I recently bought this with high hopes. We need this to protect our rather huge and expensive Britax Marathon on our transatlantic trip. It is advertised as fitting all car seats. Not some- all. This is NOT true. Our Britax Marathon does not fit in this bag. It looks sturdy enough (that's why I gave it 2 stars) but don't be fooled. If you have a large car seat like the Britax models, don't waste your money on this. I'm sending it right back.

Purchased this bag for our Graco SafeSeat Step 2. This bag was basically to protect the seat fabrics and straps from getting mangled by the Airlines. It did it's job. It's basically a sack with a zipper. If you're looking for padding and wheels, this isn't the bag for you. If you're looking for something to keep airline grease and funk off your carseat for minimal cost, this is your bag. Shoulder strap and zippered compartment came in handy...

We have two of these travel bags for our two Britax Marathons and they fit perfectly with room for extra blankets or stuffed animals. As long as you orient the car seats correctly, they fit great. And the bags are easy to carry through the airport. We're really happy with these bags. They make traveling easier for us.

I bought this for my Britax Roundabout car seat, and even though it looked too small, it actually completely covered the car seat. We've only used it once, but it made it to and from gate check just fine. It could have been made with a better carrying handle, but it's doable. Since we wanted to gate check our car seat and stroller (Baby jogger City Classic single), we borrowed another one for that and with the wheels removed, it fit, too! No complaints from me... pretty happy with this cover!

I was concerned since a previous reviewer stated this product would not fit around a Britax Marathon car seat. According to Britax, the Marathon is the same dimensions as our Boulevard CS. I took a gamble and purchased it anyway. Our seat fit in this bag with room to spare. I assume even the larger Britax Advocate CS would fit this bag. Jeep may have increased the dimensions of this product since the previous review was written to accommodate Britax. Overall the bag is well made from thick water resistant material, reinforced handle, staggered/adjustable shoulder strap and even has a zippered side pocket. Great value for the money!

I bought this bag to store our car seat and base for a trip to Orlando. My first reaction when it arrived was pleasantly surprised about the material and construction. That said... It took a beating in this one trip, but better the bag than the car seat.

Pros:

-I liked the material and the stitching seems pretty solid.

-Roomy. I fit our infant car seat and the attachable base in this bag.

-Detachable Shoulder strap. Let's face it, car seats are awkward, the shoulder strap was really nice to go through the airport with. That said, I would have felt bad if my wife was travelling by herself as this only cuts down on the level of awkwardness- it can still be a beast to get around the airport.

-Convenient Pouch. There's a small zipper pouch to store things, I fit a small carrier in the the pouch while the car seat and base were in the bag. Also remember to put that shoulder strap in here (or in the bag itself) before handing over your bag!

-In addition to the shoulder strap there is a permanent handle which was also quite convenient.

-I feel the price is fair for the quality of this bag.

Reality Checks:

This thing is not made of steel. The airlines WILL beat the heck out of the bag. A round trip later and this bag already has a couple holes in it. Not at the seams mind you, right in the middle. I gate checked this bag both times, but from the holes and dirt, they were still hard on it. Again, better the bag than the seat. The holes aren't huge, and I imagine I should be able to get several more trips out of this bag. We are not frequent flyers so this bag will last us for some time. If you travel a lot with your baby, I would consider upgrading from this bag. For our needs it works fine.

This bag does just what it says: protects car seat during travel. Graco SafeSeat fits nicely. Took it on an international flight, and it came through without any snags or rips.

We bought this and have used it 5 times and it is still in GREAT condition. It's very roomy for an infant car seat that you could pack the base in it oo, although we have not tried. The strap works well but most importantly it is still all together in one piece after being manhandled by my husband's on various flights. We always gate check it but I could see it still holding up if you needed to check it as luggage. The zipper stays closed and I even throw extra jackets, burp cloths and food containers in it at the gate before we board. Great buy and worth the money!!

We bought this bag to protect our carseat while traveling in the airport. The first time we used it, it came back so worn it looked like we had used it for years. There was also a huge hole in the bottom. It is very awkward to carry. There are no wheels, and we couldn't figure out a good way to use the straps while making it semi-comfortable. We bought another cover that was double the price, but has worked much better. The price is good for this bag. It's better than having nothing for your carseat, but not great.

This bag held up traveling internationally. It completly covered our car seat (britax) with room to spare. I could never find a comfortable way to carry the bag with the shoulder strap, but slipped the handle over our suitcase handle. The shoulder strap has several points to attach it to on the bag, which is good, you can find the right one for you, I just never found one that worked for my shoulder. I would recommend this product. It costs much less than other bags and holds up just fine.
