Bought this for a trip I was taking on Spirit Airlines, where you are charged for carry-ons but not personal items. Wanted something that opens up like a suitcase but wears like a backpack and meets the size limits for a Spirit personal item. This thing fits the bill perfectly. I was able to take a weekend's worth of clothing, including flip-flops and a bathing suit, a Surface Go laptop, an 8" tablet, a set of Bose noise cancelling headphones in their case, a paperback book, toiletry items and all chargers. The large packing cube is perfect for your dirty clothes, the medium one take a set of shoes nicely and the small one is perfect for your chargers. Fully packed I was easily able to fit this in the Spirit item "personal item" sizer box that they have at the gates.Would highly recommend, it paid for itself on the trip over (and then some), and was saving me money on the return flight.While I have not used the backpack on a trip, so I can't comment on durability and sturdiness, I can say that the size, structure, and organization will be perfect as a carry-on for a long trip that includes local flights in small planes. And the price is perfectly reasonable, especially since 3 divider bags are included.Additional information - as I was test-packing the bag I found that a zipper caught on the fabric because of the way in which it was sewn. I returned the backpack at no cost and received a new one in 3 days and it is perfect. I will be ordering a second one for my partner.This travel bag fits comfortably in the overhead cabin, but not so much underneath the seat. You won’t have much room for your feet so not recommended for long flights. Lots of compartments and pockets.It’s very sturdy and the clasps keeps everything nice and tight. The optional backup straps are great, but I don’t recommend wearing this travel bag as a backpack. It killed my back after a few hours, and I barely had anything in there.I’m headed overseas today for 5 days (2 of which are travel) so I didn’t want the hassle of checking a bag. I’ve been looking into getting one of these travel backpacks after a friend told me about them, but my last overseas trip was for 2 weeks so definitely needed a larger bag then. For this next trip, I decided to go with this bag based on reviews and my needs.I was immediately skeptical upon opening the package. The bag looked way too small and I was convinced I’d need to return it, but I kept the faith and opened the bag up completely. Wow, was I certainly surprised at the roominess, so decided to get on with the business of packing it!Here’s what’s in the main compartment of my bag, after completely packing it:*A medium compression bag (not one included, purchased separately on Amazon) filled with a dress, two pants, two tops, pajamas, a bathing suit, 4 pair of underwear, and 2 pairs of socks*A quart bag of liquid toiletries*A second separate bag for non-liquid toiletries*2 pairs of sandals*A hair flat iron*2 empty compression bags for the return trip*An empty duffle bag for checking on the way back with purchasesThe outer pocket holds my iPad, a cable organizer case, an international travel adapter, a compact travel umbrella, and masks.The side pocket holds an empty reusable water bottle.I plan to wear it as a backpack and stow it under the seat in front of me. I’ve put it on, fully packed, and its comfortable and not at all heavy or awkward.I’d say so far so good. I’m truly pleased with my purchase and will update after my trip with further thoughts.I am still traveling in FL and this bag/backpack is fabulous! Used it as a carry-on out and will check as a bag to go back. Fits a lot in its compact space. My first time using the packing cubes and….OMG, game changer.Love this and may buy a few as Christmas Gifts!Used this bag for a 3 week trip to Europe, worked great! The 3 bags helped keep my clothes neat and less wrinkled. I was worried about durability but it held up. I used it as a backpack for a couple miles, not super comfortable but fine.Well worth the money I spent!got this for my trip to florida to fit under the airplane seat since i like to travel pretty light. no need to buy a carry on! this bag has nice features and plenty of room for my stuff. my 14” macbook fits nicely as well with room to spare in the pocket. i also like how theres a pocket for my water bottle. this bag opens just like a suit case which was exactly what i was looking for to maximize space + it comes with 3 different sized organizers. theres also a handle on the side so you can carry it like a duffel bag if you want. the back straps also can be tucked into a pocket and zipped up too which is pretty cool if you’re not wearing it like a backpack. the strap on the back to strap it to a suit case handle is also a nice touch to keep it in place if you’re traveling with a suitcase as well. have yet to test the durability but seems like a pretty solid bag for the price.I just went on a week long vacation and used this backpack as my only luggage. I was able to fit in a week's worth of clothes, toiletries, 2 laptops (work (15") and personal (13")), and associated cords and chargers. The large flap on the front allowed quick access to the laptops for going through airport security. Even though this backpack was pretty full, I was still able to place it under the seat.This was the first trip I took with it, so I am not sure how well it will hold up with increased use, but so far it has worked well. I am able to go on trips with just a single backpack instead of having a carry-on and a laptop bag.Pros:- Backpack fit 5 day out fit + laptop- Got through cheap airline securityCons:- Only the big compartment is proper usable, the other two are so tight/Narrow that you can’t fit anything wider than like a notebook ?. No space for my headphones for example- The worst thing is that this backpack has the volume to hold 40l but non of the straps or sewing are made to hold that much. two straps ripped during my 7 day trip, so off in the bin ( see pictures)- The straps dig into your shoulders in a torturous way I’ve never felt before - the straps resemble the staps of a 10l kids bag with that joke of a “cushioning”.- The next joke is the drink Compartment: Once you zip it open, it can literally not hold anything taller than a can - Forget about any bottle, even with the additional leash provided to hold it in place- The laptop compartment is at the top/front of the bag, rather than against your back, so the heaviest item is constantly pulling you back which makes carrying the backpack even more a constant struggleAll in all: The quality of the straps of the bag is so thin and flimsy that it feels like two tight ropes digging into your should which makes flying with them torture when waiting in queues etc. That in itself makes the bag useless to me as I cannot spend hours at the airport with so much pain and I’m not necessarily an unfit person, the straps were just not made well at all.Good quality, most important u can use in all airline companies free of chargeTerrible quality. On arriving at my destination (this was cabin luggage) and exiting the plane , I attached the shoulder straps to use as a back pack. The pack was 6Kg. As I put the arm through the shoulder strap it immediately snapped as shown in the picture. I am now 2000km from home with a useless back back I cant return.My advise, spend a little more and get a pack you can actually use.Ich habe einen möglichst großen Rucksack gesucht, der auch Handgepäck-Maße hat beziehungsweise einen Handgepäck-Koffer mit Rucksackträgern. Und dieser ist der beste Rucksack, den ich gefunden habe. Was mir nicht so gut gefällt ist, dass er noch einen Ticken höher hätte sein können, dass der untere Boden überhaupt nicht verstärkt ist und dass die Träger nicht ganz so bequem sind, wie bei anderen Rucksäcken. Zwei Koffer-Haltegriffe hätte ich auch nicht gebraucht. Was mir aber sehr gut gefällt und weshalb ich ihn behalten habe ist, dass er ein großes Packvolumen hat, wie ein Koffer rund um mit Reißverschluss zu öffnen ist, dass er relativ eckig gestaltet ist, dass er wasserdicht sein soll (habe ich noch nicht ausprobiert), die beiliegenden Taschen, die Haltestrips im Koffer, so dass nicht alles verrutscht, dass er sehr leicht ist und sein Aussehen. Aufgrund vorangegangener Bewertungen habe ich die Ecken, wo die Rucksackriemen anzuhängen sind, geprüft und es scheint alles sauber vernäht zu sein und gut zu halten.When these first arrived I will admit I looked at them and thought they were going to be too small for what we wanted them for. However, on closer examination, I discovered they actually are bigger than they look. The 3 bags I have to be honest are not really like they are in the picture however they still worked great. Loved the colour of the bag id have preferred the laptop compartment at the back but that's just a personal preference. Great bags for the price that held loads of stuff
