V VOLKGO Durable Car Seat Travel Bag - Ideal Gate Check Bag for Air Travel & Saving Money - for Safe & Secure Car Seat - Fits Car Seats, Infant Carriers & Booster

The hook for the straps are made of thin plastic. My carseat is not heavy, since is one that we use for traveling purposes. So, if you expect to carry a heavy/bulky carseat I wouldnt recommend using the backpack straps. I givingi it 3 stars because the material is good and the closure makes the difference.

I had realist expectations. They dont treat the car seat as a delicate item unless you are watching. The bag was dusty and had some slight rips on it as expected being stuffed under the plane. I have another trip coming up if it holds up Im good with the purchase.

It was our first time traveling on a plane with kids. My only drawback is that they don’t have wheels! I wish I would’ve known they made them with wheels before purchasing these. My husband and I walked into the airport like a bunch of pack mules with these on our backs. It was pretty difficult to carry along with our other luggage and children. They are durable and fold up into the pouch for storage which was good. We also added extra stuff in the bag too like pillows & lifejackets.

Ordered two of these for a recent trip. They definitely made traveling with two toddlers much easier. We even strapped a handbag to one of the car seats so we didn’t have to pay extra at the gate (Spirit fees are brutal lol). It’s worth it!

Update: The seller reached out on their own to resolve my issue, so I wanted to provide a bit more context about my original review: The carrier itself is well made and would have been great, if the strap didnt snap for our particular item. Car seats are heavy man Original review: I will never forgive these people....jk...it works but the strap broke immediately and I had to lug this crap through the airport twice.

Lower price than others and made it thru 4 flights so far without a scuff. Only complaints I have are that the top flap is held on by velcro and there is nothing to help you hold the seat on top of a suitcase by attaching to the handle of the suitcase. I held the handle to wheel the two together around the airport and pulling on the shoulder straps to hold the seat tight to the suitcase was futile. The top flap kept opening and then the seat would just flop off my suitcase. It made me walk at a snails pace thru the airport in order to hold my sons hand with one hand the suitcase/car seat with the other. Could have used a simple strap to secure it to a suitcase.

Perfect for air travel

Even with the constant bagging and un-bagging (TSA, arrival at the gate, disembarking the plane, etc.) this was hands-down the easiest way for us to transport our car seat through the airport. I had to run across SLC airport with this thing on my back and our stroller in my arms, and still made it to our connecting flight within our 10-minute window. I cant imagine how hectic our vacation would have been without it. We bought an extra seat for our toddler, so we brought the car seat with us on the flight and didnt check I, so I cant attest to how well it holds up through baggage handling. The straps all seem pretty durable, though the backpack straps did leave bruises on my shoulders until I re-adjusted the fit--make sure you do a trial run at home, friends! Re-folding it into the zipper pocket was tricky the first couple of times, but I could do it on my lap in an airline seat by the time of our return flight home (smooth, smooth, fold, fold, fold, tuck, tuck, roll roll roll, squash, zip, done). The carrying strap used when the bag is zipped into the pouch is long enough that a luggage tag attached to it can still stick out of the drawstring hole at the top when its fully unfolded and has a car seat inside.

Easy to carry and kept my car seat clean

This brand new item made a direct flight from Ohio to Florida without a tear. On the way back it had a small tear in it. Other than that, the bag tied up well and stayed closed on each flight. For the price, my 14-month-old grandsons car seat was easily identifiable, clean and in good condition.
