    This is the perfect budget backpack for work, school, or travel. It has plenty of pockets, including two side pockets for water bottles. I’ve used it many times while traveling around the city, and it’s been very convenient.

    9.99 for a backpack

    I purchased this product on a Total membership sale. The total went down to 9.99. This bag is a steal at that sale price. I doubt I would spend more than 20 on it however. Seems great for infrequent use but for heavy/rough usage I would say another bag will last longer. Lots of pockets and places to store items safely. If you just need to get your stuff from place to place every now and then it is perfect. That or if you are gentler with your things than me or my family.

    Wow, I am speechless at how beautiful, compact but spacious this backpack is. It’s the best bag I have bought in a longtime. Eventhough it’s been a little over a month since I bought it. I am loving it every day for school and work. Fits my 15.6 inch laptop and iPad Pro like a champ and I still get to pack snacks and water. If I could give a 10 star I will but I will wait for 6months to update my review to be sure it doesn’t fall apart.

    I purchased this back for the price and because I wanted a smaller bag to carry my laptop. Didnt expect it to be this small. However, its the right size for my 15" laptop and appears to be sturdy enough to handle the surrounding elements. Dont expect to carry a lot of things. Just enough to to get you by like a charger, some snacks and a small water bottle. I like it!

    I have worked in the PC industry since Windows 3.1 and Targus has been an exceptional brand that I and company have always purchased. For the price and quality, there is none better, in my opinion.
