PEGASUS SwissGear Wenger Computer Backpack Review

I ordered this backpack to replace my other Wenger Swiss backpack which looks almost identical. I had an old backpack for about 8 years until it started coming apart at some of the seams, especially around the handle. I was excited to get this new one. I can tell that the packaging is already starting to fall apart after less than a year of use. The lining in the compartments came loose from the seams in two places. The zipper teeth of the second compartment are already bent and binding. The…

. There are very few differences between this one and the one I bought 10 years ago (maybe 8). I pump it all over the country, on planes, trains and in the back of a car. Took him on board a ship for about a year and I don't think I would trust myself to carry many valuables around some parts of Florida. It's held up like a champ, and just this year the top of the laptop compartment has started to wear out a bit. I recently bought a new laptop (I have another one - nothing more than a live…

Today a colleague asked me about my backpack because he wants to buy it and he liked mine. Got me thinking and researching. Bought mine in March 2007 (now December 2011) so lived 4 years and 9 months. During that time I've traveled up and down the line like silver, gold, platinum, gold, silver, with over 100,000 miles in the air and this bag every mile. Besides that. I take my bag to and from work every working day. The ONLY sign of wear is a little fraying on the back bottom fabric as I often…

I have the same as in the photos. It's over 10 years old and I was hoping to replace it so I bought this one. The item I received is slightly different from what is shown in the pictures. The differences are small but significant to me, so I'm returning. The photo also shows my old backpack: there is a chest strap, the second compartment (the one in front of the computer) is shown with a big hole and if you look at the third photo there is a piece of fabric that doesn't make the bag can be…

I've been using this SwissGear Pegasus almost every day since I bought it in July 2008 - I use it at work, at school and even on vacation. My wife calls it my "man's handbag". :) Unlike several other laptop book bags I've tried, this one has a better overall design in terms of pockets, separate internal compartments, and can even easily carry two different laptops at the same time. I can carry around a tool kit, a 50 CDR and DVDR spindle, a set of hard plastic double CD/DVD cases with various…

This backpack is good in every way. I can truly say I've loved it since I unboxed it a few weeks ago and I've loved it more and more every day that I've used it. It really suits my needs. I also liked my previous SwissGear backpack but this one is much better. In response to some other comments and questions, it fits my 17" Dell Latitude laptop easily. The laptop compartment is padded on the front and back and has a red padded divider. My laptop protrudes slightly over the red divider but is…
