After seeing hundreds of positive reviews for this bag, it was an easy decision for me to choose it. It was stylish, functional, and overall a great price.

With that said, I only got to experience using my bag once because by the end of my trip, my bag was essentially in pieces. I used this bag for a work trip to Italy to carry my laptop and charger, some noise canceling headphones, snacks, and a scarf for when it was cold. All in all, my backpack was pretty full, but by no means weighed an extraordinary amount. At no point did the contents of my bag exceed 15lbs.

See from the pictures, my bag was falling apart. First, the material near the draw string ripped and frayed the first day. Next, I noticed the grommet had become unattached to the material, and the material began ripping there as well. At one point I was in a rush to leave, and picked up my bag quickly with one strap, and the strap nearly tore off. Finally, by the end of the trip, the laptop padding was coming out of the stitching.

If this is the quality of their product, I couldn't possibly recommend it. It can't take any abuse and has zero durability. My hope is that I had a defective product, and I am one of very few that didn't enjoy this product's full potential.
