Sturdy back pack

Great for everything

Great laptop backpack

Excellent backpack

Great bag for the money

Got this bag for my son in middle school. We were tired of investing in character bags that fell apart. Straps have nice padding and can be adjusted. Wish there were other colors to choose from but black is classic. Lots of storage space and padded area for laptop.

I love this bag because it has so many different compartments and great padding to protect my laptop. It also fits over luggage handles which is very convenient. The zippers on this bag are terrible though. They are very slippery and do not stay closed. It's awful when I am traveling because the zippers will slide open and by the time I notice I have no idea if something has slipped out of my bag. I cannot even get clips or anything to hold them together because there aren't any holes in the pulls to put them through. I thought maybe my bag was a lemon but checked others at my local Sam's and they were all the same. It's a great bag otherwise.

Like all of the other one-star reviews, it was the zippers for me. They literally NEVER stay zipper if my laptop is in the bag. The second I pick it up they unzip and not just a little bit either, full unzip. Almost flung a MacBook Pro across the room when I picked up the bag and it completely unzipped.

Parents of college bound kids...these backpacks are excellent for heavy loads of books & have a well padded laptop pocket. Both of our kids used them 4 years of high school & one as far back as 8th grade, as well. The only reason we replaced them was that a zipper broke on a smaller pocket & one strap broke on the other. Both after carrying for more than 5 years. Both have graduated college & still use them all of the time for work, travel & carrying laptops to local coffee shops. They're also affordable!!

I am writing this on my new laptop that just got dumped on the concrete driveway. If there is ANY breach in the zipper on the "TSA" compartment, the weight of your items will meet no resistance at all as they unzip the entire thing and fall right on the ground. I knew about this and tried to keep the zippers together, but couldn't see in the dark and so this is what I get for buying this bag. The bag has some other attributes that aren't bad, but it's also very unbalanced and constantly falls over. I completely regret purchasing it, and will be taking it back to Sam's Club.
