> 24 hourI like the bag. It has prevented some back aches. I use it to carry equipment and a tablet for work. It can be heavy if you need to lift it by the handles. Wheels are noisy. Co-workers tease me because they know exactly when I have entered the office. I have been using mine since April 2017. Fabric that separates compartments tore some time ago. I just threw the bag away, but I could have continued to use it. The wheels look like they are about to fall off or fall apart. They have looked like that for months, but are still rolling. I purchased a second one months ago and will purchase another when needed. Handles are sturdy. Use them at least 3 times a day. Adustable handle works well but can be a little difficult to hide away. I never store it anyway. The wheels have stood up to rolling on concrete for 0.3 to 0.5 miles for about 300 days.

> 24 hourFirst impression is that its a good rolling laptop bag. However, when I pulled out the handles, I had a really hard time extending it out completely. It kept getting stuck. Its doesnt smoothly maneuver in and out. Also, the handle extension is wobbly and feels like it could break easily. I just got it yesterday so well see how it works when I put it to the test.

> 24 houryes you get what you pay for....this was inexpensive and it shows in the design and construction The lightweight zipper I wont expect to last very long It really needs more pockets and easily accessible ones The pull out handle feels flimsy and the carry handle is akward to use as it flops over the back and is not one padded strap rather 2 sling type straps... It will do for now but I expect to need a new one sooner than expected... Sorry for the bad review but you asked for honesty

> 24 hourVery lightweight, so I thought it’d be cheap and break. I use this every day to/from work with my laptop, iPad, two phones, purse, water bottle, lunch bag, all the chargers, headset and whatever else I need for the day…it all fits. and the wheels are quiet! My previous bag was so loud and obnoxious. Haven’t had this one very long, about a month now, but so far so good! Highly recommend!

> 24 hourUpdate after 18 months: The bag is still going strong. I thought it would only last maybe 6 months but I am happy that I am wrong. I would say that the wheels have normal wear and tear, the handle does not move as smoothly, and the bottom is scratched up pretty good. But nothing is exposed and all the stitches held up. I have not been especially careful with it either. Just normal use and I didnt think much about caring for it. I usually carry about 15~30 lbs of stuff (laptops, pens, files) with me so I feel that I am putting it up to the test. For $40 bucks, you cant go wrong with this bag. I expect it to last another 6~12 months easily. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original Review: Order it Wednesday night and was at my door before noon on Friday. Amazon, you did it again! So a little bit of background info. I am more or less a traveling salesperson. Besides a 16 laptop, I also carry a secondary screen thats about the same size and just as heavy. Padfolio for notes, give away pens, my files, client files and basically bring my office with me. I hurt my shoulder so using my shoulder carry bag was starting to be really painful. I needed something that I can wheel around while my shoulder rest. I figured that at this price, this is disposable if it ends up to be a crap bag. So far, first impressions are positive. --- Overall Size --- Its just a bit thicker than my normal shoulder carry bag and just a bit taller. I say the empty weight is about 3~5 lbs and its pretty much in line with a shoulder carry --- Storage Space --- Roomy. The first section (the small front pouch) can be opened pretty wide. you can see that in the pictures. I used a dollar bill so you can get some perspective. However, the little divider sections in the pouch are kind of a joke. I wish they would have made less section and make the pockets in there bigger. The midsection has a dedicated space for a laptop. Fit my 16-inch laptop and additional screen fine. Nice touch by adding padding at the bottom of that portion. I think it will offer some minor protection if you drop it a little. DIdnt do a drop test tough. There is additional space for my padfolio and files right next to the laptop section. Its pretty big. However, it shares space with the 3rd section of the bag. See pictures The third section is where the handle is located. I took a picture on the top of that section when the handle has been retracted and zipped. You can see it bulging quite a bit. Kind of weird to look at. But I dont expect to ever put the handle away so its not a big deal. But just wanted to point it out. I need this to function, not to look pristine. There is some additional space here but the funny part is that the divider wall between sections 2 & 3 is not sowed all the way to the bottom. So if you place something small in there, it could easily be rolled to section 2 of the bag. Not sure why they designed it this way. But not a deal-breaker for me since I plan to keep folders in that section. But if you carry a lot of small parts and need to keep organized, I would put them in ziplock bags beforehand. --- Mechanics & Material--- Solid. The outer shell seems sturdy, wheels roll fine and the handle is nice. As for the handle, when pulled out at full length, it comes up to my belly button and Im a bit over 58. Wheeling it was quite comfortable. Havent load it up completely yet but the dry runs feel decent. The wheels do take up a very small amount of space in section 3 of the bag. However, your contents are protected by a piece of hard plastic between the wheel and the bag so I dont expect any damage to your things. There is just a thin fabric between the bag and the handle arm that extends inside the bag to the bottom. I would watch it if you are going to carry delicate items. Lastly, I would say the price. At $35 bucks, I consider this bag to be disposable. Not that I have $35 dollars to throw down the drain but I feel that it is offering quite a bit of value. I was concern about other reviewing talking about the wheel not lasting as long. However, since my trips are mostly around parking lots and office buildings, I figured that I can take that chance. I will update if the wheel fails for the light amount to towing I would be doing. That would be a pretty major fail if it can survive trips around a parking lot. Time will tell.

> 24 hourPerfect for me. I am a nursing student and have tons of books to carry around. I was a little reluctant of getting a rolling case, but after the first week of school, I learned my lesson and began the search for a rolling case. I had already dropped an arm and a leg this first week of school on other supplies/books/scrubs etc., that I was searching for a DEAL. (Amazon got tons of business from me) I was worried about compromising quality, but then I fell across this bag! After reading the reviews, I was more reluctant since most people were complaining about no padding where the pull bars are, not much padding through out the bag, but after receiving the bag, my worries flew out the window! The bag is better quality than expected and is holding up great. There is no padding against the arm pulley, but there is a covering which is fine. Most carryon bags have this type of style where just a fabric covers the metal on the inside of the bag. You probably are not toting around antiques that are fragile, so that should not be of grave concern. The section in the back is large enough to fit books or say an outfit if you are doing overnight travel and some toiletries. There is another compartment that has a divider in it, in which you could put a lap top on the front end of the divider and some files behind it. Then there is the small area in the front that you can store pens, phone and other miscellaneous items. I put my keys, wallet, sunglasses, medicines, lip gloss and hand lotion in the front pocket, MacBook in the computer storage area along with my Beats by Dre headphones and in the third compartment (closest to the arm pulley) is where I can stash 2 large books and 2: 1 binders, a medical dictionary, my stethoscope and my lab coat if I take it off. I would say that is quite the arsenal. The material is thick and sturdy, the arm pulley is super long, so Im sure thats a plus for taller men/women. I am very pleased with the sturdiness of this bag along with its simplicity and price!! I also love that you can hide the pulley when not in use by zipping it closed in. I use the bag 5 days a week, every week. I roll through parking lots and through the campus, so I would say it gets regular/daily usage. I am only giving this item 4 stars, because I wish it had a longer strap for over the shoulder for instances when I would not roll it, or if I felt like carrying it would be easier. You only have the two shorter handles. Other than that, I am very very pleased with the item I received for the price I paid. If this were to wear out within a year - which is realistic b/c it isnt a $300 rolling computer bag -- then I would definitely replace it with the same bag.

> 24 hourI have been searching for a rolling laptop computer bag for work travel purposes. The value on this bag cant be beat- the storage capacity is great, it has a padded section for a laptop or tablet, a section for pens, cards, and other work related items in the front, and plenty of space for additional items. This bag was easy to roll in the airport and fit effortlessly under the seat in front of me on the plane. This is going to be my go-to carry on from now on- previously Id been using a backpack style laptop computer bag, which naturally I would stuff full when traveling, and it caused me a lot of shoulder pain. This bag was far more organized, less bulky, and more ergonomic. The price cant be beat- Im very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend this item.

> 24 hourI am ROUGH on bags, I’ll be the first to admit. I am a nurse and a sturdy bag lover. I purchased this bag with the intent of using it to teach clinicals two days a week. Enter Covid, and I am now teaching clinicals online and labs on campus 4-5 days per week. I keep a hanging file for each course in the one pocket, along with my laptop (Dell 2-in-1) in the padded part. I keep my binder, power cord, mouse, planner, etc in the other pocket, and wallet, pens, chapstick, sunglasses, keys, etc in the small front pocket. The other rolling bags were so much more expensive and this one had great reviews so I went for it. I could not be more pleased! Definitely good bang for your buck.

> 24 hourIt seems durable but only time will tell. The size is perfect for teaching, the three compartments being just the right size for a lap top, markers and etc. of course the rollers and handle make it perfect.
