It's comfortable on my shoulder, easy to carry, and does everything I could ask from an everyday laptop case. I should be thankful for the two years of good use, but I'm bothered because I still have this great bag that's unusable because I use both the handle and the carrying strap daily. My 15.4" laptop slips into place easily, stays snug.
This week, the top handle finally came apart where the handle connects to the case. So if you're looking for something to use on a daily basis, you might look elsewhere (I'm trying a Wenger next). It's frustrating because the bag is still wonderful, but it's no longer feasible to carry via the top handle.
I've had this bag for just under two years now, and I use it daily for work. However, maybe 6-9 months ago, I noticed the "leather" starting to crack and tear along the handle and at the connection point where the carrying strap meets the bag - the most used/active spots other than the main zipper. But if you want a great bag for occasional use or even travel, this would be a good choice.
The inside pockets hold nearly all my peripherals and cords, I can slip a couple of small-ish files into the back pocket, and the front pocket carries all kinds of pens, paper, a calculator, and other small doo-dads. The bag itself still looks great, cleans up easily when necessary, and has held up wonderfully through everyday use and even some air travel.
If you are going to carry it more than a few times a month, it is probably not the case for you because of it lack of durability. At the right price (under $30) I would recommend it more for protection and storage of accessories. > As other reviewers have noted, the fake leather that attached the handle and strap to the case started tearing after a few months.> I purchased it in September 2008 for 26.99 plus shipping. There is probably a better price out there than $110.00 I definitely can't recommend it at that price.> The configuration of compartments is great.
and froze in disbelief as the price tag has become $110. I purchased this lovely laptop case at Amazon for $31.99 in June 2006, and it served me perfectly. I can't afford it anymore. Sorry. About two months ago, I thought it was about time to buy the next one, checked on it, and the price was $34 or so. Today, I decided to order it, opened Amazon.
i would certainly recommend it to others i am very much satisfied by the laptop bag i received.
I just wish I had more space to carry school books in it also to keep me from carrying an extra book bag. The notebook case is just what I needed to tote my laptop and a few of my very important files.
