I have had this bag since 2006 and has held up incredibly well. I take it to work and back home using bus and subway. It is large, but it needs to be to do its job. I originally got it for a 17 HP monster which fit perfectly but was to heavy too cary everyday so I got a 14 HP laptop. Yes there is now alot of extra space but I have never worried about the laptop in the padded sleeve. I must say I am happy with this backpack and yes here it comes, the problem. It is not water proof or water resistent. I lost a BB to this fact. I carry a plastic bag for the laptop and one for BB and other electronics I maybe carring. That is my wish that they would make it at least water resistent. I hope this helps you make a proper decision.

I needed a backpack to carry multiple, irregular-sized items, not to mention a laptop and some computer peripherals. I chose this bag because of its large size, storage capacity, and price. I've used it now for over a month, and I am very pleased with it. I use it for the following items: 1) 13-inch laptop and power adapter; 2) MICR reader with its power adapter and USB cable; 3) Expandable binder for documents; 4) Two collapsible baskets (with wooden handles); and 5) Several pens, pencils, etc. The straps are very comfortable, and the sturdy top handle is well positioned, providing stability when in use. The numerous zippered pockets are a great feature, too. The only negative comment is that the prongs of the adapters can get caught in the netting/mesh of the interior compartments. I have to be careful to position the adapters, which isn't a deal-breaker. All in all, this is a great back for anyone who has lots of stuff to lug around.
