JL Childress Gate Check Bag for Car Seats for Newborn and Above (Red)

I recently purchased this red car seat travel bag and I’m really impressed! The bright red color made it incredibly easy to spot on the luggage belt at the airport — It’s also fairly sturdy; it handled the rough treatment of airport travel without any rips or damage. It packs really small after to carry around when not in use. The material feels thick and durable, definitely good quality for the price. Overall, it’s great value for money and my car seat was well protected from dirt and scratches. Highly recommend!

After reading some mixed reviews I thought I would get it. It’s cheap and I fairly confident it would do the job. We have a bugaboo bee 5 and the nuna car seat. I was surprised at how big the bag is. It’s huge. Easier to do with two people but we got both our buggy and buggy frame. Plus a few extras hidden in our buggy. *saves on luggage* 😅 The fastening the pull with a clip didn’t fasten as tight as we would like so covered the handle with a blanket just in case. When we got to our destination it was all in one piece but the blanket had moved. There was one very small hole in the bag, but was structurally okay. & on the way home I got my husband to pull it with some welly to extra make sure it was okay. When we arrived back in London it was all good. Few scuffs but all good. There is only one strap shame it’s not a backpack like others. One massive bonus is that it’s bright red. Can see it going around the luggage belt a mile away! & or on the tarmac when we got off the plane! Not sure how many trips it has in it but it was worth it! For the price I would buy again.

Bought it for my Doona car seat cum stroller. It’s universal and quite huge, can probably fit any car seats. Easy to identify with the print and colours on it. Quality looks good too.

S JL Childress Gate Check Bag for Car Seats for Newborn and Above (Red) Here's a review of the JL Childress Gate Check Bag: As a frequent traveler with a little one, this car seat gate check bag has been an absolute game-changer for navigating airports. The bright red color makes it instantly recognizable on the baggage carousel, and more importantly, alerts baggage handlers to handle with care. The material is impressively durable – after several flights, it shows minimal wear despite the rough treatment typical of air travel. What I particularly appreciate is how easy it is to stuff the car seat inside; the bag is generously sized with enough room to accommodate even bulkier convertible car seats, and the drawstring closure ensures everything stays secure during transit. The practical features really set this bag apart from cheaper alternatives. The built-in carrying handle makes it manageable to transport through the airport, and the water-resistant material has saved our car seat from unexpected rain on the tarmac multiple times. While it's not padded (which would have been nice but would also make it less packable), it does an excellent job of preventing scuffs and keeping dirt off the car seat. The bag folds down small enough to tuck into a suitcase when not in use, which is perfect for the return journey. For the price point, this bag offers outstanding value, especially considering the peace of mind it provides knowing your child's car seat is protected during travel. One small suggestion: an additional shoulder strap would make it even more convenient to carry, but this is a minor quibble for an otherwise excellent product.

This bag is perfect for airports. It is nothing fancy, but it does exactly what you need it toprotects your car seat from scratches, is easy to carry, and makes it simple to spot your seat at baggage reclaim. A great travel essential for families.

Did what it was supposed to do. Would have loved for it to have been padded but nonetheless it saved our car seat from getting scratched and it arrived at the other end of both journeys in one piece. So I’d say the quality held up fair. It’s super large capacity so we even chucked in a bit more in there like our hoodies and blankets that wouldn’t have fit in our carry on. So win win!

Did the job for one trip. It ripped straight away after the first flight. I don’t think it’s great value for money and doesn’t have good longevity.

Great product - took our own car seats on a family trip to Canada - seats well protected, additional packing into bag too. Definitely recommend if you are hiring a car and want trustworthy (your own) car seats.
