I'm a little disappointed. I saw how cute the bag was, read "faux leather" somewhere in the description, and with the price, I thought it'd be this awesome quality. I'm studying to be a teacher and I'm currently in an internship program that is prior to student teaching. So, I really needed a tote that would fit my laptop and giant portfolio binder and other books and various items. It does hold all of that and the print it cute. However, I feel like I just paid $45 (included shipping) for a pretty fancy grocery/gift bag. It feels and looks exactly like a bag you would use as a reusable grocery bag. And the straps are very short and uncomfortable. I'm going to keep using it just because it will be functional, I'm sure, and I need it to carry all of my belongings to give a lesson tomorrow. However, I'm bummed out.

So I purchased this bag to make a care package for a friend when we found out she was diagnosed with cancer. I'm an oncology nurse as well and know that most patients like to have their own things with them to occupy themselves while getting treatment. I really wanted to love this bag but I just like it for it's practicality. First, is the awful odor when you first open up this bag. I've wiped it all down with disinfectant and am hoping with smell will go away before I get the rest of the items to pack in it. I know that some people don't like that it's plastic but I LOVE that it is. For someone who is in and out of hospitals and clinics, this is an important infection control plus. It's nice to know that you can just wipe off the bottom or sides with a clorox wipe and have a clean bag again. I didn't even realize it had zippers which is a plus as well because I was afraid some stuff would just slip out since it's plastic and slick. The bag also feels very sturdy for being plastic and that's a plus as well. The pattern is cute and I'm just hoping the smell goes away so I can feel good about sending it to someone who may potentially develop weird sense about smells. We shall see. For now, it's cute and I'm hoping it'll work out.

I rarely give reviews on items I purchase on Amazon but this bag is so fantastic I had to take the time to do it! I'm a teacher and use the bag to carry things back and forth to school. It stands up perfectly straight and opens wide (the zipper flaps fold in) to make getting things in and out really easy. The zipper flaps fold up and can zip closed whenever I'm worried about the bag possibly tipping over. The exterior pockets are a generous extra storage spot for pens, sticky notes, power cords, etc. The bag is made from waterproof, lightweight and strong material and seems extremely durable. I expect to use this bag for years!

I instantly loved the look of the scout bag from the picture and couldn't wait for it to arrive. When I opened the box I was a little skeptical of the material as it was a hard plastic. Now I live where the winters are bitter cold. The past month we have been lucky to make it above zero with temps that that have dipped to -30 and windchills to -40. I was worried the plastic wouldn't withstand those temps. I have used this bag everyday to carry by items to work and I love it! It is super durable and cleans ups with a damp cloth plus it is a fun stylish bag. I now have 2 scout bags and am sure I will be purchasing more in the future!

I'm a senior year nursing student and finally decided it was time to get myself a bag for clinical. I had always just used my backpack before but it wasn't very convenient. Especially with my preceptorship next semester and soon becoming an RN, it was time to look more professional and have a bag solely for this purpose. After some searching around for something nice looking and functional, I landed on this bag. The size is perfect. It's not massive but it's definitely big enough to fit my stethoscope case, drug guide, snacks, 32 oz water bottle, clipboard, an extra set of scrubs because you never know, and with room left over for more. I also love that the material of this bag allows me to wipe it down and disinfect it often. I've only used this bag twice so far but already had other nursing students compliment it!

Overpriced and poor quality zipper. Keeps coming open when I used it for one day. I put 16 oz water bottle in front pocket it kept sliding out. Great that it is waterproof but top doesnât zipper completely closed so I would never put electronics in here. And straps are a bit too short to keep on your shoulder comfortably. Itâs basically a thick reusable grocery bag with outside slip pockets and cute colors. I will be returning it.

This was a birthday gift for a granddaughter. She was very excited and planned immediately all her essentials would fit in for her clinicals in her nursing study. She has T1D and also found room for all her supplies for that. It seems a sturdy bag with lots of room. I had it shipped to her home (to be hidden by her mother until we had her party) and it came on time and was as described. Very pleased all round.
