Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the product's quality, describing items as beautiful, well-made, and exceeding expectations. Many appreciate the unique designs and the option for personalization, finding the bags sturdy and perfectly sized. The customer service is frequently highlighted as exceptional, with many people appreciating the personalized and communicative approach throughout the ordering and delivery process. However, some customers experienced issues with delivery times, noting longer-than-expected waits due to international shipping.

There were also occasional concerns about the perceived quality of materials, with some feeling the leather was not as premium as advertised and zippers were weak.

Clever and Well-Made Bags

I have ordered handbags and wallets from TheNoteBags twice now. I love these bags and wallets! The one I've been carrying (If the book's open, I'm busy) has gotten lots of compliments and always makes someone say, "Oh, that's me!" The bags and wallets are very well made, and communication with the company is excellent. I'm looking forward to my new bag!

Such a beautiful bag and so much bigger…

Such a beautiful bag and so much bigger than I had anticipated! While shipping did take a little bit it was not excessively long and since it is personalized it is well worth the wait! If you’re on the fence then just do it. It’s always good to treat yourself once in a while !

I wouldn’t buy here again.

I ordered two bags and two matching wallets. Both with names and messages. The first wallet came and only message and name on one side and the zipper keeps sticking, badly enough to not close. The second wallet was ok. Again just not the quality for the several hundred dollars I paid. It was clearly printed on. And it looks cheap. Then the first bag came. No name or messages this bad and the first wallet were supposed to be a nice expensive gift for my sister. And there isn’t even any personal message on the bag. The second bag came and it has the name and message but again looks like it was printed on. I would never have spent this kind of money on what nearly looks and feels like temu bags.

Dear Cheyenne,

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience, especially since these items were meant to be a meaningful gift for your sister. This is not the level of quality or accuracy we aim to deliver.

The issues you described — missing personalization, zipper problems, and print quality — are very concerning, and we sincerely apologize for these mistakes. This is not typical of our standards, and we understand how disappointing this must have been for you.

Please contact us at cs@thenotebags.com with your order details and photos of the items. We will review this carefully and make it right for you, whether that means replacements or another appropriate resolution.

Your satisfaction is very important to us, and we appreciate you giving us the chance to fix this.

Absolutely beautiful

The Notebags are strong, sturdy and just plain beautiful. The one I got was the sunflowers that I put my own quote on. What could be better than getting a free wallet as well with it and I also ordered the matching bookmark. All 3 items had my name as well as my personal quote. There are a lot of beautiful quotes to choose from if you don't want to personalize with your own quote as well. The bags are strong and ohhhh so beautiful, nicely sized for all your personal items, water bottle, keys etc and not forgetting booksssssssssss I love it all every bag and I will be stopping by for more, thank you so so much.
