Oh yes it would be nice to have a backpack strap option. I think it would definitely help with the weight bc it is very heavy on the shoulders if you pack it full. Thanks for watching!
That was my 1st thought when I bought mine. It’d be perfection as a convertible backpack. I’ve sent messages suggesting that to Amy…hoping they’ll come out with it someday.
I was on the fence with this bag - waiting for the laptop & voila'! You pulled it out - fantastic! Thanks for always including that in your reviews, it's so helpful :)
Thank you so much for the advice. Someone else mentioned that too in the comments. That does work that way. Thanks for the help☺. Glad you liked the review.
Thank you for showing it. That’s the color I was going to get. It is a lot bigger than I thought. I haven’t been traveling much so I wouldn’t really use it right now. The problem I have with bags like that is when you pack them up, it is just so heavy. Duffle bags seem to distribute the weight better. It is beautiful though. I have a large gondola bag which I have been using but it was very awkward to carry around.
Thanks for watching!☺️ You know when I saw it on Debbie and Ami I thought it was large but then when I got it home it appeared larger than I thought. It's nice that it holds so much tho. Yes the way I packed that was so heavy. Definitely a bag I will have to put over the handles of my suitcase or have as a car bag when road tripping. Speaking of the Gondola are you getting one of the big deals? I ordered one in purple.
@@AmandaPerkins815 I actually just bought the black. I think it’s a better size than the large gondola I have. I wish they would bring back the Taxi tote in more colors.
I love my Gondola XL for carrying board games! It’s big enough for even the big bulky euro games, but will still zip shut to keep them protected from the weather.
Great video. What if you put the sunglasses in the bobsled upside down, will it fit the same? Thanks for showing us , I’m getting two for my glasses and sunglasses.
Thanks. Glad you liked the video. Yes they do fit much better upside down. I think the bobsled will fit almost all sizes of sunglasses. Have a great week.
Great review Amanda! I bought the ranger xl in ocean and black! I am planning on using mine as my extra “personal bag”. To carry my cosmetics, electronics and chargers, sweater, nap sac All the things I like to keep with me). I agree with you, I would never carry this on my shoulder, it would be too heavy. It’s a great size for when my mini pj isn’t big enough but the PJ tote is too big! A great in between size
Hey. Hope things are going well with you. Glad you liked the review. I bet it's so pretty in ocean. I love that color. Oh yes it is a great in between size. Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend.
I purchased this in the Ocean Blue. When I first opened it, I thought it was going to be too small, but when I pulled it out of the bag, and saw how deep it was, I was excited! I took it on an overnight visit with family, and it held everything I packed. I had a small packing cube with my pjs, underwear, and a shirt(wore the same pants the next day), my EzPacking cosmetic tote(I honestly could have taken a smaller bag, but this one was already packed) with my toiletries, and a pair of Rainbow flip flops, with my charger, earbuds, and my meds(in the new mini choo choo) in the cargo pockets. All in the main compartment, with plenty of extra room. In the front pocket, I put my iPad inside its protective travel case. It worked great, and I could've packed a lot more into the bag!
I bet it is so pretty in the ocean blue. Wow it looks like you were able to fit a lot of stuff in there. Awesome. Thanks for watching and hope you have a great weekend.
Great review! I bought ocean blue. Its first outing may be our (delayed!) 25th anniversary cruise. Well, 26th, now… It’s going to be my embarkation bag, so it will have my paperwork, electronics, swimwear, purse, water bottle, and a change of clothes. Well, that and my shawl I’m knitting. Knitting makes standing in lines more bearable! I will carry my black Swivel, because I like how it can snug up under my arm, nice and safe. And it can zip flat for packing, if I want to put my wallet in my pocket or main bag.
Great review, you sunglasses will fit if you turn them upside down to insert into the Bobsled. I did this with my oversized sunglasses and it zipped closed just fine. Try it to see if it works for you. I love your reviews.
Someone else had mentioned about turning them upside down and yes it works well. Thank you for the advice. So glad you like the reviews. Thank you for taking the time to watch them. have a great weekend.
I have two of the Ranger Mini, three of the Ranger, but I do not have a Ranger XL. Hmm 🤔. Maybe, I need one in my life, you know, just in case. Thanks for sharing
I will warn you that if you pack it full it gets heavy! I actually like many more Lug bags for traveling more than this one. It may be my least favorite after using it a few times. Maybe if you want to complete your Ranger collection you might want one. For me, there are others that are more functional. You know me- I'll tell you how it is🤣🤣🤣. Have a great week.
Amanda can you please tell me if there's a big difference in color between Lug Ocean Blue and the Sky Blue? It looks different online. Is the Sky Blue a really light blue? Thank you.
Yes there is a big difference. The ocean is more of a teal blue, some green undertones. It literally is more of the teal color like the Carribbean Sea. The Sky Blue reminds me of the color of a blue highlighter, definitely lighter, not a baby blue. Is that helpful?
This is a little bigger than the PJ. It can get heavier when you pack it full too. Definitely taller ands has that nice gusset to allow even more room.
I don't really think they compare. This is more north south orientation and I find the PJ Duffle is more east west. You have the one compartment in the middle with the Ranger but you have. multiple compartments in the Duffle. Between the 2 I definitely like the PJ Duffle b better. Thanks.
I was on the fence about the Ranger XL, love your detailed walk through and real life use! I also have the PJ duffle and love it, but this bag was growing on me, but i wasnt sire i "Nneeded" it. Since I know you also love the PJ duffle I was really interested in what you preferred. You have some of my favourite lug review videos! Thanks for sharing.
@@cann2182 would love to know if you decide to get the Ranger XL. If you already have the PJ Duffle and love it you might not have a need for this one. But let's be honest do we really have need for any of these?😉🤣 Thanks for asking my opinion about the 2 bags.
@@happylifeplannera.8648 Yes I can do that. I already have the cable car and I ordered the charter this week on Luglive. It hasn't shipped yet but as soon as I get it I can definitely compare the two.
It’s big! I think it would be more versatile if it was a convertible backpack. Thank you for an excellent demonstration!
Oh yes it would be nice to have a backpack strap option. I think it would definitely help with the weight bc it is very heavy on the shoulders if you pack it full. Thanks for watching!
I wish it had the straps, too. If they ever release it like that, I’ll almost certainly buy one!

Thanks for the feedback. I always love knowing what you find helpful in review videos. Thanks and hope you have a great rest of your week.
Excellent overview. Thank you. Suggestion: try putting the sunglasses in upside down. With the scare section at the bottom. They may fit better :)
Thanks for the tip. Someone else did mention that as well and I tried it that way and they work. Thanks so much!!!😃
Try putting your sunglasses in the bobsled with the wider side down, it should fit better. Great review, thanks!

@@AmandaPerkins815 Can’t decide. Not sure I would use it very often since I already have one but I think this one looks smaller.
@@AmandaPerkins815 I actually just bought the black. I think it’s a better size than the large gondola I have. I wish they would bring back the Taxi tote in more colors.
@@cnunesoregon a lot of people seem to like the older styles and want to see them revived. Maybe it will happen.

Have you tried putting in your sunglassses upside down in the bobsled? My cat eye glasses that stick out fit better that way 😀
I did not think of that so thank you so much for the advice. I have now tried it since you mentioned that and they do work. Thank you!!!!
Great video! It’s a very pretty bag with a good amount of capacity.
Glad you liked the video. Do you have the Ranger XL?

@@AmandaPerkins815 Oh! Well, thank you for telling me. I have a Puddle Jumper Tote, so maybe I’ll just stick with that. ❤️🙏
Great review! Really wish it had backpack straps and those side pockets would drive me a little crazy.
I agree that backpack straps would be really helpful as well. It can get pretty heavy.
Such a helpful video, thanks!
So glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend.
Excellent demo.
Thanks so much and thanks for watching!

@@AmandaPerkins815 Yes Thank you very much! 🙂
Love the color❤️
Did you get one?
@@AmandaPerkins815 no I did not I am thinking about it though!!
How does this compare to the Puddle Jumper LE?
This is a little bigger than the PJ. It can get heavier when you pack it full too. Definitely taller ands has that nice gusset to allow even more room.
I’ve seen people say put the sunglasses in the bobsled upside down. I had a cleaning cloth in the bobsled and somehow it fell out.
Yes someone else had mentioned that so I tried it and it worked. Thanks so much for watching!
How do you find this in comparison to the puddle jumper duffle?
I don't really think they compare. This is more north south orientation and I find the PJ Duffle is more east west. You have the one compartment in the middle with the Ranger but you have. multiple compartments in the Duffle. Between the 2 I definitely like the PJ Duffle b better. Thanks.

What size does it measure when it is completely full like you filled it?
It really still measures the same. I don't have it bulked out too much. Thanks for watching!
Love this 😀thank you 😊
Thanks for watching. Have a great week 😃
I would never pack it heavy. It’s my carry on.
That's great. I definitely felt the way I packed it for a weekend was way heavy.
If you have Charter VL could you make a video compare it with other bag
I have a Charter ordered. What bag are you wanting it compared to?
@@AmandaPerkins815 the charter to the cable car vl
@@happylifeplannera.8648 Yes I can do that. I already have the cable car and I ordered the charter this week on Luglive. It hasn't shipped yet but as soon as I get it I can definitely compare the two.
