Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Boat and Tote Large

Literally the best tote ever. Please always keep this colorway (natural on natural)

It's obvious to me that LL Bean's quality and customer service has slipped downhill over the past few years. But I needed another canvas Boat and Tote bag for an upcoming trip. I'm pleasantly surprised to see that today's bag appears to be sewn with the same materials, talent and enthusiasm as those from yesteryear. This is the same bag that Bill Gates uses to haul around the books he is reading. The canvas is heavy and stiff enough to hold the top of the bag open, and the handles wrap around underneath to support the load without ripping apart. I'm hoping that this is a product that Bean still does right.

Just the perfect size tote i needed to carry hand weights, water bottles and other items needed to my outside exercise group. Very durable. Wasn't sure of size needed so viewed options in the store.

Best tote out there period. We have a collection of sizes that have accompanied us on our adventures over the last 35+ years.

An essential. Well made. Classic vibes. Great go to gift for the traveler, the graduate, the new mom or just for fun!

Awesome. The bag is wonderful so sturdy and well made and exactly what I'd hoped for. The quality of this bag is so high that I'm sure it will last a lifetime.

Everyone loves it ! It's my signature gift for newborns.

This is such a well made, high quality bag! I have 3 of them in XL.

I love my new llbean bag. It is exactly what I needed. I absolutely love the long handle.

This is my 5th boat and tote. I love them! I will probably buy a few more down the road.

sturdy and roomy. perfect tote. a must have for so many situations.

Great quality! I love this bag. Very versatile and shipped fast!

Great quality. Perfect boat bag. What you see is what you get.

My third bag first small one. Use it for groceries at the grocery store instead of plastic. Sturdy and durable. Love it! Wish they would come in colors.

A big hit with the ladies in my apartment building. A useful gift and not likely to get mixed up with someone else's. I have many and use them for multiple purposes. Classics, for sure.

Sturdy and so practical. I purchase the totes as baby presents as there's always so much to pack for little ones! Monogrammed name of the new baby is the final touch! LLBean for the win!

I buy them each year for graduation gifts. The grads like them especially with handles and monogramed in their college colors.

Great replacement for conventional suitcase. Holds so much!

This tote is absolutely beautiful. The fabric is good quality and I purchased a medium size which is able to hold a good amount of items. I absolutely love the embroidered initials.

Such a great classic. I ordered for my preschooler's teacher. As a teacher myself, I know it will be appreciated!

Quality tote bag, great gifts for graduation, Father's Day, birthday, etc. the most long lasting, tough bag for travel.

Great extra-large size for dog supplies when zipping around Jackson, WY town. Non-zippered opening makes for easy access, and it's perfect gift to a friend or family member, for a new dog; especially when pups name is monogramed onto the bag. Love these extra-large totes for so many uses!!

Should have bought one of these a long time ago! I can throw everything in here: my purse, extra set of clothes & shoes, water bottles, etc. The perfect tote, super durable, and it stands up straight so you can see what's in there better when you're digging through it, unlike other totes I've had. Everyone should have one of these. I got the large size.

Great for gifts!! I love my bag and use it all the time!

Great construction! Replacing a 40 year old model!
