> 24 hourThis car seat carrier was a God send at the airport. It is much thicker than I expected and held up great. I used the backpack strap feature. The car seat was heavy, so the straps dug into my shoulders, but it was so much easier to use in order to get through the airport more efficiently. I highly recommend this product.

> 24 hourWe travel often and it survived about 5 trips before the handles ripped. This will fit Doona stroller/carseat.

> 24 hourWe flew from the Midwest to the West coast, and this worked fine for our Britax car seat. It is super durable and protected the car seat as expected. The bag itself also had no rips/snaps. I had to play with the straps a bit so that I could hold the car seat comfortably against my back, but it still was a little difficult to walk while carrying the bag on my back. I shifted the car seat multiple times, but couldnt figure out how to get it perfectly situated. The bag is roomy enough that I was able to throw in a pack of diapers and a 3-pack of wipes in the bag as well. Folding it up can be a little tricky and it takes some time, but I do like that I can fold it up into its own bag. The drawstings were a little tough to close, but I think its because it was super new. Maybe itll get easier with more use. Overall, Id recommend purchasing.

> 24 hourThis was great for my Doona, wanted it to stay clean and sanitary especially during this pandemic. Flew 4 times with it already and it’s held up well. It’s strong and large and I was able to fit a small backless booster seat in as well with the Doona. Packs up nice and compact with a convenient carrying strap I was able to hook and hang it right off the side of the Doona for easy walking thru the terminal.

> 24 hourLower price than others and made it thru 4 flights so far without a scuff. Only complaints I have are that the top flap is held on by velcro and there is nothing to help you hold the seat on top of a suitcase by attaching to the handle of the suitcase. I held the handle to wheel the two together around the airport and pulling on the shoulder straps to hold the seat tight to the suitcase was futile. The top flap kept opening and then the seat would just flop off my suitcase. It made me walk at a snails pace thru the airport in order to hold my sons hand with one hand the suitcase/car seat with the other. Could have used a simple strap to secure it to a suitcase.

> 24 hourDoesnt offer any padding. But keeps the carseat clean. Wearing it is clunky and so it using the drawstring closure. But it’s good for the price.

> 24 hourIt had holes after its first flight, but certainly protected our car seat. Not quite single use, but not durable for long. If you travel with a car seat often, I’d skip this one for something heavy duty

> 24 hourEvery once in a while you buy something and youre just astonished at how well it works, the simplicity, and value. This is one of those products. Note I purchased this on my own and have received nothing in exchange for this review. We were moving cross country and taking trips to house hunt, see the area, etc. We wanted out 3.5 year old to come with us and the last time I had to carry his car seat (Evenflo Tribute LX), despite being one of the lightest car seats on the market, was a giant pain in the ass. Decided to try the VolkGo and gate check his seat. This bag is (as far as the 4 times Ive had to use it) is very well made, its big enough to fit the Evenflo, it folds into itself into a nice small pouch, the shoulder straps are padded and comfortable, and it closes up nicely. You can see the other review photos that itll turn dad into a quasimodo hump on steroids. Just a note, you will sweat with this on your back. Its nylon or some other type of synthetic and you will get warm with this thing. Also, be aware that your back is huge, I mustve apologized to 20 different people after hitting them with the car seat. This is a great buy and does its job well.

> 24 hourIt’s ok. Went one trip to San Francisco with a diono car seat. It did the job but it’s already ripping from the bottom seams.

> 24 hourSo far so good, used on 1 domestic flight with a plane change for my Graco contender with plenty of room to spare. Total flight time was appx 8 hours. Glad I had the cover it, it was raining when they transferred the luggage between planes and at my final destination. I was able to wrap the car seat in bubble wrap to protect the edges and still had room in the bag. Held up well, well see on the way back! Only suggestion is to make a luggage tag, instead of having to write info on the provided white strip, and to have a zip closure. I ended up making a large luggage tag and attached it to the center strap since Ill probably let my sister use it as well. Even though I triple knotted the drawstring and tucked it inside, it either came undone or handlers opened it and did not retie properly but the flap did prevent it from fully opening. I also love that this bag has 3 handle options (1 in front, 1 on side and back pack straps), it makes handling and carrying it so much easier!! Will update if anything changes. Update 11/27/17: 2 more flights and it is still holding up well! On one flight, we added one of those pop-up infant chairs (think top half of an old school walker) and still had room to spare. Was still able to add some cushion with the bubble wrap. Currently using the bag to store the Graco car seat, pop up chair and a travel baby bath.
