Twin Mom approves!, July 2, 2009
When the twins were born we used a diaper backpack that we got from Babies R us, but it didn't have enough sections to make everything that we needed accessible. This bag has enough compartments of varying sizes that it accomadates everything that I need for my twosome. Right now I have it configured for 2 bottles on one side, juice or water bottle refills on the other side pocket, diapers and first aid items in the 2nd compartment, books and my wallet etc in the first, toys in the biggest, and handy snacks in the smaller top part. The biggest compartment is big enough to put sand toys for both of them in and whatever else. Everything is conveniently placed!
I used to have a bag for work and a diaper bag for the kids, but now I just combine the two so I don't have to feel like a pack animal.
The only thing I would change is the changing pad. It is too small, so I just used one that we already had and exchanged it.
Excellent!

love this bag, June 8, 2009
Very smartly designed. Lots of pockets in all the right places and sizes. I like the smaller top pocket for quick access to small things like pacifier, snack trap... I also like the retro styling. We used to have a diaper dude. But not even a year went by and it started to fall apart. zipper pulls came off and inner lining ripped. It was also too small to have for long day trips or on the plane, as we flew quite a bit. Also the strap on the messenger style 'dude' always seemed to be the wrong length and the shoulder cushion twisted the wrong way, and when I was bending over to pick up baby it was always falling forward and getting in the way. I searched extensively for backpack-style bags because I liked having my hands free now that baby is more mobile, but didn't want just any back pack with a large inner compartment that I would lose the smaller things to the bottom of the bag only to spend time digging and unpacking to find these things. I found the DadGear backpack on ebags. THe DadGear backpack is well compartmentalized and large enough for our needs when we go on day trips, and even a weekend outing, but also has small pockets for quick and easy access to commonly and immediately needed things. The inner compartment is large enough for a few books / toys, change of clothes, bib, and a light jacket with room to spare. I usually put eating and diapering supplies in the smaller pockets. It's mostly comfortable: We did a lot of walking when we were in Europe recently and my upper back did get sore after a few days. I wish it had a chest strap to distribute the weight on my shoulders a little better. There is no waist / hip strap to distibute some of the weight to the hips, but I generally don't like that because that would make for more straps hanging off the bag to get caught on stuff (and my shoulders would still get sore anyway, but a chest strap would be useful.) I like the overall relatively streamlined design. The refillable diaper dispenser is a bit small and sometimes annoying to refill, but still sooo handy when you really need it. When we just go to the grocery store or run quick errands the DadGear back pack is a bit big and I usually just stuff a couple diapers and a ziploc of wipes in my purse and call it good.

Awesome Diaper Bag!!!!, January 19, 2010
Took this on our recent plane trip cross country with our 16 month old. It is great! The best part is the integrated wipes pocket that you can access from the front of the pack. That's awesome! It holds so much. We fit a full Costco wipes pack in the wipes pocket, 10 size 4 diapers in the top diaper pocket, 2 full sets of clothes, 2 sippy cups, a blanket, books, trucks, a magnadoodle, a portable tray, bibs, snacks, the whole kitchen sink!!! We use it as the sons overnight bag at his grandparent's house too. We can even fit his nebulizer in it. The stroller straps are great too. Our old bag didn't have those and always dragged behind the stroller. It is easily adjustable to fit both me (short) and my husband (tall). Stylish enough (not ugly) for both me and my husband. It's great that the zippers go all the way around too, so you don't feel like you're blindly digging down in the bag. This is one awesome bag and I wish I started out with this from the beginning.
