      Hi, my DD going P3 next year has been asking for a trolley bag. She used the impact bag currently n complained that the bag was v heavy after adding in the books which I agree as even without books it has a certain wt itself. I like to get feedback from parents whose DD has used the my melody trolley bag. Not cheap, saw it retailing at $119 in OG. I am concern if it will b problem if she needs to make her way up the stairs to her classroom n down. The padding looks good cos the trolley spine is like built in n u shd not feel the hardness of the trolley spine shd u carry it like a backbpack. Of cos the other concern I have is the childish design which not sure can last her till p4 n 5. Feedback , anyone? Thanks.

          Hi Marmum


          We usually give the Deuter bags a good scrub and wash half-yearly, so far so good. Next year will be the 6th (for DS1) and 4th year (for DS2) with the same school bags. :lol: [/quote]

            Any idea where to get the best price for Deuter range? So far only saw Smart & Whiz range of bags. Whiz having promo at $69 or $79 for sizes S and M while Smart is $119 for S and S$129 for M. Any idea what other ranges are avail in Singapore and where to get them? Any current users advise on washing/ cleaning it?

                        Weight is not the only factor to consider when choosing a school bag, but it is still good to know before you buy one.


                        Lets do a survey on the weight of school bag of different brands and models when without loading.

                        I have a normal school bag (W30cm x H40cm x D20cm); Weight 500g
                        I read a brochure of Tiger ergo school bag (W35cm x H40.5cm x D21.5cm) Weight 990 - 1000g
                        I read somewhere that SPI bag spec in brochure stated Weight < 1.2kg

                        Wah! the extra form and padding in the ergo bag put on extra weight of 0.5 - 0.7kg to the bag. One ergo bag weight = 2 normal bags weight

                        Pls let us know the weight of your school back without load.
