> 3 dayThe Powaiter Carry-on Travel backpack is all business. It looks professional and is designed to organize and meet all of your packing needs. I love how it opens up flat like a suitcase. When you unzip the main compartment, youll see the top side has two same-sized zippered compartments -- one mesh and one waterproof. The main compartment meanwhile has a small zippered pocket for valuables and a zippered pocket where you can put a power bank to connect with a cord that leads to a USB port on the outside of the backpack for easy phone charging. The main compartment holds the 3 packing cubes and shoe bag that comes with the backpack (*note -- these are not compression bags). It should be enough space for up to a 2 or 3 day trip depending on how you tend to pack. You can expand the size of the main compartment by unzipping one of the outside zippers. The front of the backpack features a smaller compartment that has a dedicated space for a laptop and slots for pens and a phone, and a larger and a smaller zippered pocket for valuables. Theres also two zippered pockets on the outside of the front of the backpack and one zippered pocket on the bottom third of the back of the bag. So many secure pockets! Theres a side pocket for a water bottle, a strap for putting around a luggage handle and adjustable buckles to compress the main compartment and make it less bulky. The backpack can also convert to a duffel by stowing the straps away in a zippered pocket in the back and using the side handle. In terms of comfort, the back of the backpack is padded and has breathable mesh. The shoulder straps are wide and cushioned and there is a chest strap to keep the backpack from swaying. While full of really smart features, the backpack is missing two things I wish it had: a waist belt to keep the weight off your shoulders and at least one locking zipper to keep a wallet extra secure. When I packed for a 3-day trip, the backpack weighed about 17 pounds. My pet peeve when it comes to traveling is having sore shoulders from too heavy of a bag. The Powaiter carry-on backpack was comfortable enough going through an airport. However I wouldnt want to wear it for hours on end.

> 3 dayThe bag itself is great, but the laptop placement being in the front makes it pull on your shoulders in an awkward way for everyday use (not full for traveling).

> 3 dayThis is perfect for those short work trips when I need my big laptop and a change of clothes. There are pockets, zippers, snaps and buckles everywhere (sounds like a song!). Its even expandable so you can add a day, or bring home a gift! The laptop slides in easily with a hook&loop strap to secure it so getting it out for airport security is easy. The other end opens completely with a full zipper making it easy to access your clothes. There is even an elastic strap to hold things in place. There is a handle on the side so you can carry it like a standard laptop case. Snaps, straps, and adjustments are the standard variety and seem adequate. It also comes with separate bags (cubes) if you really need to keep things organized. There is even a USB port on the outside that connects to your device inside-unique feature that I may never use - but it shows that the designer considered actually using this in the real world! It is actually stylish but would be nice if it came in more colors. This is a great product, very well made and highly recommended.

15-11-2024I really like travel backpacks to use as carry-on bags. The design enables you to fit a lot and because you can wear it on your back it is easier to carry through crowded airports even when its full and kind of heavy than a small wheeled suitcase. The color of this is also really nice - a medium grey that works well for both business travel and personal use.

> 3 dayI originally selected this backpack for my son to go to Science Camp. I was impressed when it arrived by the quality of the pack, as well as the countless compartments. This also comes with packing travel cubes, which I absolutely love. There is a charging port to place an internal battery pack into, to charge your devices safely while on the go. The shoulder straps are padded and comfortable, and there is an extender zipper to maximize space if needed. It zips out about 3 to make the pack even bigger. This is a sleek, well-structured and high quality bag. It would work perfectly for any type of trip, from a day to a week or more. I would absolutely recommend this pack to others and feel that the price point is more than fair for the quality of the item received. It competes with much more expensive bags of this same style.

> 3 dayThis backpack opens up like luggage and has plenty of room for at least 3 days of clothing, laptop and other necessary material. Dimensionally suitable as a carry-on too making it ideal for those short trips when you dont want to check a bag. The convenience of the backpack straps cannot be overstated as it makes this easy to transport and also frees up hands. The included cubes are a nice bonus, but honestly havent really adopted the whole cube bag packing philosophy. The backpack represents a good value even without the cubes.

> 3 dayYou may call it something different but if you are a caregiver of someone you know what Im talking about. The go bag is all the stuff you absolute have to have with you before you can leave the house with the person you take care of in order to handle medical needs, bodily needs, and keep them calm and hopefully happy. When youre a mom with an infant or toddler its typically not to hard, you have a diaper bag with the necessities. When you have medical needs, and care for disabled parents one with physical health issues one with dementia and major medical as well however you need a bag with a lot of space and pockets for organization but dont want to infantilize them with a giant obvious diaper bag. This is perfect especially with the 4 included cubes I can have them prepacked with each persons needs, like a change of clothes, rescue meds, fidget toys or other activity, charging cables, headphones, portable chargers, a no mess craft (think crochet), plus then each of our folders at the ready if for a medical appoint or emergency trip to hospital. It then takes just a matter of minutes to grab the needed cubes toss them in the bag along with any electronics or a snack that maybe needed and we are ready to go nothing forgotten. In the nearly 10 years of our situation this has been the first time I have not needed multiple products to have a go bag for us. Ive been through diaper bags and backpacks, even duffle bags. all fell short. This eventually may have flaws I find with a hospital run for example, but as of right now, this hands down is the best bag Ive found and at a great price too! Ill definitely be recommending it to friends and other caregivers.

Greater than one weekWhat an incredible bag. The quality feels excellent and durable. Puts my other bags to shame. It has a good strap on the back that lets in sit firmly on top of my roller carryon bag. The backpack straps slide nicely into a zipper pocket on the top of the bag so they arent in the way when used as luggage. Many zippered pockets on the outside both front and back as well as inside. Expands with a zipper like regular luggage. Two separate compartments inside. One for a laptop and the larger for clothes, etc. Included is 4 zipper bags for organizing clothes, toiletries, shoes. Great looking. Incredibly versatile. Best bag that I have ever had.

15-11-2024This is travel bag that is perfect size for a carry on bag in airplane. Unline other bags, this product comes with several packing boxes including shoebox and wetbag. Unfortunately my bag was missing one medium sized packing box. This bag has hidden straps on th back that you can assemble and use it to wear the bag traditional way. There is handle on the side as well. The bag itself feels sturdy enough to handle most of your stuff. There are various pockets inside and outside of the bag that you can use for various purposes. I like that it even had the hidden pocket that was perfect for storing wallet or passport. Overall I am satisifed with this product and only reason I gave 3 stars was that it was missing one packing box. If you need reasonably priced travel bag that comes with packing boxes, then you should consider this product.

> 3 daySo I got this to be an emergency kit bag that I can grab and run. The back is padded great for long wear. The straps are generous with plenty of room to go around my shoulders comfortably at 250lbs. It’s tight across the bust but that’s not their fault, my bust is 57”. I checked through the stitching and found no gaps or messed up lines. I do wish the zippers were metal and had rings to be lockable. The included sorting bags are awesome, I’m using one for solar power banks, one for emergency clothing, one for a small camping stove, folding bucket, and cooking/eating items. There is clearly one that would be a shoe bag, and another that might work out great as a med kit, although I’m stuffing in a much more personalized one. I was also able to fit in an emergency crank power radio/flashlight, a second flashlight, binoculars, and emergency blankets, along with so many other things. You can really stuff this thing to the gills. I can’t speak for how well it will travel, the way I’ve filled it up. It’s bulgy all over now. And it’s too soon to tell about durability, until I’ve tried hauling it all over the place just to see how it holds up. I do think for the price I got a good deal here, and I’m pretty happy with it for what I’m using it for.
