    by Christina L - 09/2009

    I first bought some Chicobag about a year ago. I was sick of using plastic and wanted something durable yet very compact to keep attached to my purse or camera bag when I was out. These bags hold more than any plastic bag I have ever used. Shoppers around me are dumbfounded as I fill it with more and more and more. It's wonderful. Also, they are far stronger being made of fabric. Plus, I have gotten so many compliments on these it's amazing. Every time I unfold one, people smile.

    Best Reusable Bag that I ever use!

    by Marco C - 09/2009

    Best Reusable Bag that I ever use! Since using Chicobags, I have never forgotten to bring them whenever I go out. 2 Chicobags always come with me, one hanging on my keychain and one sitting pretty in my bag, ready to be used anytime needed. I am proud to say that I have avoided using hundreds of plastic bags that could have littered Taiwan land and water.

    by Susan D - 10/2009

    I purchased over a dozen of these as stocking stuffers for Christmas. The color selection is great. All the colors are rich and uniform. There is a color for everyone. The men will get the darker, more masculine colors and the girls will get the brighter colors. The pink is really cute! These unfold and restuff easily into their own attached pouch (no special folding needed). I think they will come in handy not just for shopping. They can be used as a tote, extra luggage in travel or camping. They are small enough to fit in a small purse. They can be left in a car; attatched to camping gear; clipped to a jacket or belt loop. They are as nice as I expected. Even purchased one for my stocking. Thanks.

    Good construction and nice for small trips to the store. The bags are much smaller than I had thought they would be. These are a little difficult to pack because of the way the handles and bag are one piece of fabric, with no give or stretch. Next purchase I make will be for canvas or cotton bags with regular strap handles.

    Terrific

    by Katherine O - 01/2010

    So compact, I can have one even in a small purse. Now I always have a bag with me! Folds up easily. I also use it as a lunch bag. I'm ordering more! The only caveat - the shoulder straps aren't that long so if you want one to comfortably go over your shoulder, I'd check out the Chicco one designed for that.

    Love them

    by Barbara G - 01/2010

    Ordered five of the colorful chico bags to encourage my family to stop using plastic bags. What I really like are the bright colors and the stowage bag is sewn to the inside of the shopping bag, so you don't worry about losing it and also provides a purchase for restuffing it which is very easy to do. I also love the wide straps in the shoulders so they don't cut into your shoulders when heavy and the carabiner so it can attach to a purse, backpack, etc. This is a great product at a reasonable price.

    Cute, but not the workhorse.

    by Bragita N - 12/2009

    I bought my boyfriend a ChicoBag last Christmas. It's had some heavy use - transporting shoes, groceries, books, lunches, etc. - and the stitching at the bottom is starting to pull out. I wouldn't expect to carry more than 25#, but I was hoping for a more durable product. This time I'm going with ACME bags.

    Great little bag!

    by Christine F. S - 12/2009

    I bought my first Chicobag in the grocery store in Mendocino, CA, but I loved it so much that I ordered 5 more from this site when I got back home. Great gifts, amazingly roomy, beautiful colors, and small enough to carry anywhere. Plus, I love the fact that the small bag to stuff it in is actually part of the construction. That way, I don't lose it...

    by Amanda W - 12/2009

    I confess, I used the low price on this little bag to "round out" my order so I could use a free shipping code--but it turned out to be a really great bag! Love the mini carabiner on the side and how easily you can shove the bag back into its attached pouch. Sometimes little bags are hard to fold up as small as they were when you first got them, but this one is easy to keep small. Thinking about buying more as stocking stuffers!

    Bought the bags to give as holiday gifts for the people in my office. I found the quality to be good and the size to be perfect for carrying a few things from the grocery store. The compacted size is also perfect for keeping in a purse. They were worth the price.
