Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Boat and Tote Large

I love this bag! I use it primarily for grocery shopping. It is extremely strong. This at times works against me because I tend to load it up with more things than I can carry. I'm thrilled with this new addition. I also have a large bag that I rave about as well.

I use mine to carry athletic gear to and from the gym. Love it. Has lasted years! It stands up on its own and is attractive and roomy -- all great features. The only thing I would add if I could would be an interior pocket for my cell phone, wallet and keys.

This is the best bag. I have had mine for over 30 years. Bought one for each great nephew and great niece. Parents like them. Very practical. Love the free monograms.

I purchased this for a lasting gift. After she read her name on the tote, she put it right up and on her shoulder. I'm very pleased I made a good decision to buy this product.

Ordered this tote to carry my "stuff" back and forth from work. It's big enough for my purse, lunch, umbrella, change of shoes and various odds and ends. And I have lots of room left over for books, a coat and anything else I may need. It's not too big though. It's very sturdy and I have no doubt it will last a long time. If I could go back in time, now that I've carried it for several weeks, I would opt for the longer handles. Maybe next time!

I can't get enough of these totes! I use them for everything. Sturdy. Nice looking. Timeless. Great gift too!

I love this tote. I carry project notebooks and these bags can handle the weight.

I gave this tote to a friend who lives in another state, as a gift in thanks for a huge favor. I picked a sweet color and had it personalized with her name. She loved it and said it was a nice surprise to have delivered directly to her. I couldn't be happier.

We have the B&T in every size and bring them everywhere. They are rugged so you do not have to worry about over packing them, and I love that they are stiff enough to stand up on their own, it makes loading and unloading much easier. These are defiantly going to be a forever staple in our familly.

I wanted it to carry around a large number of items. One problem I forgot was that if the total number of items is too large, it can be too heavy to really carry around comfortably.

Tote is well made and as described. Free monogram and 3 day free shipping. Very satisfied and would recommend .

While this is called a boat tote we use it in many different ways none of which involve a boat. Daughter rides every now and then so all her horse gear is now in one place, going to the beach-it fits all our towels, sunscreen, googles etc. Going to the snow-we put all our gloves, googles, hats etc. As a gardener I've even taken it to work filled with seeds, trowel, pruning shears, gloves, knee pads, etc. I love this product!!!

Bought this for my dog, to organize all his stuff and to use as his travel bag. I think he loves it and is looking forward to beach trips this summer.

It's a beautiful bag and very sturdy...a little stiff but I assume it will get softer with time. I purchased the long straps which work well and the embroidery is nice.

I ordered two of these, one each in a complimentary color to each of my vehicles. There they are ready for carrying pretty much anything: books, groceries, various purchases, etc. The bags have great capacity and are extremely well made and sewn, of very heavy material. I anticipate they will outlast me! Great product!!!

My wife loves it. She uses it for toting her information about her church group around. The only somewhat negative comment is that it would be useful to have the physical sizes of the totes on the website rather than just the relatives size.

I think I have every size in this tote. They are such versatile bags and I use them for so many things. Can never have enough of them! Great for the grocery store, on the boat, at the beach, work, overnight, etc. I think I order a new one every couple of years!

Very good product would recommend it anytime

I bought this for a relative for her birthday, and she uses it all the time. She likes it because it is large enough to fit several items brought to dinner parties and the like. Moreover, she enjoys the canvas material as it is waterproof and holds up well from being thrown in and out of her car.

Thank you for my beautiful tote. My other one lasted me 15 years and is still going strong, but I needed an update. The longer handles make it so easy to put on my shoulder and carry my work to and fro. Thank you for this lovely, quality tote and all the great items/clothing, etc. we have been blessed to have, for years.

I bought three. One for each daughter and my wife. All of them love it because it's sturdy, an excellent size and nicely monogrammed!! They couldn't be happier!! Thanks L. L. BEAN

I have two of these bags in different sizes. I needed a small one so I added this to my collection. These are the most durable bags I have ever owned.

I received the diaper bag insert as a Christmas gift as a friend so I decided to order this Boat and Tote as my diaper bag. It's exactly what I wanted. The diaper bag insert fits inside perfectly. I didn't want a bag that was too big but if you want extra room in the bag besides the diaper bag insert you'll want to size up.

I received this tote bag as a gift from my mom. I loved it so much I purchased this bag as a gift for my mom on her birthday. She loves it. Fabric is very durable and sturdy. I ended up ordering the long straps and wish the bag I received had the longer straps. It makes it easier to carry since bag is size large. Picked the Olive color and looks true to color online. Super cute. Had a single letter initial embroidered and it turned out great. Fast shipping. Highly recommend.

I use my tote for everything from carrying groceries to my lunch and shoes for work.
