I just bought a famiglia campeggio for school, but since the material is so thin on tokidokis, and after hearing stories about brackets popping off and such I'm kinda scared to put too many textbooks in it. Who uses these for school? How much weight can they take?

I don't have a campeggio but my BF has an andiamo and it seems to be able to hold a ton. When we go shopping in SF we put all our purchases in his bag along w/all the essentials. I picked the bag up the other day and I almost dropped it immediately it had to weigh more than 30lbs

and he carried it around the city like that!

I don't know what you've been reading about rivets popping off but I thought that was only a problem really early on with the first edition of original print

plus its rip stop nylon ^__^ if the material could easy rip or tear people wouldnt make parachutes out of them... unless of course they wanted to die :x

The bag will never rip unless you slice it with something. At Christmastime I was at the Southampton store and I found the most perfect Olive Cammo Bella bella WEEELLLL it had a giant slice in the bottom. Someone must have sliced it when opening the box

The campeggios are very

. I have a Tan Playground Campeggio and can carry a lot in, hardcover books, another purse, and lots of other items that weigh a good deal and never had any issues and, like TokiliciousJenY said, I think it was just the 1st season Toki bags that had issues with rivets popping. I haven't heard of any issues with 2nd season (Tan Playground & Cammo Playgrounds) & subsequent seasons having the rivet issue. I think you'll be OK.

The cashier didn't double bag the milk and I was afraid the bag's gonna break.

Campeggios are my fav style- I really pack my bag to the brim: full size organizer, full size lotion, brush, external drive, water bottle, make-up bag, wallet and my lunch...

heehee..buy buy buy! I dont think there really is much of a difference between the two? cucciolo has the mesh pockets, the changing pad and its a little bit wider than the campeggio..:)

campeggio: 13 x 14 x 6 in
cucciolo: 13 x 16.25 x 6 in

pinkpeony: wow 2 gallons of milk? geez thats awesome! definitely can hold txt books!
