Which one do you have? Give me the pros and cons. Gilt has them now and I like the tote.

I had the Weekender. It sucked. It was too big. The inner pockets were a pain. The plastic was too...stiff? They were also a really weird size. There wasn't a zipper and all the pockets were too heavy so the sides collapsed.
Haahhaha, man I'm negative.

@ms.janedoe: haha, you're honest. I like that!

I bought the weekender here. It's our car diaper bag because I didn't like carrying it. Yeah the plastic inside pockets were kind of stiff and were odd sizes. I do love how it opens wide when you unzip the sides so you can get to everything. The zippers were an issue... they never stayed up... hence again car diaper bag.
I love big bags and I must say it was even a little too big for me. We store it in the car with extra diapers, blankets, lots of extra clothes, extra wipes and extra changing mat. It works out great for us!
Pros
- Opens wide
- Lots of pocket
- very stylish!
- holds a ton of stuff... you have no idea.Cons
- zipper never stayed up (maybe just me)
- inside pockets weird size... wasn't sure what to do with them
- kind of big -
I have the danzo San Ysidro Hobo and I love it but can completely understand the negative comments
It's a big and heavy bag - BUT the shoulder strap is so comfortable that it's worth it to me. Others might be more lightweight but the shoulder strap isn't as comfy. Also, I wanted a shoulder strap...I don't like being limited to just arm handles
I like the pockets but they are super stiff. I don't mind though bc while I store a bunch of stuff in them I don't access the pockets a ton. I just like knowing that I have Chapstick, hair ties, antibacterial gel, band aids, sunscreen, lotion, etc but I'm not using that stuff all the time. And I like that it's in a separate compartment rather than buried at the bottom of my bag.
I was motivated to my mine for a cross country flight. I wanted a big bag where I could easily get to stuff. I didn't want to dig through my bag during the flight. The side zippers were so great for that. I don't use the side zippers all the time so mine still stay up great
I live in the suburbs and pretty much drive everywhere or use a stroller so I guess that's why it doesn't bother me how heavy it is. I've had mine for a year now and still love it. The material is super heavy duty so no fraying or damage. The hardware is really sturdy and nice too so it doesn't look like something is about to break

@ms.janedoe: lol great review!

I started with the hobo and now have the weekender! You can find my reviews on the blog!

I had the hobo and it was too big and awkward.

I have the San Ysidro too (thanks to HB)! I find the inside pockets sort of a pain too, I only store stuff in that I don't use a lot. The other thing that I don't like is my A&A swaddles get stuck onto the Velcro from the pocket labels if they peel off a bit. But I LOVE the colour (green) and the side zippers. It's big but I don't mind since I drive a lot or use the stroller.

I'm debating the San Ysidro vs. the Weekender. I'm expecting LO #2 in July and we're currently cloth diapering LO #1 who is 22 months and plan to do the same with #2. Any suggestions as to one over the other for use with two in cloth? Thanks!
