KROSER Travel Laptop Backpack 17.3 Inch XL Computer Backpack with Hard Shell Saferoom RFID Pockets Water-Repellent Business College Daypack Stylish Bag for Men/Women-Black

First of all, this bag is a fantastically designed and built bag. Overall very strong, spacious and I love the number of divisions it has to keep different types of items seperated. I originally purchased this about a year ago. While I was extremely happy with the product, a manufacturing defect showed up and I reached out to customer service about this. They quickly sent me a replacement bag! Was very pleased with the customer service and that they stood behind their product!

I usually by Swissgear backpacks as I need the durability. I travel a lot and I go thru a backpack about one every year. I need one that is super durable and comfortable for traveling. I also need one to handle all my stuff (laptop, extra screen, cables, office supplies, power strip, travel wallet, power supply, extra battery, etc...). This one has the space and quality I needed at the right price. It also has a cross strap which helps with travel. It has a lot of good functionality and smaller compartments for cables, power supply, ear phones, sun glasses, etc. Overall, I am super happy with it.

Great backpack. Compartments all over for everything you can think of. I have my devices in one area, an extra car key, credit cards, etc. in another. A few light clothes in yet another. And for any misc item you can think of you can find a pocket or compartment for it. Has a hard shell area for glasses and other fragile stuff. Construction seems good, the zippers work well, sturdy top handle. Assuming it holds up well to travel I absolutely love it!

Recently, there was a natural disaster where I live that came on suddenly. I wasn't prepared at all. I needed to leave my house with essentials, including my laptop, phone, clothes, a cpap machine, toiletries, and a few food items. However, I didn't have a proper bag for any of this stuff. I had to use plastic grocery bags, which were less than ideal. Having this sudden emergency made me realize I needed a good bag to throw everything in. I needed a bag that could hold a variety of items and made from durable, sturdy materials. I didn't want a thin bag or one that could crumple up. I got this Kroser backpack for that purpose and I think it was a fantastic choice. This bag has multiple compartments of various sizes. Starting with the outermost zippered compartment, it's large enough to hold notebooks or pads of paper, and has an additional pocket inside. The next zippered compartment is a little bit larger, and has several organizational features to hold pens, cards (including RFID protection) and an internal mesh zippered pocket. After that comes the biggest zippered compartment. This one is a great place to put clothes or food. It's deep and has a large internal pocket as well as a mesh internal pocket on the side. On the top by the handle there is a zippered hardshell compartment designed to store and protect sunglasses. The zippered laptop compartment is large and has a pocket for a laptop, and an additional pocket for a tablet, smaller laptop, or keyboard. Devices in these pockets are secured with a velcro strap. There is also an internal zippered pocket in this area. Both sides of the bag have zippered compartments and mesh pockets to hold water bottles. These hold my 24oz Takeya bottle securely. There is a USB port on one side with an internal USB cable. You can connect the cable to a power bank inside the bag while plugging your device into the external USB port. The straps are padded and comfortable. The back of the bag has padded sections, a luggage strap, and another zippered compartment at the bottom. There was a combination zipper lock included. Overall, this is an amazing bag for $40 and I highly recommend it.

I bought this backpack after a lot of deliberation, to replace a previous one from a different brand that I immediately disliked, and which started falling apart immediately as well. By comparison, this one is obviously much better (a low bar, but I do like it overall). The biggest issue is the laptop compartment itself, though - it fits my large laptop fine, and it does fit fairly snugly in the sleeve, making it easy to carry around with you, however the sleeve itself feels kinda flimsy, and it just barely fits around the top, too, so I'd be a lot more worried about damaging it if it got dropped wrong, than I have been with some other laptop travel backpacks I've used (sadly, my favorite one doesn't quite fit the new, slightly larger than 17.1 inch screen laptops they're making these days). Still better than nothing, though, obviously, and it'd be fine on a plane, I'm just a little more cautious when I get to the hotel and haven't unpacked yet. It's padded, just not *very* padded (and no padding for the top). Unfortunately, I didn't really see any that were much *more* padded, either. (At least none that still fit large laptops like mine - and this one does, if barely.) In terms of space, though, overall this wins. I do miss how my previous backpack had two decent sized "primary" compartments, the one with the laptop compartment, and another separate one, that were both pretty big. This one has the laptop compartment that's exactly the right size for a laptop, then one enormous compartment, and two much smaller ones. That's a pretty minor complaint, though. The smallest compartment has a pouch for a tablet (or just two separated spaces for your small items), the second, slightly larger smaller compartment has a bunch more separated small pouches inside (including one with an internal zipper). then the main compartment accordions out a big, so it can fit a decent sized package, or more clothing than you'd expect from a backpack this size. But I've also flown with it and not had a problem getting it under the seat. (Only the main compartment is particularly useful for filling with clothes, though. The other two are clearly designed more for pills, keys, paperbacks, small electronics, etc.) There are also two small zippered pockets on the side, and a third on the top. The one on the top contains a *removable* hard internal pouch for holding a pair of sunglasses - I was actually going to complain about it (it gets in the way, if you aren't using the space for sunglasses)... until I looked at it again just now, and yeah, completely removeable. (I use it for coins and things, since it's the easiest to access.) Each side also has a small outer mesh pouch, which looks like you'd use it for holding things like water bottles, but I can't stress enough, they aren't large enough for full-sized water bottles to fit comfortably without falling out - my only other real complaint about the backpack. The main compartment does also have a space for plugging in a usb power bank (it doesn't *contain* one, you can just plug one in.) Then you can plug your own usb cable into the outside, and charge a phone that way. It's kind of a neat feature, though I don't really use it much. Works fine, though. It does fit comfortably on my back, with a decent amount of padding - we finally went on the Alaska cruise we booked in 2019, a couple months ago, I took it all over Alaska for a couple weeks, I can say, it's a lot more comfortable than my previous backpack. Feels a lot sturdier, too, though I haven't had it for a terribly long time, yet. I just wish I could find one like this, just slightly more padding for the laptop pouch. Overall, I'm happy with it, though - way happier than my previous one, though admittedly that's a low bar.

I previously used a one-strap briefcase bag to take to work, but the one strap ended up breaking and my bag - laptop included - hit the sidewalk. My laptop ended up cracked and dented, and I ended up devastated and embarrassed. I decided to finally shift to a backpack, because two straps would add some redundancy. in case of a malfunction. After researching dozens of bags, I chose this Kroser Travel Laptop Backpack. I went with the 17.3 inch because my largest laptop (my personal laptop) is 16", but I also have a 14" work laptop. Nearly none of the options I looked at seemed to have significant, thick padding in the laptop compartment, so I added a padded laptop sleeve and some towels in the bottom. The backpack itself seems pretty good. The most important compartment for me was the laptop compartment, and I was easily able to fit the laptop (in the sleeve) and a notebook. In the front pockets, I put some smaller items including phone chargers, pens, business cards. In the middle pocket (the one under the hardened shell, I store my lunch, medications, and other assorted items. I appreciate the size of the water bottle compartments on the side, as I usually have a larger (24-32) oz glass or plastic bottle. Mine fits perfectly! The backpack feels comfortable when wearing it. I appreciate the hardened steel cable in the middle of the main handle. With all of the above inside, it stands on its own (which my briefcase never did). I wish there were more color options for the 17.3. I was hoping for black-on-black, but that was only available in the largest size, which I felt was overkill. I was going for subtlety for this backpack because I will be wearing it at work (shirt and tie environment). However, the red accents at least match my company's logo! I have no interest in using the USB charging cord or hard-shell case at the top, but these are nice features for those who may be interested in it. I wish this (and all other laptop backpacks) had crazy, bulky thick compartments, but this one seemed most versatile, and I found ways to improve the padding on this one. Overall, I am happy with this.

I had been searching for a large, high-quality backpack suitable for travel for a long time, and after years of looking, I finally found the perfect one. This backpack is very spacious and thoughtfully designed, with plenty of pockets and compartments that make organizing easy. The bottle holders are especially useful, and the shoulder straps are comfortable even when the bag is fully packed. The design is practical and stylish, and it truly feels like money well spent. Highly recommend!

This backpack is AMAZING! Such great quality with allll of the pockets! I love this for traveling between my work sites. I can literally fit my laptop, 2 iPads, phone, working files, planner, pens, sunglasses, reading glasses, lunch, snacks, water bottles, keys AND I still have room. I was very pleasantly surprised!
