The L.L. Bean Rolling Deluxe is easy to open and close, and additional compartments were a snap to reach. Child testers rated it as extremely comfortable to walk with, and Good Housekeeping Research Institute lab testers determined it will hold your child’s ever-expanding assortment of stuff. However, it really packs on the weight at just over 5 pounds when empty. Also, the handle stuck for some during the tests. The kids were pleased with the wide assortment of colors and patterns for the bag, and their parents approved of its stability and looks.
