[quote=\"myz\"]Dear Parents, my DD is entering P1 next yr and her Sch bookshop is selling Firefly ergonomic bag. May I know if any of your children has used Firefly before and what is the feedback on this bag?

Thank you.

My son uses that for 2 years till now in P2. But will be changing from P3 next yr. Some parts not so lasting, like its edges, will break and the plastic frame inside will protrude out. For safety, I have to cut it off. The handle will not last too if weight is heavy and keep lifting the bag using the handle. So it can at most last 2 years or so. Overall, it's light, ergonomic, nice looking and has big capacity but prepared to change in about 2 years.

Dear Tim Tim, thank you for your feedback. I went to Popular bookshop yesterday to check out the Firefly bag. It looks oversized on my DD. Have u had any feedback on Deuter Genius or Impact Junior? :udaman:[/quote]U're welcome. One more merit of Firefly is its reflective material for safety at night as it reflects lights from vehicles. I've no experience with Deuter bags and my son's next bag is Dr Kong. Cheers!

Have you tried Satch available with ergokid in Wheelock or Kid2youth in Suntec City? The Satch is a German bag and comes with a frame to distribute weight load and protect the back.

Impact is heavier and also bigger.

Deuter Genius has 3 sizes. Size Small os prefect for P1 if the kid is small build. But if u intend to let ur kid use it for years, size S may not be able to fit ur requirement if there are more books to bring in the later years.[/quote]

Was at Jcube just now. Saw this store selling sports equipment beside Challenger. There is a 30% discount…saw this bag which is boyish and importantly, son likes it very much. I fell in love with the color combination.

$69.90.

kid2youth has a wide range of school bags... ergobag, derdiedas, deuter, dr kong, and totem. i like the totem as it's very affordable with starting price at $89 with 2 yr warranty some more. it has a welded base which means that it can withstand wear and tear and can sit on the floor without toppling, unlike some other popular brands.

Hi, has anyone heard or bought the Buddy school bag? I found it on Google and on a few website reviewing it. Just wondering if any of you can share about your experience. I heard it’s a Singapore product.

How about Impact and SPI? I see them almost everywhere in the department stores but they don’t look very nice. But then again, I’m not sure if ergonomic bags are supposed to look nice. Can anyone share?
