What is the return window?

Most items can be returned or exchanged within 45 days of purchase. Items must be brand new, unused, undamaged, with original tags attached and packaging intact, and purchased directly from the BÉIS website.
How long does shipping take?
⌄
Express and Next Day Air orders take 1 to 2 business days to process plus 1 to 2 business days to ship. Standard Shipping takes 2 to 5 business days to process plus 2 to 5 business days to ship. During product launches, restocks, US holidays, or high-order periods, processing can take up to 5 to 7 business days.
How are refunds issued?
⌄
Refunds are issued to the original payment method, minus a $10 handling fee, unless the original payment method is no longer active, in which case store credit is issued instead. Refunds are processed only after the returned item is received and verified at the warehouse, which takes 2 to 3 business days after delivery, and can take up to 10 business days to appear once processed.
Does luggage have a warranty?
⌄
Yes, carry-on and check-in luggage is covered by a Limited Lifetime Luggage Warranty, separate from the standard return policy.
What if an item arrives broken or defective?
⌄
Items that arrive broken or defective are covered under the Quality Guarantee: request a refund or replacement within 45 days of the purchase date through the Returns and Exchanges page. Follow the prompts to submit the claim.
Does the changing pad fold away?
⌄
Yes! The changing station tucks into a U-zip compartment on the back panel, so it stays flat and hidden until you need it. Unzip and it folds out to a padded pad (double the size of the previous version) with one big mesh pocket and two elastic cinch pockets, one for wipes and one for diapers. Everything for a change lives in that one zone, so you're not excavating the main compartment on a public bathroom counter.
Which pocket keeps bottles cold?
⌄
One L-shaped insulated zipper pocket on the side of the bag holds baby bottles, or anything else you want kept cool. The opposite side has two gusseted flat slide-in pockets with an elastic channel, so they stretch to take a water bottle and lie flat against the bag when they're empty (no bulk, no flapping).
What comes in the box?
⌄
Along with the backpack you get a water-resistant stink bag, a pacifier pouch, and two stroller straps. The front pouch is part of the bag itself: it detaches and becomes a fanny pack or crossbody on its adjustable webbing strap.
How does it feel when it's packed full?
⌄
Loaded up, this bag is doing real work, so the shoulder straps are wider and padded on a new strap pattern to cut down pressure points, and the back panel is padded and quilted for air circulation. The right strap has an expandable zippered pocket with a 20cm opening that fits a phone up to an iPhone 16 Pro Max, so your phone isn't buried while you've got a baby on your hip.
Can the front pouch be used on its own?
⌄
Yes, and it's the feature you'll lean on most. The front pouch detaches completely and wears as a fanny pack or crossbody on its adjustable webbing strap. Its flap has a magnetic closure that works with most wipes bags, so you can grab a wipe one-handed without unzipping a thing. Inside, there's a zippered main compartment plus a small zip pocket on the interior back wall. Park trip? Take just the pouch and leave the backpack in the car.
Does it work as an everyday bag too?
⌄
The interior has a padded laptop compartment that fits 13" and 15" laptops, plus a big horizontal mesh pocket and two elastic slide-in pockets, and the trolley pass-through doubles as an extra pocket when it's zipped. Nylon body, spot clean only, and it's built to shrug off spills, so it keeps earning its keep long after the diaper years.
How does it handle smells and spills?
⌄
The nylon body is stain resistant and odor proof, and a water-resistant stink bag is included for the items you'd rather seal away. Cleanup is spot clean only.
