I bought this rollerboard/backpack for overseas travel. My first impression is that this is a well thought out bag. When packing a bag for traveling, my thoughts go towards convenience and security. This bag has both. Let’s start with the front two zippered compartments. Zippered compartments in the front of a backpack can be a security nightmare when traveling. This one isn’t. One compartment is double zippered the other is single zippered. You can however secure all three zipper heads together with a single TSA approved cable lock! Which is fantastic. The front lowest compartment even has a secondary zippered compartment within it for added security of valuables. There is also a Velcro pocket at the back of the backpack which the manufacturer says “ Back pocket with Velcro can carry small rags at any time, keep the back clean”, which is a good point because my only pet peeve about this bag is that the wheels will touch your back when used as a backpack, so a wet wipe is always nice to have on hand, however it’s also a great security pouch when used as a backpack. It can hold a passport or some easily accessible cash that a pickpocket has no access to while you are walking thru crowds (like at the airport) with your backpack on. The top carrying handle is extremely well made and secure. The straps in the back have their ends nicely sewn so as to avoid fraying, which is a nice touch. I have gone over this bag with a fine toothed comb. All seams are sturdy and well constructed. Zippers all move freely and smoothly. The telescoping handle seems sturdy and is adjustable to two heights, also it does not protrude in the back when stowed away so the back of the backpack feels good when wearing it. All in all, I believe this to be a solid purchase for me and I am extremely happy with it. I’m sure it will be with me for a long time with lots of destinations planned for it.

I must admit I was truly unsure if this bag would be big enough to fit everything I needed in it. I am currently a nursing student and I have to lug around about 7-9 books ranging of many sizes. I was surprised that not only did it fit all of my books but it had extra room in the back space to put other things on top. My old wish is that the front pockets and the second pockets had more areas to store things. I put hand sanitizer along with my pens etc in the front. I also carry change because I use the vending machines at school after those it really doesnt leave much room for anything else. The if the second section of the bag had more pockets or areas if would definitely be a dream bag! It rolls well and hasnt given me any problems as of yet! I definitely recommend this bag to anyone that is in school or needs space for travel.

Being in the housecleaning business this bag is life, the wheels are sturdy I can fit alot of stuff in it and I love it...

Very good quality.

It is great for traveling with the wheels. So easy to use on so many surfaces. There’s a great bit of space for clothing

It’s a sturdy backpack with a lots of storage and rolls well but it has an awful odor even two weeks after purchase. I sprayed heavily with Febreeze

Got it so far its ok no complaints

I bought this bag to take on a 10 day trip to Europe. I took what I needed for about half of the time because I was able to do laundry about halfway through my trip. I really wanted something I could wheel as much as possible, but still had the option to carry when walking long distances or getting on and off congested transport. I also wanted a bag that would “count” as a carry on for my flights with British Airways, Air France, and Whizzair. This bag fit the sizing restrictions for all 3 airlines and I had no trouble loading it into the overhead bins. The bag rolled very smoothly in the various airports and train stations I travelled through and the wheels are still in great shape after 10 rigorous days of travel to 5 different cities. It did take some trial and error to get the strap length just right so they did not hurt my shoulders as the padding did leave a little bit to be desired, but I found a comfortable set up eventually. I did not use any packing cubes and I was able to pack a swimsuit, 6 pairs of socks, 6 boxers, 6 t-shirts, 4 pairs of shorts, and 3 pairs of jeans (I am 6’6,” so some pretty big pairs of jeans) all in the main compartment along with my quart size toiletry bag. In the compartment on top of the main one I put a pair of flip flops, a quart sized bag with electronics in it, a deflated, inflatable neck pillow, my iPad and my puffer jacket folded up into quarters along with a 25l soft backpack I used for day trips. I did not put much in the two smaller compartments on the front to prevent the possibility of pick pocketing as I carried this bag on public transport in some very busy cities. In the bottom compartment on the front I did put my passport inside the zipper pocket inside the compartment so it was packed behind 2 layers and I put my $5 sunglasses in the top outer compartment when I didn’t want them in my pocket. Overall, the size and weight of this bag worked perfectly for me and the wheels worked great! The handle felt sturdy and was long enough for me to pull even though I am pretty tall. Despite all I had packed, the bag was not bulging and was still pretty easy to zip up. I will be using this bag for all of my trips going forward as it still looks brand new! I even saw other travelers with this bag during my trip!

When I received this bag I unboxed it, it looked good, and so I put it in my office until my next work trip Four months later, I excitedly knelt down on the floor to pack it up, stood up, pulled the telescoping handle up ........ and it only went half way. I was crunched for time so I just put it in the car and figured Id use the backpack straps the carry it. Once at the airport, I realized it was going to destroy my back (from the weight), so I tried to extend the telescoping handle again (half way), and just walked a little hunched over because it was so low. After checking in for my flight I sat down and fiddled with it a bit trying a telescope the handle various ways - fast, slow, hard button press, light button press, leaning forward, leaning back - and finally it gave and fully extended. Putting the handle back down for TSA made me nervous, and rightfully so. The handle was stuck again at the halfway point when I tried to raise it after the security check. I eventually got it raised fully after several iterations of trying to raise it. The bag stored perfectly under the seat in front of me (737 plane, center seat), and the side pocket held my water bottle (laying flat) the whole trip. After the flight the handle again gave me a little more trouble, but then for the whole rest of the trip it was fine. I guess maybe the handle had some initial kinks to workout ...? ... but I wont lie, Im a little nervous about my next trip in a few months. Aside from the problems with the telescoping handle, I love the bag. It seems to be highly durable with lots of functional compartments.

UPDATE: I contacted the company about the issue and they offered to send a replacement 3 weeks later. After telling them about needing it for my daughter’s back issue, with school starting the next week, they got it to us by the next week. Most importantly, the bag came on time as promised, and every zipper, seam, buckle and all aspects of the bag were perfect. I’m grateful for the company’s thoughtfulness and the bag is exactly what we needed. Updating the review to 5 stars based on their helpfulness and new bag. Arrived with a rip in the back seam where the straps are held. Otherwise the bag was what I hoped for: sturdy zippers, large compartments, padded storage for large laptop and wheels. Sending back today and hoping my replacement is better. Will update this review when it arrives.
