The bag is very stylish and the thing I was looking for "waterproof" for those dirty cloth diapers on the go. But I was disappointed in the size of the bag. It may only fit up to 3 fuzzi bunz cloth diapers at a time. We are accustom to taking long road trips and outings so this bag was not for us.

This a splurge since it's kinda expensive- but it has been great!

This was bigger than I expected, so I use it to organize my diaper bag (which is always chaotic). I store my changing pad and use the outside pocket for diaper wipes and the clean spare diaper. This is such a bonus!

I originally bought it for cloth diapers. It works great for that purpose too. Besides, what prettier thing could you want to store your soileds in?

This Bumkins wet bag is great for 3-5 cloth diapers. Is is cute and simple. For the cost ($5) it was a great purchase.

We've had this bag for 3 years now and it still looks new! I use one for wet/dirty stuff on the go. My kids take them along for their swim stuff. If you shorten the straps by knotting them at the bottom, you can make it into a backpack for lightweight things (favorite blanket or stuffed animal).

For diapers: it's a good choice, but not particularly air-tight. You have to wrap the strap around the opening a few times to seal in odors.

only con: The net pouch on the outside is useless. Just ignore it.

I bought this as a wet bag for my BG 3.0 cloth diapers. It works ok, but some aspects of it's design are annoying. It has very long cords so that the wet bag can function as a backpack. At first this was convenient for me to grab a clean diaper, stick the wet wipes in the mesh pocket and run with my baby to the restroom. However, I typically have the whole diaper bag with me, so this functionality is not important to me. Also, when I wash the wet bag the cords get wrapped around all the diaper and create a tangled mess. I finally just cut off the cords b/c they were becoming such a problem and don't seem to provide any extra protection against wetness in my diaper bag. I've found that it is not as waterproof as another wet bag I have that has PUL and cotton cover with zipper. The Bumkins has been known to make other things in my diaper bag damp if I have an especially wet diaper in it. I still use this bag, but it's not much more useful than reusing a grocery bag. I am in the process of ordering a different brand to try.

I got this on clearance in an ugly discontinued pattern, but I have some bibs in the other patterns and they are really cute in person, look just like the picture. I use it as a swim bag for my daughter - it fits one small towel (an infant's bath towel w/ a hood, not a beach towel) and a change of clothes. If you have a big beach towel it will probably stick out and also, when you make it too heavy, the drawstrings dig into your shoulders a bit - better to have a real bag w/ straps for heavy things. I like that I can put the shoes in the net on the outside so they don't get the clothes dirty. It's easy to use and I have washed it several times, once the drawstrings got all messed up and it was confusing to fix it - I had to turn the bag inside out and pull them back into position. But other than that, no problems - it holds up well and it takes up very little room in the diaper bag or drawer when you are not using it, folds up really small, too - that is a big feature for me.

This bag works for my afternoons out with two in cloth dipaers- meaning it holds 4-6 diapers at least (more if we are using prefolds that day. It's an attractive pattern (although not many people see it besides me) and it works- it holds wetness in and washes easily with no scent remaining. If it had a zipper I'd give it 5 stars, but for the price it's great. I usually carry any plastic bags that my husband tends to bring in from the store to wrap around any really stinky diapers anyway (even when using a zippered bag) and we always shake off anything we can before popping it in the bag anyway, so it's not a huge issue. Also I usually dust the bottom of the bag with baking soda or borax after each wash to further ensure we aren't wandering around with a stinky sack! It does close all the way, you just have to pay attention when you're closing it up at the toggle.

I love the prints that this wet bag comes in! The bag does keep wet in, and stays dry on the outside. BUT the strings tangle HORIBBLY in a center agitator washer!!! It took me the better part of 20 minutes to get it off the agitator and out of my diapers! I am planning to cut them down, they are seriously that bad in the wash!

I like the fact that this tote is waterproof and that it has a mesh pocket on the outside. It's a little smaller than I was expecting, but I didn't pay too much attention to the dimensions listed in the description. Overall this is a nice waterproof tote for $6.

This bag is great for when we go swimming. It makes bringing home all of our wet cloths hasle free.
