Travelpro Executive ProTM Checkpoint Friendly Computer Backpack "Black"

• Dimensions: L13" x W9" x H17.5"
• Weight: 2.2 lbs.
• Color: Black

I bought this back pack or my husband as a birthday gift , he called it "perfect", he uses it to carry his laptop and other work related things back and forth to his construction site. It appears very well made and has a nice configuration of pockets it looks so much more professional that the sharper image backback he has been using for a while. He hasn't traveled on an airline with it yet, he will be using it on flights, but it appears to be conveinent enough for that. I did a lot of research on line and in stores...this was clearly one of the best buys I found.

First thing first, only reason i didn't give it 5 stars is there is no water bottle holder. I travel and this fits perfectly on my 360 spinner luggage from travel pro (25 inch) since there is a strap in the bag that fits snugly on luggage. it holds all the work and play items in need when i travel (mac, ipad, ipod, cords, bose headset, work folders and make up bag. also holds the extra stuff i get at the airport, magazines, snacks and water.

more room than you need unless you use this as a suitcase. and again the only downfall is i need to place my water in the bag since there is no external holder. what is cool is 2 small external pockets that hold keys, lip balm, snacks etc so you don't need to dig inside. contains an ipod pouch within the bag with an access hole at the top of the bag to the outside for your earphones. would totally recommend!

I travel quite a bit on airplanes and this is the right size as well as not having to take out the computer to get through security makes it easier than normal. Solid construction and the right amount of storage pockets. Very good value for the price.

I just received this as a replacement for a TravelPro backpack that I'd purchased at Staples which fell apart inside (apparently was made by a different company, but they honored their lifetime warranty great customer service!). I want to love this bag. It's very sturdy, looks very solidly made, but...

There is NO WAY you'll fit any 17" laptop in this.

The bag's dimensions are 17.5" tall on the outside, but the computer compartment has a very nicely padded pocket to hold the laptop. As this padded pocket is sewn inside the bag about a half inch off the bottom, it loses a lot of available space. I walked around the office trying different laptops, and none of the 17" or 17.3" would fit inside. The biggest we could get in was a Sony Vaio 15" screen, with outer dimensions of 10"x14", and even then I had to pull the zipper up over the corners in a tight fit.

If you have a 15" or smaller laptop, I recommend this bag. The internal pockets are roomy, the fabric is thick and tightly woven, the zippers are heavy duty, and TravelPro has a lifetime warranty. The "checkpoint friendly" clamshell design is a huge timesaver going through security lines. For anything bigger, keep looking. I'm waiting to see what the company is going to do for me, as their other backpack has similar dimensions. If they say I'm stuck with this, well, then, a coworker of mine is going to have a very nice present, and I'll be shopping for a new bag.
