Caboodle Black Spot Changing Bag Review


Caboodle Black Spot Changing Bag

A classy, girl-about-town look for a versatile bag and matching changing mat.
Couldn't find much wrong with it, really!
Features: Soft, leather-look handles or over-the-handle (for buggy) options, slick but comfortable matching changing mat included, lots of zip-up pockets and mesh pouches, small clear-plastic zip-up case for messy bits and pieces.
Price: £29.99
Contact: Caboodle Bags

The concept:
Slender and shaped to slip under your arm, this bag could easily be a stylish day bag, but inside are hidden the extras that make is useful for any parent on a nappy mission.

In action:
The dimensions of the bag are 40cm (length), 30cm (high) and 10cm (wide), yet you can fit everything you need into this bag. The handles to hang it from your buggy (make sure you don't over-balance your buggy, though) are detachable, which is useful as the main handles are soft and comfy to carry or to fit more snugly over your shoulder.
The mat slips easily into the bag and folds down quite well. It has a matching fabric on part of it, which is cream in colour, so make sure you're not changing your baby on a muddy field!
The shaped pockets work nicely as you can find small spaces for things which you don't want rattling around, and the plastic case for unpleasant grubby things is useful for those times when you can't get to a bin! However, it's so slim that sometimes it topples over when you put it down, unless it's loaded up with baby clothes. (Luckily the fitted pockets mean things aren't so likely to spill, though.)

The ThinkBaby verdict

A classy changing bag with useful extras and without a chi-chi price tag.
Layout and accessories: 4/5
Ease of cleaning: 3/5
Quality: 5/5
Value: 5/5
