9month after use, this bag is still in great shape. I stuff this bag so full every time I go to work since I also put my lunch in it, and I push it into all different places, I am definitely not gental with this bag, and this bag is still great. However, if you use spectra s2 like me and put a Medela cooler in the small compartment, the cooler fits really tight in there, and I have to squeeze the sides to get zipper to close every time. But the zipper is still working great after being abused for 9 month.

so I have used this bag for 3 month, still love it. I like the fact people don’t know it is a pumping bag, although I get comments asking why my bag is so big LOL. I really think if you push the 2 inside pickets aside, it is a very big decent diaper bag or you can use it for packing whatever purposes. It can hold lots of stuff.
The pattern on this bag looks cute on the website, but once I got bag itself, I was disappointed a little bit as it isn’t as cute as I thought would be, but this could be just my opinions. But the bag itself is well made, I appreciate the little details this bag provides. The two compartments in the bottom can fit my spectra s2 (in bigger compartment) and Mandela cooler (in small compartment) very well. I can definitely use it as a regular work bag after my pumping life ended, the two compartments can be my lunch compartments since they are insulated. I like the size of this bag, it is not as crazy big as other pumping bag, which I feel I probably wouldn’t use after pumping section ended because of the big size, this bag actually just looks like a regular tote bag. Will update after I start using it for work.
I decided to wait a bit to post a review, I wanted to use it for a while to see how I truly felt about it, and I love it! I wanted a little larger bag so I could put everything I need in it without having to pack two bags for work! Another reviewer was frustrated that it came unsnapped when using the long strap, however it clearly states it will do that, to keep it snapped you must use the shoulder straps. Which are large enough that that hasnt been a problem for me! I can easily fit everything I need for a normal work day, and so much more in days I need to take my pump and also pack it like a diaper bag. I haven't had to unsnapped it for the use of the full bag yet, but am excited for the option for when we will be traveling in July with a toddler and an infant! Great material, incredibly cute(unlike the black or brown baha offered by the pump companies!) super happy with this purchase! (:
I bought this bag because I needed a bigger bag than my jujube bff without spending a fortune. With two in diapers I needed space for snacks and toys and clothing and diapers..no to mention formula and bottles. The side pockets are intended for a pump and pump parts but I use one for toys and the other for snacks. It keeps everything separated and keeps potential mess contained. There is a thin pocket intended for a laptop or binder. I keep diapers there and a small picket for bibs and bows. There are smaller pockets iI use for formula and bottles. There is still lots of space left for extra outfits, wipes and a blanket. There are to thin outside pockets for mamas needs like pads or makeup and pens and booboo kits.
It does get heavy. Without backpack straps it is less comfortable than my jujube. But I have gotten a small purse for quick trips. This bag gets us out all day and organized very easily. I am so thankful I found this bag.
Edited 3-12-18. This company reached it to me quickly with AMAZING customer service and resolved the issue! I’m very impressed with the customer satisfaction component of this business. So I will update my review based on this! Thank you Sarah wells!
I really want to love this bag and I’m very disappointed in the end product. My first thought when opening it is the material is not what you would expect for a bag that is $100! It is very cheaply made. The color is faded and doesn’t resemble the photos. It’s almost like the material sat in the sunshine and faded from the vibrant looking color in the photos to a lighter shade. The stitching looks like I can literally pull it apart the seams. Which means that it won’t last very long. This makes me so sad!!! :( I am debating returning now or giving it a try for a week. I bought a similar bag at target for $30 and it’s better made than this bag, the only thing it doesn’t have are the side pockets for the pump, which is what I want In a pump bag. I’m just really disappointed!
This is the most beautiful bag! I love how roomy it is. It fits my pump, parts (I did buy the matching storage bag), pumping bra, a cover, other miscellaneous necessities, AND my Kiinde cooler! It saves me from having to carry more than one bag for all my pumping needs.

I’m so glad I made the decision to purchase my Sarah Wells bag. One of the bottom metal studs had broken off and even though it was a little thing it still bothered me that one of the studs was missing.
So I emailed the SW customer service reps, thinking like many companies regarding a warranty, I was either going to have to jump through hoops to get my bag replaced or something in the fine print would explain why what was damaged wasn’t actually covered. Within a day, a SW rep had emailed me saying yep no problem that they would be sending a replacement. I was so amazed with how easy the whole process was! The money I spent on my SW bag was so worth it!
Before SW, I was using my backpack from my college days for the longest time to store everything but it was a pain having to dig all my stuff out to pump, plus it was bulky, and tattered. Now with my SW bag, it has a place for everything; love love the big side compartments for my Spectra pump and pump parts. Little details like the attached key ring sewn into the pocket so I don’t have to dig through to find my car home keys.
No one even knows that it’s a pump bag so I plan on using it well after I’m done pumping.
Thank you so much!
I almost am 100% in love!!
My only issue is the lower pockets should be the same size (larger size)
I use a spectra pump and I also bought the cold gold cooler..
I put the pump in the larger side (won’t fit on the smaller side) and so the cooler goes on the smaller side... it’s a VERY tight fit which is a bit of a concern over time.
Otherwise I love everything else about it. The flower print is gorgeous!!
I got this bag as a Christmas gift from my husband. I wanted a bag that I could use since I was driving from Florida to Virginia quite often and I wanted to have something specific for all of my pumping items. This bag is pretty good on its organizational pockets and sections. I like how you can have a spot for everything so you don’t have to search for anything. What I don’t like is how small the bag is. I have the Spectra S1 breast pump and I don’t like that when I’m done pumping I have to turn the pump sideways to fit it in it’s compartment and remove the hoses because there’s not enough room to store it that way. It makes things hard for me when I’m driving and pumping that I need to either leave everything out for the next pumping session or stop and put everything away and stop to take everything out again for the next session. Also, the top compartment area is too small for me. I have a hands free pumping bra, small pumping bottles, 6 flanges (from Spectra) and they are bulky and they take up a lot of space which makes it hard to zip up the bag. The bag isn’t heavy when it’s empty but when you have everything in it, the bag is quite heavy and hard to carry when you need to carry other bags with you. I did take this bag with me to Japan and it held up really well except for the shoulder strap pad. The pad is removable by velcro and came off one too many times, so I just left it off.
I did also get the cooler and wet/dry bags too and I’ll post a review on them too.
This bag is perfect. They really thought of everything. It is well designed, made of durable and waterproof material, it's CUTE. It is one of my best purchases for baby out of $1000s of dollar of stuff.
There are plenty of compartments for all your gear. There is even room for wallets, a key clip, a spot for a laptop or paperwork. My Spectra S2 fits perfectly. There are even built in clips, so if you don't feel like using one of the compartments, you can fold and clip it back so the interior of the bag gains that space back. You can clip parts back to make the bag smaller if you need to. It's just perfect- I love it. I would also highly recommend the matching accessories (wet bag, thermal bag).
Great purchase! I was hesitant to buy because I was afraid the bag would be too large, but after attempting to use my diaper bag backpack as a combo diaper/pump bag resulted in me making multiple trips out to my car every morning to load everything up I decided to give it a try. So worth it! I can fit my spectra pump and cooler bag in the designated easy access compartments and still have room for my pump parts, hands free bra, burp clothes, snacks, lunch, wallet, and more. The mommy pocket is spacious as well. Note: I put my lunch in a non structured wet/dry bag to fit more easily, then pop it in the fridge at work. I can make it to my car with everything including baby in one trip now!
