I started using this diaper bag backpack when my oldest was 2 years old and my twins were newborns. Thankfully, my oldest potty trained a few months after my twins were born. However, those first few months, I was carrying 3 sizes of diapers because my twins were different sizes. My oldest wore 2T-3T pull-ups, and my twins wore preemie and newborn sized diapers because they were born exactly 1 lb different in weight. Somehow, it was able to carry everything I needed comfortably. Once my oldest potty trained, my smaller twin caught up in size with my bigger twin, and I was able to only carry 1 size diaper in my bag. I was able to streamline my bag more, and it allowed me to carry less and still carry just what I needed. It held my portable diaper changing pad with diapers and wipes. It held spare clothes for all 3 of my kids. It held their food/snacks bibs, utensils, etc... depending on how long I was going to be out of the house. It also held an "ouch pouch" for those just in case times. I usually stored their drinks separately because I interchanged breastfeeding and pumping for my babies. I used the front pouch as my mommy pouch for my wallet and phone and stuff. This bag worked very well for me.
I love that it is a backpack and not a shoulder bag. The backpack allows me to feel more balanced while walking around, and I think was better for my back because I used to use a shoulder bag type of diaper bag with my oldest, so I could tell the difference. Btw, backpacks are better than should bags if you want to babywear one of your kids.
I also love that it comes with built in stroller clips that don't need to be purchased separately. That means one less thing to remember when going out with multiple kids.
My old bag had metal clips and zippers, which were pretty, but they made the bag heavy even when empty, so I like that this bag is lightweight.
There are a few separator compartments which come in handy when organizing the bag. Also, the light interior makes things easier to find. Btw, I have definitely filled my bag super full before (like I said before twin newborns and a toddler) and I have never had any problems with rips or tears. It has held up well for me.
We've used it for travelling/vacationing and taken it to multiple amusement parks, and I haven't needed to clean it much because it has never really gotten dirty, but it seems like it would be easy to clean if it did.
TLDR
Pros:
Backpack instead of shoulder bag
Lightweight
Built-in stroller clips
Easy to organize
Cleans easily
Cons:
These aren't really cons, but I just didn't use the included changing pad nor the included organizing pouches because I just didn't need them.
Peacock Color
By the way, I like the peacock blue color because it is a nice color. We have 3 girls, and it didn't want my husband to have to carry something too girly even though I know he wouldn't mind carrying around something girly because that kind of thing doesn't bother him.

Really well thought out bag
I had a diaper bag before this. It had a ton of pockets and went over my shoulder. After a while I hated that thing. Couldn't find anything because I kept forgetting which pocket I put stuff in. Once my baby became a toddler and #2 came along, it was a real pain to try to chase a toddler with a baby and an oversized shoulder bag. So I figured a mid-sized backpack might work. I didn't love the teal color at first, but it sure is easy to find, and the light colored interior makes it so much easier to find things. I love that there aren't a ton of pockets and I love the packing cubes. The drink pouches on the side are so great, especially if you have two toddlers you are trying to keep hydrated. And best of all? The stroller clasps. Sadly, one broke on our vacation but they replaced the whole bag and so far, so good.Someone had asked the question if their macbook pro would fit and so I took a picture but can't seem to figure out how to add it to the question, so I'll add it here. The 13" macbook pro would fit, but it's not padded like a laptop bag, so depending on the protective sleeve you used, it may be a tight fit.
