J.L. Childress Gate Check Bag for Car Seats

Don't expect this bag to be a long lasting one. It is made with the cheappest materials and construction. Due to the "not so special treatment at the airports", you'll need a replacement after 3-4 uses. If you are a person that rarely travels, maybe this is the product you're looking for. I personally found that heavy-duty trash bags work better than this "fancy" gate check bag.

Checked it as baggage and after the first flight it came with several holes and tears. After the secondflight, it is completely torn apart. The airline baggage folks don't care much and this bag will not hold up to their treatment at all. Save your money and look for a quality bag if you want to protect your stroller.

Used the bag for one cross country flight. During the first, initial use, it ripped at several points in the seams. On the return flight, it fell apart. Complete waste of money.

While this bag is handy...it's not made of the best materials. After using it 3 times, it has ripped(well, 3 trips, so 6 uses(2 @ each airport)).
It is also not waterproof. So cover your stroller/carseat in a garbage bag, then put it inside this bag. Otherwise you run the risk of having a soggy carseat/stroller (thanks jerks @ Miami airport! You can guess how we found this out)

Used this bag to protect my son's Evenflo Triumph carseat. For anyone that knows this carseat is HUGE! It fit perfectly in the bag and there was plently of extra room. In fact I had to throw some things in the carseat bag to keep from having to pay an overage charge for my suitcase. It has held up well. Keeps my carseat clean, easy to see which seat is yours and has a carrying handle.

used this on our 1st flight with my 3 month old. Easy to unpack from it's self contained bag (so compact) and it fit over my big infant car seat with base attached! Love it - I saw the gunk and scratches/tears that would have been on my car seat if I had not have used it. Not as cheap of fabric as I was expecting. I'm going to buy the stroller one next.

The bag is big enough to fit most standard car seats. It does rip easily though. I used it once when I flew and when the car seat was returned to me, it had a few small rips and it was frayed at the edges. I would recommend this for light traveling.

This fit my graco carseat and base easily. I gate checked and it came out ok. It was dirty, so it saves my carseat from getting dirty...but it's starting to separate at the seams so don't expect longterm use from this product. You get what you pay for

I used this cover when we traveled and it protected the seat wonderfully. I wish it closed a bit better as the drawstring gets really long and doesn't completely close around the top of the seat....but overall it worked exactly like I needed it to. And it folds up into this great small little carrying bag.
