> 3 dayI havent used it IRL yet. My trip is mid-June so Ill update afterwards if there are any drawbacks. But from what I can tell this will be perfect for my needs. Im going on a European cruise, so I got this backpack to be my (hands free) carry-on that I can use to carry a change of clothes & shoes, any essentials that Ill need until I get access to my luggage, plus the normal stuff that I put in my carry-on (magazines, snacks, headphones, etc.) Once Im on the ship I will be unpacking everything & the luggage will go under the bed. So I wanted something that would hold everything I needed but be easy to get in and out of during my flights & layovers. This one has all the benefits & convenience of both a backpack and a suitcase. I love, love, love that the straps tuck into a pocket on the back and are COMPLETELY out of the way when not in use. One thing that drives me nuts when using a backpack is the straps that are always hanging around. I have to be careful not to trip myself or others on those straps when I dont have the backpack on my back. That will not be an issue with this backpack. Once the straps are tucked away the bag is like a little suitcase. Those straps will not be sticking out from under the airplane seat creating a trip hazard. There is a padded handle on the top and on the side so its easy to carry when its not on your back. The multiple pockets will make it easy to pack and stay organized. I wont be carrying a laptop on my trip, but that seems to be a good feature, well protected. The packing cubes are a bonus. I have other packing cubes that I use in my suitcases (checked luggage) & Ill use these with the backpack. The USB cord attachment will make it easy to charge my phone without having to hold the battery pack and the phone. The battery pack will be inside the bag and attaches to a cord inside. Then on the outside theres a USB port to plug in the phones charging cord so you can charge the phone while holding it. That seems to be a common feature in a lot of these backpacks and I think thats great. I havent used it yet while its full and gone trekking through the airport. But with the padded straps, the chest strap to keep it balanced, and the hip padding, it seems like itll be as comfortable as a backpack could possibly be. The trim on the bag makes it look sharp, too. Its not just a blah looking backpack. Im really getting excited for my trip now and having this bag will make my flight a more pleasant experience. I hate flying and Im constantly going in and out of my bag getting stuff to distract me from my claustrophobia. This bag will be easy to open and give me quick access to whatever I want.

Greater than one weekThis is not your everyday average backpack, this is so much more! This is a laptop bag, a carry on and dare I say a small piece of luggage. It’s so organized, I bet if you generally pack light for vacations, you could easily fit a weeks worth of stuff in this bag. I’m obsessed and am so happy with this bag!

> 3 dayAlthough Im not a frequent business traveler, the 2 things I hate the most is checked luggage & connecting flights. I have literally 6 travel bags in my closet right now and while they all have their advantages & disadvantages, this bag is now my go to bag for the following reasons: 1. expandable to a larger size. There are buckle straps to keep it compressed at a smaller size. 2. The back straps can be unbuckled & completely stowed away once youre on board the plane so it doesnt snag on anything. I would prefer more padding in the straps since you may have to walk a mile or more from the curb to the gate... 3. There are 2 separate handles so you can hand carry it in portrait or landscape mode. The straps could use beefier reinforcement. Time will tell how long they will last. 4. There is a hidden, zippered compartment against your lower back to store important items (passport, wallet, money, etc) that should make it pickpocket proof while youre wearing/carrying it. 5. Large enough to fit my LG Gram 17 laptop. 40L capacity will allow me to carry onboard everything I need for any 7 day trip so I dont have to worry about losing checked luggage. 6. Too many zippered compartment to count. The included packing cubes are a nice touch. Makes it very easy to organize your things how you see fit. 7. The side pocket will fit a standard water bottle but not a larger metal tumbler. I do wish there is a 2nd pocket on the other side for snacks, sunglasses, etc.

> 3 dayI got another larger overnight backpack type bag earlier in the year, and I just found that the main compartment was too big for daily commute use. If I were traveling for a day or two, a packing cube or three in the middle would have been great, but even with two laptops and an extra sleeve between them, it was just too roomy. The maker of this bag decided to include four packing cubes with it, well, three cubes and a shoe bag. The USB charging is a nice touch, and I liked that in the other bag so this one meets that requirement as well. The two inch zipper expansion is great for the return trip with a few souvenirs. Im planning a weekend trip next month and will likely just take this bag. Will try to return with some packed bag photos soon.

> 3 dayThe manufacturer thought of everything with this bag. I really like it. It has so many pockets that you will probably forget what all you packed in it. The material is not the thickest, but it is not as thin as all the others at this price point. This bag has features that let you know they did actual field testing or used real travelers. First, it has all of the cubes so that you can organize different items into separate compartments. You can expand the bag to a larger size. You have 4 buckle straps to help keep the bag secure. The pull-out name tag is a cool bonus. The ability to store the shoulder straps when you dont need them is genius. The strap on the back to attach it to your other luggage, fantastic. I could easily pack this bag for a 4–5-day trip and not have to deal with the crazy airline baggage check process. Hope that helps you today.

> 3 dayThis seems like a great strong bag. The pockets just keep coming and the zippers to expand it as well. Sits comfortably on your shoulders/bag or has a carrying handle. I like the extra travel bags it comes with it.

> 3 dayThis backpack is really well thought out. Not only can you carry your (larger) laptop computer, theres tons of room in the main compartment for several days worth of clothes. Bonus are the 3 cubes (which I have fallen in love with already for my other suitcases) and shoe bag and the external power outlet for your backup battery. I really appreciate that the shoulder straps are stored away when not in use and the backpack folds up so it takes up less space when stored. This is my 3rd backpack carry on and Id say its the best designed so far. Would purchase again.

> 3 dayWhen I travel, I like to keep things organized. Im always on the hunt for the perfect backpack to bring with me. Its got to have enough pockets to keep my things organized, and those pockets need to be easy to get to. This backpack certainly fits the bill on that front. There are lots of accessible pouches on the front and top of the bag in pretty much every compartment. I can keep all of my things organized without overfilling any one pocket. The main compartment is designed for holding clothes, I think, but its perfect for my 17 inch gaming laptop. There is a smaller compartment with a laptop area in it, and thats perfect for my tablet. The bag feels pretty durable; its not the toughest fabric, but it will hold up to airline travel just fine. I wouldnt take this camping or use it as a bug out bag in a survival situation, but its great for going around town or other urban environments. The padding on the straps is maybe a bit thin, but theyre still comfortable even with as much stuff as I jam in my bag. One thing to note is that the straps dont come connected to the bottom of the back, and the buckles are tucked into a small pocket at the bottom. It took my a minute to find them the first time I tried to wear the bag, so just be aware. Backpacks dont come with instructions, but at least for me it would have been nice to have a note or something. Overall its a great daily use laptop bag or overnight bag.

> 3 dayI was amazed by all of the features of this backpack. It was well padded and had at least three ways to carry it around. My most preferred way was the shoulder straps. It took me a while to find the buckles at the bottom to attach the shoulder straps (See pics for hints). With lots of pockets and zippered compartments, it was easy to keep everything organized. I was concerned that the buckles squeeze tabs maybe a bit on the fragile side but have not encountered any issue. Also, Ive seen this design on other backpacks as well. May be the manufacturer can step up and make these buckles more robust for extra durability.

> 3 dayThis backpack is a great companion for travel and goes well under seat as a personal item. Its light in weight and doesnt waste any space. The pockets are well positioned and its not easy to tamper with. Design is extremely well thought out as well and thus a great buy.
