Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Boat and Tote Medium

You can't get better quality. This is made of Iron. I could carry my grandson in this. I carry a computer and heavy books to school. This bag with the long handles works great and I know it will not tear under the strain.

I now own the LLBean Boat and Tote bag in each of the three sizes. My latest one, the small is perfect for my exercise classes, holds my essentials, my water bottle and even the weights required for one of the classes. I use the large one for the pool and Beach, plenty of room for towels, etc. and the medium for water aerobics, where I only need a smaller towel and accessories.

This is my "go to" gift for newborns. Babies grow out of those precious little clothes, but parents are always in need of something to pack their clothes and toys in to go see Grandmother! Love to have the bags monogrammed. Nice colors to choose from.

This is the second time I have ordered these for my husband. The first time was years and years ago. He wears these daily and finally, the red pair wore out. So, time for a new pair!

Bought as a lake bag. Great quality and looks fantastic! Will last for many years

Ordered a medium canvas Boat Tote with monogram. When I received it the monogram was incorrect. I called customer service to make sure it wasn't my mistake, it wasn't. They were great! Sent me another one, expedited shipment at no charge to me. I love it! Perfect for taking my stuff to work.

I love these bags. I have a larger one that is over 20 years old. I am a knitter I bought this one for a bag for my sweater that I am working on when we go camping.

Fantastic quality as always. My go-to wedding gift for 30 years or more. Thank you, LLBean.

I have been using these bags in all sizes for more than 40 years and I still have my original although the handles have been repaired. I bought the medium size for my kids (30+ years ago) and now for my grandkids. They are great for overnights, heading to the beach or carrying stuff to daycare. They are study enough to carry more than 20 books when visiting the library and are the right size for little ones to be in charge of their own bag.

This has been my go-to wedding shower gift in XL because of its versatility, durability, and size. This bag is so well-built that it will last forever!

I have 3 of the large LLBean canvas totes -- love them! I love how they stand up open without flopping over. I wanted a smaller one to carry 'stuff' back and forth to work, i.e. papers, lunch items, etc. This was smaller than I thought it would be, but still the same quality of the big ones I have. Hopefully after using it a bit more, it will fit my needs.

I just ordered my first LL Bean tote and I'm over the moon impressed with the quality. I have never seen quality in a tote like this before. It is so heavy duty and I can't ever imagine it wearing out or tearing. I can't wait to use it at the beach this summer. I just received it in the mail this afternoon and I'm already obsessed. I think in going to pick up some more in different sizes and colours! These totes are incredibly simple and timeless and I am more than impressed with this ourchase. Thank you so much LL Bean. Your quality has set the bar very high!! I highly recommend this bag to anyone. You will not be dissapointed. All the positive reviews don't even come close to seeing the quality in real life for yourself. Amazing!

I have had 2 of these for years and hauling lots of heavy groceries is a breeze. So many cashiers have replied they loved it stands on it's own and how much can go into it without fear of breaking like flimsy reusable bags. I don't have to deal with tons of plastic bags which are bad for the environment.

This is a well made durable tote that looks good too. I chose the pink for myself and I love it!

A perfect carry-all for my summer reading, crafting, and visiting.

In preparation for a multi-day car trip I purchased two of these bags in the large size. I even got them embroidered for extra charm. There is a reason that these are an iconic L.L. Bean bag. They are so strong, well-made and durable. They were spacious enough to handle everything we needed for the dog trip and for our own collection of travel needs. They stood upright and stayed within reach while driving. I expect these to be part of our travel life for years and years to come.

The worker named Beth, did great workmanship with these bags. They will be enjoyed for a lifetime.

This one was a replacement for one that I carried daily back and forth to work for the last seven years. New one appears to be as sturdy as the old one. Nothing wrong with the old one except it was looking a bit soiled after I spilled stuff in it so I'll use it for things outside around the house.

I take the bus when I go grocery shopping, so it is good to have a big and strong tote bag to carry things in. I will also be able to use it for other things. I don't have to worry about the straps breaking.

I ordered this bag as a gift for my sister and had it monogrammed with the name her grandchildren call her. She was delighted with the size and quality of the bag. Excellent product!

Best Buy I ever had! I got my initial embroidered and drag my tote everywhere, the larger one is waiting for summer!

I love this bag! I use it as my diaper bag with the insert from Litzy ritzy that was made specifically for this bag and it is PERFECT! Honestly the best choice I made because I can easily convert this bag in to our picnic bag, our beach bag, our over night bag... the list goes on. BONUS is that I can fit ALL three of my kids stuff inside. I have two in diapers and the infant always needs a change of clothes and then lets not forget all of the wipes, creams, lotions, and sunscreen that have to be inside at all times. It is a lot and it all fits!

I bought four of these for grocery bags. WE LOVE them. They are very durable, easy to clean and we get so many compliments. I recommend the long handles. LLBean please don't stop making these!

My grandson and I vist the library weekly. We needed a bag that that could hold all the books he takes out. It works great and he loves that I had his name embroidered

I purchased this item for my friend's bridal shower. I was unable to make it so I mailed the item to her. She immediately called me once she received it and said it was a very thoughtful gift. I had this bag engraved with her new initials and I guess it was an instant gift winner.
