J.L. Childress Gate Check Travel Bag & Backpack for Car Seats, Deluxe, Grey

Great for checking carseat with airline. I wish the drawstring at the top was a bit more secure/sturdy, so I would give it 4.5 stars. But good value for money, would recommend to a friend, gratefully for backpack straps to get from car to airport. The guide on what car seats fit it was super helpful. I have the Cosco Mightyfit 65 DX and it slid right into the bag. Don't do what I did the first time and lug this through the airport to gate check it...way too heavy carrying a car seat all around, even with the backpack straps. Just check it with your airline.

These work perfectly for their purpose, and are reasonably priced. They’re easy to fit various-sizes of car seats into, and provide sufficient protection. They’re durable, and the drawstring closures have stayed securely closed for us on several flights now. The ability to utilize either the comfortable shoulder straps or handle strap is very convenient. Glad to have these for our journeys with our littlest travelers.

We purchased this product for our sons first flight. We did the gate check and have no complaints! For reference, the car seat used was a standard rear facing car seat for infants and the bag held the car seat and base comfortably. I love the straps to carry on your back. I have no doubt that it will fit our convertible car seat when the time comes. If I had to nitpick, the only thing I wish were different is the closure drawstring. Overall, I would purchase again.

After the first of 2 flights we were surprised on how beat up it got. It had a few holes & tears but it really did protect our car seat. Definitely worth getting to keep your car seat or stroller safe but be prepared for it to get messed up a bit.

We've used other carseat gate check bags and this one was definitely the most durable. The material is thick and sturdy feeling. The padded straps were helpful, too. Our Britax Marathon seat and backless booster fit inside nicely. The bag has gone through 2 flights, being checked at the regular check-in (not at the gate), and doesn't look like it's been used at all.

This is the best carseat bag we've ever had! This was the 3rd bag we've owned and our favorite, hands down! The straps allow you to carry the bag like a backpack which is extremely helpful for freeing up hands. Definitely recommend!

This gate check bag truly helped me get everything and everyone on the plane in a quick, efficient manner! It was big enough to hold a Nuna Pipa infant seat and a Vista stroller seat so they didn’t get damaged attached to the stroller. I will use this many times to come! Great purchase!

I love this bag. I shipped my backpack in the bag and traveled to Europe. It made it with no damage on several stops. I folded it back in the small bag it came in. Reused it coming back and again wonderful. I am sure will make several more trips.

Durable material with multiple good straps to grab… our car seat is heavy so I wouldn’t want to carry with the backpack straps for any period of time but it was awesome for gate checking (we used a wagon to get the car seat through the airport) … this bag also allowed us to put our diapers in the car seat bag after going through security so we saved space in our other baggage too

Super practical. Perfectly fits our Maxi Cosi 30 car seat and base. Was very helpful for our trip to Los Angeles from Toronto. Comes with a built in "bag" to fold the actual car seat cover into. I only mentioned that its a 4 star for comfort because... really there's no comfort in wearing a car seat as a back pack. Otherwise its sturdy, easy to open and fold up / pack away.

Good. Used it to stick our car seat in at the gate of the plane. No damage was had. Definitely easier to carry the car seat in this bag

We used it only once, travelling overseas and the bag ripped open at the bottom.

It’s a heavy duty material that is way better than the plastic bags provided at the airport. However, the seats may not withstand any damage caused to the safety features by the airport staff throwing luggage around. A padded cover would better protect the car seat. Overall a decent product. However, I did not like the fact that the cover itself did not come with drawstrings. It was really annoying as we assumed it would be included but was surprised to find that it wasn’t at the airport. This meant that the bag couldn’t be fastened at the top and had to be left open during our transit. Disappointed about not seeing this anywhere in the description.
