The Skip Hop Forma Diaper Bag Backpack is exactly what we're looking for in a diaper bag. Special Projects Director, Alison Goldman, says: "This diaper bag has gone everywhere with my family for the past year-and-a-half-plus, and it both fits everything and stays organized." She also loves how comfortable it is to wear and how it's held up after being tossed around. "And one more important criteria: It's sleek and doesn't scream, 'diaper bag' or 'purse.'"

  • Availability — Can you easily access this item?
  • Affordability — Is it budget-friendly or worth the splurge?
  • Functionality — Does it serve its desired function or beyond that? Does it solve the organizing issue at hand?
