Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Boat and Tote Large

I have 3 of these bags in different sizes and they all work so well for my needs. My latest is the small-sized one with the long handles and works perfectly as my summer purse. The black bottom helps hide the 'whatever' that gets on it. Even tho it's small, it holds everything I need and then some. I highly recommend this!

I love this bag!! So chic and fits so much. The monogram gives it a personal touch and I get compliments all the time

.. and can definitely see the appeal. Its sturdy. You don't have to baby it.. and it seriously keeps its shape. What more can you ask for? My days of obsessively buying bookstore tote bags are long over. I have found my tried and true. I may have even bought several with different monograms pertaining to me. Needless to say this is my forever tote. LL Bean Boat & Totes truly live up to the hype. PS - this is also my office bag. Yep. The 13" MacBook Pro fits nicely in my open-top tote bag! It sticks out a little but honestly I like the way it looks. Plus I get soooo many compliments on my bag.

Great tote for carrying heavy items - holds up well!

This bag comes in handy for carrying the many items I seem to collect. It is just the right size, looks good and helps me to stay organized. I always know where things are thanks to this handy bag!

It is exactly what I hoped it would be - a cute little everyday purse. Having my name on it makes it special.

Talk about a well-made product! This item is the premier of tote bags!

This reliable bag has carried me through many years. Actually it helped to sneak my lab puppy into my classroom. Countless surprise donuts for kids. Years of homework to be corrected. Bathing suits and towels for swimming fun with grandsons. Games and supplies for Tahoe. I wish the bag could talk.

Exactly as good as everyone says it is! Sturdy, big but not too big, and with the long handles its PERFECT. I use size large as my weekend bag, and I leave town every other weekend. It is perfect. I also take it to the farmers market and to stores and it hold up so well.

The best bag ever! Holds up over the rest of time and heavy wear and tear on our boat. Great gift- always monogram!

Classic and well made tote that I purchased to replace another that had been lost(I had that one for 25 years!) The monogram came out perfect.

The L L Bean Boat and Tote is the best you can buy, strong, great material, outperforms all other totes available. Customer Service is outstanding, a pleasure to deal with!

Bean's totes are the best - sturdy, attractive, and they last forever.

Love my new tote - same great bag as when I was a child.

Oh how I love this little tote! I have several medium totes that are used often and some for many years. This small tote is for taking my knitting prayer shawl to the weekly gathering along with just my wallet, phone, and knitting supplies. Perfect size. And whoever decided to make them in more colors surely got my vote!

This bag will stand alone making it easy to load & unload. The zipper works well.

Stands upright on its flat bottom. Bought to transport study, teaching, keyboard, floral arranging essentials. Wish the main canvas came in darker colors, rather than cream.

I received one of these in medium as a baby gift and we use it all the time, especially for travel. Just throw everything in there and you can see it all easily! Toys, clothes, diapers etc. I now send these to all my friends when they have a new baby. The monogram makes it extra special and it's something the child will be able to use (literally) forever. My parents have one that is over 40 years old. Also the basic shipping is WAY faster for in stock items with monogram than the other copy cat mail order brand. ;-)

Great sturdy travel bag, Top quality canvas perfect for carrying groceries, tools beach blankets.

Quality is what we've come to expect from Bean's boat totes. Stitching on monogram is well done. Looking forward to many years of use!

This is what I think of when I think "boat tote"; large, sturdy, and durable.

This is a replacement bag to the one that I had. It was monogrammed and delivered within days

Clean lines, modest in size, decisive in shape, great with jeans, easy to carry and rummage in but not so big as to make keys and glasses disappear.

My daughter & I have given these bags as baby gifts many times and years later have been thanked for their versatile use! I'm so glad LLBean brought back some of the colors they hadn't had in stock for awhile!

Perfect beach bag. Big enough for towels, hat, small cooler bag and everything else. Got mine monogrammed and I love it.
