Review on CURMIO Grey Desktop Computer Travel Bag - Carrying Case for PC Tower, Keyboard, Cable, Mouse - Ultimate Protection and Portability by Jess Chen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for road trips, but take a hard case with you for air travel

Yes, aluminum or hard plastic case large enough to fit even a mini tower like this bag is worth no less than $200, but how much would it cost to replace the entire computer? This tote is lightly padded and protects quite well from accidental bumps, but the notoriously rough handling of luggage will keep you happy if you've only got badly dented corners and panels and possibly a cracked side glass if you're one of those people. Make sure you measure your case before ordering as only the smaller mini tower will fit, but the measurements given are accurate. Handles and shoulder strap make it easy to carry for long periods without you having to be a weight lifter. The side pocket is large enough for a full-size keyboard, power divider, and any cables you might need, with a mesh pocket at the end for overflowing if your cable needs are inappropriate or you just want to access a flash drive, etc. unpack and fish around unnecessarily. You can put a small drinking bottle instead, but it's not very deep, so that's iffy. Most graphics tablets should be light enough to slide in from the top next to the tower, but one that doubles as a screen might be too thick to fit on anything other than an ITX case, and some will be questionable - again measure first if that is your intended use. I recommend this bag based on these recommendations. The listing doesn't mention that it folds into an approximately 12 x 12 x 6 inch bag - that's how it comes, secures with a small luggage strap and can be folded. That's why the sturdy interior of the bottom lining is two-piece: the zippers and fabric feel solid, and the seams are well-stitched.

Pros
  • Hard Drive Cases and Cases
Cons
  • Long Delivery Time
