"Roomy, looks great and fits comfortably, but other than that it's no better than average (read: overpriced). Fully exposed zippers have no seam or fabric overhang to keep out the rain, which is a problem for a LAPTOP BAG. I got caught in a light spring shower, and everything inside got wet along the zipper tracks. There wasn't much damage other than papers that warped along the edges, but it should not have happened at all -- especially for a bag designed to carry expensive electronics. Will not use if there's rain in the forecast, and would NOT buy again."

"Great bag, could use a touch more padding as I carry a rather heavy 17 inch laptop."

"I think it is a wonderful bag, very professional and sturdy. I've only had it for a few weeks so far thought so I can't speak about the long term value of the bag yet."

"I borught the backpack for my teenage son. He likes the look and style of the backpack, which is why he picked it out. He states that the bag is spacious and sturdy. Straps feel comfortable on his back."

"I just took this bag on a trip, and it worked so well for me, I was able to store a spare pair of shoes, my tom-tom, with accessories, and so much more . Had absolutely no problems with TSA, except obviously they make you take your laptop out for security reasons. I would recommend this item to anyone needing a little extra storage while traveling."

"I fly twice a week to various places. Including major cities, international (mainly Japan), etc. This bag is great. I have a 17 inch Dell (which sucks, don't buy Dell) and it fits perfectly. It fits my 2 binders, notebook, planner, wallet, "lounge clothes", and my small bag with my toothbrush and other hygiene products, with plenty of room left over. The front pocket is perfect for my passport, phone, PDA, pens, and etc. However, the middle pocket gets a bit small and cramped when you have a lot in the larger pocket. Only downfall. Other then that, I love it. Don't be turned off by the price. I came here looking to spend over $100 on a bag but instead got this bargain. Defiantly recommend it. Oh, and so far I've had it for about a month. Looks like I got it yesterday."

"Solid bag, and lightweight to carry. Use it everyday for bus commuting. Fits laptop, lunch, book, purse, and water bottle. I live in Seattle, so this bag and I are constantly out in the rain - haven't had a problem with anything inside getting wet, despite lack of zipper covers."
