MyWallaby Doll Carrier Review and Giveaway

mywallaby-purse

UPDATE!! Congratulations to the giveaway winner – Ana P. Thanks to all who entered.

I’d like to welcome our newest site sponsor, myWallaby.com! MyWallaby Agile Doll Carrier is the coolest purse and doll carrier we have seen yet.  The Agile’s patent pending design enables it to accommodate a variety of dolls and stuffed animals, ranging in size from 12-18 inches. The myWallaby bag is sold exclusively online through myWallaby.com and Amazon.com for $49.99.

They sent us two to review and even better – we are giving one lucky reader a myWallaby in the color combination of their choice, too – so, read on!!

myWallaby Doll CarrierMy youngest daughter still loves taking her dolls everywhere, the mall, to her friend’s house, the grocery store, you name it. Usually she just carries her doll or puts her in the American Girl Doll carrier, but then she still has her hands full. The myWallaby doll carrier looks like a normal purse (and can be used that way, too) but it has a unique kangaroo pouch that unvelcros from behind the zippered pouch to create space for your doll’s legs to fit securely inside – leaving your hands free. I said it was cool!

The adjustable shoulder strap is long enough to go over your head so the purse can be worn across the body – making it super secure. The strap is padded and made of a super soft microfiber suede. The purse has a small magnetic clasp to keep the contents safe when it is being used just as a purse. When open there are two sections – one to hold items like a brush, cell phone, spending money and anything else a little girl needs to have at all time – and the other section is where you put the doll in.

On the front of the purse there is another compartment that is zippered – again, to hold all sorts of treasures. Underneath the zippered pouch is the velcro release for the leg compartment. And the bottom of the purse is made of the same microfiber suede as the strap.

mywallaby-closeupThe myWallaby doll carrier is the perfect gift for any little girl who loves taking her dolls or plush friends with her on her daily adventures!! So, how can you win one??

    That was very smart to advertise on this website! Those bags are so much more innovative than the AG doll carriers and I’m sure they’ll sell well. I don’t really have a reason to tote around any of my dolls, but I’m sure half of the country’s 8 year olds do!

  2. Monique Rizzo says:

    The Cotton Candy is my fave. Thanks for the chance.

  3. Char says:

    Abby – trust me, these bags are not cheaply made at all! The material is very high quality and all of the seams are properly finished and strong. When you see the doll carrier up close you can really see that no detail was left out. They are very well made.

  4. Anne (agfan14) says:

  8. Halley says:

    My daughter is a cancer patient at MD Anderson in Houston. This doll carrier would be perfect for taking her favorite dolls to her many Dr. appointments. The strap also looks long enough to hang on the back of a wheel chair for those days when she is too tired to carry everything. great Product and she loves all the colors.

  17. Sarah says:

    I liked the pine cone colors on the wallaby bags because it makes you feel cosy as if you were camping in a forest full of trees and pine cones. I think the doll carrier is very well made and easy to take care of also the colors look very well thought of and the illustrations look well thought of too.

  18. Abby says:

    Hey, cool! theres another Abby! lol! GOOD NEWS! I have enought money for a doll and I’m ordering JLY….. #19! I’m going to name her Gertrude, and she is a guitar player. I’m on this pop strike thing and I get $100 with no pop for six months. I end September 5, but my dad says I can order her early!

  19. Julie Ventura says:

    My daughter and I checked out the bags. She like the Sunrise Surprise the best. The bag looks like it can hold alot. I also like that the dolls feet are in a pouch, no lost shoes anymore. I like the adjustable strap. My daughter can wear it and if she gets tired, I can easily adjust it for me to carry.

    Isle of Capri

  37. Kelly says:

    isle of capri is my favorite color combo! i went to the website, and these bags look just fantastic!!! i would use it so much as it makes a very nice purse! i love how the little compartments are padded to protect your special things. another plus is how the legs are covered. i always worry about losing my doll shoes. this would also come in handy while traveling, as i always bring a doll with me on a long plane or car ride and this bag would make carrying her so much easier! i will save up for this right away, but i really hope i can get one for free!!

  38. Jessica says:

  42. Brittney says:

  43. Sonya says:

    These carriers are adorable! I love the cotton candy.

  44. shawna says:

    The cotton candy is adorable, what a great idea!

  45. Jennifer says:

    the Pine Cone doll carrier

  46. Melanie says:

    The Blue Topaz carrier.

  47. Nicole says:

    I have to say that the green and blue (isle of capri) is my favorite color combination for the bag. I looks as though it would be very useful, but 18 inch dolls look too tall for it. I doubt I would put any doll above 16 inches in it. The bag also seems like it will be a great hit amongst girls who are still at the age where hey bring their dolls out with them. I also love that it could be converted into a purse, a very useful feature in my opinion.

  49. tina reynolds says:

    i would pick the cotton candy Main Body – Light Pink, Pouch – Pink, Lining – Champagne, Bottom/Strap – Nutmeg for my daughter carly thanks for the chance to win

  50. I think they are a great idea! I love the Cotton Candy one!
