Ive tried many travel backpacks. None are perfect. This one is no exception. Pros * Relative value for money * Flexible compartments * Main compartment opens fully * Decent size Cons * No sternum strap * Horrible (afterthought) water bottle holder * Almost no structure (will not stand up on its own) * No name zippers * Unpadded laptop sleeve There you have it. Short on money..., not a bad choice. Have a few more bucks, Tomtoc is a better choice in affordable travel backpacks.

I just made an international trip with this and it does hold a lot. Especially if you use vacuum packs to compress your clothing. There are so many pockets I didn’t even use the little ones and often couldn’t remember which pocket held what. The real issue is that out of five flights, there was only one flight where this thing actually fit under the seat. And that was only because I was in the middle section where there were only 3 under seat compartments for 4 seats and nobody was sitting next to me so I got extra space. For the other four flights, this thing fully stuck out so far that I could either straddle it, put my feet under it, or put my feet on top of it. This gets really old when you’re on a 14 hour flight. Again, it does hold a lot. But also be prepared that the usb charging feature may not be as handy as you’d think since the airlines require you to remove all power banks from smart bags. So you can buy the power bank separately and think you’re good to go but then you’ll be digging down into the pouch to remove the power bank before you’re allowed to board so it’s not a feature that’s really worth much. I’m not sorry I got it but I really had no idea how it wouldn’t fit under the seat.

This backpack is now my go to for airplane and car trips. It can be put in overhead bins for airtravel so you dont have to check it in. It has lots of compartments to organize my clothes, computer, books, etc. So far it has held up and seems like a quality product. The only downside is that is does get heavy if you carry it for very long when it is crammed full.

CONs: No rigidity at all, it feels like light fabric. PROs: Well-designed and superior built; the shoe compartment helps a lot. Tons of space; fits well under sit in front. I bought it some 7 months ago and have taken it on 2 long trips, one in the US and one to Europe. On the last trip (14 days) this thing was loaded with 16Kg/35lb of all kinds of stuff including many electronics. Most items were packaged into packing cubes which expedited accessibility to security checking staff in 5 airports. Otherwise, theres too much for X-Ray machines to discern whats inside. Despite feeling lightweight, this backpack performed admirably; not a single stitch popped and the zippers performed without issues. Talking about the zippers you may want to have small carabiners or tiny padlocks to prevent their opening; they tend to open spontaneously. I packed Water Sports Shoes in the shoe compartment and was able to use them during tans-Atlantic flights with the corresponding comfort advantage. Im very happy with the purchase and wholeheartedly recommend it as a carry-on substitute. Its light material allows it to squeeze under the front seat as long as its not packed to the max and under pressure. I did not receive any observations or warnings from airline staff about its size despite its capacity (and weight).

Got this for grandson to use on his class trip, as I figured his regular backpack wont be big enough. It seems like it will be perfect for the job.

Laptop fits well and nice cushioning. Keeps items organized and easy to get to. Like the strap that holds the backpack on travel luggage for ease through airports.

Excellent

This is the best travel backpack. Lots of room an plenty compartments for storage.

Compartments are sized great. Laptop fit perfectly. So soft and secure inside. Sits perfect on my luggage.

Many pockets, easy to access. Handy Co. Puter/tablet pocket is great.
