Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I bought these bags for gifts for my baby shower hosts and they are excellent quality for the price. I shopped other places and found them to be much more expensive and cost extra for monogramming. These are very inexpensive, quality bags with free monogramming! Good deal Lillian Vernon!!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I bought this product as a gift for my bridesmaids and I am going to be filling it with lots of goodies. There are a lot of totes out there but most are cheaply made. This one however is of great quality. I also wanted a tote with a zipper on top and this one is great. I bought it in pink and brown. I have to say though, it is much bigger than I expected. In the picture it looks much smaller. But it is great for the beach or traveling. I am very happy with my purchase!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I gave these totes to the girls that were in my wedding. They all loved them! They are much bigger than I thought they would be. They worked great for the wedding day so the girls could put their things in them and keep their items separated. I know that a few of them have used them since as carry on bags for flights and use them for baby bags as well. Great Product!

Attractive Design

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I loved this bag when I first got it. ( I purchased the turquoise color bag) Then one day I noticed that my daughters beach coverup and hat were stained blue after a day at the pool! Tried washing them, but they were ruined! I still use it, but I do not put anything wet inside of it! Too bad the color runs because it would make a great gift!!!

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I am a teacher, and I use this bag to transport my teaching materials and paperwork to and from school. I have had problems in the past with bags being too small or not durable enough to withstand the weight of my materials. This bag is the perfect size for what I need, and I appreciate the front pocket for smaller items that would get "lost" inside the big interior. The straps are very thick and sturdy. If you are interested in this bag, the lunch tote makes a nice addition as well.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I had never seen this bag in black before I took a chance & bought it personalized as a gift. I think it turned out better than I thought both in looks & durability. I'm getting another one for myself as it'll be a perfect on-the-go bag with my three small children.

The bag got wet in the rain and the beautiful blue and white bled together. Meant as a beach bag; obviously can't be used with anything wet.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I bought everyone in my weddnig party this bag with thier own Monogram. When I took the bag on my honeymoon about a tablespoon of my water leaked out of the bottle. The color instantly bled onto my hands, my clothing, and any surface the bag touched. The color will not come out of my clothes and it took over a day for it to wash off my hands completely. I washed it in cold water 3 times and it still bleeds color, also bled all over the white handles and monogram. Not to mention it stained my washer, dryer and basement floor where it dripped. I love the bag but would not recommend it until the product is tested and the crocking issue is fixed.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

Yes, I like the bag. However, the color I ordered was red and I got instead a berry colored bag. Needless to say, I am disappointed since the bag color does not have the punch that I was anticipating.

Bought these bags in the red and blue colors. Children used as lake/swimming bag. Once the bag got wet, the colors ran on to everything. Do not buy the bags with any color.

 
Great Work Bag
By LynnVerified Reviewer from Astoria, NY on 7/10/2007

Durable, Folds flat, Lightweight, Spacious
Cons:
Attracts dirt easily
Best Uses:
Additional Travel Bag, Beach bag, Work Bag
Describe Yourself:
Bargain Hunter, Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

As a traveling therapist, this has been a great work bag. It is very spacious and lightweight that I could put so much without adding pressure on my shoulders and back. On some occasions, I find it useful to use this as a beach bag or as an additional bag for traveling for those souvenirs you want to take home. However, it does get dirty easily but can get cleaned with handwash. Despite this, I purchased a couple to give as gifts to my bridal party and got praises for giving gifts that are useful and practical.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

I bought four of these for my daughter's teachers and had them monogrammed. I thought they would be good for carrying books at school. They are much bigger than I thought, almost like an overnight bag. They are good quality and the monogram came out nice. [...]. I would definitely purchase these again, just pay attention to the dimensions.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Cotton Canvas "Boat" Tote Bags:

Is such a great product that I own two bags and recently got two to give as gifts.
The only thing I did not like too much was the washing part... the colors in the handle bleed, but you can hand wash them and they are good to go again.
