Columbia Vertical Glide Expandable Diaper Bag- Red

Just bought this and so far really like it. The thing that caught my eye was the insulated pocket for bottles. I'm a 2nd time mom and I have the trendy cute bags but going for function this time after one of my bottles leaked. My only complaint is that I saw another bag a week after I bought this one with two bottle compartments and you can fit 3 bottles in there. This one only has room for 1 pocket.

I absolutely loved this bag! I think it's roomy enough for everything essential as a first time mom. LOTS of pockets and a short zipper pocket on the top for all of my personal needs. (wallet, cell phone etc.) After about a week with the bag the straps started squeaking!! It is the most annoying thing ever, and I don't weigh down the bag with a bunch of useless stuff! Beautiful bag with great pockets/accessories, as long as you don't mind hearing a squeaking sound each time you move/take a step/ breathe... such a bummer!

NOTE* if it didn't squeak I would have recommended this product to a friend, but I don't want to embarrass them!

I have a 4 year old, a 3 year old, and a 7 month old and this bag is the perfect size for us. It's big enough to fit diapers, wipes, bottles, pacifiers, snacks, and spare clothes plus my wallet, phone, and keys! Even though it fits all this stuff it is still small enough that you can take it with you daily and you don't feel like you're lugging around a suitcase.

My son has terrible acid reflux so he spits up(really more like throws up) a TON. I have always needed to have several extra sets of clothing and at least 4 extra spit rags in the bag along with diapers, wipes, toys, hats, socks, lotions, thermometer, hand sanitizer, extra pacifiers, pain meds, my wallet, keys and cell phone, plastic bags for dirty diapers and a large cloth changing pad given as a gift--as big a blanket! and it ALL FITS!!!! I am so glad I got this bag instead of another smaller trendier one.

So far I cannot find a bag to compare to this one. I love the numerous pockets (I'm an organization freak), I love the look of the bag (doesn't look like a baby bag, sporty and fun, love the red color), I like the insulated pocket, and LOVE LOVE LOVE the tabs that let you hang the bag from the stroller. I get all kinds of compliments on this bag.

Quirks - as another person mentioned - when the bag is super full...the strap squeeks! It's terribly annoying. You can unzip the bag to make it expand - but because it's tall and not wide - sometimes it just doesn't fit everything. I scratch my hand alot when digging into the front two pockets due to the velcro.

But all-in-all like I said before - I can't find anything better. I just really really like the number, size, and placement of the pockets.

My favorite thing about this bag is that it is messenger style. I have always preferred hanging my bags over and around the shoulder, and now trying to also grab an infant carrier and about a million other things, this is even more handy! I love it!

I was so excited to get this bag- I read all the reviews on here and loved the look of it (plus red is my favorite colour)! I knew within 2 minutes of trying to fill it up that I hated it. I am not one of those moms who carries the entire nursery around with her but I found that this bag didn't hold half of what I needed...unless you don't mind the bag puffing out and stuff hanging out of every pocket! There are tonnes of pockets which I thought was a great feature but with limited room inside if you put anything in the interior pockets then there is no room left for anything else.

Anyway- I decided to keep it and give it a try. Took it on my first outing and just about lost my mind! It SQUEAKS! I'm not sure what the purpose of the "quick release" strap closures is supposed to be (I can actually see them letting go on their own) but what I wasn't expecting was how much noise they would make rubbing together as you walk.

I would not recommend that anyone buy this bag unless they find it in a clearance bin somewhere- except for the squeaking I think it might make a good purse- much better suited to a wallet, datebook and chapstick than diapers, wipes, a toy, a bottle and an extra shirt! It is not worth the price- I have two other bags that I paid less than half the price of this one and they are much more effective! :~)

The color is great and the material cleans easily. The bag is on the smaller side however. Not too sure if this bag will be good for everyday use.

This is a wonderful bag which my husband also can use. It has two front pockets, one large zippered compartment, one small zippered compartment behind that, which I keep my wallet and money in and another velcroed back pocket which is good for the included changing pad and a magazine or book. The inside has smaller pockets which I keep smaller things in like lipgloss, sanitizer and such. There are two side pockets, one being insulated and zippered for a bottle. Since I breastfeed it's usually my water in there. The strap can be shortened to wear as a shoulder bag or lengthened for a messenger. It also has stroller clips to hook on a stroller.There is also a zipper which expands the bag if you need more room. This bag holds ALOT but isn't bulky or too large. It cleans easily and is attractive. I can also use it as a regular bag since nothing about it screams baby bag. My husband also doesn't mind carrying it. Very good bag for a great price. Anyone complaining that they can't find anything isn't organizing properly. There are so many compartments that it's easy to keep similar items together. I even hook my keys through the loop and tuck my cell phone in the back pocket with my wallet.

I got this as a baby shower gift and absolutely LOVE it! I love all the compartments, color, style and how easy it is to clean! I love it!
