Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Zip Top Boat and Tote Large

LL Bean boat bags are a staple item and last for SO LONG! I bought this for my sister as a wedding gift and the monogram came out perfectly too.

Love the durability and size of the XL, Long, Boat and Tote. It's great for fitting all the pool gear and snacks for our family. Sure beats carrying many bags plus children! The long handles make it nice to swing over your shoulder - especially with the large size. The only upgraded feature I wish it had was an internal small pocket for keys/phone/wallet so they're easy to grab in transition.

Please please bring back the option of building your own tote - choosing body and accent colors, handle length, and size. In the past I ordered many for family members letting them personalize their bags. I really miss this option. I would order more if these options were available again.

Love this classic tote. The canvas is sturdy and the stitching is strong. Perfect for filling for a day at the beach or park. The personalization options are great, love the monogramming. I ordered the large tote with the long handles, to ensure it was easy to carry over the shoulder when full. The zipper close is helpful.

I've gifted these to our Nursery School teachers twice now from our parent rep group, both times to RAVE reviews. I didn't get to see them each in person this time, but I heard from one that she already had all her stuff loaded in to go home the same day she received it! I opt for the long handles with a zipper top for these kind of gifts.

I have had an ivory / light blue LL Bean tote for decades and it was time to get a new and different one, even though my old tote is still in fine condition. I love the longer navy blue handles and larger tote which I ordered this time. It's super cute and also utilitarian for my work and travels.

GREAT quality cotton! It's very sturdy & a roomy size! I love that it has a zipper! I will use it often!

This is the perfect bag for the boat or the beach! It can fit so much, I am super happy with my purchase and reccomend the bag to all of my friends!

I recently bought this as a tote for things from work. I want to have just one big bag instead of several small ones. It is so much more than that! The quality is outstanding. The durability excellent. I am going to order a couple of more as gifts!

Very durable tote that has the advantage of a zippered top, which helps contain items if/when tipped over. Well made, very reasonable price. Long straps an added plus.

How many stars can you give a Bean Bag, never enough, quality as you expect. You can count on having this bag for a longtime

Love giving these away as new baby gifts. They are functional and stylish.

I am so very pleased!! We have several locations to go to - cabin, boat, etc, so keeping things that come to our house organized is important. I bought 3 of these totes. They are perfect. I had them monogrammed and that was done exactly the way I had ordered it. They came really fast - I was expecting it to take weeks with the monogramming - it was just over a week!! The products are excellent and hold up under the usual rough handling on a boat and going to a cabin. Very pleased!!

I actually purchased one medium tote for work and one large (monogrammed) tote for play! Got both with zippers to keep my stuff IN the bag when I'm in the car, and I was pleasantly surprised that the zippers are gold-colored - beautiful! Great quality all the way around, vivid colors. Totes are as described. I have no doubt these will last for years! I plan on purchasing more as Christmas gifts.

I LOVE this bag! I got this bag to lug around toys and treats for our new puppy and it's been the best! The longer straps are amazing and the zipper top makes it perfect for bringing anywhere. Durable, high quality and cleans relatively easy.

Monogramming makes this bag really stand out!

Great quality and very well made! I got the extra large navy blue with long handles and monogrammed. I plan to use it as a pool bag for my 3 kids. It's massive!! Probably could fit all 3 kids in the tote lol. The fabric is super durable. Looks like a bag we will have forever! Thanks LL Bean for making quality merchandise:)

I love the tote but I'm very unhappy with the monogram it should Be aCs or ASC! Instead they did ACS, which is not my monogram!

I got the bag to serve as my filing cabinet during this coronavirus work-from-home situation. It's perfect, and will be my work carryall when things get back to normal. I have another of these totes that was my mother's, and has to be at least 30 years old. It's a little grungy and the handles have gone threadbare around the edges, but it's still used all the time for groceries. No doubt both bags will go to the next generation.

Gift recipient loved it. Durable, well constructed, colorful and stylish lettering. It was a real hit.

We love our Bean Bags in various sizes but are thrilled to have a new, longer version with the indispensable zip top. The Green/White color combination is elegant!

I love my tote! I ordered the medium and it's a perfect size for my laptop, water bottle and other items I carry around often. I prefer the long straps so I can easily carry it on my shoulder.

I've been buying this bag over and over again for 35yrs. I love the addition of the long handle it makes it easier to put on my shoulder and carry more at a time. I enjoy the embroidery too, I have several for different sports. Ski Gear, Biking Gear, Monogrammed for each of us

Perfect every time. This is my go to gift for any occasion. Wedding, baby, birthdays...monograming always beautiful. Everyone is so happy to open a tote!

This is my standard gift for graduates, a monogrammed bag!! The best. I have 2 myself!!
