Review on ๐ŸŽ’ Fallin Padded Backpack: Optimal Protection for 17 Inch Laptops by Gloria Jones

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent all round bag (my second)

This is my second full laptop backpack in this style. not quite the right size and didn't have the right mix of pockets for my use. It seems to have enough small and large pockets to put everything I need and I can remember where I put it. I really like the open pocket between the small and large pockets. Strangely, things never fall out, but they are easily accessible when needed. It also has space for a water bottle, which some bags don't have. To the pockets there are small pockets inside the pockets for small items. If I wanted to improve it, I would add a transparent zippered mesh pocket in the computer compartment for small cables, flash drives, adapters, etc. It's also pretty convenient to take with you when hiking or cycling. enough stuff to carry what I need but not so big that it's unwieldy. Another thing it doesn't have is a strap to attach it to a trolley, but I usually carry it on my back when I travel. It also has good padding on the back to make it more comfortable (not sure if that's why it doesn't have a luggage strap) and the zips are solid. The first lasted 5 years under heavy use and caught on something tearing the fabric and the hole got bigger over time. I still use it as a spare because only one of the pockets has a tear. I'm also a tough reviewer and don't usually give products 5 stars unless they deserve it.

Pros
  • Backpacks
Cons
