I couldn’t be more excited about my Kalencom Urban Sling
The Urban Sling is from their “Dad’s Bags” group. These bags all come in masculine neutral or camouflage colors. They look more like a satchel or valise than a diaper bag, yet still provide all the function of a high end, designer diaper bag. Even my husband couldn’t disagree when he saw the smooth chocolate color and the wide adjustable shoulder strap.
What We Like Most
In spite of it being a “men’s” bag, I like it too. Either of us can use it anytime. The roomy interior lets us carry all sorts of things including a change of clothes, a jacket or sweater and toys. We can even fit a few mom or dad items in there. He likes the separate cell phone compartment. I like the insulated bottle compartment.
The removable diaper-changing pad makes those inevitable pit stops less worrisome. All we have to do it is roll it out, change the baby and with a quick wipe, its clean and ready to be stored for its next use. No more hunting for a sanitary place to change the baby because we’ve always got one with us.
Another feature we like about our Kalencom diaper bag is that its eco –friendly. All of their fabrics and materials are AZ-free which means they are safe for us and our baby to be around. That brings peace of mind to new parents like us.
Price Shopping
Kalencom diaper bags are, thankfully, middle of the road when it comes to price. Some other designer diaper bags can sell for close to $200. After countless hours shopping in stores and comparing designer bags online, I couldn’t find any features we would be lacking by buying a Kalencom diaper bag. The average price of most Kalencom models was about $80, a few higher, a few lower. I couldn’t justify the higher price of the other bags when this one had everything we needed.
Convincing Testimonials
Always a careful shopper, I check out what others have to say about a product before I spend my hard-earned money. Besides, my husband would give me all kinds of grief if the bag I bought was not up to his demanding standards. I was happy to read the mostly glowing reviews about the bags. Here’s some of what people had to say:
- “…still clean after 14 months of use.”
- “…roomy without being bulky.”
- “The adjustable strap is comfortable and doesn’t dig into my shoulder…”
- “…easy to clean. All you do is wipe it with a damp cloth…”
How could I not be impressed by such positive comments?
Improvements
It is true that nothing is perfect and this is true of my Urban Sling diaper bag too. If there were anything I could change about the bag, it would be the number of bottle holders and the lack of outside pockets or compartments. A second bottle holder would be handy when we’re out longer with the baby than just a couple of hours. Compartments on the outside would make it easier than having to open the main compartment and fish through the interior for things like a hat or a pacifier.
