Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy and Abundance Boxy Backpacks

Hi everyone!

After a rather crazy month away, I’m back! And I’m here to share with you a comparison of the Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy and Abundance Boxy backpack diaper bags. Chances are, if you’re researching these bags, you are wondering what the difference between the two really is. And with a difference in price of only about $20, you may be wondering if it is worth “splurging” on the larger version. You can never have too much room, right? Well, you may. These bags were MUCH larger than I had anticipated, so I’m really happy PPB worked with me to do a comparison review.

In this review, the Boxy backpack is packed for a day out with a single child and the Abundance Boxy backpack is packed for twins. The images in the table have been shrunken down for easy side by side comparison, but feel free to click them to enlarge them.
