The Bumble Collection Chloe Convertible Bag

The Bumble Collection Chloe Convertible Bag, Evening BloomAugust 2011 BumbleBags just got a HUGE thumbs up, in my book! I had a slight issue w/ the bag. I called their customer service and they are SENDING ME A NEW BAG, no questions asked!! I'm so impressed! I talked to a REAL person, she was very kind and apologetic that I'd experienced issues, and she absolutely stood behind their product. I'd do business with Bumble Bags again, in a heartbeat. Thanks for making a great product and standing behind it!!!!!!!!!!

March 2011 I just received this bag today and am in LOVE with it! My baby isn't due until May, but I have 3 other children and thus, lots of experience with diaper bags.

This diaper bag seems to have it all; numerous pockets that are well-placed and a good size (there are 3 large zippered pockets, 2 magnetic-closure pockets, 2 inner bottle pockets and 2 rectangular "sleeves" for diapers and wipes), sturdy straps and hardware, nice-size zipper pulls that are functional and not awkward.

The material feels much sturdier than I expected and has nice details. The changing pad (solid gray color) folds up and fits nicely inside the bag because it's NOT that stiff, plastic material you'd find in most diaper bags. I'm looking forward to using the different strap configurations, and they seem easy to move and switch around. The drawstring bag included to store the strap appendages is very sturdy and slips nicely inside the diaper bag without being bulky.

In summary...

Although I haven't put it to real, practical use, I have a good "gut feeling" about this bag, based on the numerous diapers bags I've owned and worn out in the past. :) Good quality, great organizing potential, sturdy hardware and of course, SUPER cute design in both shape and material. This bag gets a HUGE "two thumbs up" from me. It's my first time seeing a bag by "Bumble Bags", much less purchasing one but I am a believer!!!!!

UPDATE: THREE MONTHS LATER...

I LOVE THIS BAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our baby came in May, and I've used it every single day since then. I can get an amazing amount of stuff into it. I love the outside end pockets because they're great for slipping my phone and keys into. I have used the convertible straps several times and my favorite configuration is the one where I can attached the bag to my stroller, and it only takes 10 seconds to swap out the straps for that stroller option-REALLY easy to do and convenient.

The only, very minor issue I have with it is that the straps can cut into the shoulder and neck a bit, if the bag is particularly heavy, because they're made of seat-belt like material. I wish the makers of the bag had put a slide-able shoulder pad/protector on the strap. BUT, that being said, I woulld absolutely get this bag again. I get lots of compliments on it, and it's worth every penny!

I absolutely love this diaper bag and the print is adorable. I don't even use my purse anymore because this bag is so convenient and cute. I have two little girls and another baby on the way, so I wanted to get a diaper backpack to make things easier! I love that this bag is convertible so you can choose how you want to wear it. The metal rings on the straps are perfect for clipping your keys to and I use the magnetic-close pockets on each side for my cell phone, chapstick, and gum (in one pocket) and my diaper cream and hand sanitizer (in the other pocket). Very easy access. I also love the two pockets inside made for sippies or bottles. The two pockets on the inside for a travel case of wipes and diapers are also very nice. I have never had a diaper bag that made me feel so organized. :) Really couldn't ask for more...definitely worth the $$!

Buy The Bumble Collection Chloe Convertible Bag Now

I ordered this bag hoping for a colorful, convertible bag with good organization and easy stroller straps. I was dissapointed with my skip hop duo deluxe (great stroller clips and pockets, good medium size for day use, but too hard to find anything in the main compartment once full) and I like my Timi and Leslie backpack covertible bag pretty well but it is definitely boxy and can be cumbersome when full. This bag is very pretty and is a good medium size but the opening is narrow and the bag is deep so I think it would be hard to fish out what you're looking for easily. The side pockets seem like they would be good for bottles but not much else because they are tall and narrow (I don't use bottles so they were no use to me), I did like that these had magnet closures though. The front and back pockets are roomy but didn't have smaller pockets for organization, so again, would be fishing around for what you need. The biggest issue I had with this bag was the material, it is supposed to be stain resistant but it seems like it would get dirty easily. However, I only loaded this bag up to see if it would work for me but never road tested it. I might have kept it if I had seen other reviews that stated it stayed clean (then again, I didn't see any that said it got dirty but there aren't many reviews on this at all right now). If you want a convertible bag with functional pockets for organization, and something that will stay clean / be easily cleaned, I'd go with the Timi and Leslie canvas collection backpack or tagalong (this is the best I've found so far after using the skip hop duo deluxe and a large laminated kate spade and after ordering, loading up and subsequently returning (without actually using) a bumblebag convertible and skip hop versa). Hope this helps!

Love everything about it, specially the different handle attachments. I will continue using past the diaper stages for sure because I love it. I use it now mostly for short trips for 2 babies and it holds everything i need. sometimes i wish it was a little bigger, but i hate big bags so i manage to always find a way to fit everything i need in it.
