Review on Vera Bradley Recycled Reactive Medallion Outdoor Recreation and Camping & Hiking by Crystal Collins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Practical and convertible from backpack to suitcase on wheels. Wish it had a safety and slip cover

I am a small woman in "northern age 60", and although I used to want to travel with a backpack, I never found it convenient enough or easy. enough to lift it onto my shoulders. I am not exaggerating when I write that after testing this backpack I was able to put it on and it fitted my back perfectly. I was worried the wheels would bother my back, but that wasn't a problem. I am really looking forward to using this on a trip and was planning to try it out on a trip scheduled for May 2020. Unfortunately, this trip did not help. happens, so my review is based on a test run where I boot up and walk around the house with it for a while trying to mimic an airport. The two large pockets held everything I wanted in my under seat luggage: my quart bag of liquids, tablet, phone, headphones, essentials (like meds etc), a few magazines, in-flight snacks and so on . An outside zippered pocket is useful for flight documents that I want to find quickly and easily. There are two spacious pockets for drinks bottles on the sides. Love being able to use it as a backpack or as part of a rolling luggage. The straps are well hidden, the handle goes up and down smoothly, the bag rolls well. Two missing features and the reason I give this bag 4* (like) instead of 5* (like) 1) No. the addition of external security features such as cut-resistant straps or zippers; and 2) the lack of a sleeve at the back, allowing the bag to slip over the handles of larger luggage if necessary.
