> 24 hourI only bought this because I couldn’t get my usual Targus bag as fast and I was in a hurry. Construction seems good. So far my only complaints are: 1. The handle twists too easily, so if I have much weight in it, it rolls over when going around corners. Admittedly, this is probably not a problem for most people who, unlike me, don’t pile extra stuff on top of it as is if it were a dolly. Not fancy- but cheap, serviceable, and delivered quickly. 2. The dividers are open at the bottom, so papers slide down and curl up into the adjacent compartment. So I’d avoid this model for carrying loose papers or non-rigid booklets.

> 24 hourJust what I wanted. I have 2 portable screens I need to transport with my laptop (it is like carrying 3 laptops). There is plenty of room for them plus room for all of the cables, power cords, extension cord, small docking station and mouse. I put the computer in the computer section, both screens in the center section and all of my accessories in the back section (closes to the handle). The bag is lighter than I expected. I needed a bag with wheels because the 2 screens and laptop made my other computer bag very heavy. I expected with the wheels and handle that the bag would weigh a lot more but it actually wasn’t too bad. Still great film for the wheels though. I would recommend this bag for sure. My computer and screens are all 15.5 inches.

> 24 houryes you get what you pay for....this was inexpensive and it shows in the design and construction The lightweight zipper I wont expect to last very long It really needs more pockets and easily accessible ones The pull out handle feels flimsy and the carry handle is akward to use as it flops over the back and is not one padded strap rather 2 sling type straps... It will do for now but I expect to need a new one sooner than expected... Sorry for the bad review but you asked for honesty

> 24 hourOriginal Review - Do not buy this if you know youre going to wheeling around a lot of weight. I bought it for school because my books are so heavy my backpack was killing my back. Ive only had a short time and the wheels are buckling and there center between the wheels drags the ground. Not saying its not worth the price as it was fairly cheap, but it wont hold up under any real weight. New Review - Im posting a quick update. Ive now had this back for several months and have decided to up my rating by two stars. This is not a bag that will last you forever, BUT it made it through two semesters and lived to tell the tale. I carry a TON of heavy science books. Most days this bag is so heavy I can barely pick it up. The wheels are bending in, but they have not stopped rolling. The back is all scratched up where it drags when I jump off a step or something, but it has not torn through. While the overall quality of this bag is not great, if you dont need the bag for a long time (I only needed it to last me these two semesters), then this is a great option because its cheap. I now HIGHLY RECOMMEND this bag to anyone who only needs it for school or a short time otherwise. Definitely not a bag for work or something where youll need one to last you several years.

> 24 hourAfter about 8 years, my work rolling brief case fall a part. One day, just before I opened the front door, handle broke. I looked around for something durable and reasonable priced product comparable to what I had. Everything was so over priced. I remembered that Amazon had their line of business product. I purchased Amazon basic products before and I am always satisfied with the quality. I am glad that I purchased this brief case also. Size of the pried case is enough to accommodate 15” laptop, various size folders and front zipper section also has multiple sections to hold work badge, pens and small documents and envelopes for quick access. I have not taken this brief case to any business trip but the handle is very comfortable and it balanced really well. Wheels are also very smooth. I do not expect any problems. I Think it offers great value for the price.

> 24 hourThe storage space is not what i was expecting...I thought it would hold more than it does...I am luck to get 2 outfits in it with my laptop. It does not fit in the overhead bin of American Airlines regional jet Embraer 175 very disappointed. I had to remove my laptop and check the bag...

> 24 hourI am a specialized teacher who goes from school to school every day, all day. I drag this through all types of weather and surfaces. It has been five months of super busy use. The wheels will sometimes get clogged up with hair, carpet, and lint, which makes them not roll very well for a few days. Eventually I can clean it out a little, and the rest rolls out. Other than that, the rest of the briefcase is doing great! The telescoping handle still works fabulous, zippers are great, and handles and fabric are fine. It’s just those wheels. An improvement would be to make it so that the wheels can be removed, cleaned, and put back in. Their casings are sealed though. It’s still a pretty good value. Thanks!

> 24 hourIm a 2L law student. I have a lot of books. This does not cut it. I received the bag today, will be sending it back tomorrow. Cannot recommend, definitely not keeping it. I also think for what I got, it was priced about 20% too high, assuming my stuff fit the bag. Quality Flaw: Im starting with this, because it was the ultimate nail in the coffin on this bag. Im including a picture. I pulled back the flap inside the bag that covers the framework for the handle, and you can see the grommets for the bottom of the case. Not only is one damaged (see the portion of metal missing), but some of the rivets do not look like theyre going to hold up, one is completely rusted, and all the others have started rusting. Guessing thats why you see a silica packet they included. Doesnt look like it did its job. I would guess this area would get much much worse over a years time. Front pouch: Entirely too small to hold much of anything, in my opinion. Yes, it will hold a few pens and business cards. Beyond that, I think youre out of luck. It has more little compartments than it will be able to hold items. I know if I was keeping the bag, the only thing I would end up using that section for would have been a phone charger/usb cables. Interior: Two or three days a week I need to take at least a couple of moleskine planners, three large textbooks and a 3-ring binder on campus with me. Usually, my laptop and another binder, plus a notebook, are added to that. Obviously a backpack would kill my back, which is why I need something that rolls and has room. The answer was not this bag. First, the large area is actually two medium areas, separated by a flap down the middle, which is not secured at the bottom, so if you toss in something smaller, good luck guessing which section it will end up in. Second, the sections are too small for my purposes. I can JUST fit a regular sized textbook in there, my ConLaw textbook (anyone who has taken ConLaw knows thats the biggest book to ever exist) is too thick to fit. Assuming I dont use the bag for my ConLaw book, I still cant fit two textbooks side by side, which is the whole point of getting a wider bag. I also couldnt fit a binder and a textbook in a single section. Very frustrating. Bottom line, I could have fit maybe two textbooks, a spiral notebook, a pencil case (since you cant use the front), and my laptop in this bag. Probably my moleskine planners as well. But I dont know what Id do with my bigger textbook and two binders. Assumedly I would have to use a second bag, but that defeats the purpose of a rolling bag in my mind. Extending Handle: This actually looked pretty nice and sturdy. I pulled it out once and then collapsed it back. At that point I knew the bag wasnt for me, so I didnt really care to pay it much more attention. You do have to unzip a portion of the bag to get the handle out. This is probably very handy for some people who want to put the handle away and not see it/worry about it getting caught on anything. Strap Handles: They velcro together with a handle wrap, if youre into that kind of thing, then its great. I dislike such wraps. Fabric: Seemed very sturdy, thicker than my High Sierra backpack (which has ripped, btw), and just as sturdy as my Timbuk2 bags, although the Timbuk2 fabric is lighter and I would trust it more. Wheels/bottom: I forgot to look… Sorry!

> 24 hourThis bag is pretty great. I was using a diaper bag to store my work supplies but it go to a pount where I was throwing my shoulder out due to the weight. So I took a chance on this bad girl right here. First the handle is a little wobbly, not a huge issue for me, but might be for someone else Second this thing can hold some serious stuff. I can fit a kokuyo novita binder, an a4 kokuyo slide binder, a big size happy planner, a 10 inch tablet, a legit lab bag in bag large size, a pen pouch, 42 pens (yes I have a stationary addiction, no I dont want help. Im perfectly happy being the crazy pen lady) two clean pouches with a stapless stapler, white out and other odds and ends, a full pack of diaper wipes, a water bottle, and I could fit two more slide binders with ease. And five packs of kokuyo sarasara paper. This all weighs in at 35 pounds that I was hauling on my shoulder. This bag is a flippimg god send. Its made well, the zippers are holding beautifully, the stiching is great. The padded pocket is in the middle to keep your laptop safer. The handle tucks away inside a little pocket if you want to carry it by the straps. And just a side note, I have three dogs, two cats, and a birb. So far no hair has stuck to it, which is a flipping miracle in this nut hut. With white pets, the hair shows on black like a neon becon and so far I still look almost professional. (Well the bag does anyway.)
