(More customer reviews)It's a very nice looking bag (I bought the Blue Paisley print on sale, but have seen other prints in person which are just as nice). The material is nice and it's pretty, but there are MANY shortcomings which makes this bag totally not worth paying even half price for:
(1) The flap is held shut only by a single magnet snap, which is located too far down on the bag. Basically you can never close the flap if you have the normal amount of things in it, and when the snap is undone, the flap lifts up, and looks and feels like the contents will all fall out. I had to manually sew on some velcro strips on the flap to solve this problem (which did work) but was a true pain in the ***.
(2) The bag is too slim, i.e. the base is narrow, so the bag will not sit up by itself. This is normally not a problem since I can hang the bag on the back of chairs etc, but it gets really annoying when you are trying to change your child's diaper in a bathroom for example.
(3) The bag has many compartments, but most are just flat, non-elastic divisions. Because of this, the bag actually holds very little. Especially in the back of the bag (where your back touches), there are two compartments just sitting open. This is really dumb, because if you put anything bulky in them (even a single diaper), these pockets bulge out and you can see the contents of the pockets. Not only that, it makes the bag sort of float on your back, like an overstuffed burrito. So, basically you can't use those compartments for anything useful.
(4) There is only one pocket (in the entire bag) that will hold cups/bottles upright, which is annoying if you have two kids, or if you want to carry two bottles/sippy cups.
I used one of my older LE SPORT SAC bags as a diaper bag before purchasing this, which held SO MUCH stuff, was super light, and was completely machine-washable. But, with a second baby coming, I found that my fake diaper bag didn't have enough useful pockets, so I bought the Bumble Bag (because it was on sale for so cheap) hoping for a more organized space. Having used the Jessica bag for about 2 weeks now, I really wish I would have spent the extra cash (true, it would have been about 4 times the price) and purchased the LE SPORT SAC diaper bag instead.... If you are thinking about purchasing any of these Bumble Bags at full price, don't do it - look around some more.
