WhodaThought Mrs. Smith's Exotic Diaper Bag, Giraffe Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a fantastic diaper bag. I had been looking for a larger diaper bag to accommodate things for a toddler and a newborn, but didn't want my cloth diapers and wipes, etc to fall to the bottom of the bag. With this bag, I'm able to separate the things for my toddler and my little guy, and I know exactly where everything is (things also stay put in this bag! No shuffling around for things! I can hold four cloth diapers, two covers, changes of clothes for both children, four pull ups, a case of wipes, cloth wipes, a snack, my cell phone, and even my knitting bag (or other extra things) and know exactly where they are and get them quickly!
The only reason that I gave it 4 starts instead of 5 is that I have noticed some things that would make this bag better. I purchased it in order to wear it as a backpack, and it functions well as a backpack, but the straps don't stay put very well. I'm constantly readjusting the tightness of the straps to get a secure fit. Also, I could do without so many bottle/sippy cup pockets, and could use one more storage pocket on the inside. A handle on the top (like there is in the Mrs. Smith's daddy bag) would also be really useful. Every time I grab for the bag, I think about how nice it would be to have a grab handle. Also, the included changing pad is great to have, but difficult to fold back up and put back in the slot without a helping hand. I usually end up just putting it in the top part until I get back to somewhere where I can put baby down (unless I'm babywearing at the time - and even then, folding it up is a little tricky.)
A big plus is that my toddler loves laying on the bag like a big pillow because of it's plushiness. Double duty! This has been useful many times already.
But overall, this was a great purchase. I'm much happier with this bag than I would be with the bags that I had for my diaper bag before! Worth it!

The exotic is adorned with long-lasting metal hardware and has an exterior with every imaginable advantage to make parents' lives easier: a mesh water-bottle holder; a draw-string pouch great for mom's water bottle, coffee mug or thermos; and padded pockets on both ends that are great for holding mom's cell phone or sunglasses. There is also an exterior hook for a pacifier pod or keys. The interior of the bag is hidden under an adjustable velcro flap-cover with adjacent zippers, which simultaneously keep items secure but also allow for easy access to the interior of the bag. Additionally, four silver 'feet' on the bottom of the bag keep the fabric from ever becoming dirty from contact with the ground. Beneath the adjustable Velcro flap-cover with adjacent zippers, which simultaneously keep items secure but also allow for easy access to the interior of the bag, there is a pouch which holds a conveniently and cleverly placed washable changing pad. Underneath the expansion flap the spacious top compartment has six additional pockets. Three insulated cup-holders that ensure drinks will be available for the entire family. A thin, elastic-rimmed pocket is custom-built for an epipen for kids with allergies but is also great for holding pens or a 'Tide To-Go Pen'. The two final pockets, one that is enclosed by a zipper and the other that opens accordion style, guarantee that even on days when mom leaves with the kids first thing in the morning and returns right before bed time, she will have everything she needs organized and easily accessible. Most diaper bags fit stuff. Mrs. Smith's bags fit everything. Most diaper bags have pockets for stuff. Mrs. Smith's bags have an organizational system of pockets and a pull-out drawer that are unmatched. Most diaper bags are made entirely for mom. Soft enough to double as a pillow or a stuffed animal.Pull-out drawerLightweightInsulated bottle and sippy-cup holderA washable, full-sized changing pad includedConverts to a backpack
