One Bogg Bag alternative not to buy? Skip this replica by Crown & Ivy.

Erica’s sister-in-law wanted one of these bags as her baby shower gift. So she decided to scoop one up to fill with baby essentials. She purchased the Simply Southern Tote from Amazon (one of our top picks above). And this Crown & Ivy brand from Belk.

Unfortunately for Erica, this experience taught her the lesson of “you get what you pay for” as one side of the Crown & Ivy handle popped right off! 😣

She had hers filled with necessities for a fun day at the pool but the contents of this rubber beach bag spilled everywhere – while carrying her baby no less!

If it’s any consolation, the Belk customer service team was so kind and onlinepassionate towards this unpleasant experience. They offered Erica a full refund without needing her to send back the bag. At least there was a silver lining to the not-so-stellar purchase but buyer beware as other reviewers of the Crown & Ivy bag have reported the same issue!
