Advice Needed: Skip Hop Saddlebag or Carry You?

nrod · Apr 6, 2008

Hi All!

Hoping you could help me in a new decision. I just got my new MacLaren Triumph, thanks to all of you who helped that decision

. And I was looking at ways to increase the storage for an upcoming trip. I like the idea of the saddlebags. Have any of you tried them? I'm looking at the Skip Hop Saddlebag or the Carry You Naples. I found the Naples for around $10 (of course the shipping was $12). So price-wise they are about even. I'd love any advice you can give. TIA.

I'm not familiar with the Carry You Naples, but I do have a Skip Hop Saddlebag. I have used it on a few occasions with both my Maclaren Triumph and Quinny Zapp. The sleeve on the side fits a sippy cup, and there is quite a bit of storage space inside.

I have used it for trips to the park mostly, when I just need a few things, wallet, travel wipes holder, a couple diapers, sunscreen, cell phone. On our recent plane trip, I used it to hold our snacks.

To attach, there are two velcro straps on the ends, which are perfect for the Triumph. There is also a third velcro strap in the middle, which is what I use for the Zapp. For our plane trip, a couple times I used the outer velcro straps to attach it to one side of my Skip Hop Spark diaper bag shoulder straps to help in getting on and off the plane.

I've been pretty happy with it so far.

I actually have this on my Techno

I like it because ds can put his drink in it and it does not matter what side the bag is on. That way I don't always have to give it to him.

Thanks for the info everyone. I looked at the Pescara but found such a good deal on the Naples that I thought that might work just as well. Here is a link to the Naples ...

I think I'm leaning towards the Skip Hop, but as I said that price on the Naples is hard to beat!
