It's going back...I thought I'd like it more, but when I fill it up it looks like a camera bag to me. I thought it would be a little more stylish looking. It's also not as big as I thought it would be...yes, it does hold a lot, but when you fill it, it seems like it's stuffed. I was hoping I'd love it.

Oh well! :)

I got one too and decided not to use it as a diaper bag for the same reasons. I almost returned it, but figured it would make a great airplane carry on.

I'm with you on this. Although it held everything I needed it to hold, it just felt HUGE. Like I was always knocking into things...it went back.

I hear you.

I actually had a buyer for mine on Baby Bags, but my DH got wind of the plan and kicked up a fuss. Apparently HE liked the bag. hrumph!

Usually, if he absolutely HAS to carry a bag, he'll take a LE LT in black. But, for the beach this summer, the LL Bean Diaper bag (same as the large touring, just with the lime green interior) seemed to be a hit with him.

I've tried to talk him into a Diaper Dude, but he hates carrying bags messenger style, so that's out (too bad, I like the camo!). I also tried to talk him into a Mustard Sprout bag, but he thinks it looks too big.

So, maybe try pawning your bag off on daddy?!

Well, I have to say that I really like mine! It's definately not pretty and it is big, but the organization really works well for me. I can find everything so quickly and easily. Plus, I figure I can use this for travel or whatever once the kiddos are older. It's well made at a great price. I have the touring bag, not the diaper bag, so the interior is gray not lime green, but I like that better. Right now, I'm only using it for day trips or traveling, but expect to use it more when DD get here.
