SwissGear Cecil 5505 Laptop Backpack, Dark Grey/Black, 18-Inch

This is not my first Swiss Gear backpack so I had high expectations for when I bought this one. The pads on the shoulder straps are great and while I ran from terminal to terminal at the Dallas Airport I did not feel uncomfortable at all. I was able to fit a 13 inch MacBook air, an 11 inch ipad in a case, two books, pencil case with bullet journal supplies, my bullet journal, wipes, glasses case, a case with my all of my wires, wallet and my seat cover for the plane all in this backpack and my 40 ounce hydroflask was able to fit in the water bottle pouch on the outside with all of the stuff on the inside and that never happens with this big water bottle. I was able to fit it under the seat in the airplane with ease. I highly recommend this backpack to anyone. For reference I am 52 and weight about 140 pounds and I did not feel anything rub against me wrong once I adjusted it to where I wanted it.

I ordered this backpack at the beginning of the semester and have used it since then. It has held up to many big college books being in it and has also held my iPad and other electronics at the same time. Would recommend a Swiss Gear backpack and would absolutely buy it again.

To small

This fits my laptop perfectly. Its not too big and looks pretty cool

Shipping took a bit longer than expected, but absolutely worth the wait! The quality of this bag is AMAZING, there’s so many different compartments, and easy to keep everything in its own place and separated. The bag is very comfortable on my shoulders, and seems like it will definitely last a very long time.

This product is very tiny. It became my 11 year old school bag.

For the most part I like the backpack. I would have like a small zipper puch on the front for small stuff; keys, wallet, etc.

Very well made, the right number of compartments and pockets.

Bag is a bit small

The bag is lightweight and has a bounty of storage. Sometimes, having too many pockets though, can be detrimental for finding things. It does need a metal key ring clip to keep you car keys on while you are traveling. The plastic one provided is weak and I almost broke it the first day. The bag provided good soft protection for your laptop, but does not have the better hard-sided suspension storage pocket. The zippers are ok, but not great. They need to be bigger and close easier. The pulls are good and comfortable. The straps are comfortable on my shoulders and easy to get on and off. They are easy to adjust and are big enough for larger folks. Overall a good value for the money, but not really built for a road-warrior.
