Overview

Description

If you’re planning to check your car seat at the airline gate, this bag is a must. Bright red and easy to spot, this lightweight bag protects your car seat (infant or convertible) from dirt, moisture and germs.

It has a lockable drawstring closure and easily stuffs into the attached storage pouch. The large “Gate Check” ensures the attendants know exactly where it goes.

Note: This bag is compact and therefore doesn’t have any padding. If you’re looking for protection from rough-handling or are planning to check your car seat as luggage, we recommend a padded car seat travel bag.

Cheap for a reason, but not cheap enough
Holes in the bottom after the first use, not even worth $20.

Great idea, but not the right material
The idea of this bag is fantastic. It's big enough and can be carried easily. We also appreciated the space to label the bag. Unfortunately, the material is not strong enough to withstand being handled by as gate checked bag. In our case, the bag had holes after the first use. After 4 flights, we had to throw it away. Please use stronger material in the future!

A must

A must for traveling with kids! Parts of car seats get lost by airlines and car seats get covered with so much dirt when transporting it ! This bag is so amazing! It protects the car seat and I love the bright red cover to identify it easy!

Great for keeping a car seat clean
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This is a great bag for travelling with a car seat. It keeps the car seat clean when other bags do not. The airplane cargo hold is very dirty so bags and car seats can get very dirty. We had one before but the airport lost our car seat and the bag was covering the car seat.

Nice car seat bag for airport or storage
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I was sent this car seat bag free of charge for an honest review from influenster. It is a very useful car seat bag. I am using it for storing a spare car seat in our garage. If I were to ever need to fly this is handy because it has a name tag and place for an air tag so you can track where your car seat is. It is affordable so I would buy it even for the purpose of storing the seat. I also like that it has a sturdy handle making it easier to lug around.

Very handy

This product is great for travel. It fits my infant car seat well and with plenty of space. The material washes well and color is perfect to be noticeable.

This cover is only to keep your seat clean. It provides a small level of protection against being banged up by the airlines. The bag is large enough to hold infant seat with base attached to it. Definitely need a thicker cover if you want to keep your seat from being scratched and banged up.
