Review on Durable and Stylish Pelican 1495 Laptop Case in Black: The Ideal Companion for Your Laptop! by Sean Perry

Revainrating 4 out of 5

VERY STRONG BODY!

EXTREMELY ROBUST BODY! If you are looking for something for your laptop due to the new electronics ban, you have come to the right place. I weigh 230 pounds. I stepped on this boot and it didn't move much more than 1/8 inch where my foot was and all the weight was concentrated. The inner padding is very thick, leaving a lot of space between the edge of the device (36 degrees) and the full carburettor. the case itself. However, I deduct 1 star because it is a bit heavy. This forces you to leave a few things on the trip to compensate for the suitcase's weight (even when empty), and the external dimensions are such that only a regular suitcase will fit inside. I suspect this can be sent desperately on its own, but to me this offers the thieving TSA agent (and there are many) a great temptation. Also, TSA does not service the 3-digit combination lock. If you set and block this combination and security opens your luggage, they cannot enter without breaking the lock. So you should leave the front latch unlocked or risk destroying the case if the TSA insists on opening it.

Pros
  • Wide range
