Product description
This
diaper bag is a must-have for every mom. Why? Well, the answer is simple. You will not only have the whole space that you need for your baby when you are on the go because this bag is practical but at the same time, you will be a stylish mummy. It is a bag that is versatile as you can wear it on your back like a
backpack when your baby is in your hands or when you push the stroller through the park you can simply put it on your shoulder and use it as a shoulder bag. However, if you decide to take it by the handle and carry it you can easily do this and carry the bag as a handbag. What we really like about the bag is that besides being versatile it offers many compartments that we are sure that you are going to use for all the things that you need for the baby every time you go out from the door. So this bag helps you to be organized and know every time where is that particular thing that you are looking for. The
bag is 14 inches wide, 12 inches in height and 6.5 in depth and the item weight is 2.51 pounds. The maximum recommended weight to be put in the bag is 100 pounds.
Design
The particular bag that we are reviewing today JuJuBe B.F.F has a nice design with black and white stripes with “golden” zips and it is called “First Lady”, but if you want to look at other options there are 7 more colors and designs to choose from. The bag is made of polyester and although many people are worried because of the white part and they fear that it is going to get dirty soon the bag has a special coating that prevents the bag from getting dirty. It has a pocket on the front that is opened and closed with a zip and many of the parents like to keep some simple and small things that they will need to access immediately like for example
sunglasses. This pocket is also called mommy pocket. In this compartment, there is one small pocket at the front, a zippered pocket and in addition another small pocket at the back of this front zipped pocket. Inside of this front pocket, there is very convenient kind of cord that is used to attach your keys on it so you will always know where are they and you will not spend time going through your bag in an attempt to find them. Some of the parents claim that this is a bit small but again there are so many other pockets where you can put different things. Just above this front pocket or often called mommy pocket, there is another one and this has very soft lining material and this is where you can keep your
phone for example because the softness of the material does not allow scratching. The interior of the bag or the main compartment is where you can see the real organization. The interior has a slightly brighter color which is good as when you open it has bigger visibility.
Material
The material of the bag is polyester and it is a high-quality fabric. Its interior is resistant to bacteria thanks to the Agion antimicrobial technology that fabrics and textiles are treated with in order to make them resistant to different influences and extend the lifespan of the products. It is very important to know that the bag is safe against mold as well as mildew especially because you carry mostly baby products in this
diaper bag and you want to make sure that they are safe when they are inside the bag. The fabric on the outside has been treated with Teflon that is used to protect the fabric
against spills and stains. Although, the fabric is treated in this way this does not influence on the color or in general the appearance of the bag. This type of treatment keeps the fabric in a good condition to be clean and to look like brand new. However, if something happens and your bag becomes dirty and messy from every day’s use then you can just grab the bag and throw it in a machine as it is machine washable. Certainly, this is very convenient when we know that this bag is being
used on daily basis with baby products. The material on the inside because of the lighter
color shows the stains and the spills but can be always
spot-cleaned. The bag is made to be durable so there are metal zippers and metal feet at the bottom which helps the bag stay well balanced and not to tip over when putting away. One of the weakest points of this bag is the zippers because they can often get stuck and there are some complaints that zipper can fall off.
Pockets and Organization
One of the best features of the JuJuBe
diaper bags is their organization or in other words pockets and some more pockets for all the stuff you are going to take with you. The mommy pocket, which is on the front of the bag has a zip that cannot be opened all around, meaning that it cannot be opened wide so it is not advisable to pack it too much. In this part, you have a special pocket for your sunglasses and what we especially like is the zipped pocket where you can keep money or ID and it is a safe place because of the zippers. On the sides of the bag, there are two pockets, which are insulated and are designed to be used for bottles so you can safely put the water and milk bottle for your child. On the back of the bag, there is also one great feature - a pocket where you can put the
changing pad for your baby. The changing pads are also made of memory foam and are very
convenient for changing diapers when you are on the go and it is nice that there is a special place that is separated from the main part. The changing pad is part of the whole package and it is styled in the same design as the bag.
The main compartment of the bag has a nice and wide opening with a zip so when you open it you can see all the contents in the bag very well and this is what parents love as they can get out things easily. It is organized into 4 pockets that are gusseted so there is an extra piece of material that strengthens the lining and there are 3 other pockets with zips. On one of the sides there are
special gaps for pictures or maybe if you travel you can put your passports or some documents because these gaps are transparent so you can see what it is and reach for it immediately.
This bag is also featured with something that is called a crumb drain, which is actually a kind of a gap that is sewn in a smart way and it enables you to shake out all the crumbs from the
snacks that you put in the bag.
Versatility
It is nice that this bag can suit your style and your needs at the same time. Diaper bag no longer means just a big bag where you randomly put lots of staff so when you need to find and take out something you are forced to empty all the contents. We discussed the organization part of the Ju-Ju-Be bags and what mommies love is that with a single move of the strap you can have three bags into one. The first option is to use the shoulder straps and clip them on both sides to have the option of a
backpack. The straps have an ergonomic design and they curve really well to the body. They are padded so stay nicely and comfortably on the back especially because of the
mesh material they do not cause
sweating. When this bag is used as a backpack because of the square form it may look a bit unnatural on the back. The straps are adjustable and can be easily clipped and unclipped to change the way of carrying. Another option for carrying is a pull handle that is convenient for grabbing and the handle is padded too so it is handy for carrying although this is the least favorite option as mommies always have full hands. One of the most common ways of carrying is as a shoulder bag or messenger bag, and you can do this by adding and removing the strap that has memory foam and it is super comfy and does not hurt the shoulder. It is a popular way of carrying especially because the strap is long so you can put it around the
stroller when you go for walks with your baby.
Value
We must admit that the JuJuBe B.F.F. is on the higher end of the prices for a diaper bag and if there is a con probably this is it - the bag is expensive. However, there are lots of customers who claim that at first they did not want to spend so much money on a
diaper bag but once they got the bag it really pays off and it is indeed a durable piece that will satisfy even the pickiest among us. One thing that you have to take into consideration when thinking about the price is the length of time because this bag can be your best companion throughout many experiences at least for three years.
Bottom line
This stylish and multi-functional bag is a favorite piece of the
accessory of many mothers because of its great features. It is a versatile
diaper bag that can be used as a handbag, a backpack, and a messenger bag, and you can simply change the way of carrying with the help of adjustable straps that can be attached and removed according to the needs. We love that there are so many
designs that you can choose from. The material of the bag is really nice and has been specially treated with Teflon not to get dirty and preserve the looks of a brand new bag. On the plus side, it can be easily cleaned as the bag is entirely machine-washable. All the compartments are
well organized and with lots of pockets that are safely closed with zips. One of the best features of this bag is the special gap that is called crumbs drain which keeps the bag clean from all the crumbs that come from the snacks. The interior of the bag has also undergone a special treatment that makes this bag resistant to mold and mildew so it is perfect for
food carrying as well as other staff. This bag is recommended by many moms because of its multi-functionality, versatility, high-quality, ease of maintenance and superb design.
