McKleinWillow Springs Leather Women's 15-inch Laptop Briefcase Handbag, Black

I chose this style instead of the less-expensive McKlein briefcases because I wanted a wider bag. I don't like to carry a purse along with a briefcase--I want everything in one bag--and this is wide enough to put my laptop/books/papers/whatever in the padded side, and bulky items, including a shoulder wallet and toiletries bag, in the other (organizer) side, with the zippered section between. The zippered section fits letter-sized papers but is not quite wide enough for manila folders. But the outside section fits folders, magazines, legal pads, plus tickets or anything else you might need to put your hands on quickly. There are two end pockets with magnetic clasps. They're big enough for a smart phone (plus there's a pocket inside that will also accommodate a smart phone), but they're not big enough for a water bottle. No problem, you can fit a water bottle inside. I shopped on various sites for this bag and some sites mistakenly say it has a removable laptop section. It does not. I ordered it in red, which turned out to be a very nice deep, vivid cranberry. I took it along on an out-of-town business trip and it performed like a champ. Note that when I was shopping, it was less expensive on the ebags site, but I needed it right away, so I paid extra to get it from Amazon with two-day Prime shipping.

I absolutely love it! It fits my laptop nicely. It's sturdy yet stylish. It's a beautiful bag and I love the leather smell. It fits nicely under my arm for carrying it with ease.

Love it. Wish it was a little wider to fit laptop and all my legal files, I can only fit one or the other with my day planner; but it works great regardless. Love the sturdiness but it's soft and stylish!

I was very pleased when the Briefcase arrived, the Quality was outstanding and the pockets galore I expect a lot of uses to be filled with this Briefcase

I bought this bag after reading the reviews and searching for something similar for a while. It is a big at first glance but, it does eliminate the need for another bag. I have been carying my laptop and my GPS, agenda etc . I have not carried a handbag since I got this. It has two outside pockets good for cell phones or eye glasses, things you need right away.Looks beautiful, good leather. I have been asked about where I got it. I am thinking of getting another one with a lighter color one for the summer.

I have had this bag for two years and LOVE it! I travel back and forth to DC often and it carries everything I need from my briefs, iPad, laptop and phones beautifully - with room to spare for a tube of lipstick or two. The quality is excellent and after two years daily use it shows very little wear.

I was really disappointed when I received this bag. I am partial to red and in the photo it looks like a deep classy red; however, when I got it, it was not what I thought it would be. It is definitely not leather and it felt stiff and cheap. Definitely not the power bag I was looking for. Also, it was not big enough to hold my 14" laptop. Fortunately, I was able to return it.

It was a beautiful bag, really high quality. But my 13 inch Macbook Air didn't fit in the computer pocket even though it said it held computers up to 15.4 inches. I was really disappointed because we searched hard for a nice briefcase bag that would hold what I needed (including the computer), but that also had side "cup holder" pockets for my water bottle and empty coffee travel mug.

A little stiff, more than expected, otherwise it is beautiful.
