straps are terrible
Although was excited to use this bag for all of its features, space and its good looks, the straps are absolutely awful! The straps to the backpack are extremely hard and although they look to be padded, it’s virtually some crunchy stiff foam sewn in. Because of the stiffness, which also makes a cheap foam sound when you squeeze it, they cut into the backpack of your ne...

Great weekender bag.

Best travel backpack
I am amazed at how much this travel backpack can fit. I was worried about my 16 inch macbook since it didn't seem very padded, but with the weight of my stuff on top of it, plus my feet on it during 10 hour flights, everything was okay. It fits under a standard seat, but the flight attendants may think it isn't pushed under all the way as it sticks out more than a norma...

Very nice backpack luggage
This backpack luggage is so awesome. Has so many pockets. I can pack my clothes, toiletries, laptop etc. It’s a great bag for a short weekend trip. And I love that you can carry it as a backpack or you can attach it to
Your other luggage handle. Very sleek.

Convenient
I love the color and functionality of this bag. You can use it as a backpack, crossbody, or it can be hooked to rolling luggage. Lots of inside compartments for easy organization of your personal items.

It’s great!
This backpack is awesome! I got it for my husband when he travels for work. It can easily hold a few days worth of clothes. I like that there are several different areas you can store items. There is a place for toiletries and laptop/iPad too. It really has a lot of awesome features that he will love when traveling.

Suitcase in a backpack
The quality of the backpack is great. It’s more like luggage than a typical backpack with all of the storage solutions inside. This would be so great for short trips where you just need a carry on or backpack only depending on the airline. It’s comfortable to wear with sturdiness but still comfort.

Amazing!!!!
All I can say is WOW!!!!! I am so impressed with this suitcase. It is a backpack suitcase with so many pouches and zippers for everything you can imagine. I feel so lucky to be able to try this for free. Definitely recommend if you travel often. I spend every weekend at my boyfriend's house and this has been a game changer.

Very useful bag! Watch out for your back arch
Really impressed with the bag! It was a zipper and pocket almost everywhere. It’s very structured strategically where you are able to use the most out of it. Very comfortable and little room for not having everything organized. The downside is the shake of the backpack is a rectangle and this makes it a little uneasy to carry and it’s very rigid. I wish there was a litt...

Samsonite for the win, again!
This is such a great, clever piece of luggage! It’s beautifully made, sturdy and elegant. The zippers are smooth and strong. It could be used as a lightweight, little carry on but the dimensions make it acceptable as a personal item! It is light and very packable, with one main large cavity and multiple pockets for organizing, including a waterproof packet. It comes wit...

Perfect size for a two night getaway!
I took this 18 inch travel backpack to a weekend getaway to a historic bed and breakfast. It was the perfect size to hold the items I needed for two nights. There are so many compartments. I really like that you can wear it on your back too so your hands are free.

Great for travel
This is the first item I’ve owned from samsonite and I love it. I like the compression part to keep my items secure. I really like the compartment for my laptop and that I can put my charger through it. I love all of the compartments and that it allows me to pack a lot of items in the backpack while also being small enough to be my carry on item. I also like that some o...

Perfect for travellers!!
I am obsessed with this travel backpack. It has so many pockets and things for organization. You can easily pack for a weekend trip with this bag plus any extras you may have. The water bottle pocket unzips to fit any size!!! The strap let's me put it on my suitcase handle but also fits so comfortable as a backpack. If you are a traveler this is a must!!
