Looking for recommendations: Backpack/Tote diaper bag

Hi all!  I'm currently searching for a convertible diaper bag.  I'd like something that can be used as a tote bag/backpack.  I'm currently using a JJ Cole bag, and the straps are a little thin; I feel like they might break at any moment. Also, the bag just feels a little cramped.  I'm one of those people that probably carries too much in my diaper bag.  But what can I say, I like to be prepared!  Plus I'd like something that my husband wouldn't mind carrying as well.  

I've been searching and have stumbled upon a 2-in-1 bag from Timi & Leslie, a convertible bag from Vera Bradley, and the ever popular Petunia  Pickle bottom Boxy backpack.  I'm looking for feedback from any moms that have any of these particular bags, or any additional brands I haven't seen.  These bags look great in theory, but I want to know how they've worked out in the long run.  My current bag seemed great in the beginning, but ultimately it hasn't really worked out.  I'm not looking to spend a fortune, but I'm willing to pay a good price for a great bag.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated!  Thanks in advance!!

    I have a backpack diaper bag - LOVE it.  Made by Fisher Price and I found it at Walmart.  Super Cheap, 27.00 maybe!

    I had a PPB and it stinks! It's too hard to find anything! I ended using a Lululemon gym bag and will be using it again this time. It has tons of compartments to keep this unorganized mom organized :D

    I have a PPB and a Skip Hop Via Backpack.  The PPB is a nice bag but not that comfortable as a backpack.  I mostly use the shoulder strap when I use that one.  I love my Skip Hop Via Backpack.  Very roomy, is very comfortable to wear, and lots of compartments.
