Great purchase
I needed something on wheels to carry medical supplies and extra food and drinks as I am hypo glycemic. Used it for one day and so glad it was on wheels and easy to maneuver. Definitely would recommend it for someone who has to use a cane to keep their balance or uses a rollator or wheelchair like I do.

A backpack build out of chiffon material.
The material used is SO THIN that it will tear easily. How can the designer team be allowed to produce such a fragile backpack, I have to reinforce some parts for better protection. High Sierra should recall the backpack.

An attractive if less than functional carry-on
Very disappointed to find that "fits most 17" laptops" did not apply to my own laptop. In fact, so much sticks out of the designated laptop pocket that I wonder if any 17" laptops fit that pocket at all. In order to fit my laptop, I have to wrap it in clothing and put it in the much less padded main compartment, which is less than ideal. Additionally, the bag could u...

Best carry-on!
I absolutely love this backpack. I can pack enough for at least two weeks, it rolls well and fits even European overhead bins. I use compression cubes and do not check bags and along with my personal item traveling has never been so easy. (I have not used the backpack feature as that is for emergency use only and so far I have not had any emergencies.) The only reaso...

Sturdy and large
Very sturdy, lots of compartments, rolls easily. The handle moves up and down smoothly. It's a little heavy, but hopefully that will mean it is more durable in the long run. Fits my middle schoolers many books, computer and lunch, with room left over for a change of clothes. Water bottle fits very well in the side pocket.

The backpack I needed to save my back
I purchased this backpack to haul around all my heavy textbooks for nursing school. It’s very sturdy and the wheels glide smoothly. I appreciate the telescoping handle for the long walks across campus. Highly satisfied and definitely recommend.

The perfect short trip bag.
I purchased the Powerglide Pro rolling backpack after a back injury which would not allow me to carry a heavy book bag at school. For that, it's perfect, I can fit every book I have, my laptop, my tablet, and everything else I could need inside this one pack. It's definitely a large pack, which would be excellent for traveling light if you were taking flights from place...

Nice design, thin nylon and fragile seams
Backpack did great as a camera bag for a combination of air travel and hiking, loved being able to convert between rolling and backpack. However, the nylon material seems cheap and not durable. On the first use, before getting on my first flight, the seam near the rolling handle ripped away and failed. Given almost no use, I’m hoping that High Sierra will cover under...

Great backpack
So far so good. My son uses this backpack for school. It is a great size and holds a lot of stuff. The water bottle holder could be deeper and it could use a Chromebook holder/pocket. Other than that it is great

Use for air travel and the handle strictures broke
I own this in the beginning of sept and use it for air travel once, i put it inside the cabin storage, but when i gott off, the steel handle sfoundation has bent.
This is very disappointing since i have this bag in just under a month.
I have high expectations and the quality would be great since i have previous purchases of high sierra.

BIG
This thing is huge! Lots of room in this one. It also glides easy. I love the zip up pocket to tuck away the handle in. I also love the 2 side pockets. They are big enough for a large water bottle. Well done and a beautiful color.

Rolling back pack.
Love the side pockets for water bottles. Roomy, rolls well, well made. Good interior design for organization. Would love some small loops on the bag to accommodate hiking hooks.
