Maelstrom 40-50L Carry on Backpack,Travel Backpack for Men Women,17.3 Inch TSA Flight Approved Laptop Backpack with Hidden Shoe Bag, Expandable Large Computer Business Suitcase Backpacks-Black

This backpack is HUGE! I did not expect it to be this big, but Im so pleased with it! And even though its pretty large, itll still be perfect for all sorts of travel. As long as its not packed too full, it will work as a personal item on an airplane and fit under the seat. I did expect it to be a bit sturdier based on the pictures and it had a green tint to it I was hoping it would have, but neither of those things would cause me to not give this 5 stars. So many pockets, straps, etc. and it even comes with a few packing cubes! This would be great for hiking as well!

I had to replace my high sierra backpack that I used as a carry-on for air travel for several years. This bag was the perfect replacement. It is expandable. It has bags inside the bag to hold toiletries, shoes, etc. It holds a laptop. Although I cannot confirm that it can accommodate a 17 inch since I have not tried it yet. It survived a roundtrip flight and fit in the overhead. I have yet to test if it is waterproof. I like the outside zippers and little pockets. The padded straps and back pad are a plus and very comfortable. The only thing I wish it had was a longer across the chest strap and it lacks an across the waist strap. This bag can get very difficult to manage when it is packed to capacity. I thought I packed too much into the bag as the seams were starting to show while stretching to zip it close, but it is fine.

Great quality. The color is a little opaque, but it does the job. It is too big to qualify as a personal item, but is great as a carry-on piece of luggage

Great backpack for travel

It’s a very good product. It fits a lot of things and there are many compartments in this backpack, and it is perfect to use it for weekend trip! It comes with additional zip bags so that you can separate them. This is a great backpack to have instead of using carry on luggages.

Overall: Great for most major Airlines, but should be mindful prob not for budget airlines (e.g., spirit/frontier). I utilized this bag for Disneyworld. Partner felt it was too big, but it became the bag during disney for food, cords, water container, souvenirs, etc (did its job). You can load this backpack up for a solid 1-2 hour hike, but anything past 4 hours or half a day it may start to strain. Not the ideal hiking backpack, but if its an easy place then sure. Its easily the food bag+other stuff. Would be great for weekend getaways or if you need the extra room for clothes without a suitcase.

I have always used a suitcase. Never again! This is a great travel idea and great quality.

Purchased for traveling. Has room for to spare.

I use the bag as a weekender bag, it holds several outfits and accessories for a nice weekend trip. the bags feel substantial and sturdy. They are a good size so your things dont feel squashed

Very disappointed that the packing cubes did not come with the item! Traveling in the next couple days, so I do not have time to return and receive a new one! Having this extra items with the backpack is the main reason I ordered it.
