Quality is an issue if you use daily
By SUZIECUPIEDOLL from pooler GA on 11/24/2008
Pros:
Easy To Access Items
Cons:
Handle not sturdy enough, Zipper pulls break off
Best Uses:
Not to use on daily basis
Describe Yourself:
Career, Practical
Primary use:
Business
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I use this rolling bag to transport my files to and from the office at work to the office at home. It has real issues with the strength and durability of the handle if you are going to use on a daily basis. I like the bag well enough, but makes it very unprofessional walking into a business and the handle pulls right out completely! The first thing that went was the zipper pulls, they break right off. Not one, but 3 or 4. The bag also looks worn faster maybe because of the material it is made of (kind of attracts dirt). Other than that, it has not served me too well. It is only about 6-8 months old. CHOOSE ANOTHER PRODUCT, AND PUT THE EXTRA MONEY IT WILL COST INTO IT, TO SAVE YOU ON AGGRAVATION AND EMBARRASSMENT!!!

This bags holds almost too much stuff. I brought the bag to carry on my commute to work on the subway, however it's too big and it can be very awkward on the subway. Therefore, I now use it for weekend or overnight travel. It's prefect for that.

I use this bag to carry items I use in my work as a nurse practitioner going to a different school every day to do school physical exams. I would like it to be a little bigger but otherwise am happy with it so far. It is definitely easier to manage than my previous bag which was much bigger and too heavy.

Not as durable as it looks

Bottom Line:

I bought this bag for a two week business trip. It had plenty of room for my supplies, but the quality of the bag is poor overall. Before I even made it to my final destination, the main extendable handle was starting to stick and would extend easily. By the third day of my trip, the hardware gave out on the handle and the carrying strap broke. The bag only had a few writing instruments and a laptop in it!

I love this prodeuct and got it on sale. It was on clearance for like [$] which was why I HAD to get it. On the good front it is very easy to use and holds everything I want to carry with me. I carry almost everything with me when I go somewhere because Im always scared I might forget something. It holds my notebooks, computer, cords, camera, phone, notepads, bottled drinks, almost everything. Of course with being able to hold everything it is going to be big which I should have expected. The only problem I have with this bag is its soo big and when I have stuffed it full it barely fits in my front passenger floorboard.

Perfect for overnight trips!
By MathwhizVerified Purchaser from Marin County, CA on 6/19/2008

Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality, Holds toiletriesclothes

Bottom Line:

Holds everything for overnight trips. My oversized laptop, toiletries, clothes and reading material. No other case or carryon necessary. Lightweight, compact, roomy, extra pockets, good rollers, but pullout handle can sometimes stick and not pull out all the way without several attempts at it.

Even when I'm not traveling, it's not so big that it can't be used simply to carry my laptop around. I also store my laptop and accessories in it when not in use as I also have a desktop computer.

The bag is well organized with ample room for all the things I need to carry on a daily basis. Unfortunately, wheeling the bag across any floor draws disgusted looks from everyone around. I've been in jets that weren't as loud.
