We've been asked by Eastpak to find 10 Mumsnetters and their DCs to test their Wyoming backpack and their Flask totebag.

Here’s what Eastpak say “Our years of experience tell us that backpacks go through a lot of wear and tear when they’re in the hands of kids, and aren’t always treated that carefully, so we want you to put our backpacks through their paces and tell us how they hold up. And it’s not just about the kids – we want to see what you think about our totes designed for being out and about in the city. Take it every where you, and let us know how it feels, looks, and what other people think about it.”

This product test is open to UK Mumsnetters who have a child aged 14+
Testers will receive:

If selected, you will be sent the backpack and totebag to test by 21st August and asked to try it for two weeks. You and your child would need to test the bags and add feedback to a thread on Mumsnet. In order to keep the products, you would need to add your feedback by 11th September, so please only apply if you are able to do this.

If you’re interested in taking part please sign up here.

Thanks and good luck,
MNHQ

Ooooh, I could plan some days out especially to test the bags! Grin

I have two sons. one aged 14 and one aged 15. The youngest has just returned from a trip to the Scout World Jamboree. He is very sociable and loves outdoor activities. He always uses a back-pack and would be a great person to get involved in this trial. (The older boy is very image conscious, has joined a gym and likes to meet with friends "in town"!)

We've just emailed the selected testers :)

I was so hopeful too as ds has gone back to school already so could've given it a really good test.

LIZS · 14/08/2015 16:54

That'll be a no then Sad

Hi Mumsnet

It's 25th of August and we haven't received the bags to test. I am guessing it's due to all the shenanigans on here but wondered if they have been sent out?

elizaco · 25/08/2015 15:24

Hi, was about to ask the very same thing. We're delighted to be picked to review the bags but have yet to receive them - glad it's not just us!

Yes, looking for a feedback thread please.

Hi, I have received mine but no email or letter from anyone. They were in a parcel which my neighbours looked after til we got back from holiday early this week. My memory is rubbish so I couldn't think why we had been sent them. I phoned the number on the packing slip today and the mystery was solved. We'll use them over the weekend and feed back.
