> 3 dayI travel a lot for business and always take a laptop, tablet, and notepad . I have been looking for a well made soft travel bag to keep all my gear in that was not big or clunky and had lots of places to keep various items like chargers, flash drives, power cords, and the like. This one caught my eye and I am currently on my first of many business trips. I am so happy with how well it has worked. The laptop has its own padded area with a Velcro secure strap for safe keeping. My 15 inch MacBook Pro fits perfectly. It has another zippered compartment for my notebook where I keep documents, boarding passes, etc. I like the idea that is has straps to use as a backpack or a shoulder strap if you prefer that.. The straps tuck away neatly if you do not wish to use it as a backpack. This is one of the most cleverly designed travel bags I have ever seen. I am VERY pleased.

> 3 dayIf youre looking for a briefcase-type carry bag this is it. Mine has gotten a lot of use and remains looking almost like new after almost 3 years. Durable, quality, craftsmanship. Its high ratings are very well deserved.

Greater than one weekIt is always a challenge for me to find a bag that is lightweight enough for me to cram into it all the stuff that I carry around on a daily basis (whether I need it or not) & still be able to carry it. I often carry around 3 or 4 bags & forget some along the way because I cant keep track of that much crap! While this isnt the cutest purse Ive ever had, its functionality and quality makes up for its lack of bling. Even I have had a hard time filling all of the pockets (Ive found a way to raise to the challenge) and I love all the different options of ways to carry it. Even with all of the crap Ive loaded into it, I still have enough room for a laptop & it looks professional when I take it to jobsites & client meetings. This is the perfect bag for me & I love it!

> 3 dayIve been using the bag for a couple weeks now. I bought it specifically for a business trip. I needed a new shoulder bag that I would want to use day in and day out, even on weekends, but would still look professional on a business trip (I did not want a generic looking black bag or backpack). This bag has been great! The convertible shoulder straps are more comfortable than expected and the way the stow away is great. The pocket layouts make organizing my stuff very convenient. And it can fit quite a bit. Even fully packed, though, the bag stayed small enough to easily fit under the seat in front of me on my flights during the trip. Everything so far feels like its well constructed. The canvas feels sturdy, but not stiff (I suggest scotch guarding it - I may try to get it waxed). Zippers run smooth and I dont have an issue with them catching or being stiff (a problem Ive encountered on other bags). Overall I am extremely pleased with the bag. It is definitely my new every day go to bag.

> 3 dayThe honest truth is when shopping on Amazon it’s a mixed bag. In this case I was pleasantly surprised by the quality especially given the low price. This product exceeded my expectations so much that I actually went back and bought a second bag in a different color.

Greater than one weekThis bag is an A. I wanted a bag I could walk into a client office with (suitcase style) but also walk with (backpack style). Compartments are well designed. The pad is high quality and well designed. I cant complain about a single thing, because everything was described. I carry two laptops, two cords, and lots of other stuff including at times a stuffable jacket. no problem for this bag. Still, I would do a few thing to improve this very good bag: -offer a version with canvas straps -- the PU leather is kind of cheap looking. -since this bag is rotatable, every zip should be a double zipper. -color or clearly mark the strap stuff-compartment on the back. A few times I put things in there thinking it was a pocket -- very wrong, because its just a hole/flap, and things will fall right out. -the main zipper follows a kind of curve which doesnt open in a dead-straight line. If you have a full bag and a laptop in there, you have to kind of pull the corners away to get it out.

> 3 dayI have had this bag since 2019 and use it daily. It holds my work laptop (which isn’t light), paperwork, and numerous other items. Nothing has broken or frayed. Definitely recommend.

> 3 dayFor almost 20 years, I used BumBakPaks Hampton bags. I loved their use of space and versatility. So when my current BBP bag began to finally break, I went to get another one... only to discover BBP is no longer in business. <insert sad emoji here> After MUCH research (way more than I wanted to do), and making one purchasing mistake (a backpack that I ended up giving to a friend), I decided to take a change on this CoolBell bag - and couldnt be happier. It has plenty of pockets for cables, earbuds, and more, while also allowing me to carry 2-4 books in one of the large areas. and my 14 MacBook Pro along with my Bible and headphones case in the other large area, all while not looking like I am going hiking for the weekend. While Ive only had the bag a few months. so cant speak to the bags durability, I am impressed with the construction. Doesnt seem cheaply made. I mostly use my bag in backpack mode, but can switch to briefcase mode rather easily (I dont use the messenger bag mode as that has proven to be hard on my low back). And least important (but still sort of important in my heart) - the bag looks great. The only thing that would improve this bag is a water bottle holder on the side when in backpack mode, but because of its ability to switch to a messenger bag, I can understand why they didnt include it. If I didnt put so much stuff inside, I could slip my water bottle into one of the large interior pockets, but for now, I have decided to just be content to carry my water bottle.

> 3 dayFor the price I paid, I was expecting more storage room. The leather zipper are in the way when you are trying to reach for other compartments of the bag. The part I like about it, I can either use it as a briefcase or backpack.
