Skip Hop Duo Deluxe : Why It Is Our Favorite Diaper Bag

Skip Hop Duo Deluxe. One of the criteria we had for a diaper bag is for it to have lots of compartments not only to store baby items but also mom/dad's personal items ie cell phone, sunglasses, daily planner, pager, ipod, etc. This sleek diaper bag has 11 pockets, there's 2 front pockets for easy access to the very essentials, dedicated pocket for your cell phone and a waterproofed zippered personal pocket. They even added contrasting lining to the pockets to help you navigate through your baby care "arsenal". If you're the type who likes things organized this Skip Hop diaper bag is just perfect! Heck, this diaper bag will even help you get organized even if you're not so much of a neat freak.

Another thing that stands out about the Skip Hop Duo Deluxe is the fact that not only could it be used as a shoulder bag but it could also function as a stroller bag. Thanks to its patented shuttle clips,a strap and fastening system, the Skip Skip Hop Duo can be easily attached to the handlebars of any stroller. This is very practical as diaper bags may be rather heavy to be carrying around once you factor in the things you'll be packing in there(Note: The Skip Hop Duo is very light by itself, which was another plus). If you're a shop-a-holic like my cousin and sister are, you'll definetely understand how useful this is.

We also wanted to get something that would not look awkward on either mom or dad but after 9 months of carrying the "load", it's only right for the man of the house to take over from here. So, a diaper bag that's feminine or one that's filled with cartoon characters was totally out of the question. We both agreed that the Skip Hop Duo Deluxe had a more "universal" design that is neither/nor and fits just about everyone. Through research we found out that the designers of Skip Hop diaper bags are known to make a brilliant job in combining form and function and the Duo Deluxe is attest to that.

After having gone through the many features of the bag, we also wanted to hear from parents who have actually owned the bag. Boy oh boy, we were completely taken by surprise! It has one of the best reviews from happy parents that I've ever seen on Amazon (Read the crazy reviews the Skip Hop Duo Deluxe is getting HERE). The only gripes that we found coming from parents were the sippy cup/bottle pocket isn't insulated and the padded changing pad which comes with the Skip Hop bag is a wee bit small.However, We were completely sold after reading all the other positive reviews. Highly Recommended!

The Skip Hop Duo Double Deluxe has all the features of the Skip Hop Duo Deluxe and more. This unique diaper bag is designed specially for twins and can be attached to a double side-by-side stroller, hence the name Duo DOUBLE. However, it's also perfect if you have multiple babies,an infant and a toddler perhaps, or if you just need the extra room to pack things for your special one.

You could fit just about everything in this roomy diaper bag! Skip Hop understands that the bigger space you have the more clutter-y your bags will be. The ever organized designers at Skip Hop have included over 16 spacious pockets in the Skip Hop Duo Deluxe. No, that was not a typo. There really are 16 pockets! There's 3 front pockets, 2 large rear pockets, 2 mesh side pockets, 7 large interior pockets and 3 mesh pockets. Oh, and there's an oversized interior zip pocket perfect for mom&dad's personal items too! (I can imagine the salesperson gasping for breathe in their sales pitch) What's surprising is, after all that, there's still plenty of room in the main compartment.

Just like the Skip Hop Duo, the Duo Double is made of poly-canvas which makes it easy to clean and water resistant.

The Skip Hop Via Messenger Diaper Bag is another diaper bag under the Skip Hop brand's umbrella that's worth mentioning. This over the shoulder diaper bag goes over the top when it comes to keeping your things organized. With over 18 pockets, the Via Messenger has the most number of pockets in the Skip Hop line if not the market! There are 7 zippered pockets, 4 bottle/sippy cup pockets (inside and out) and it even has an antimicrobial pocket to keep things free from germs.

Tired of having to carry a whole day's supply all around town? Give your shoulder a break! The trademark Skip Hop shuttle clips allows the bag to be attached to just about any stroller in the market. The cushioned shoulder pads can also be removed if you want a sleeker look to go with your stroller. Speaking of looks, the Skip Hop Via Messenger can be closed in different ways thanks to two hidden magnets in its flaps allowing further flexibility to its style.

If you prefer a backpack over an over the shoulder diaper bag, then you might want to take a look at the Skip Hop Via Backpack. Designed for comfort, this perfectly porpotioned diaper backpack has contoured and padded shoulder straps and breathable mesh to help keep you comfortable and cool all day long. If you're already familiar with Skip Hop diaper bags, you'd know that all of their bags comes with stroller clips that lets you hang the diaper bag on just about any stroller. Relief the shoulder off your back and hang the Skip Hop Via Backpack on your stroller.

The Via Backpack features an unique changing station that opens up like a book giving you easy access to all your diaper needs. This is certainly helpful especially during nappy emergencies, even more helpful with the cushioned changing pad, which comes included. Ever feel like you're digging through a "black hole" when you're searching for things in your bag? Not only that, you also have to put the bag down and search for it. This diaper bag backpack eliminates all that by having a zipper at the side giving you instant access to very end of your bag. If you're not the type to carry the weight on just one shoulder, then the Skip Hop Via Backpack may be the perfect option for you.
