  • I am a little obsessed with Jujube but I would recommend trying both on in person.

    Just my two cents: The BFF is great for one kiddo or a newborn and an older kid, but I struggled to get all my stuff in there when I had two under two.

    Another great option might be the Be Right Back. It is a more traditional backpack style. :)

  • I am not familiar with the juju be, but gave the PPB. I have a love hate relationship with it. Love the material, the one I have is plasticky and easy to keep clean. I love the flod out changing pad, great for public restrooms or when there are no changing tables! I hate to big pocket. You cannot find anything and if you use to pockets there is no room to put anything in the main space. I also like the flexibility of wearing it as a backpack or shoulder bag.

    I loved my PBB with DS and plan on using it again so that gets me vote but in all fairness I know absolutely nothing about jujube.

    Not gonna lie. Came in hoping this was a snarky name thread. Obviously I've never heard of either of these - the rock I live under is quite nice lol

    Can't vote one way or the other in terms of bags. However, if we're going for names for LO, Petunia Picklebottom has my vote.

  • I've heard good things about PPB but I have no experience. They are too expensive for me.
  • I had a PPB with DS and I could never find anything because of the lack of pockets. I preferred my coach diaper bag much more. Both were gifts, I would never have spent that much on a diaper bag.

  • Thanks for all the opinions ladies :)
  • I had the petunia for my dd and loved it till I started running lit of room and it ripped. I LOVE my juju!! Best bag ever
  • They look the same to me.  Why would anyone spend that much money on a Diaper bag?  I would be so afraid to spill on it...

    Part of the reason to spend the money is that the JuJuBe bags are all machine washable. :)

    You can beat the hell out of them and they last forever. Plus they have good resale value when you are done. There are a few different B/S/T groups on FB where you can get one second hand in near perfect condition for cheaper.
  • Love the PPB boxy bag! I bought mine from someone off a Facebook online garage sale for $40. I've seen them at resale stores and garage sales for a great deal. Could never pay the full retain of $185+.
  • Just wanted to update. I ended up going with the PPB boxy back pack and am in love! I've been using it with my 2 year old so far and there's tons of space ! I love that it holds it shape no matter how much I shove in there. Love the stroller straps and the built in change station. I used it this past weekend as an overnight bag for me and my daughter and there was more than enough room so i think it will be great once the new addition arrives :))
  • That was supposed to be a smiley face. I don't know what the heck showed up in it's place.. Haha
