Customer Ratings & Reviews

hi, i look at the great reviews and i was about to buy it, but then i noticed the maximum screen size that the bag could hold (15.4 i think). for those of you that have this bag, do you think it could fit a 16 in screen despite the specifications that are given?

Full time graduate student who works full time. This bag is excellent to transition between each. I recommend everyone switching to a laptop backback to consolidate books and laptop.

Tons of room, lots of pockets. Have only used it for a couple of days so far, so I can't offer a review about its durability. If it lasts a long time and the zippers don't break, it would be worth 5 stars.

Price is too high but it is good option for long term use.

Looks good and love the many pockets to separate items.

Good backpack it has helped me carrying my laptop daily

3 of the 6 people in our family now have one and my daughter wants me to get one for her, too. so far we have all been satisfied with this product.

can't think of anything bad to say about this backpack.it is stout well built and comfy to carry around.the price was a little to high

I was worried that the airlines would say it was to large to be considered a personal item. At least with Delta they have not said anything to me about bring this as well as a carry on suitcase.

Overall I'm happy with it. However, my old backpack had a more solid base and I could set it down anywhere and it would stand by itself. This one falls over so you have to lean it against something.

Anyone who carries gear and a laptop should have this.

Bought it on sale for 60. It's a good buy my one complaint is you can't use the computer pocket for much else and the Way the binder pocket is shaped it's hard to get them out

I lone this. it is comfortable easy to use and easy to access everything I need to.

I bought this for my son, who is at university. He's very happy with the backpack.

My 15.6" laptop doesn't fit in the special compartiment for laptops in this backpack.

I wanted a backpack to haul my stuff the quarter mile to and from work each day. The good news is my back doesn't hurt. The bad news is I now have marks on my inner biceps from where the bag digs in constantly. If you have a smaller frame, the shoulder straps may do you in.

I loved this bag at first, and the build quality seemed pretty good. After having it a little over a year and a half though (purchased Jan. 7th 2015), the stitching on the bottom has started to come loose to the point where things such as my laptop power cord are now exposed. This is just from normal daily use commuting by car and bus to work and some out of town traveling.

I bought this bag about 3.5 years ago after I had bought a decent bag from Ogio that was ripping apart. My expectations were high for a swiss gear bag. I used it for my laptop which is 15 inches, sizable, but still within the limits suggested. a few weeks ago, the zipper on the laptop section became undone, the chain from one of the zippers was bent and let the zipper out. I could not get it zipped up again. I tried calling swissgear but I was out of warranty and they would not even touch the bag, I offered to pay for repair. Had to get it fixed at a seamstress for 20 bucks, and not sure how long the zipper will last as they didnt put a new zip in, but rather just fixed the old one. Either way if it wasnt for that I would be happy with this bag, but when you pay for a quality backpack, you expect it to last. I had a Jansport bag for 12+ years before my ogio backpack and that still was going strong, but I decided to get a better bag because it was so old.

A decent backpack for a laptop for the price...However, I was not impressed with the service at the pineville location

After 6 months of use this one had 2 spots where the seam let loose. Previously Swiss Gear has served us well. This one fell apart quickly.
