The high density foam padding, surrounding the computer is adequate. So I was left with a decision; return and order a larger computer bag, or make do with what I had.I decided to keep the backpack and make some extremely minor modifications, so my computer will fit in the bag. I selected this computer bag based on brand name, dimensions, functionality, color, and last of all price (being the 2nd most important factor behind brand name). Prior to placing the order, I measured my computer to see if it would fit within the stated dimensions. Second, when I tried to place my computer in the bag, I discovered that my unit was 1 inch to long for the protective sleeve. My examination confirmed the quality SwissGear is known for. There are plenty of zippers to allow easy access to all of the interior features.
For those of us that are extra thirsty or big drinkers, you are out of luck. 16oz - 20 oz).
After the shipment arrived, I carefully examined the product for quality assurance and features offered. All in all a fine computer backpack.However, there are two areas that are lacking: the water-bottle pocket will only accommodate only a small bottle (e.g.
The product description, including dimensions, stated that it could accommodate up to and including a 17" laptop/notebook computer. I did notice there is some room to add additional padding, if the user so desires.
Other than my computer being 1" too long, I would highly recommend this computer bag to anyone. My careful measurements revealed that it should/would fit in the bag.
There are plenty of pockets to hold most, if not all of the typical computer accessories.
Additionally, there is a lot of padding to protect my laptop. The extra padding for the laptop has some notable side effects.
On the downside, the bag does not breathe quite as readily as other laptop bags, so you may end up with a sweaty back if you use it for extended periods of time in warmer climates. First, the laptop is stored closest to the body, so if it rains torrentially that may serve as an extra barrier against wetness.
After owning other, more expensive laptop backpacks, I can say this one is definitely my favorite. In real-life it's a slightly darker color of blue and less bulky looking.
Overall I am pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to a friend. The large zippers and thick fabric (which feels like canvas) are both very durable.
I did not expect it to be especially stylish based on the online pictures, but I have actually received a few complements.
It helps you be very organized. This backpack is excellent for school. I used it only for school for now, not for hiking yet. It's a little bigger than you would expect from a backpack, but it's very nice.Very sturdy fabric. The laptop is very well secured inside it. There are A LOT of pockets for gadgets and room for books.
