Customer Ratings & Reviews

Build: The backpack is quite sturdy. I used it extensively every day for about two months, though I only carried my laptop in it about half the time. No rips or tears yet. The zippers are still holding up, even under the considerable strain of heavy textbooks. One thing that concerns me is the meshed compartment right in front of the laptop area, which almost always interferes with the placement of books with sharp edges, or spiral bound notebooks. I've walking in some severe downpours with this backpack on, and I haven't found any of its contents to be wet. This is not a guarantee of water-proofing, but I'm saying your stuff will be reasonably protected with some due care (read: don't go swimming with it). Storage: Be advised that there's not going to be much room for books once you put in a laptop (I own a Dell Inspiron 600m). Especially hardcovers. Even without a laptop, you can't fit more than one 300+ page textbook and a couple of thin notebooks without having much difficulty in closing the main compartment. Then again, this isn't being sold as a trekking bag, so this shouldn't be much of a concern. Before I forget: pockets! Lots of compartments and pockets in this backpack. I use the main area for the laptop and my notebooks. The two pockets inside the main compartment hold my mouse and power adapter, along with my graphing calculator and a Moleskine. The smaller compartment holds headphones, and a daily planner. The smallest front pocket holds writing instruments, spare batteries, a USB thumbdrive, and a (Maglite) flashlight. The side pockets are great for bottles of water. So far, I haven't found any use for the meshed area, though I suspect loose sheets will fit nicely there. Comfort: The padding on the straps is quite a relief, because the sheer weight of a laptop in addition to some books and a bottle of water can cause significant strain on the shoulders. The handle on top also seems quite strong, which is usefully for short-range transportation, a.k.a lifting. There is a port for headphones through the front pocket, for those people who like their MP3/CD player out of their reach while listening (I don't). Overall: It's a great backpack, surprisingly sturdy for a laptop backpack. The material is actually more resistant to wear than my last (academic) backpack. Definitely a good value for money,

It's a crazy good bag for my laptop,tablet, mouse, keyboard and headphones for travels and for work school I recommend it and with all of my items I still have enough space for more stuff. Ps does mess with the back of your hoodie and shirt (pulls up over time) buts it's still good.

Love my backpack. It is very roomy! I fits my laptop, accessories, shoes and lunch.

I like it but I would be more happy if you add security features

Lightweight and plenty of room, plenty of pockets and comfortable to wear

Works great for my son. Hold the computer and accessories easily. Comfortable to carry and not too heavy even when filled with stuff.

We bought this for my kids to use at school. Stands up to the weight of books and binders as well as the wear and tear of children using it.

I got this for my computer but has ended up being my every day back and forth to work back. Love it!

Excellent thread for useful and good quality of material

i got this bad boy 15 years ago and i still use it.. but this is a bit updated bag.. just a different material but yea it looks good. i replaced my old one because , i had some extra cash.. yea the bag was still fine go, going strong, no rips or broken zipper after 15 years of abuse. of course it was worn and showing its age and discoloration after many washed, uses , but hey, they had a sale for this bag and being happy with my old one.. i bought another.

Decent bag, strong material, decent size. Would recommend

Oh! this Bag pack is so handy and appropriate both for the laptop and the travel. I am making the most use of it, both to my work and my travel. It fits all my travel needs for a 2-day trip. I highly recommend everyone to have this Bag Pack if you are looking for one to buy.

Good size. Still can fit enough in there without it being too much. Shoulders feel good when i put more than usually in there. I came from a 19" book bag that i used to pile things in just because it had space. Your bag can become a duitcase if its too big, so i got this one and ive been learning to pack lighter.

This is exactly what is in the picture. Great quality

Great value for carrying your daily necessities. Well made.

Bought this bag to use for school and business. Bag quality is great and would recommend to anyone looking to buy a computer bag

I wanted a backpack for vacation that was flexible enough to carry my laptop/charging chord, other charging chords, my IPad, as well as be roomy enough for a spare camera lens and a water bottle for hiking. This backpack worked perfectly with lots of separate dividers and pockets.

This item was a gift which was returned. Think I will gift batteries next time

Nice quality computer back back I checked around, this is a great price. It works great. The item was in stock at my local store.
