Amazon to get the most from the bag. I think the company out to include a little instruction booklet or card with pictures because unless you get back on Amazon to look at the pictures, you may not know what some of the features are-- and there are some cool features.That's about all I don't like. Let's talk about what I do like.The material this bag is made of is sort of a grey denim. Feels very durable, looks good, and is very neutral. It'll go with anything, and I like that (some of the colors and patterns on diaper bags are a little dated to me). This one is pretty minimalist chic. It's rain and water resistant too. A HUGE plus here in the Northwest. I didn't just take the company's word for it: I spilled an entire glass of water on the back of the bag and it slid right off leaving no dampness or wet spots. Like water off a duck's back. I imagine this would help it be stain resistant too-- although I didn't try to intentionally stain it. My son will do that over the next few months.The bag also uses some leather-like accents, straps, and piping. The material looks really good (textured like leather, doesn't scream "vinyl." the four plastic straps all feel sturdy and are on par with Jansport, Patagonia, etc. They seem like they will hold up, and don't strike me as cheap.The bag has enough compartments, but not too many. If that makes sense. Sometimes bags will really try to force you to put everything in a really specific place, and I like that this bag gives you some logical places to put things, but doesn't really get to the point of feeling pushy. For example, there are insulated holders for two cold or warm bottles, there's a spot to keep and easily dispense tissue, two uninsulated places for water bottles, and there's a large sleeve pocket that looks perfect for a laptop, notebook, or tablet, but then the rest of the pockets, compartments, and zippered areas you can do what you like. One other feature is that you can easily strap this to the back of the stroller. I couldn't figure out what the straps were for-- but when I did-- I thought that was a nice touch. I don't like having to take up space in the bottom compartment of my jogging stroller for a diaper bag.On last thing I'll say that sounds obvious, but if you are a parent-to-be and don't know this yet, I want to share it: You are going to wish you had more hands and arms. Between chasing around your kid, holding a water bottle, picking up something that dropped or was thrown on the floor, the last thing you need is to be struggling to hold a diaper bag in your hand. In my opinion, shoulder bags are not much better-- in fact they can be worse. When the bag slides from your back or hip, it swings down like a pendulum and is even more difficult to manage. Also, with conventional diaper bags, you're always putting them on the ground, and who knows how dirty the floor is when you visit a public restroom or diaper changing room. Personally, I think backpack style is the ONLY way to go. But that's me. If you insist on carry the diaper bag more like "purse style" or "handbag style," you can certainly do that with this bag. There are even handles on top that are easy to grab.I hope you found this review helpful, and I think you'll really be happy with this backpack.

This diaper bag/backpack deserves all of the stars. To say I love it, is an understatement. Before this backpack, I had the regular diaper bags that you throw over your shoulder and it was okay but I didn’t know what I was missing until I got this. There is so much storage space too. The little pocket on the back is perfect for my phone and all the inside pockets in the main compartment of the bag are perfect for everything I need (diapers, wipes, changing mat, diaper cream, and burp cloth). The very front pocket is waterproof which is perfect for dirty clothes. I have had to use it twice when my son has had blowouts. The clips on the back are perfect for clipping the bag onto the handlebar of the stroller or grocery cart. When I used to go grocery shopping, I would have the infant seat and diaper bag in the big part of the basket taking up all the space so I could barely get any groceries. Now I can clip the diaper bag onto the handlebar and fit more groceries in the cart. If I could give this diaper bag more stars I would. You won’t be disappointed with it.

We had a diaper bag fall apart at the seams so this was fine for a replacement. Most diaper backpacks have bottle compartments made for small bottles however we need it for the taller ones. After much sorting through what’s out there, this option seemed promising.I’m happy to report it’s durable, it’s been on us for several Summer holidays without falling apart and it holds quite a lot. The backpack looks neutral and it doesn’t scream “diaper bag” so my husband isn’t hesitant to carry it.I’d buy it again.

I ordered the backpack for a baby shower, but it came with a ripped seam where the handle met the backpack. I returned it (at a local Kohl's) after completing a form online & received a new one in only 2 days. I love the look of the backpack, but don't know how durable it is as I haven't heard from the recipient of the gift, therefore giving it 3 stars. Hopefully, the ripped seam isn't due to poor workmanship.

I wish I could give this diaper bag 10 STARS. You guys, it’s seriously that good. I had a JuJuBe bag and felt there still wasn’t enough storage and didn’t like the overall set up. Also tried the Eddie Bauer grey backpack and hated it! It was so heavy and just not practical. I was a little skeptical seeing this bag on Amazon for such a reasonable price but this bag is THE BEST. Super lightweight and functional. Every pocket makes sense and has a purpose. And the bottle pocket is extra long/tall so it accommodates a 8 oz Dr Brown bottle with the cap on with no problem. High quality stitching and material and zippers feel like a great quality as well. The center main compartment is so big that it is easy to find everything. I cannot day enough good things about this bag!

I've been using this bag for 5 months and loved it, but yesterday the zipper of the outer pocket just fell off. It appears due to stitching that didn't hold . I have taken good care of the bag and haven't overloaded the pouch that the zipper fell off of, but now I can no longer use it bc I can't zip the pouch and it just hangs wide open.... Very disappointing.

Two zippers broke within the first few weeks.

Great quality @ An unbeatable price!I do have a variety of different diaper bags for my new little man’s daily adventures… Some being more higher in price range. I found this gem during a lightning sale and figured why not just get it as a “back up bag.” I may have planned on only using it occasionally However, I find myself reaching for this as my go to diaper bag of choice! So many versatile compartments proving to be quite helpful on Days out & about with my newborn Son.Highly recommend it! 💯🥰🙏🏻
