Or any other Pacapods? Looking for stylish but functional changing bag and Pacapod is looking good so far!

I have the pacapod Phoenix and love it. I figured I would have it for at least a couple of years instead of a handbag so it's a bargain. Very useful changing pod- makes nappy changing quick and easy and attaches easily to pram. I would have liked the zip to the 'mums' compartment go be longer so it is easier to get stuff like purse and mobile in and out.

I have the bigger one here, was a present and didn't cost this much though!

I do like it, have never had a real changing bag before though so nothing to compare it too. I like the seperate changing 'pod' and various pockets, feels like really good quality too. I have yet to use the food pod as DD is breast fed and now is moving onto feed but tends to just have what I eat. In hindsight, now not sure how much that'll get used.

It is quite big, but as we are planning on trying for another fairly soon I wanted something that could hold both a toddler's stuff and a baby's. My only gripe is that the general storage section isn't huge.

After wisely deciding that designated nappy bags are yet another gimmick for impressionable new mums, I impulse bought Pocapod a week before giving birth.

I got it online without having seen one in RL, and went for the leather one (Coromandel in tan). Overall, I am pleased with it but cannot compare with any other nappy bags (or indeed using regular bags). Had I seen the real bag before buying, I would have got a textile version which is a third of the Coromandel's price: am not too keen on the colour of the leather, and the textile stap whilst practical looks cheap.

Love the way it clips on the handles.

Several pockets / compartments are good.

Like the idea of the pods, but we are using reusable nappies and there is no room for dirty nappies / wipes in the changing pod, so in addition I carry a Monkey Feed wetbag. As one of previous posters mentioned, the main section is not big, so if I take both pods and stuff the full wetbag in the main part of the bag, there is not much else I can put in there.

Typo - Monkey Feet wet bag.

I have this one - find it good especially the zip pockets. Plus I like the wipe clean fabric and bag clips. There is no way I would fork out for the leather ones - they weight a tonne for a start.

Emo - can you sling it around front like a messenger bag??

I have a leather changing bag and as nice as what it is, its too heavy before have even put anything in it!

It has a long (detatchable) strap but I haven't tried to wear it messenger style. It's more often than not attached to my pram.

The one I've got can be worn Messenger style, strap isn't hugely long though.
