Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Boat and Tote Large

I have 4 of these bags and one that i purchased years ago with pockets on the outside which i organized large items like hairbrushes, hair spray and more. Miss that one. I purchased over time for each family and for their dogs with their names. KEEP IT GOING. EXCELLENT QUALITY AND HAVE HAD SOME FOR OVER 20 YEARS.

Purchased to replace cheap china made shopping bags. Have gotten quite a few comments from cashiers, & baggers how nice they are. Remember these bags from years ago. Boats used to have ice boxes. These tough canvas bags were used to haul the ice blocks to boat. One thing for sure never have to purchase another set, these will last for many years! Work great hauling my groceries from car to kitchen. Can haul a lot of items in one trip!

This is just my go-to bag. It is a great value and always works hard in every situation.

Great basic. I take it everywhere, to my job, when I travel, when I get my groceries or when I go to the beach. It is a great purchase. But please bring back the green one with leather handles and the coral one! :(

Very nice bag but no longer plan to do business with L.L. Bean for its failure to stand by a product I purchased years ago. Being a teacher, I of course wrote a letter of complaint, sent by snail mail. Not even the courtesy of a response. Things have changed.

Excellent tote as usual

These are the best totes for everything. I have bought 6 of them for family and friends and myself. They are very strong and are a great value. They make super gifts and I have them monogrammed. Will buy many more . Richard, Delray Beach Florida.

We purchased 3 tote bags as client gifts and we are so pleased (as are our clients!). Great product and I know our clients will use them for years to come. Thank you!

My whole family uses this bag. I've had mine for 6+ years and it is still in great condition. I recently got one for my dog and it is perfect for all of her travels. We use it for everything. Definitely worth the purchase!

I purchased a boat and tote 15-years-ago, which we still use to this day. I recently purchased another one, and was happy to see they are the same high quality.

Great tote to store items. Easy to travel with. I have used it for vacation with clothes, as a beach bag, and grocery bag. Excellent quality! Highly recommend.

This was the only canvas tote I found that worked to carry my 15 pound weighted blanket from room to room as needed. Stays open, perfect size, nice looking.

This tote has so much space and is durable and rugged! Love it!

No one can rival these totes! They are the most durable bags ever made, last forever, very washable. Great for boat, beach, groceries, and overnights!

I bought this bag for a college bound graduate, handles and monogram in his selected college colors. He was thrilled. But moreso because I had bought his older brother the same bag in his college colors. Older brother assured younger brother that he'd enjoy his bag very much. It transports dirty laundry from dorm to home very well!

I bought this tote for my daughter who wanted a bag large enough for the whole family's beach towels and other needs. This is perfect! When not used for that, my grandson loves to hide in it!

We bought this tote for a heavy, valuable piece of electronics that we transport frequently- the protective box is way too cumbersome. It stands up wherever we put it, the handles stay upright too, ready to grab and go. The tough canvas is perfect protection & now all the support cables are collected in one neat package. Ideal for our purpose!

I love these bags. They are sturdy and stylish. I have a medium and bought a large this time. It would be a great gift for almost everyone on your list. thanks

Durable, customizable, my favorite gift to buy for weddings!

I was very impressed with the quality of my boat & tote. Mine was handcrafted in Brunswick, Maine by Marilyn. She did a fantastic job!

Bought 5 of them to make our move from one city to another. Along with wardrobe boxes and a few medium ones we were able to move our goods from a 1600 square foot home. Had no idea when I bought them what a muscle, sweat, and time saver these would be. A life long user and appreciator of boat totes Use them daily to tote things from car to house etc. I have physical challenges that make these boat totes SO necessary to manage every day tasks. Thank you L L Bean for bringing such a great and sturdy product all those years ago.

Boat and Tote Medium is more than large enough to accommodate daily inventory of STUFF. Material is sturdy and flawless - wears like iron yet surprisingly soft to the touch. Washable so nothing icky builds up in the bottom of the bag. Strap is perfect length - not too long and not too short - still room for STUFF to stick out of the top. Great product!!!

The picture shows one Boat and Tote 35+ years old, one new one. Guess which is which?! The older one has served as diaper bag, picnic sack, traveling bag, utility bag, and most recently grocery bag, and still comfortably holds more than any other bag we've used. My husband wanted another for overflow, because no other reusable bag we've tried has the ease of packing and carrying capacity of this one.

Sturdy and colorful. Perfect for grocery shopping.

As always, great quality, service and nice monogramming
