Is the Grand Tote worth it?

If you want a big, light, patterned cotton tote at an outlet price, yes. If you need a zipped top or a structured work bag, look elsewhere.

How does it compare with the Vera Bradley Original Tote?

The Grand is larger, with a 33 L capacity and a 15-inch height versus the smaller Original. Both are quilted cotton with an open top and a single zip pocket.

Does it fit under an airplane seat?

At 14 by 15 by 8.5 inches it is carry-on compliant and generally fits under most seats. A full 33 L load may be tight on smaller regional planes.

Is there a zipper closure?

No. The top is open, and the only zip is the interior pocket. Plan on a pouch or organizer for valuables.

A 15-inch laptop, a water bottle, a sweater and a small pouch fit with room to spare. The 8.5-inch depth keeps it from feeling flat.

Outlet patterns like this one are already discounted, and Vera Bradley runs periodic sales. Watch for clearance events rather than expecting deep cuts on current prints.

About the Vera Bradley Grand Tote

The Vera Bradley Grand Tote is a large quilted cotton tote in the brand's signature patterned fabric, here in the A Cat's Life print. It measures 14 by 15 by 8.5 inches with a 33 L capacity and a 12-inch handle drop, and it is sized to work as a carry-on. It has one interior zip pocket and no closure across the top. Target lists it as an outlet-style item, so it is a lower-cost way into the Vera Bradley line than full-price store patterns.
