The hot water bottles left in the Skip Hop Forma had the smallest water temperature change out of all the bags I tested: a mere 16.2-degree drop (from 109 degrees Fahrenheit to 92.8 degrees) after 2 hours in the insulated side pockets and insulated packing cube. The included changing pad was the narrowest of all that I tested and not the most plush, but it did its job. The side insulated pockets fit my massive Hydro Flask water bottle and my son’s smaller bottle, regardless of how stuffed the bag was. While some families might like the excess pockets in some of the other bags-16, 12 and 18, respectively-I found this bag’s pockets a better use of space. The packing cubes helped me to pack smarter and to keep items organized and the built-in stroller snaps meant I wouldn’t forget them at home.Ĭompared to the other more affordable (under $100) diaper bags that I tested, the Ruvalino, Eddie Bauer Cascade and BabbleRoo options, the Skip Hop Forma is far more streamlined and offered more utility. I also enjoyed the spacious exterior side insulated pockets and the larger front pocket’s packing cubes. ![]() The interior is deep and more spacious than expected. The Skip Hop Forma’s main compartment features a wide double-zipper opening and a bright teal, easy-to-wipe-down interior. Lex Goodman For Forbes A Size That’s Just Right The Skip Hop Forma was the lightest diaper bag I tested. (Read my full in-depth review of the Petunia Pickle Bottom Meta Diaper Bag here.) In terms of maintenance, this bag requires almost nothing, which is a major win for parents who are already bogged down with innumerable cleaning tasks. The light interior of the Petunia Pickle Bottom Meta made items inside easy to see, and its water-resistant interior makes for easy cleanup, even if your child’s food pouch explodes. The water I spilled on it simply ran off, not leaving a trace of moisture, and I was able to remove the blueberry puree I had left on it overnight with a single swipe of a towel, whereas some other bags I tested, took soap and water to remove the stain. The Meta’s exterior didn’t get dirty whatsoever with all-day wear. The temperature of the water dropped to 87.2 degrees Fahrenheit from 109 degrees after 2 hours. I should note that this diaper bag came in third in terms of keeping a bottle warm in the insulated pocket, after the Skip Hop Forma and the Béis, but far ahead of most other contenders, including the Freshly Picked and Herschel diaper bags. The Petunia Pickle Bottom Meta backpack was comfortable without feeling too bulky.
