Review on Smatree 12 13 3 Protective Carrying Briefcase by Joseph Meola

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great case, broken zipper.

Wanted a hard case for my laptop (MacBook Air 13.3 inch) and that's exactly what I was looking for. It offers space for my laptop and all accessories. My laptop has a clear hard shell and still fits in the bag (quite tight, but good for me). Suitcase arrived on time. The description was accurate. I would have given 5 stars but the shoulder strap and zipper broke. The bag comes with a carrying strap (great!). One of the clasps won't close (not really). The latch gets stuck in the open position and if I want it to close I have to physically force it to close (I've pinched my finger twice already). There is also a small section of the zipper that is deformed (only 2 zipper teeth). Because of this, the bag is difficult to open/close, I have to be very careful and walk slowly. The shape of these prongs will tell you that the zipper will rip sooner rather than later. It can be used now but I don't know how long it will be before the zipper breaks. I needed it for an emergency trip so I couldn't return it for a new one. I just have to hope for the best. Conclusion: Will I buy again? Answer: Yes, I just want better quality control.
