    Do not waste your money. So it’s been 1 and a half week and the side of it completely ripped open creating a large hole about 8 inches long. This is ridiculous. Extremely disappointed.

    Again this is my second targus bag. Since the price is less the quality is low. Add some money and go gor a quality product if you have laptops and ipads to protect. This bag is just for light use.
