We used this travel bag to fly from Michigan to California. (They lost the car seat on the way home.) We suspect the car seat and bag and both doing well somewhere in New Jersey now. It made the car seat so easy to pull while I carried my back pack, my heavy carry on plus my daughters Thomas the Train suitcase. Great for the Britax Marathon car seat. It fit JUST RIGHT!

We took this on a couple of trips and then it broke. The zipper pulled away from the fabric, the nylon frayed so it got caught, then ripped. Now it’s useless because it can’t close. Also, it ONLY has backpack straps, so I guess I need to use it as a backpack because that’s the only option.

This bag has been very handy.
Love that its padded, to keep our $300 car seat safe.
The drawback is a crappy zipper.
We probably got our money’s worth though, since we have used it for about 10 trips.
I tried to get the zipper repaired, but they said it would cost $50.
I guess it’s time to buy a new bag.
I am looking for one with wheels AND padding.

I don’t usually write reviews for any products I buy, but I was so disappointed with this item that I wanted to share my experience.
I bought the travel bag for a recent trip to the UK. I was travelling alone with my 2 year-old, a stroller, and a regular bag. I chose this ‘backpack’ style bag over the pull-along style, figuring it would be easier to manage. Not so…once the car seat is inside the travel bag, it is incredibly uncomfortable and cumbersome to carry. I have done a lot of backpacking in the past where the weight is bearable because it is spread out across the hips and lower back. But with this item the weight is distributed across the upper back and shoulders, making it difficult and painful to carry for even a short distance. I ended up pushing the entire bag along in the stroller whilst my son walked. Both my husband and I were shocked at how uncomfortable it was (we are both average height and weight, and neither of us is physically weak). Maybe this product is okay if your car seat is very lightweight?? We bought it intending to use it to transport our car seat many times when we backpack Europe, but now realise that will just not be an option. I will be re-selling mine on ebay. I will never use it again and I would strongly advise anyone against buying this item.

This is a really well made product, very durable and it has kept our car seat damage free on flights so far.
