As a frequent business traveler I am always looking to carry on the most amount of "stuff" that still meets the rules of the airlines.  I have a nice Travelpro carryon for the overhead compartment, so I figured this would be a nice upgrade from my small duffel to fit under the seat in front of me... I was wrong.

The bag itself is made with quality material - in the one business trip I have used it for, I didn't feel at all like there was a lack of quality.  BUT..  There are some issues with it...

It does fit under seats... I should say most seats, but with airlines adding entertainment boxes, USB chargers etc under the seats, it takes up the room that this bag needs.  My outbound flight - it fit with no problem... on my way home, there was a box of some sort under the seat and it wouldn't fit.  I got a nasty look from the flight attendant as I put a second bag up above.

The worst thing about this bag is that on the bag it is marketed as a large cosmetic bag according to the labels... opening the bag you see why.  Several plastic pouches taking up precocious room.  One layer of the pouches can be removed, while the row on the bottom of the bag (When laying down) can not, and it drastically reduces the space of the bag.  I can fit more in my smaller tote than I can in this bag because of the non removable pouches.

Sadly because it was a longer trip that I took a few weeks after purchasing the bag it is outside the return window.  If you are looking for a large toiletry bag (Which you really couldn't carry on a plane anyway if you have liquids in it) this is a great bag. If you are looking to fit a lot of stuff in this bag - it simply won't work due to the design and the pouches..
