Higher Ground 13" Laptrap

Higher Ground Laptrap - Notebook carrying case - 13' - redI've been using my 13" Laptrap for about three weeks now and I just leave my computer in it. I did order two extra AC cords--now I have one in my usual computing spot, another for the other area in the house and one I leave at work. Cords fit well in the left hand pocket and I leave my mouse plugged in and stash it in the right hand pocket, then zip both sides up to that connection point. Would have loved a different color, but it saved me some $$ to settle on the blue. I park mine on top of a little scoot table and hang one pocket over the left side. I've yet to use it as it's intended, sitting on the sofa with it sitting on my lap but it's good to know that I can use it that way too. All-in-all, an excellent product and highly recommended.

The coolest case period!!!!! It is everything I wanted. Only 2 pockets for mouse, drives, etc. But just the right amount of space. I am disabled and in a wheelchair and it works great in my lap. I looked long and hard for a case and settled on this case because it met my needs perfectly. Awesome case!!!!!!! Company web site:

Disney Minnie Mouse Large Rolling Backpack - Sweet Sugar

Disney Minnie Mouse Large Rolling Backpack - Sweet SugarI bought this for my 2 year old, who started in her 3k transition class. It is really vibrant and playful looking. My daughter fell in love at first sight! She loves Minnie Mouse. I made a great choice with this one. Usually Disney products are cheap cheap cheap. My daughter drags it upside a lot and it still looks great. She's probably been carrying a month now. Her 3 ring binder fits in there great. It's not a regular size, but not that teeny size either. It fits her full sized binder, her crochet blanket, and a few toys. Love this book bagnailed it!

Famous Stars and Straps Men's The One Backpack

Famous Stars and Straps Men's The One Backpack, Black/Grey, One SizeGreat backpack I like the look of it and quality is good it is a little small tho. Thickness and width is fine it's just a little short I'm 6'1" and it almost looks like a kids backpack on me other than that its a great item

I needed a new backpack for when I start college next term and I couldn't have picked a better one. I've tested the backpack out with my sister's books and it still felt light weight. I can't wait to start College now! Thank you Amazon for great prices on the stuff I need

This was a gift for my daughter. She recently got into famous because of seeing her brother wear the clothes for years. She absolutely loved the back pack. Just wish it were a little bigger, seeing they have so many things to carry to school.

Buzz 4-in-1 Poppy Backpack

Buzz 4-in-1 Poppy Backpack - BlueI bought this bag in black. My husband can use it and not feel weird. Wearing it as a backpack is so comfortable. Also, I can handle my baby easier with a bag on my back and not on my shoulder. Hanging it on the stoller is great. Have not tried using it as a messenger bag. Holds everything I need in place so I don't have to dig around for things. Material is soft and waterproof. I put a sippy cup in the top pocket. The sippy cup leaked and the pocket was full of water but it did not soak through to any other part of the bag. I turned the bag upside down and poured the water out. After 15 minutes the pocket was completely dry. I was amazed. GREAT bag. Will be the gift I give people now when they are having a baby.

I have been using this as a diaper bag backpack for 9 months. I love it because I have to kids under 2 and there is plenty of space for all of their things. The only thing I would like to see different would be a spot for sippy cups/bottles/water bottles on the outside of the bag. Other than that, love it. It still looks great after 9 months of daily use.

Initially I was thrilled with the bag in particular the different straps enabeling you to hang / carry the bag in various ways. However, once I came to use the bag it became a real "faff" to get things out of the main compartment. When you unzip the bag the front flops down to act as the changing mat (great) but all your stuff is behind a mesh compartment with a zip 3/4 of the way down it. I just found this a pain when you just wanted to get stuff out quickly or from the bottom of your pile (of a million and one things you have to carry about with a baby) due to the zip not being at the top. Other than that it was a very well made bag and I liked the compartment at the top which I used for phone and wallet when hung on my stroller. I'm sad to say though I have exchanged for a smaller, simpler diaper bag with no faffy mesh inner.

Bags for LessTM Extra Large Sports Duffel Bag, 23", Black

Bags for LessTM Extra Large Sports Duffel Bag, 23', BlackIt really is difficult to judge the size of things on the computer -so I am not blaming the seller in any way.

The bag itself is a very nice bag. It seems well made and looks very nice. It just is smaller than I thought it would be. As I had planned on using the bag for a mixed martial arts class, I needed something very large to tote around multiple pairs of boxing gloves, shoes, pads, etc.

Luckily I was able to find a bag large enough to fit all that stuff and then some. Forgot to return this bag in a timely manner, so I will hopefully find a use for it somewhere down the line. For now, it sits in the box.

Ful Playback Backpack

Ful Playback BackpackI bought this backpack for college. In the last few months, I've been using it every day for school. It's the perfect backpack for me. Personally, I love bags with lots of extra pockets for things like pens, tissues, ear-buds, and other school things. This one has a good amount of them.

The largest compartment will fit a 14", maybe 15", laptop along with some notebooks. But that would be about it. It isn't a very large compartment and there's no internal laptop sleeve. The smaller of the two big compartments has space for cards, a keyring clip,and other nicknack things you might need during a school day. The small compartment is a good size for your lunch, it'll hold a sandwich, a small bag of chips, and some small snack items easily. it's not insulated though.

The water bottle pocket is a bit small and shallow for my liking. However, it'll still hold a 16oz water bottle or Thermos fairly easily, the elastic is pretty strong.

The backpack is also super light but very durable. I can put my laptop in there and still be able to walk a fair distance. It's also good for trips for food shopping. There's enough space to fit a good amount of food in the biggest compartment. Best of all, it's pretty much waterproof. Walking home from school, I don't really have to worry about my laptop or materials getting wet. I wouldn't throw a bucket of water on it to test it though.

I bought this for my 7yo daughter for school. We both love this backpack. We bought the red and it is a great shade. The backpack appears to be very durable and of good quality. My daughter loves all the pockets. The backpack is a good size ie. it is big for a 7yo but not too big. Highly recommend this backpack.

DURAGADGET Blue Ultra protection Water resistant laptop / notebook / netbook / UMPC carry case / ba

DURAGADGET Blue Ultra protection Water resistant laptop / notebook / netbook / UMPC carry case / bag / sleeve for Alienware M17x , ASUS-LAMBORGHINI VX5, Dell Studio 1747,Novatech B17, Novatech X65Although this sleeve is advertised as able to carry an alienware m17x, it can't. My m17x R3 does not fit at all, and my friend's new 17" Dell XPS won't fit either. If your laptop is a thin widescreen laptop, it should be fine (i.e. a macbook), but if you've got something thick then I'd suggest another sleeve.

In terms of quality, the sleeve looks really nice. There isn't anything jutting out, and the zipper is high quality and difficult to wear down. The cloth is very smooth and doesn't have any loose threads, so no lint gets into the laptop. It's also water resistant, so a coffee spill won't damage anything. The cloth is difficult to tear apart, as I've tested with some scissors and a few quick runs with a knife.

I give it 3/5 stars, primarily because it doesn't fit some advertised laptops. Anything smaller will fit perfectly, however. My old 15.4" HP laptop fits like a glove. It's a great price, but if it's too small then it's obviously not worth it.

High Sierra 1830-Cubic Inches Murray Daypack

High Sierra 1830-Cubic Inches Murray DaypackBought this for my 10 year old. It is sturdy and has good strong zippers ! My only negative was that I thought it would be a little deeper (from front to back) but he can fit his school papers, 1 binder,a couple library books and his lunch. It wouldn't work well for someone to carry more than that. Was a little crammy when we stuffed shoes and snowpants in as well, this winter.

Great backpack. I love all the pockets, it's nice and roomy, and THE ZIPPERS DONT GET STUCK!!!!!!!(-: I also love the color! I got it in the zebra print.

Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6X Rolling Luggage

Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6x Rolling Flower Luggage,Lime Green/Hot Pink,One SizeThis luggage is very cute and a good size for packing a little girls stuff. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it has only two hard walls. One on top and and one on the bottom. The two sides of the bag has only plastic walls. It is probably because the side walls are a little curved-in to copy the butterfly shape. This bag does not look as much attractive when it is not full. I wanted to give it as a gift and I had to fill it up with shipping plastic wraps so that it does not look collapsed and wrinkly.

This item is totally adorable!!! But the only way it will look like the picture is if it is stuffed completely full! It has plastic reiforcement on the bottom but the top is just partial, not going across the total width of the bag, so there is no structure to keep it square. The sides just collapse in. This would make it dificult fo a toddler to zip it up. The handle will stay in the up position if you let go of it, put it does moves freely up and down so as a child is pulling the luggage, the handle moves up and down. It didn't help that it was shipped in a plastic bag and came completely flat. Very dissapointed for the price!

Buy Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6X Rolling Luggage Now

This was purchased as a gift for my daughter because she was taking a week long trip to grandma and grandpas house. Pulling it out of the box revealed a very cutely colored rolling luggage. It has some pockets for smaller items and plenty of internal space for clothes and other necessities for a child. Unfortunately, it feels cheap. The extendable handle does not lock in place, which has annoyed my daughter as she tries to pull it along. The handle will just collapse at the smallest amount of force. After just one week of use the colors don't seem as vibrant. I am sure it will last plenty of time and my daughter loves the wheels which allow her to pull it along like mommy and daddy. However, I would not purchase this item in the future as I am confident I could find a better quality item for a similar price (the price was great, especially since it was a gift).

I got this suitcase for my little girl (5) before our Christmas trip. She had fun naming her owl and packing her "accessories" in the outside pockets. It is quite roomy--all of her belongings for a 7 day trip were able to fit in it. This luggage helped her to be much more independent during our travels--including a 6-hour layover in the airport. My only complaint is that it fell on the front a couple times and my daughter started pulling it that way for a minute or two and the mesh on the front pocket wore away in a couple spots. Other than that I haven't had any issues with durability.

Meaning.... we took this on a month long trip and it got manhandled from vehicle to vehicle, toddler playing with it prior to trip and packing/unpacking stuff from it all month. It held up well to constant use. My 3.5 yr old loves HER suitcaseI have to keep it in the closet when not in use, as she wants to roll it around and put all her toys in it otherwise. It holds quite a bit of clothes, I packed it 2 weeks full of baby clothes (as we took our 4 month old with us). On the return trip we packing it with the toddler stuff and it held easily a week's worth, plus some toiletries. I'm sure airlines are harder on bags then I am, so based on what I can see in the manufacturing of the bag, it could hold up to being thrown around a few times, but it IS a child's bag and it IS made from softer materials then a "grown up" bag. I would buy again, and would recommmend.

Retro flower power hippie inspired backpack

Retro flower power hippie inspired backpackThis bag is SUPER CUTE! I love it! It is exactly what I was looking for and I think it looks even better in person than in the pictures. I have had so many compliments out of it. I will say though, I'm not using this as a "bookbag", just as a substitute purse when I'm going on a trip and don't want to carry a regular purse. I do love it but I don't know how durable it would be if I had to lug around a bunch of books in it.

Briggs & Riley BRX Exchange 20 inch Duffel

Eco Duffel Color: Black

Eco Duffel Color: BlackI bought this for my Dad because he is a truck driver and needed a new over night bag and his birthday was coming up. It looked really small when I got it, but it is bigger than it looks. I am really skeptical about the bottom on the outside, though. It is made of straw. Yep. Straw. Like the straw mats you take to the beach with you. There is a cloth liner on the inside, so it isn't straw on the inside, but I rally don't like that. I was going to return it because of that, but my Dad's birthday is too soon to get a new one.

Baggallini Urban Backpack

Baggallini Urban Backpack, Dark OliveWell, maybe you are the type of person who buys a bag for every occasion and you don't need your bag to last very long, but I am not that wealthy. I wear a back pack purse everyday to work or play and I need it to last at least six months. This bag is wearing out. The fabric on the bottom corners is frayed and you can now see the white liner showing through. Also the zippers seldom stay closed at the bottom of the bag. The bottom of the zippers usually rip open on their own about an inch from the bottom. There is an inner lining that keeps things from falling out, but it is annoying. It is light weight which is great, but I am not happy that it is wearing out so quickly.

This is a great bag but before you buy make sure you understand that the interior is SMALL. It won't hold a wallet you have to empty your wallet into the spaces it provides. It will only hold flat things and maybe a small makeup case or something of that nature. Great bag for travel but not for everyday use. Unless you have nothing but flat things. :) However it has the excellently cool feature of the zippered strap it can be zippered and sling over the shoulder or unzip and be a backpack. very cool.

I purchased a Baggallini UBC227 Urban Backpack in dark olive crinkle nylon. The quality of the material and the craftmanship were excellent. The color of the bag was as pictured. Unfortunately, it was not as spacious as I'd imagined it would be, given the physical description. Length and height were just right, but depth was lacking. It was not possible for me to fit all of my daily necessities in the bag at one time. Since I only carry with me what I really need, it's important that everything I need fits.

I bought this bag to use on a five week trip to FL. I wanted a bag that looked good enough for any occasion but converted to a backpack when I was more active. This bag was great except when I warmed up and began perspiring, the dye from the zipper rubbed off on my clothing. I do like the security of the zippers and the magnetic clasp at the top. Be careful though...I laid my bag down to put on my jacket on a restaurant table where we had just ate dinner. I was very surprised when we got back to the room and I found a fork stuck to the front of my bag! The magnetic clasp is very strong!

It's perfect! Lightweight, perfect size for everyday and will be great for travel. Two zippers on the outside and lots of slots on the inside for everything you carry in your purse. Also, the straps can be adjusted to wear as a shoulder bag or a backpack to SAVE your back!

Microsoft Edge Messenger Bag for 17.3" Laptops (Orange Trim)

Microsoft Edge Messenger Bag for 17.3' LaptopsI loved everything about this bag, for about 2 weeks. Then the material started to fray from the edge binding, any area that I used to capacity. First, was the water bottle holder. I only used a small bottle. Then I noticed the fraying, so I stopped using that pouch. A few weeks later, the fraying began on the main back panel around the corners; and from there it just got worse, so I returned it to the store. Too bad, I loved the front pouch perfect for MP3 player. This is a well designed, bag except for the quality of the construction.

I ordered this attractive laptop messenger bag intending to use it to port around my new HP dv7t 17" wide-screen laptop. Unfortunately I read the wrong dimensions the entire bag dimensions instead of the inner compartment dimensions which are listed separately. The inner compartment dimensions of this bag are: 15.5"(w) x 10"(d) x 1.75"(h). This falls considerably short of the dimensions of the dv7t laptop: 16.35"(w) x 10.8"(d) x 1.25"(h). So despite claiming that the bag fits most 17" laptops I had to return this bag.

In the short time I had this bag though I was impressed by the materials used to construct it. It feels very well made and despite my not being able to keep the bag I was confident that this messenger bag was up to the task of everyday use. The handle, strap and zippers felt sturdy and well attached. The inner cushioning is substantial and I felt that my laptop would survive bumps and drops inside this bag.

Looks wise what attracted me most to this bag was that it doesn't look too professional or too much like a grungy student laptop bag. The styling is nicely in-between and I would feel appropriate carting this bag into my workplace in a suit or in more casual environments.

One of my favorite features of this bag is the orange lining. The entire inner compartment of this bag is lined in orange making finding cords, jump drives, pens or anything else a cinch. For anyone who's owned a black-on-black laptop bag and struggled to find dark colored peripherals inside their bag this will be a nice feature.

I'm a bit disappointed that I won't be able to use this bag but otherwise would recommend it to anyone with a compatible laptop.

I ordered this bag because of a co-worker's positive remarks. This is one of the few options available for a 17" laptop. Travel out of the country made this bag extremely useful. Easy to carry, lots of compartments to store cables, external hard drives, and cd's. Places for business cards, personal cards and supplies, as well as travel documents. I would recommend this bag.

It's a really nice bag, but online it said it was for a 17.3 inch screen. I just bought a new Toshiba 17.3 inch screen laptop and it doesn't fit!! The tag on the bag says it fits "most 17 inch screens", so I think online it was kind of deceiving. Then there's another tag on the same bag that says the device should be 15.5 inches. I don't understand why this has become so confusing for the customer!

The North Face Big Shot Backpack

The North Face Big Shot Backpack - green, one sizeI have only had the backpack for about a month, and it has proven very versatile. My primary use up to this point has been for school. I am an engineering major and often carry around a lot of textbooks. Not only does the Big Shot provide plenty of room. It also distributes the weight well. I have had four fairly large textbooks in the large compartment (about the capacity of what I could stuff in there), and I did not feel like the pack put an inordinate amount of weight on my shoulders. The laptop compartment is also padded very well, so I feel like my laptop is always safe.

I have also used the pack for a trip. It served as a day pack and as my general travel pack for the flight to my location. The pack works great. The to exterior pockets fit my Nalgene bottles well and secure them when I am moving about. Additionally, the pack was able to carry all of the necessities for a day of hiking.

The only downside that I have found is the lack of organization in the pockets. The main compartment has an organizer which is pretty helpful for school (pens, pencils, calculator, etc). However, the pockets are oddly sized for putting trail gear (mess kit, bug spray, extra socks, etc). The two front zippered pockets are helpful for these things, but they too lack the organization. They open up to two separate overlaying pockets that are almost as wide as the front of the bag.

Overall, I would recommend this bag to people looking for versatility. It serves really well as a school/work backpack. It is comfortable and fairly largely sized, so it also crosses over into a day pack / short weekend pack very easily. The great versatility and size are a huge plus.

Mountainsmith Ether 20 Pack

Mountainsmith Ether 20 Mountainlight Backpackit's practical to have a bag that can protect itself when it rains. i think the shape of this bag looks pretty much like a purse that I'd use for daily lives anyway (with or without the belt). i like that i can trust putting my valuables in this bag.

I am thoroughly pleased with this bag. It is light weight, comfortable and has so many convenient pockets. I would definitely recommend buying strapettes to accompany it, especially if you are a woman. The across-the-shoulder strap can be uncomfortable, and get in the way. The side straps are very comfortable, and work well on my hips. My one issue: the stitching inside the first pocket (with cell phone and key holders, etc.), started unraveling very quickly after I purchased and used the product. Otherwise, I have complete satisfaction--it is fast, convenient, stylish, and has a fabulous waterproofing system.
