nice compartments October 1, 2008 mindnomad (DC and sometimes new jersey) 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
I just got this bag and when I ordered I was torn between this one and the bigger version of it. It took a while for delivery but, I finally got it today. It is very nice. The material looks and feels very sturdy and there's a lot more room then I thought there was: FYI the laptop area fits my 15.4" laptop (the capability of the screen size to fit this bag was not specified anywhere; and believe me I looked everywhere online). Anyway, there is still room to add a book in the laptop compartment which is the last one (has a lot of padding here). There is another compartment, the middle one, which can fit about 3 folder sized items, and yet another deep compartment in the front with nice zipper/pocket areas. the padding is really comfortable on the straps and the back with "air" circulation noted which I assume is a good thing. Also, note the adjustable straps you see in the picture on each side of the bag; they are extremely useful because when you don't have this bag stuffed with things just tighten it up and it appears to be a smaller bag (which is good for me, since I frequently just carry my laptop). Worth the $35 I paid despite the delayed but free shipping. I think if I would have gotten the bigger version of this bag it would have been too big for my needs. (btw I am replacing a Targus laptop backpack which lasted only about 6 months and now it has a hole that is tearing on a daily basis at the bottom- so if anything I don't recommend targus backpack which I paid $30 for and the material was poor compared to this one and also it is much smaller then this one). This construction feels much stronger and durable then the Targus and I only paid $5 dollars more. Also seems more practical and convenient with the compartments and pockets.
very handy for travel September 16, 2008 J. Colucci (Encinitas, CA United States) 25 out of 27 found this review helpful
I was going to buy a rolling laptop bag, but found this on sale and got it instead. Made my trip so easy! Plenty of room for my laptop and accessories. Plus tons of padding and pockets. I was able to carry extra books, electronics, etc. Sitting in an airplane seat it fit nicely under the seat in front of me and I was able to get to all my toys during the flight. I have used about 6 other laptop bags during travel, but this was definitely the most comfortable, roomy, and easiest to use.
LOVE IT! October 1, 2008 Y. Wang (Cincinnnati, OH) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Even you put heavy stuff in the bag, you put it on your shoulder. It's light. Amazing! I love it.
Swissgear Backpack AWESOME December 12, 2008 J. Wysocki 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Just received my SwissGear Backpack today! Opened the box and wow... It is one really good looking backpack! The picture doesn't do it any justice. The backpack has two side water bottle holders, sun glass holder on strap, cell phone holder on other strap, 3 main compartments (one being the laptop computer pocket). I am gonna use this for school next semester and it large enough to carry 3 or 4 text books and some binders and of course a laptop. The backpack seems like it is well-made and extremely durable, but also very very comfortable. Do not hesitate! Buy this backpack! You won't regret it.
This backpack exeed my quality to price ratio expectation!!! November 2, 2008 Amit Caspi (Chicago, IL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i ordered two of those, one in black for me and one in pink/red for my wife. they have enough space for a 15.4 laptop (who is not more then 10.2" width so if you have those very old laptops you should measure them before). Usually most laptops will be 10-10.2" width. you will also have place for books and notebooks! The quality of the materials are very high!!! and the backpack looks realy good. Both me and my wife are happy with it. :)
