    Great backpack

    Great backpack for moderate/lightweight use. I have both the black and blue versions of this backpack. It's wide enough that it doesn't look like a preschoolers backpack but still small. It's depth is much smaller than an average/normal backpack (which is fine for the function it provides). My laptop fits easily. No real padding to speak of so I usually fold a sweatshirt over the laptop. Water bottle holder on each side and two zippered compartments, one of which has a laptop divider. I don't have anything bad to say about it. Don't expect to abuse it and have it last. Otherwise it should be fine.

    I purchased this bag in 2022 Black Friday sale for mere 11 dollars... This is an excellent product with great quality.Have been using it since last one year now.. purchasing 2 bags for my son and wife now . Its a basic laptop bag with enough pockets and space , which makes is a good personal item carrier during flights as well. Do not expect any fancy stuff...but this is a great lroduct with good quality fabric and zips.

    Great for the price. Wasn't costly so you would think bad quality, but it holds my laptop, tablet, switch lite and cords with no problem. Plenty if compartments and easy to use when flying.

    Got this backpack when it was on sale for $11.99 and it was… AMAZING. I can not think of a more perfect and ideal backpack for college. It has soo many built in compartments, which is very useful. So far I am having a very great and satisfying experience with this backpack. It can carry my laptop, notebooks, pencil pouch, AND my lunch all at the SAME time! It speaks for its original price, I really recommend this product because it’s true to its purpose.

    A really spacious backpack with plenty of compartments with a special compartment for my laptop with enough padding to protect my laptop, it's a really good deal for the price I paid for it and I would recommend this backpack to anyone needing a good laptop backpack, also it fits my 16-in Asus laptop very well.

    Initial impression is excellent. I wont post alot of pictures because the page pictures are honestly great and detailed enough. I ordered the blue one on Black Friday sale and I (wish) I grabbed at least two. Its a good bag! I didnt even get it for my laptop. I got it because I thought it was "a good bag" for my often needs, and I was right. They market as a Laptop bag, but its a good bag for whatever you can find use for. And I would add that the "Blue" color is hard to capture on camera. A very cool and smooth Blue. I cant say how long it will hold up. But I have a good feeling about it, so ill give it benefit of doubt. Yall deserve all these 5-stars.. But I have to say its honestly based on the $12 I scored it for. Nonetheless your brand is officially on my radar. Because I respect good/great products.
