CHANEL DOUBLE FLAP JUMBO VS. MAXI SIZE COMPARISON

After numerous requests I'm finally filming a size comparison and my thoughts on which one I find to be better suited as a very first bag of the mindblowingly expensive, but oh-so-stunning fashion company.

[@sunburn1013]

I am barely five feet tall but have an incongruous love of huge bags. I love the XXL flap and the maxi. And yes, I intend on toting the kitchen sink around with me too!

[@CarolSummer]

Hahahahah!!! Rock those big bags girl if it makes you happy! Don’t let anyone tell you “ But why do you need ....???” 😂🤣😅

[@AmparoGarcíaOtero]

​@@CarolSummer That's the trouble if you are small!! Things you have to carry are the same size for small people than for big ones, so, I'm fed up about small bags although I'm small 😂

[@JonelleElise]

I just wanted to say thank you for making this video! I've been interested in the jumbo for awhile but always wondered how it would look on my body type. Most of the girls I see who do modeling shots are shorter, petite girls and it always looks good on them but I'm tall and curvy like you. It looks great on you so I know it'll look great on me now! Plus it was super helpful that you showed how long the bag falls when worn as a crossbody! Thank you SOOO much! You're hilarious, btw!

[@CarolSummer]

+JonelleElise Reading this makes my heart jump... I'm so happy it was useful !! 😘😘😘

[@lilyyy5292]

Jambo is 30cm.. Maxi is 33cm...

[@toniarichardson3332]

I'm a tall, curvy lady...I purchased the maxi caviar which I love ❤️ but I just crave a jumbo. Excitedly expecting a jumbo in charcoal grey with shw soon. Great review!

[@MzGlamourAddict]

Love Love LOVE this video!! I have the Maxi and is so in love with it. I was considering getting the jumbo BUT.. Will at a later time, as of now the Maxi is my love. Thanks for sharing your video!!

[@myluxurybasket]

Thank you dear for this video. I’m not a skinny girl, and I ordered my first Chanel bag last week. And the winner is... the Jumbo bag with double flap in caviar black leather with gold HW. 😉🖤👌🏻🖤👌🏻🖤

[@nairhababi2765]

Perfect description! Exactly how I feel after getting the maxi bag and the reason why I got it in the first place. But I rarely use it….

[@adub_from_253]

OMG - you're explanation of worn in vs. new leather had me cracking up!! love it!! New subbie

[@CarolSummer]

+Amanda Williamson Hahhahahaa! Welcome to the family 😉😘😘😘

[@user-dn9gz5lu4y]

Ever since Selena the series season 2 came out and I saw the maxi, I have been in love with how it looks the way she wore it! So happy I found this video, I really really want it now!

[@CarolSummer]

I’ve never seen it 🙈 Gonna have to check it out! 😉😘

[@MB-pt6lq]

Omg! BEST BAG VIDEO EVER! You are so funny! Love your humor! “Pro-jumbo and Chanel badge” had me hysterical! 😂Thank you for being you!!! I love your style and channel! 😘

[@robinwrussell]

Thanks for the video....I've been torn for months on which one to get!!!! But now I've decided to get the Jumbo in caviar leather with gold hardware!!! Your video was GREAT!!!!

[@mpg314]

I'm retired now and think it's very appropriate and elegant to carry a Maxi, it is really unaffordable to me so instead I'm researching the net for a good quality dupe.

[@emilyjayful]

Thank you so much! Incredibly helpful for us tall girls to know what is what. I appreciated the practical discussion about how you actually use a bag!

[@CarolSummer]

So happy I could help! 👏🏼👏🏼

[@cielozungri1379]

You are so funny and bubbly! Thank you for making this video. I’m a very short person and this video helped me decide which size to get.

[@CarolSummer]

You’re so welcome! I’m glad it helped 👏🏼😉

[@Kar_Ewel]

I'm in love with this bag . I wish I can afford to buy them one day . I really loved the jumbo . I really think this video is really informative because while purchasing a bag and tht too same bag with little difference in the size buying any among them doesn't matter . But you really explained it well

[@MT-os5xy]

Thanks for this video, now I know for sure that i would rather get the jumbo!

[@CarolSummer]

Happy it was helpful!!!!

[@madisonmulkey]

LOVED your video Carol!!!!! I have been going back and forth between the maxi and and the jumbo for a while...your video has really helped me - Jumbo it is!!! Thank you for making this video!

[@CarolSummer]

You are so welcome ! I'm happy I could help !

[@BeautyLabNL]

hi Carol! i just bought a second hand JUMBO and I am so happy that I came across your video, it gives me even more confidence that I made the right decision (I was having doubts between jumbo & maxi). I am 1,67m tall and I think the Maxi would have been to big and bulky on me. Very good comparison, very useful!! Both bags look GREAT on you, so classy! Thanks so much for your video! xx

[@BeautyLabNL]

Oh, because of my length I think I will wear the Jumbo with either the double strap OR crossbody. It's more flowy than the Maxi, so this bag it the better choice for me, I'm sure! So happy. It should arrive within 2 weeks (I ordered from rebelle.com) and I'm already excited! xx

[@CarolSummer]

Yaaaaaay!!! Zo blij mijn video heeft geholpen!!! You’re gonna love that bag. Jumbo is the perfect size, enjoy it when you get it! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, always good to know when a video is helpful. 😘😘😘

[@KaitlinRayne]

YOU ARE SO PRETTY! I LOVE THIS

[@latereasa]

Okay I just ordered a maxi double flap caviar with silver hardware because of your thorough review. I also found a caviar GST-xl with silver hardware lol! I will likely get both. I plan to use both for work ( I work a lot). I will post pics on instagram- I will try to find you on IG.

[@theehoffguyy2090]

latereasa If you buy a maxi single flap its alot less heavy and u can fit more in them too😉😉😉

[@lindsayb7509]

How did you order it? Just like that, so simple??? Can you please tell me the process? Thanks!

[@jonna6693]

I absolutely LOVE how real you are! Love your videos, very informative and fun to watch. I think I watched this video a hundred times trying to decide if I wanted the Maxi or Jumbo. Bought the Maxi (black caviar, silver hardware, single flap - "pre-loved" excellent condition with everything included) first a couple of weeks ago - LOVE IT. But still wanted the Jumbo (black caviar, silver hardware - double flap), picked that up brand new yesterday :) There is no such thing as too much Chanel!

[@CarolSummer]

Oh wooooow ! Congrats !!!!! And you're right...Chanel bags are so precious, just looking at it makes my heart sing 😂 Let me know which one you'll end up using most down the road ! Oh and I'm so happy you enjoy my videos ! I always think they are more rambly than helpful..but seems they are serving their purpose 😉😘😘

[@anh-thumai5820]

I have the jumbo but the maxi is so beautiful.

[@reneeluvsdesignerslawsin9987]

New subbie! LOVE the comparison. I’m picking up my jumbo today! So excited! Thanks for sharing 💕

[@CarolSummer]

Well welcome !! 🤗 Hope you’ll enjoy it here 😉😘

[@yayaloverene]

I just order my Jumbo cant wait omg I love your videos you're sooo funny 🤣🤣🤣💜

[@CarolSummer]

Yaaay! Enjoy it once you get it!

[@yayaloverene]

Thank you

[@KaySoriano]

I love all your videos! They’re so informational and hilarious

[@elhassanfatma2768]

Thank you sooooooo much I’ve been searching such a good review to help me decide on KZbin and never been satisfied with any video but yours !! I’ll buy the maxi only can’t decide if I pick vintage or no :) enjoy your beauties ;) xoxo

[@lindamatthews2968]

As a plus size woman, I had to sell my Chanel GST because it didn't fit over my arms real well. My next purchase will be the Chanel Jumbo. This was a good video for me to see this comparison....Jumbo it is! Thank you.

[@CarolSummer]

I'm so glad it was helpful and that you found your best fit ! xxx

[@Wow-pv4qg]

I actually like the Maxi as a shoulder bag on you, very elegant and special.

[@lisagensch847]

This is SO informative, I am not anywhere close to being able to afford a Chanel bag quite yet, but I am pretty sure I am going to save for the Jumbo double flap! By the way you are AWESOME, like someone I would want to chat to for hours! Please make more videos! I would also be very interested in knowing how the customer service was in regards to repairs etc...for that kind of money I would expect it not to have any issues at all, yiiikes.

[@CarolSummer]

+Lisa Gensch Never stop dreaming ! You'll get there, I'm sure!! I will definitely film my service experience of different brands I've had contact with. So happy you enjoyed the video !! 😘😘

[@ustadchen]

Oh my god this video deserves more views!!!

[@divajai45]

I wanted the Jumbo, but after seeing this I want the Maxi! #goals

[@madsbukowski5201]

Love your sense of humour. Great review.

[@CarolSummer]

+Mads Bukowski So happy You enjoyed! 😘😘

[@theehoffguyy2090]

Honestly my chanel maxi 😍😍😍 is my very, very, very fav. Chanel I own!💝💖 I am a taller woman though and so, I always think small bags look silly on me. However ~ Its a crying shame though, cos I recently inherited some very highend bags theres about 7 that I think are to small 4 me to carry.. I.e. 2 diff colored lambskin MEDIUM size Lady Diors, but theyr in size medium and I just cant bare to sell them cosa the sentimental value of my aunt. But I also cant bring myself to carry to them out, cos theyr to small 4 my height.. Im 5"9 flat footed..😕 I truely wish the Diors were in size Large!.. She also gave me sum smaller ysl clutches,ferragomo bags,goyard,etc etc. I have my maxi in caviar leather too.. But, I have a few diff. Colored medium sized single flaps and im really debaiting on selling them cos I rarely use them due to theyr small sizes.. I just hate small bags on me..! I have a maxi caviar leather that is a double flap and that was my 1st chanel. However recently I purchased another maxi in red & unlike my black one its a single flap maxi... But when I bought my newest red maxi, the clerk talked me into buying a single flap instead of double. I have found the single flap is alot more practical for me and it also can carry even more then my double flap.. Soo, im debaiting on sellin a few of these bags to re-invest in another birkin..lol neways ~ Great video though gorgeous ~ xoxo jessca 💝😘😘 stay safe. Just subs..

[@Susan.K-v2u]

Great job ! As always. 👍🏼👏 Like the pink cardigan 💝

[@CarolSummer]

Jasminka Dundovic I'm obsessed with this cardigan! I just got it from ASOS, but it's one of those clothing items you put on and you see and feel it's made for you 😂 Plus it's super soft. Thanks for the love and support ! 😘😘😘💕

[@christinaleow895]

The Chanel Jumbo looks amazing on you!

[@kwr2879]

Love the review...definitely jumbo for me... You cracked me up with 5'12"...lol..that's a first..

[@song4568]

I saw my first Jumbo in person at mass last Sunday. I asked the lady if she would like me to move over so it could rest in the pew between us. I moved over. :)

[@CarolSummer]

+Andrea Caldwell Hahhahahaa!!! 😘

[@HappinessSparkles]

535 subscribers that is awesome congratulations I love them both but I think if I had to choose I'd go with the maxi and I would love it in that butter colour thanks for sharing I love the. Comparison .... GORGEOUS 😍😍😍😍

[@CarolSummer]

+HappinessSparkles !! Thanks, dear ! I can't believe it myself, so much love ! Oh and a butter colour double flap ... 😍😍😍, but so afraid of it 😂 😘😘😘😘😘

[@HappinessSparkles]

I know what you mean 😱

[@hashtagjenny]

You are so sweet and funny. I just got my first Chanel. I got the jumbo. I'm in love, I cried all day.

[@CarolSummer]

+Jenny Stephan I totally understand! I walked around with a stupid smirk on my face for days !! Congrats and enjoy that beauty!! And wear the crap out of it, don't leave it in the closet for fear of a scratch 😉😘😘😘

[@debbieh9009]

Hi! I enjoyed your video! You're so funny! I love your sense of humor! I'm getting a jumbo! Thanks for the comparison!

[@theehoffguyy2090]

I prefer single flaps now cos my chanel maxi single flap can fit ALOT more then my chanel maxi double flap.. The single flap maxi is also ALOT lighter too..

[@yourfriendhollz]

[@CarolSummer]

Awww thanks!

[@CarolSummer]

So glad you are enjoying my videos !!! I hope you'll get the Jumbo one day ! It's so worth it. 😘😘😘

[@myhubbyislouisvuitton4218]

I'd love to know your opinion off the XXL flap handbag. I think it would really suit you (and me 😜). It really doesn't suit everyone but I can see it fitting very well with you.

[@CarolSummer]

Arrrghhh, another bag I drool over 😂😂 I love love the way it looks and would rock it...but when? When I travel and take such a size bag I do want it to be sth I won’t freak out if sth happened. Also wondering whether it will be able to take the weight on days you need to carry more... so many doubts 😂😂😂 But I love it nonetheless!

[@myhubbyislouisvuitton4218]

C A R O L S U M M E R Totally valid points. I'm grateful enough to to have reissue and haven't worn it since Christmas. Lord knows I'd love to own it but would totally become an emotional fool if something happened to it 😂

[@eleanorreyes3055]

Love your video I’m also confuse on both I’m short around 5 ft and heavy and I was thinking about the maxi because of my height both bags look gorgeous on you.

[@DesertGal]

Yay great video, and Adore your sense of humor! Thank you!!!

[@indradjelantik4505]

Loooove the way you talk... ❣❣ i have maxi myself

Love your review and most of all your personalities!

[@nicolalis1157]

i think you re funny , i ll go with the jumbo . Thx for the info

[@brendaortega2808]

Does an iPad Pro 11 inch fit in the jumbo(large size)? Not the maxi

[@adaelbarky3721]

the jumbo looks more better on you though. becasae i also had maxi exchanged it it to jumbo but still loving maxi and looking at you it made me settled on my jumbo more

[@CarolSummer]

It does, doesn't it ! I use it all the time !! And now I'm trying to convince myself to sell the maxi but.... it's hard 😂😂😂😘

[@ValeriaMendoza-xd4xx]

U can buy longer chain in amazon i love the maxi for travel but im petite

[@shekafancy6506]

What type of leather is the jumbo and what type of leather is the maxi also what type of Chanel leather do you recommend?

[@heather5695]

thanks for sharing your video.yes.you right！i got the maxi one.it is too big for me.but i still love even though i just use couple time.

[@CarolSummer]

I have seen a lot of shorter women on IG use it as a briefcase almost, just check some inspo pics on Pinterest and IG, if you make the chain shorter it might work better for you. 😘😘😘

[@heather5695]

Carol Summer Channel thanks.i will try

[@heather5695]

Carol Summer Channel I am 166cm.i think over170cm is good for maxi

[@dr.luvrajsandhar1939]

LMAO I love the laptop example

[@herm555inia]

I’m 5’4 and curvy do you think it would fit me crossbody? The jumbo was a tad long on me probably about 2 inches too long

[@AA-iq9gg]

Hello :) I’ve tried to watch this video a few times now but it doesn’t seem to be working, so I just thought I’d let you know! Your videos are so helpful! Thank you, take care!

Wanna see your comparison between jumbo and maxi but can’t load the video. 😢 Keep on appears something went wrong

[@tbirlon]

Hey Carol, I’ve been trying to view this video since last week and it doesn’t seem to be playing. I see someone else mentioned it below as well. Love your videos and I’m currently deciding between a maxi and a jumbo in the caviar leather so, I’d love to get your opinion in this comparison video!

[@CarolSummer]

This is soooo weird ! I can play it anywhere and have asked people to test it... No worries, I'll film a new one asap ! 😉😘😘😘

[@lindatran7385]

I’m watching it without any issues. Great review Carol. I’m looking for a Maxi but in the 24K yellow gold plated turnlock in lambskin. I believe this vintage model is in a single flap. Your Maxi is gorgeous though. I wished I had bought the reissue first in either medium or large before my jumbo classic flap. Regards Linda.

[@Bearioh]

Hi Carol :) are you able to close the popper in the inner bag?

[@SupaksiriPrakancharoen]

Hi, I just decided to buy a maxi one today (lambskin 2009). Sales assistant is very nice and made great offer. I quite worry about its size but everything will be fine 😉😉 Your video is really helpful for me 😃😃

[@RM-pl5po]

What do you think about the maxi as a work bag? I’m tall too 5’10” and then I wear heels so I think maxi will work perfectly!

[@CarolSummer]

It would look totally bomb !! If you're tall, definitely use it to your advantage ! It is not the lightest bag though...just FYI...

[@Joechonlawit]

HEY Thank you so much I watched it till the end! Really helpful. :)

[@eleanorreyes3055]

For 5ft tall and a it plump is the maxi better

[@vrmomoffour9446]

Please show what fits in each. I looked for WIMB in the maxi, I didn't find.

[@CarolSummer]

Great idea, I'll do that really soon ! 😘😘😘

Dear Carol, thank you for the anwser! have a wonderfull day, regards, Saskia

[@kristen1500]

So is the jumbo chain longer than maxi's chain? Is that why it was so high up when you wore it cross body?

[@CarolSummer]

+Kristen Yes indeed! The Jumbo strap is a lot longer 😉

[@latereasa]

New subbie! Thanks for posting this! I am deciding now lol

[@meaganh08]
