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

I Bought A Large , Loved It So Much I Bought A Small For My Kayak And Now I'm Needing A Medium, I Bought One Several Years Ago And The Handle Finally Let Go

I bought these for myself and 3 friends and then personalized them with our initials. 2 of them included made by tags that I really liked! One was Edie- I'm afraid I lost the other one- but I felt a connection especially after watching the video of people making the bags here in the USA

Theses bags are great for everything!

I purchased this bag with extra long handled, which makes it very easy to carry over my shoulder. The interior is enormous, the bag is really sturdy and well made, and the zipper keeps everything securely inside. Note that because the bag is made of such thick and sturdy canvas, washing it will require industrial/laundromat washer and dryer. I recommend this bag without reservation.

Approximately 30 years ago, I purchased a medium boat and tote as a work bag. It went to work with me every day. As an Operating Room RN, I needed to bring "stuff" to work with me. The bag is still around, but shows its age as does its owner. I am now retired and the grandmother of four, so I bought myself a large tote and had it monogrammed with the name my grandkids call me, "Gma" It's great to bring to the movies with everything we need inside. No popcorn though, because I tell them all that its a law that you buy popcorn at the movies. All in all, the quality remains the same. Durable and functional.. I hope to have many years to put "stuff" in this one

Purchased many Bean tote bags, various sizes, over the years for myself and as gifts to family. Exceptional quality, strength, and durability. Used for everything between a and z. I.e., travel bags, tool bags, electronics.....Expect that my bags will last a lifetime. Some are already more than 40 years old and in great shape.

Love this bag! Versatile, heavy duty, holds a lot, stylish, I could go on and on.

We love these canvas totes! I bought this zippered one for a good friend. She loved it and loved that it had her name on it! These are really good, strong and last forever!

Love this bag! It is so handy and will carry a lot! The zipper is nice, especially for traveling. I have this tote and got one for a Christmas give. The recipient was very happy and wants pieces to match. Let me thank L. L. Bean for working with me on a return of the first tote I ordered. The monogram was wrong, due to my mistake. L. L. Bean let me return it and purchase another with the correct monogram. Thank you so much!!

I couldn't believe that it arrived 3 days after placing the order...and I even had it personalized!

I love this tote with the dark green contrast color. The medium size is perfect for my size as well as the fact that it has the zipper so it be closed up for privacy. Would recommend to family and friends. Would also purchase again.

I used for the gym and my laundry too. Perfect Tote Bag for me.

Gave this bag, which I had monogrammed, as a present. Well made and loved by the proud owner. She has carried it everyday since she got it.

The totes are fabulous!! Everyone loved receiving them for Christmas!! Love the zipper and long handle. They are so durable and makes carrying heavy items so much easier. I give it an excellent reating!!

This past Christmas I gave 3 zip top boat bags as presents. I stuffed the bags with other small gifts. The recipients were thrilled. For years they had admired my well-used boat bag.

This bag appears to be well made and durable. I ordered the long handles and they would work well for my purposes. I, however, assumed that the bag has interior pockets, which it does not. This was a desirable for me, so I returned it. I'm not downgrading my rating of the bag because of this, as it would serve others very well who do not need interior pockets.

Loved it . Looking forward to many years.

We have had literally dozens of these bags over many years; they never wear out (just get gross looking!). Funny thing, my wife ordered me the same bag for xmas, and we coincidentally had requested the same monogram (boat name) on the bag. However, LL Bean took it upon themselves to spell check my wife's order and changed the name of the boat! Turns out, played into why we named the boat what we did; so no issue. The XL bag is huge, if it doesn't fit all your stuff, then you are bringing too much with you.

I'm able to load this bag up six two liter bottles and the long handles allow you to put over your shoulder. Bought two for gifts so they could remember me for a long time!

My company gave these bags as gifts for the office staff, each monogrammed with their names. Arrived very quickly and the colors were rich & vibrant. Everyone was very pleased.

My wife used this to travel to Ethiopia as her carry on and it took everything we put in it that we thought we might need on the 13 hour flight, and to top it off it zipped closed. We have bought a 2nd one for use when we are at the beach for my mother-in-law

This is the perfect tote for many different uses. Very durable and should last many, many years!

Love you boat and totes, I personally have 4-5 canvas ones, and 3 nylon ones. I really like the nylon ones, but I wish that you'd make them in a broader variety of colors. I have one that has gold stripes and navy handles- my favorite. Could you please improve on the color choices?

I bought is as a gift for my love. He refers to it as "The Blue Bag" We took it on vacation and it was used for everything. Dog toys, towels, clothes, growlers and anything else. The bag stands on its own, everything in it can be seen at a glance, it is easy to carry with the heavy duty handles and the zipper is really high quality. The bag has already been washed and it came out just like new.

I like the quality and style of the bag but it is way too big for what I was looking for. I was looking for a bag to bring on my vacation to the beach. I ordered the large bag and it IS LARGE.
