Customer Reviews Vera Bradley Cotton Utility Large Backpack

The pockets make this very functional for my type of organization and the color just makes it stand out!! Absolutely in love!

Love this backpack. I use a backpack for lots of things. I take it to work and on trips. It's got practical pockets and fits all my items.

So pretty, looks even better in person!

Perfect for my middle school daughter. Lots of room and pockets.

It was a gift for a h.s graduate & she absolutely loved it. What I liked the most was all the convenient compartments, she likes organization. Overall very cute !!!

It was what I expected.

Love my bag!!!

this is the nicest backpack i have ever had , so roomy and pretty

Great travel bag! Roomy and lots of pockets for organization

If you want a stylish and practical backpack this is it.

Bought this backpack to use as a diaper bag. My husband and I wanted something unisex without the crazy price tag. This backpack is super spacious and has plenty of pockets for little items! It also doesn't weigh down by back and cause my back to hurt like my previous backpack did. I am very pleased with this style and purchase!!

Love the pockets on the outside. Love the half zipper pocket for the technology. Love the feminine look as well as the softness of the material. Love the space on the inside. I visit my children and grandchildren often and this bag serves well as a Grandma diaper/travel bag. I use it when it is just me and then I swap it out for stuff the grandbabies need and I am good to go. Very versatile and pretty. I really like that it is just pretty and that makes me smile

I love how many pockets there are on the bag, it allows me to compartmentalize everything which makes it easier to find. I also love the two pockets on the side for different beverages (Coffee/water). The material is nice and well made. It also provides enough room in the center for my lunch pack and a section in the back to keep papers/things I don't want bent. I work as a nurse and its so hard to find a bag that you love for work/travel. I got terrible shoulder pain from over the shoulder bags in the past so a backpack was a perfect compromise! I can't think of one thing I would fix!

Overall, super happy with this purchase. Does exactly what I need it to! The material does collect lint and gets a little dirty. But I've gotten lots of compliments on it so far!

This backpack has a ton of pockets! The main compartment is pretty large, but not for high school or college books. The straps are VERY comfortable. Great for taking essentials on a day trip or outing.

My 12 yr old daughter picked this one out, and she is a completely happy! She hopes this will last her her till she graduates high school

Positives: Incredibly comfortable, LOVE the front pockets, Beautiful style and layout, EXTREMELY spacious, Sturdy, and Extra soft materials. Very stylish yet super functional! I paired it up with the Grand Vanity Case and put my medical supplies inside and they all fit within the backpack with extra space to spare. Negatives: The Zipper pulls are very sharp where the stitching is (It gave me a minor cut). There are some loose strings but those aren't an issues at all and I snipped them all off with no issue. Final: At the end of the day this is the BEST backpack that I've ever owned. If you want a spacious backpack without having to sacrifice comfort and style pick this one! I am still amazed that the whole Grand Vanity Case fits INSIDE of this bag with significant leftover space.

Backpack itself is fine, but pet hair sticks to it like crazy

I absolutely loooove this style and all the pockets the only thing I wish was different is the material it attracts sooo much lint . I wish Vera would do this same style nuts in a different fabric ..

I love the backpack for its practicality in design of pockets and compartments. However, the material of the backpack is less ideal. Lint and dog hair stick on it easy and very difficult to remove. I have to use lint roller to clean it every morning to keep the dog hair off. Also it was not water proof. Water easily absorbed into the fabric. Have to leave it dry for a day after caught in the rain.

The bag is super cute with a solid color outer-design and a poppin floral pattern on the inside. However, the bag is impossible to keep clean as it attracts all forms of dust, lint, dirt etc. It is very absorbent. I had previously been using a standard backpack and the fabric and design were much better. I would not purchase again or recommend to anyone looking for a daily use bag.

Love the backpack but it seems to me that someone could have put it in a plastic bag to keep it from getting dirty. I washed it and hope it didn't mess it up. Too bad no care was taken.

I would have rated it better however, the black fabric collects every piece of hair and fuzz around. That's the one thing that ruins it for me.

Holds everything

The color is not what I expected. Also it is quite heavy. Disappointed
