Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Everyday Lightweight Tote Large

Was going overseas fir 16 days and airline limited overhead to 8 kgs, about 17 pounds. My Bean carry on suitcase is 7 pounds without clothes so that was not going to work. I thought this bag might work but it was a smigeon too big in one of the measurements.

A lightweight version of the classic. I love this well made and durable bag.

I'm replacing an older heavy canvas bag with this lightweight, roomy bag. I love that I can just fold it up when not in use, it stores easily and doesn't take up much room.

I bought it for the color -- which was perfect - to use for needlepoint things.

I use this as a carry on for travel. I can put several changes of clothes, pair of shoes and TSA compliant toiletries, easily, see it all in one main compartment (I can't stand those carryons with several different compartments) AND zip it closed on top, outside pocket is also useful for quick grab item. My only wish is that carrying handles were broader or slightly cushioned, or a way to hook on a crossbody strap and a hook on inside for key access. Extremely durable and absolutely cannot beat the price for a carry on bag.

Great grocery bag and toddler stuff carry-all! Love that it's water and stain resistant.

Excellent bag. Well made. Great color. Just perfect.

I love, love, love this bag for everyday use! I still love leather and still buy "good" leather bags like Fossil, Coach and Frye, but I carry a lot in my bag on a daily basis, and I've found that my "good" bags are sometimes too heavy. Sometimes too heavy even before I put anything in them. So I decided to keep my "good" bags for "special" and carry my go-to LL Bean bag EVERY day. By the way, I get lots of compliments on it.Thank you LL Bean for making my life easier.

In New York City, where I live, bags are the staff of life. We walk everywhere and our lives are in our bags. I first bought a medium-sized red bag with navy handles and my initials (to keep an envious light-fingered type from swiping it), and I liked it so much, I bought a granite-grey bag with black handles and subtle black initials. It's the perfect size for small grocery shopping, and the material is lightweight but strong and waterproof. Although it is the same design as Bean's traditional canvas boat bag, the slightly shiny material makes it more sophisticated, and oddly enough, it's quite chic!

Very lightweight. Haven't used it yet but looks like it will hold a great deal of what I need to pack for a car trip to the beach. I purchased the XL. The navy blue is a beautiful color.

Great bag. I use it for the beach and the large is a perfect size.

Good size, but not too big. Washes well. Lots of storage; good zipper. Good colors. Recommend

Simple and useful. Lack of multiple compartments makes it much easier to find things and easier to empty sand after toting sandy beach items. One small zipper pocket on the inside sized for cell phone and wallet. One slightly larger open compartment on the outside for water bottle or similar. Embroidered name for personalization is worth it; especially if it's a gift.

Understated. Nicely made. Good size for my swim bag.

LOVE this bag! Had the same bag for a long time, and after years in the sun and heat, it had faded. Looked and was pleasantly surprised to see you still made it. Bought two different sizes!

Yes, this tote is super lightweight and will stand on its own. I purchased the soft spruce color which is a neutral for me. Being a soft material the medium holds plenty.

Perfect baby shower gift! I put all the gifts in this tote unwrapped. Mom loved unzipping the tote and finding all the gifts. She's going to use the tote for carrying all of Jakob's things wherever they go! Life made easy

These totes are great. I've had a medium for years, and it has stood up well. So recently when I needed additional totes in larger sizes, I bought large and extra large. The zipper closure keeps contents from falling out. The material flattens well for storage in between uses.

Absolutely love it! Great for boats as it folds and is very compact and easy to store.

I am a Caregiver and I use it for work I cart all my essentials that I need during the day to visit clients in their home.

I purchased this bag for our grandchildren to take to the pool, or a weekend overnight. The size worked out well. It also fit a beach towel just fine.

I have 2 two of these. They are great, one is large and the other is medium. I just purchased another medium in a navy blue. They are very useful and very well made.

I love these Everyday Lightweight Tote as they are very light to carry. I now have three.

We have both the medium and large of this tote. They're spacious and well-made, with zippers that work perfectly. The fabric is durable. We're about to buy another large. Definitely recommend.
