Is that the kind of situation where you want to have to worry about your cheap bag bursting?

I use this bag (v2) daily as my work bag and personal item when flying for work. Works great, over a year and over a dozen flights. It's not made for applications requiring extensive durability- but for my uses it's more than enough. Ended up buying more for the family, and will prob grab another just to see what version 3 is all about lol. recommended.

love the extra thick top handle, and the second front zippered section with the pen/etc holder pouches.

(edit to say i put my 16" mbp m2max in a laptop sleeve in the backpack and it works great)

Not really. It's a fairly slim bag with padding for a laptop. Probably better off with something like this https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ozark-...471296137?

Got this over the summer for same price. Its ok quality, but my wife loved it for our 10 YO old to use as school bag. She was right, it is good as a school bag that will be abused for a year. Its holding up well.

This is my daily back pack for work and I also used it during an international trip. Worked great and had no issues. Love it.

Been using this for about 2 months now but just for small stuff i take to work.. Don't know if i would trust it with my macbook. This has plenty of pockets, more than i actually use. For the price, can't complain.

Thanks! In for one. I have a Targus bag now that I just love but it is now over 15 years old and been so abused. Would love to find the same bag. Have my doubts that this bag will be as high of quality as the one I am using today. It was also way more expensive.
