JJ Cole System Bag - Cocoa/Oval

Okay, I loved this bag in the store. LOVED. I bought it even though it was kind of a splurge. I was really excited that it would hold two sippy cups (two kids, two cups) and just enough kid and mom stuff to get through the day. Until the first time I used it. Seriously the next day the fabric around the curve in the large zipper section started to pull away and fray out. And the bag wasn't even that full. I figured I had just gotten a lemon and brought it back to switch. They didn't have the same bag left so I got a different color, same style. The fabric around the zipper in that bag held up for 3 weeks, then the same thing happened. Since it had been a month since the original purchase the store would no longer return it so I stuck the fabric to the liner with fabric glue. Now 9 months later the zipper finally just busted and I can throw it away. A word to the wise: this bag looks very trendy in the store, not so much with batting hanging out of the liner.

I love this bag! I bought this after unhappily going through 3 other bags. I love the fact that it doesn't look like a regular diaper bag. I read some of the other reviews for this bag in different colors and it seems quite a few people have had trouble with the stroller straps, so far I haven't had a problem with them, they've held up great and I'm a little bit of an over-packer.The mp3 pocket is great and is the perfect size for a camera when you are out with the family. The one thing that is a bit of a down fall is the over-all size, there are a lot of pockets but they fill up quickly, I've noticed since having this bag I have cut down on what I put in my diaper bag but like I said before I do tend to over-pack. The zipper to the main pocket is a little awkward to find at first but after using the bag a few times it's not a problem. Overall I LOVE this bag and would recommend it to anyone.

I'm a big fan of JJ Cole's products but I wasn't thrilled with this bag. It looks cute but I have a two year old and a newborn and there just isn't enough room inside. In all fairness, maybe I just have too much stuff and if you only have one baby you can probably get away with this bag, but sadly mine is gathering dust in the closet.
