I have a gray one and like it, but not sure I love it. It's kind of awkward to carry when it's full, especially when you are chasing a toddler. And I kind if wish it had a divider or another pocket or something. I totally love the look though!

I drove to the outlet last weekend JUST to get this bag and I ended up not getting it. It was not as spacious as I wanted, the straps were stiff/uncomfortable, and it just didn't seem all that easy to keep organized. I ended up going with the Skip Hop Chelsea City Chic bag, which seemed just as cute but a better use of a bag. Plus, even at the outlet, the bag was still $206, which was way more than I want to spend on something that will most likely get dirty hands, poop or pee on.
I have loved my Stevie Bag. It looks great and no one knows it is a diaper bag! I have the black which hides everything and is really easy to clean. I also got mine at an Outlet store- they usually have several color/pattern options at any given time.
I have it...like it don't love it. Once DD got older and I started to carry more stuff, it gets heavy like an awkward duffle bag. It falls off my shoulder alot and is difficult to carry and carry a toddler with.
I bought it at the outlet for around $150. i think I'd be more upset if I paid full price for this
Completely agree with hollyg's post... I bought it on sale for around $150, and I liked it as a purse/diaper bag combo when DD was younger. But, now that I have a toddler, it's a pain in the butt. The straps are constantly falling down, especially when you're trying to wear a winter coat! And keeping it in place while chasing a toddler is impossible. With another baby coming in May, I'm switching to the Ju Ju Be Be Right Back.
I really dislike this bag. I feel like it is big and bulky, yet doesn't hold as much as I'd like it to. When it is full it is very heavy and awkward to carry. The handles on mine fell apart in less than a year. It was fixed under warranty, but I had to pay for shipping and I was without a diaper bag for a couple of weeks. The shop that fixed it said this was a common problem with these bags. I also had a KS purse that did not hold up well, either. I don't think their customer service is all that great. When I lost the changing pad (seriously the best part of the whole bag!) I called to see if I could get a replacement and they informed me they don't sell them on their own. I feel like that should be an option with a $400 + bag. Quite disappointed in the bag as a whole. However, material is great as it's easy to wipe clean.
Just browsing here but thought I would chime in - I also liked it when DD was younger and find it to be a pain now. It is definitely awkward to carry with a toddler. The straps on mine also just broke, and I am just past the one year warranty so have to pay to get it fixed. I'd be pissed if I didn't get it in sale and won't be buying another! The straps started to wear very quickly and I should have sent it in earlier. Interesting that its not uncommon!
