Review: Used 3 for 3 car seats - This was worth every penny, and I bought three of them. We flew with our three under three, and I'm so glad we got these. (Not just because we could buckle a few extra things into the car seats.) :) I had three different sizes of car seats, and they all fit great in the bag! I'm glad, especially because we were rushing both times! The only bag that ripped a little was the one with the infant car seat. Yes, it ripped, but almost any bag is going to rip with an infant car seat inside being thrown around an airport. I'm not at all worried about reusing it, even with the minor rips. I don't think the integrity of the bag was compromised in any significant way. The car seats were just as clean as when I put them in, just be sure to tuck the string inside after you close the top. I would recommend tying a little knot in the string after you close it, just to make sure it doesn't open. Because it's nylon cord, the knot was super easy to get undone after the flight. They roll up very easily for storage, I'm definitely going to keep them to use them again. I looked at a lot of car seat covers, and I definitely feel like this was the best quality for the price.
Review: Affordable and worth it - I debated getting this but it was well worth the money. Protected my infant car seat and made it easier to transport with the handle. Not the most durable fabric but gets the job done if you don’t travel often. We were able to put our two inflatable booster seats in there as well and saved us so much space.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this bag have a backpack strap to carry over the shoulder?**
A: The Gate Check Bag is designed to be used for checking at the airplane gate. There is one carry-strap for easy lifting during the gate-check process. For carrying longer distances, we recommend either a fully padded bag that provides more comfort and ergonomic support for you and your gear, or a travel bag with wheels that allows for easy manueverability. Check out the J.L. Childress Ultimate Padded Backpack Car Seat Travel Bag, Wheelie Car Seat Travel Bag or Deluxe Spinner Wheelie Padded Car Seat Travel Bag.

**Q: Does this fit the Graco 4Ever car seat?**
A: The bag is huge... it would fit any car seat. Just beware it will be good for one trip. It does not hold up well.

**Q: Would this bag cover my recaro pro car seats? They are pretty big and wide.**
A: The bag is really wide and roomy.  If your car seat is pretty tall,  I would measure it and check against the bags height.  It might be a snug fit.  I didn’t have any issues with my recaro.  I just don’t have the pro model.

**Q: Does it fit the evenflo securekid dlx booster?**
A: It's about the side of a black outdoor trash bag. It will fit the evenflo securekid dix booster with plenty of room to spare.
