Review on AP Resistant Pro Ascentials Professional by Jessica Parks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well designed and well made

This compact but roomy bag from AP Ascentials ticks most of the boxes on my "wish list" for a new backpack: high quality materials, thoughtful layout, multiple compartments and an affordable price. Designed for use as a backpack or tote, the case is constructed from durable, water-resistant, ballistic nylon with aluminum hardware. Despite its streamlined appearance, the bag measures 15.5 x 16.5 x 5.25 inches and has a capacity of 17 liters. A standard 15-inch laptop fits in the compartment provided. In addition to the laptop compartment, there was a zippered outer pocket, a hidden zippered front pocket, and a main compartment that offered a surprising amount of space (see photo). Unique to this model was the side locking system, which used metal hardware to secure and adjust the straps. This bag is equipped with a serial number based tracking system to help you locate your lost bag (see photo). Baggage registration for this program was done through the app. The only flaws found in this bag appear to be minor but are worth mentioning. The laptop compartment could use a little more padding to protect the laptop inside. Also, I was disappointed that I had to download another phone app to check in the bag. The program on the website would be faster and save space on my phone. The flaws were so minor that they didn't justify dropping the bag's star rating. In short, I highly recommend the AP Ascentials Pro Blaze backpack!
