At 1st thought wouldn't hold 17" laptop, but the helpful assoc showed me the laptop sleeve was adjustable, so it holds from a 11" to a 17" laptop very securely . I also noticed the next largest compartment could hold another 17" laptop , as well. There is also a myriad of pockets & sleeves in the accessory compartment. This is my new gig bag for my sound engineer electronics. Very convenient when I ride my Harley! ( I just recommend Velcro to hold down the adjustment loops or they"ll beat you to death at highway speeds!)

Beats Swissgear 17" backpacks

Went to my local Best Buy today to get a 17 inch laptop backpack for my new MSI GT70 2PC Dominator 895 that I also bought through my local Best Buy. I first settled on a Swissgear Ibex whom when I called said it would fit my laptop. So I bought it, and when I got home and put my laptop in it, it didn't fit. I took it back not 10 minutes later. This time bringing my laptop to test bags with it to make sure I found one that fit. I finally settled on this Samsonite bag, which is built nicely. Although being a previous Swissgear owner, I wished that I could have gone for another, due to the fact that I am sure we all know how durable they are, how well built and rugged they are, how strong they are as well. However, knowing that Samsonite was another great brand, and the quality of this bag is very close to the Swissgear Ibex that I was looking at previously. I went with it. Not to mention, I got it at less than half price! $100 backpack on sale at the local store for $68, then price matched at new egg for $45. I must say, I am very happy with both this backpack, and with Best Buy's price match guarantee!

I took this bag with me to Paris for a business meeting and have not stopped using it since. Holds all my gear with easy access and still provides room for a change of clothes for the gym. I can fit enough to take a toiletry bag and another change of clothes to be used after a shower. I have no trouble finding what I need inside due to it exceptional organization.
I carry a full-size laptop for work and a Chromebook for personal use and the adjustments make it easy to have a perfect fit for either device. I still can carry my Nexus 7 with no trouble at all regardless of which laptop I am carrying.
It is a very comfortable bag with good padding and comfortable straps. I really find the bag to be top notch.

I wanted a single pack to hold my 17" laptop, cameras, scanner radio, cables, etc. - all together, about 15 lbs. of gear. I found this to be a reasonable solution for an acceptable price and bought it off the shelf at my local store. I like the flaps which fold over to protect my laptop, there is a loop to slip over the handle of a roll-around suitcase, & several large pockets to store gear. There is 1 pocket which hangs into the main compartment that to me seems less than handy, but I use it for snacks & it keeps my cookies up top where they don't get smashed! The shoulder straps & overall size don't make it very comfortable to me as a backpack, (I'm 6'3" & 200 lbs.), but I never intended to use it that way unless in an emergency. On the other hand, the padded handle on top seems strong enough for lugging around & the shoulder straps hang fairly close to the pack when carried this way so are not too annoying. The zippers & seams appear strong enough to last.

Bought this because I needed something sturdy and comfortable for my long days at university. So far I love it. Lots of compartments. The ones that are lines with microfiber are really nice for electronics with screens.

I needed to replace my computer bag which was wearing out and really not adequate for everything I needed to carry. A friend of mine purchased the identical bag for his laptop and was showing it to me and I inquired where he got it. When he told me at Best Buy, I went to the local Best Buy and got one for my replacement. I use it travelling and when I go on mission trips in the US or to South Sudan it will provide the protection for my computer as well as peripheral hardware and adapters that I need to take along. It is sturdy and provides adequate space for all my electronic needs. I actually got it on sale, so it was really a bargain.

Never really had a good backpack ...... until now!!! I wanted a backpack that was sturdy enough that I could lug my laptop/work belongings & gym clothes to and from the office as well as use it for business trips. One that was and wasn't too business looking. The numerous pocket, the breathable feature and most of tall the sturdiness of the ENTIRE body makes this one of the best backpacks I've owned for work. It's been a month and I have not found one flaw yet and actually don't think that I will find any. Great buy that will last very long.
A:I have encountered no issues with the zippers as long as i don't overfill the compartments. When i do then the zippers can be more difficult to close.
