I decided to take the plunge on one of these...

Wow, I love those! Does anyone have one? That might be the solution for my 5 year old's dumping problem. We have his legos in bins but when he's looking for something, he dumps the whole bin out. With this, he could just open the bag and spread it out. Wonder if it would work??

I am wondering how many 18" build a bear stuffed animals it can hold. Anyone knows?

wow-it is charging me 8.00 for shipping . Totally would have ordered it otherwise!

Yes, the shipping for one bag is steep. I ordered two bags a few months ago when there was a 20% coupon code and paid $10 in shipping for the two bags. They are great for Legos. It is much quicker to clean up my son's Lego area when he can just toss them in the bag. We haven't had any dumping issues like we did with bins. When the bag is open, you can really see the pieces. When my son leaves for school, I draw up the bag, tie the drawstring and shove it under his play table so my 1.5 year old doesn't eat them. They are working out great for us.

I'd love it if they had some idea of the volume of stuff it would hold. They need a photo with a rubber maid bin of duplos or something with the size of the bin and then it all fitting into the swoop.

There is a competitor who makes a smaller bag - 18" and a larger bag - 60". I found it on Daily Grommet, which has one deal a day, but you can still buy items later on.

The prices are in line with Swoops, and the shipping is unfortunately around the same as well.

I emailed the owner who said:

"The Swoop bag is 44" in diameter and holds about 12 lbs of Lego. As far as volume for Duplo, it should hold over 150 pieces if not more. If you have a containter like this: http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-DUPLO-Bricks-Deluxe-Brick/dp/B003F82I2W/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1337105966&sr=8-4

You can always start with one, and if you decide you want more bags I am happy to offer you the 30% off discount that we have going on.

Hope that helps!

OK, I just went for 2 of these. Somehow paying $10 to ship 2 was more justifiable in my mind than paying $8 to ship 1. Plus, I couldn't decide between 2 colors so I got 1 of each!
