Hey everyone, welcome to a brand new video! Just gonna warn you that this is a really long one. But there is a ton of good information in this one - especially if you are considering buying a Chanel Classic Flap. I know these videos were really helpful for me when I was considering buying one.

In this video I’m going to compare different sizes of the bag, how I use them, what I typically carry inside, briefly the wear and tear so far, mod shots, measurements of the strap and weight of each bag, and how I store each bag.

A lovely subscriber asked if I can fit a 13” MacBook Pro inside the Maxi flap. I tried it and it does!!!!! 😱🤯

So glad you are doing this video and included Maxi. Most people start small and only go up to jumbo.

@julialinck7407 1 year ago

Seeing this video for the first time in 2025, thank you so much! Still the most helpful, best review :)

My dream bag is a Jumbo in caviar <3 I think the maxi will be too big for my frame. I am too short lol but I agree that the maxi looks more elegant.

Jan 2022 - Just found your channel, see people are still watching your videos years after you made them. thanks you helped me greatly.

I love the look of the jumbo!

@TheLuxonomy 6 years ago

Yay loved the video! I had to take a break but now having watched it all, really glad you made this because I’ve been debating the maxi myself and I’m really keen now 😊😊 thanks girl! 🥰

Thanks for this video! It’s helpful when you showed the tied around the bag to keep the corner in shape and prevention 👍🏼

Most relatable Chanel video I've found on YouTube. Thank you for sharing all the info

@amberragland2325 5 years ago

Thanks for this video. Like you said I’m researching and this help tremendously.

i never knew the multiple ways that you could wear the jumbo other than your shoulder and crossbody, to be honest the backpack one looks really fashionable and cute. i was originally thinking of small or medium but this is convincing me to get a larger size ! great video, the only bag review youtube vid that i would watch for a consistent 54 minutes

Thorough and informative. Appreciate it!!!! Love the timestamps too 💕💕💕

@Greatsoprano12 5 years ago

Excellent video. Thank you. Seeing all three bags in the same color really helped make the comparison obvious. It cracked me up because I think you mentioned parking tickets in another video. It must be crazy parking where you live.

@queenaaren 5 years ago

Thank you for this video. I probably watched this video a million times last year when I was ready to make my first Chanel purchase. I couldn’t decide between the medium/large and jumbo. However, in the end - I got both 😂🤣😂 I was very lucky to get the opportunity to purchase both 🥰

@traces0fme 6 years ago

Very informative and thorough video! I enjoyed the bit about how you store the bags with the chain in the lid of the dustbag, and how you use a ribbon around your jumbo! Thanks for sharing!
