Review on DEWALT DGL523 Lighted Backpack 57 Pockets by Troy Gerhardt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable and functional backpack

I am very impressed. I was hoping it would be strong and light, which is a tricky combination, and it is. The light rises to illuminate the work area and when lowered illuminates the tools inside so you can see what you're taking. What I immediately noticed (checked) was the cross strap on the shoulder strap. With other backpacks I had problems with loosening the cross strap. This one is very hard. Instead of snapping at the edge like most crossover straps, it wraps around each shoulder strap making it impossible to come loose. Anyone who has ever ridden a motorcycle with a backpack knows what I mean. All of the tool compartments make it easy to store a variety of tools that I like to carry and I can keep my laptop in the middle. I've gotten a lot of compliments from my friends because they all have normal backpacks.

Pros
  • Nice little things
