Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpack for my son in kindergarten and hoped that it would last him for a few years. It didn't last even a few months. Both zippers broke within the first 3 months of school.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We love this backpack. I got my two little girls a pink one and purple one for Christmas, to coordinate with lunch boxes I purchased from Lillian Vernon as well. We have used these for EVERYTHING. They use it as an overnight bag when going to Grandma's, as a library bag, school bag, or even to carry sports equipment or stuff for dance class. We have also used them in the car to carry books and toys for long trips. Now that baby number three is on the way, I need a third one in a different color!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I purchased this backpack for my daughter for school. She is in second grade and does not have much in the way of books. The inside compartment is perfect for her lunch box and the few books and folders she does bring home. It is stylish and she loves the fact that her name is on the bag (emboidered and looks great). She told me she loves how comfortable it is to wear and the straps do not hurt her shoulders because they are wide. Some other comments stated that the handle at the top rips. We've had this bag for a few months and have not had any problems with it. Overall, I think this is a great product for it's price and would recommend it, although the inside compartment may be a bit too small for an older child with lots of books. As a matter of fact, another Mom called me to find out where I purchased the backpack because her daughter came home from school wanting one too!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
This bag was horrible! It only held 2 books and a pencil case at most. My daughter was not pleased with the color, the purple was darker than it looked. I would definetly not recomend this product to any friend.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I got this for my daughter for school, she drags it full of books on the floor and it still is in good shape,great purchase, glad i ordered it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I have now bought two of these for my son and both times the zippers broke! I will never order another one!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
the top hook broke after 4months of normal use. one of the zipper pulls also broke off. seems low quality
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We bought this for our son for Christmas. When we received it in the mail I was very happy with how it looked. It's very stylish and has plenty of pockets. Well, within 5 weeks the top strap (the little one at the very top)was separated from the backpack. I ordered him a replacement thinking it was just a fluke. Well, that is not the case! We have had the new one for maybe 1.5 weeks and that little strap is separated from the backpack again! I'm very disappointed!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Didn't last a season - under lightweight useage...
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
i purchased 3 of these for my kids. so far they love them and we have not had any problems. they are nice a roomy to hold their books, sweatshirts ect. then the other pocket they put their games, ipods, etc.. i also purchased the lunch boxes that fit nicely in the back pack or the clips on the side are great for attaching the lunch box on the outside. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!! thinking of getting one for myself - i carry enough junk for the kids - and i dont use a diaper bag so i think this would be a nice change with all the pockets and better looking than the usual diaper bag or carry on.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this in August for my son who is in kindergarten. The zipper was broken by October. He does not carry anything in his backpack except for a couple of folders. It is a shame, because he really loved it, but it didn't last at all.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son and I were both very excited to get this, now we are very unhappy with this backpack. He's in Kindergarden, didn't even last until Thanksgiving. The zipper broke on both compartments. He's using his old one from last year that cost me $5.00.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this for my daughter two months ago and the zipper is broken...very cheap. She was so excited to have a new backpack with her name on it and now we are both disappointed. Waste of money with this one!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
This backpack was perfect for my kindergartener. She loved the design and with her name across the front there is no confusion at the end of the day. There are enough pockets to store and seperate everything she needs and the inside is roomy enough for all her floders, books and lunchkit with room to spare. This was an excellent choice and I highly recommend it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Better than I expected. Very cute, seems sterdy, perfect for the price.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My daughter loves her new backpack. One of the hooks on the side does not work properly but not a problem. My daughter has so much in it that it does not need to be hooked anyway. In her words "It's cool".
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
great backpack!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
It's an excellent choice and good quality. I'll
buy it again.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
These packs are gender neutral and we own one for each person in our family. Ours are stocked with clothes, flashlights and food for emergencies. The little ones will be easily identifiable in a crowd with their matching personalized backpack. The little pockets are convenient.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Purchased for my "rugged" 6 year old son. It has held up so far this school year and looks the same as it did when I took it out of the box. May purchase one for daughter as well.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My daughter uses her backpack every day and takes it to her after school daycare as well. We have not had any problems with it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My kids are enjoying their backpacks.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son took this backpack to school on the first day of school and when he got home the zipper was BROKE! It can't be fixed it's so CHEAP!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Cute bag but handle began tearing first day of school and zipper broke second week. My son is in kindergarten so he only had 1 folder, 1 book and his lunch bag in it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
A good buy. A nice looking backpack, made even better with personalization. Lightweight, affordable.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My daughter and I loved the look of this back pack on-line and decided that this was "the one". Unfortunately, after 3 weeks of usage, the zipper broke and my daughter is now using her brothers spare.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I purchased this backpack for my daughter and she loves it. It is one of the most comfortable and spacious backpack on the market. I have no regrets with my purchase.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Five weeks into the school year and the top strap has already came off. The cheap backpack that we bought [...] made it the entire year without anything ripping out. My son is also only in 1st grade so it's not as if he's taking large books home. Mainly he carries a light sweatshirt and his paper folder with his school papers. Not too happy - I will be returning.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
It needs to be just a bit bigger. The personalization is the best selling feature.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I really liked the looks of this back pack when I ordered it for my 3rd garde daughter. She loved it too. My only complaint is that the stitching holding the strap on top, the one to hang it up or hold the back pack with one hand, came loose after only 2 weeks of school. She's in 3rd grade so I think it should have held up much longer, considering she only carries a few folders in it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My daughter uses the backpack for school. She likes that it has her name on it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Great backpack for my grade-schooler. Roomy, durable, and personalized. Many compartments. Very glad we ordered it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpack for my kindergartner to carry his lunch/books/materials. It is nice looking, durable, and perfect size for him. I bought a backpack for my daughter that costs twice as much, and is not nearly as good.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Great buy, high quality, lots of pockets (too many probably for my five-year old). Great value for the money.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son and I love this book bag! He was so excited when it arrived with his name on it. I am a teacher, so I didn't want a book bag that was too small, but I didn't want one that would swallow him up. This book bag worked out perfectly. It is just the right size for his folder, lunch box and a change of clothes. I'm not sure it would work for the older grades when they have to carry a lot of books, but it's just right for us. I'm hoping he will be able to carry it with him to kindergarten, and plan to buy one for my younger son when it's his turn for preschool.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I have no complaints so far...my son's only been using it for two weeks. He's in K, and I hope it was last him for a few years. I love the fabric, seems to be very durable, and the overall style w/the personalization is great.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My only complaint is that it is smaller than I thought it would be. The largest pocket is not large enough to hold a nornal size binder. We decided not to have a binder, and regular size folders do fit inside without trouble.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this for my son for school. It was not a week and it was already broken. [...] I had to go and buy a new back pack from the store so my son could take his books to school. This happen to both my son and my daughter so I will not buy anything else from Lillian Vernon. Not a happy customer.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought two of these backpacks for my two girls (both 8). I was not expecting such a well made product! They are made just a great as higher priced backpacks and the personalization is great! Right as school was starting I saw on the TV reports of the dangers of getting too large backpacks for kids (can hurt their backs). These backpacks fit my girls perfectly! I would completely recommend this to any parent!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I purchased 2 of these for my twins entering Kindergarten. Not only are they attractive in design, they are also very well made. I have never ordered from Lillian Vernon before because I was skeptical about the quality. This is not the case now - I will definitely order again and again!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Very cute and high quality

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpack for each of my twins. It has proved to be a great purchase with their names on each. There is plenty of room for their books, lunch and extras.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My daughter uses this for Pre-K...and I couldn't have found her a better backpack for her to use. It's the perfect size for her, I even tried it on...it's very comfy and trendy. I also like the fact that she is the only one in her class with it...and displays her name. I will definately purchase one for my other daughter who will start school next year.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpack for my 5 year old who just started kindergarten. So far, it seems to be a good backpack. He isn't using it to carry books or much at all yet. It looks very nice. The embroidery looks great.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought two of these. One has held up fine. The zipper stopped zipping on the other one after only one week. This was just a first grader's backpack so it wasn't getting a lot of use.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We gave this as a wedding gift to a ring bearer. It was the perfect size for young school aged children and had more than enough pockets for storage. This product exceeded my expectaitons. A+
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this bag to give as a gift. My friend Child loved it. It came in her favorite color and with her name on it was even better. She loved it. It is a great bag lots of room.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son absolutely loves the backpack! He just started pre-school and several mothers have came up to me and asked me where I got his backpack! They loved how my son's name was stiched on the backpack along with the size, color, and design of the overall backpack!!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
my son is 4, and he loves his "first ever backpack." it is very roomy and fits everything he needs for school.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I have to admit I was a little doubtful about the quality of this product because the price was so reasonable. To say the least I was pleasantly suprised when it arrived and my niece Abigail was thrilled with her "big girl" school pack. Keep up the good work Lillian Vernon!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I was very happy with the finished product. The bookbag is truly beautiful and well made sturdy and the letter are stitched on very nicely. very satisfied!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My only con is that the fabric strip that attaches to the zipper (zipper pull?) came off on the first tug. That part does seem cheap but otherwise we love the pack. My girls will get 2-3 years out of them easily and they love the colors. Good buy for the low price.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I ordered two of these for my 8 yr old nieces and they LOVED THEM! My 3 yr old nephew actually asked where his was?! They like having the various pockets to store things in and they aren't too heavy or uncomfortable for kids their age.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I purchased 3 of these backpacks in different colors. They are good backpacks and they are very durable, lightweight and attractive. I would recommend this product to a friend or anyone looking at this review.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought 2 of these, and unfortunately the main zipper broke on my son's after 7 days of school. Too bad since he loved the style. My daughter's is still OK.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My nephew LOVED his backpack. He's in Kinder so the size and shape was perfect. Not big and bulky at all!!!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpack for both my kindergartener and my 2nd grader and it's perfect for both of them. It has plenty of room but yet it's lightweight. There is plenty of room for everything they need! And they like it even better because it's personalized!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son loves his backpack and I do to....
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
This backpack is the perfect size for an elementary school-aged child.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We bought the backpack for our 1st grader and preschooler. It looks great and the kids love them! Very good buy.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
This backpack is ok. I was going to get one from [...] but it was twice as much so I decided to go with this. My son likes the monogramming and it looks nice. He just got it so we'll see how it holds up. The material just doesn't seem that sturdy. Also the backpack he had last year had a clip that buckled across the chest to evenly distribute the load and this one doesn't. It would also be nice if the lunch boxes they sold attatched to the outside of the backpack.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I borrowed it for a few days before school started and I didn't want to give it back. The zipper is a little flimsy but overall it has a lot of great compartments. Makes a great purse/diaper bag/book bag as long as you're not putting heavy stuff in that would put stress on the zipper. For the money a great bargain.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Love the product!!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
She will use the backpack for First Grade.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We haven't had it very long, but so far so good. We'll see at the end of the school year how it holds up.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
This was a great purchase! I bought one last year for my son. I bought another one for my other son. He loves it. At thier school they are required to have their name on the bags. This was perfect!! It holds up great.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpack for my niece since she is bearly going to Kindergareden and she loved it. It has a lot of pockets and even a pocket to put your Ipot or CD player. Exept its a little smaller than I expected.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Our kindergartener feels SO big with this backpack and loves the monograming. He adores that his special restime stuffed animal fits in the bungee compartment. Other retailers charged $10-15 more for lesser quality packs. It is a little large for a 5 year old, so we pack lightly but so far we have been very pleased with this backpack.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I bought this backpak for my grandson. I had his initialis embroidered and not his name, seemed safer.
He loves it, and it holds all he needs with room for more.
Great value at a great price.

Great backpack for school

Enjoying the bookbag. Need something bigger. Have to many books.

My son loves his backpack. The fact that it is personalized makes it his own. A great size and a great price!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
When my daughter took this backpack to her first day of jr. high, she said that everything was organized and smooth and there was no digging around her backpack trying to find things! She said three of her friends complimented her on it and she loved the beautiful puple color. She was really more confident to start jr. high because she felt much more organized with her bakcpack, and she loved how she could fit her first and last name on it! She loved it and doesn't wants to get a different color of the same one moving into eigth grade since she loved it so much last year! =]

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son is in a preschool program for children with autism. I love having his name on his backpack (and lunch box) so everyone knows for sure which one is his. Its a little big for him right now, but it seems to be good quality and he will grow! Lots of moms have asked me where I got this good looking and practical backpack!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Top strap tore at seam first week of school.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Great bag. The personalizaton was what prompted me to buy the bag, but I was more than pleasantly suprised by the quality.
Usually bags are too big for the K thru 3 kids, but this is perfect, and it holds regular size folders.
Plus by personalization your child can quickly identify their bag. We let him choose his name on the bag and he went with a movie character, all the kids think it is the coolest thing!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My son looked at A LOT of backpacks before deciding on this one. He loves his new backpack. So far it is great, but the bungee cord is WAY to long and hangs off the backpack and hits his legs.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
The decoration on the main compartment's zipper popped off as soon as we took it out of the box, but other than that the backpack is very durable and has survived my Kindergartener!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We bought this for our 6 year old son, intending to put it up until school starts; but he was so excited he wanted to use it for Summer Camp. He stuffs his little life jacket in there along with his towel, trunks, goggles, swim shoes and a change of clothes. It is very roomy, durable, and most of all affordable.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
the handle on my child backpack has already given out. I am very disappointed!!!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
great product
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
When i received this bookbag in the mail for my daughter who is entering 1st grade, i couldn't have asked for anything more! She absoulutely loves it and the fact that it has her name on it is even more of a plus. It's very light and made of some long-lasting materials. Thank-you Lillian Vernon for making such great products!! i have ordered from you for over a year now and continue to keep it going!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
We bought this for both sons' preschool/daycare gear. The bag is the perfect size for little kids, and the free personalization makes it a no-brainer!!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Not too many pockets or extras! JUST RIGHT!! My 2nd grader loves the colors, bungee cords and that her lunch box fits inside so she has her hands free. She says it is "cooool!"
We got her name placed on it and that was a bonus!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Probably would try a different bag but love the personalization
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
All three of my kids have this backpack and my two older kids have had theirs for three years. It is durable, attractive, and most importantly, affordable. I would highly recommend it. I was pleasantly surprised!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Pleased with the backpack. I bought one for my 5 year old whose attending kindergarten. It doesn't seem to be very durable and it will probably only last for one school year. But because of the cost I don't have a problem purchasing another one next year for the following school year. I would reccommend it.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
I got my son a backpack from Lands End last year, but this one is much better looking, roomier and cost about [$] less. This pack is probably best for elementary schoolers.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
Purchased this for my son and had his name put on it, he loved it! He is excited about his first day of kindergarten and that he can find his backpack and not have to worry about someone accidently taking his.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
My younger kids love their backpacks - they are roomy and after an entire year of use still look brand new. They are very durable as a first backpack

Comments about Lillian Vernon Bungee Backpack - Purple:
This backpack is full of roomy storage places and has comfy shoulder pads. It is a little big for my 4.5 year old. The quality is very good. I would recommend just putting your child's initial's vs. name on the backpack, don't give strangers the chance to id your child.

Worked great for my daughter who was in 2nd grade and didn't have a lot of books and things to carry. My son, who was in 5th, had a lot of books and materials and the straps broke after about 4-5 months. (He is also rough on things)
