Freewheel Wheeled Laptop Backpack, Black, 20.5 x 13.5 x 8-Inch

I bought this for airplane carry on bag and it's GREAT! VERY large interior and many functional compartments, pockets, and slots to keep organized while traveling. LOVE the light navy blue color, it's pretty! it rolls nicely and seems sturdy. AND my fat Hydroflask water bottle easily fits in the the outside mesh pocket!

Awesome travel bag. It's not super huge so you can keep in the overhead but has enough room for short trips. I dragged it around Seattle for a convention, in and out of the rain. Took it on the ferry and had it with me most of the time and it held up well. I never strapped it to my back, rather kept it rolling around and even when I was running away from homeless attackers, it held up quite well and rolled smooth and has shown pretty much no signs of breaking down. Very happy with the purchase, probably more than most of the garbage I end up with these days.

You know you need a rolling backpack when you grow three inches after removing your current backpack. Going to school nowadays requires several textbooks, notebooks, and a laptop--not to mention the sack lunch you try to shove in on top. This rolling backpack is QUALITY. It was exactly what I needed. I named him Hugo. Hugo and I have been together for two years now, and he shows no signs of wear and tear. This is incredible, because I walk around West Valley College campus for a mile or two each day just trying to get from one class to another. Hugo has been rolled through the rain-- (my books did not get wet)-- across grass, dirt, and bumpy tarmac, and even flown to Texas and back. My laptop fits perfectly in the laptop pocket on the inside---and I have a large laptop, too, not a Netbook or whatever they're called. It's easy to roll this thing, and it takes all the weight for you. You don't feel like you're dragging it around because it rolls so smoothly. I don't use the straps ever, so I can't tell you how that function is, but everything else is sublime in design. To give you an idea of space, my record for shoving books into this backpack is twelve thick books. (twelve books, not textbooks). That was on top of my laptop, cord, and notebooks for class. Please, if you get a rolling backpack, get this one. It's worth the money, it's not flimsy, it stays working for who knows how long--for two years running so far, it's spacious, it protects laptops well, the handle's easy to hold on to, it doesn't make too much noise when it's rolling--- it's just an awesome, awesome backpack. If I could find the design team that made it, I'd send them all thank you cards.

I really like this bag because it has a sturdy handle, sturdy wheels and is spacious to fit my work laptop, notebook, over the head headphones, snack box, and water bottle among other things. I commute to work via subway and then walk a couple blocks. However, the zippers on the main compartment go all the way down and there is no strap so the contents can spill out if you open it too far. This is why I’m returning it. I should’ve watched the product video instead of just looking at the pictures!

Update 2 June 10, 2016: The handle came yesterday and it turned out to be a little harder to replace than I was hoping for. The assembly was riveted in which is easy to remove (drill it out), but difficult to replicate. I went, instead for 2 bolts and nylon locking nuts. It works and I'm VERY HAPPY! Update, June 6, 2016: I just got off the phone with High Sierra's customer service and had a GREAT experience. I chose not to email them because I like talking with people in these instances and I was able to give him the information right then and there (and another reviewer had problems doing it via email). Anyway, apparently my son leaves the telescoping handle up as school, something heavy fell on the bag and the handle bent (would have been no problem if he'd collapsed the handle like he was supposed to). I didn't think the handle looked replaceable, but upon further inspection, it did. So I called the warranty and repair dept (1-888-368-1304) hoping to BUY a new handle since this was my kid's fault, not a warranty issue. After verifying the model and if a handle is available, they're sending one out, no charge!!! Hopefully it's only one screw holding the handle in as it looks. All this took a grand total of 10 minutes. I'll update as soon as the handle comes in in 3-5 business days :) Oh, and my 2 10-year olds have used these bags for 2 school years and the bags are almost in perfect condition and hold A LOT. This was the first review, from May 2015. One school year in and this bag still looks close to new. Everything still works well. I bought two of them for my 3rd grade twins and have NOT let them roll them through the sand or grass- only over pavement (to protect the wheels). I also told them how to treat the handle by not spinning it around to face another direction- they need to walk it around carefully. One child had to be told a few times not to try and ride the handle like a horse .... I did all of this warning because I pick them up every day and see the abuse kids put on these roll-arounds. Then I hear the parents talk about how one brand or another doesn't last. I figured that these looked tough and I like the reviews so I tried them out- but I instilled those rules because I want these to last for 3-4 years. I'd buy them again, but I hope I won't have to for a while :)

Looks great of good quality- especially at the this price point.

El bolso es bonito y elegante, PERO, viene con muy muy poco o nada de refuerzo en la parte de abajo, como resultado de ello, la parte inferior del bolso se rompe con facilidad aún estando nueva la parte superior, LA VERDAD SE ME HACE DE MUY MALA CALIDAD PARA EL PRECIO QUE SE PAGA

A ocupé para viaje como maleta de cabina y muy cómoda, me gustó mucho. Gracias

Good quality

Bought this for my son. He loves it.

Samsonite has been my go to for many years, private or business use, this product is no different. Does what it needs to do and has a spacious main compartment, including a spot for your laptop if you need that. I use mine as a day pack and carry my work shoes in there along with a change of clothes. Mostly use the pull handle to hang my shirt and pants in a change room so its not on the floor.

I've used this product for 10 yrs now . Bought the second recently. And it's one of the best travel bag I must say . It's handy in the airports .. as it's a trolley and backpack . Especially with kids . I manage to carry 2 days cloths aswell just in case the checkin goes missing . It's sturdy and the pull up backpack handle is a very good option as it helps in hurried aircraft exits and if we need to climb up to the aircraft etc.. It's priced a bit high . But the quality is very good. Also want to make a note . Please bring out more colours and sell it in retail s as the traveller s are increasing . Worth the buy!
