Review: Great sturdy and comfortable knapsack for storing laptop and accessories. - Great for storing my laptop and other laptop accessories. I like that is has a number of different compartments. I usually bring my laptop, keyboard and mouse with me. Also has plenty of room for the power adapter. Its very sturdy, but also heavy. Personally, I dont mind that.
Review: this is one very sturdy, spacious and versatile backpack - I've had--and still have--many, many backpacks; been buying them since high school, and I buy a new one every few years. I purchased this one in part because it will fit my 17" laptop, but also because I needed something to replace my old and ratty "day to day" backpack for "urban schlepping." By and large, this is one very sturdy, spacious and versatile backpack, perhaps the best one I've ever bought. It arrived at my place of work with a whole bunch of other stuff I had ordered on desertcart; for the trip home, I was able to stuff my old (partially filled) backpack into it, along with two packaged tablecloths, two shower curtain liners, and several other smaller items--it all fit very easily with little packing effort expended. Two days later I fit 25 lbs of groceries into it, again with ease, and with room to spare--didn't even need the zippered side pockets, but I probably could have put another couple pounds worth of stuff in them. Both times, both trips, I found that the loaded pack rode very nicely, very comfortably near the center of my back, and that was without having yet made any adjustments to the straps. The cushioning on the back-facing side of the backpack is generous but not overly so, and yeah, the "airflow" feature between the two cushioned areas does seem to aid in the comfort factor. The straps are amply wide, also padded, and they have a measure of elasticity to them--near the top of each strap is a trapezoidal-shaped (2x2x3) of sturdy, "one way" stretch material (stretches vertically, not horizontally); when carrying the groceries, the pack didn't "bounce around" or anything, but the elastic acted like a shock absorber of sorts, made for flexibility in movement and kept the top of the straps from digging into my shoulders as other backpacks with heavy loads have done in the past. Overall, the main material is thick and obviously strong, the exterior front pockets are conveniently, smartly placed; the zippers are all seem very strong and reliable; and the stitching of the seams and strap connections appears to be very solidly done. When first looking at this bag, I thought I might be put off by the solid plastic handle at the top of the front compartment--never had bag with one of those--but I've already come to appreciate it: while on the subway I had to take the pack off and carry it by the handle and it allowed for a very good and solid grip, like carrying piece of luggage; also, while wearing the pack the handle doesn't interfere with my head movements at all like I thought it might--doesn't even come near my head. If I have any complaints at all, I'd say I'd prefer that the "organizer pocket" on the bottom front to have a bit stiffer accessory sleeve within (where you put pens and whatnot), but I'm sure I can deal with what's there, or perhaps I'll invest in a small organizer or "catchall" to slip in there. Folks, this is a real good back pack; it might be overkill if you're looking for something just to carry a few light items all the time, but if you need something that will stand up to the regular (or even occasional) heavy load, or to maybe use as a carry on travel bag, this sucker is it. Just as a side note, perhaps to illustrate how sturdy this bag is: A few days after getting the backpack, I was watching a 60 Minutes segment on "Gorilla Doctors," veterinarians who traipse deep into the jungle to aid gorillas in peril. While in the field attending one anesthetized gorilla who had been snared, they show the vets unpacking their gear and medicines and whatnot . . . and the lead vet had what appeared to be this exact backpack. So, if jungle docs have confidence in this bag . . . go for it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: i want to know, hou many litter can put on the backpack?**
A: Will, a liter is a measure of capacity.  So, as was noted by andersonvom, this backpack's capacity is 31 liters (or in the US, about 8 gallons).  Backpack capacity is often measured in liters -- check out REI if you're interested.   In cubic inches, its capacity is 1908...

**Q: Does it fit a 17 inch laptop?**
A: My laptop measures 16 x 12.5 x 1 and it did NOT fit even though this bag's measurements for the interior laptop compartment says: 17 X 12.5 X 2.5 inches. The zippers could not close over a corner of the laptop. It's because the bag is smaller at the top than at the bottom. The laptop is an Alienware Area 51m.  Bummer.  I had to return the bag.

**Q: What is the Max Weight Load? and how does it hold up to time?**
A: Bought this based on glowing durability recommendations and it has proven true or me.  I carry reasonably heavy loads for short trips multiple times a week and the pack looks near perfect after 5+ years.  Also, it is comfortable under a heavy load.  The strap padding and handle are well designed.  My only complaint being the durability trade off is heaviness, about 3.6# empty.  Am looking now for a new pack that has the strength/durability of this one, but lighter in weight.

**Q: Will it fit under the seat in an airplane?**
A: I recently took this bag on a Delta business class flight, fully packed and stretched to the max. It did not fit under the seat, but I had the aisle and the space under the seat was about half that of the middle and window seats. It did fit nicely in the overhead compartment, and my +1 bag fit under the seat. Fully packed it does not exceed the carry-on limits.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best value for money!!
*by T***K on March 3, 2026*

Probably the best laptop backpack I’ve ever had. The backpack is spacious, has enough storage for all electronics and other handy emergency accessories such as but not limited to first aid kit, couple of water bottles up to at least 4-5” diameter, holds a laptop that’s 17” perfectly and includes a pouch for tablet up to 8”, the straps are adjustable for comfort between different sized adults (5’3” to 6’1”) and most importantly the color. Love the black and white combination with the white sections being reflective helps while wearing it and walking in the dark. The front two pockets have lots of space for smaller items such as notepads, pens, passport and other small stationery items. Overall, 5 stars isn’t an exaggeration but very well deserved for such a backpack that adds lot of value for the price. If you need a new backpack for laptop or for any other reason, look no further and get this one! Always love a good Swiss Gear product!
