Amazon Basics Carry-On Travel Backpack with Carrying Handle, Padded Shoulder Straps, Sternum and Waist Belt and 15-Inch Laptop Sleeve, One Size

I needed a new bag and ordered one of these. As soon as it arrived, it was obvious it was going to be a great bag and so, naturally, my son stole it. I ordered a second one - don't worry.Great value for money, well made and with carry handles plus rucksack straps which can be hidden away.The quality of the fabric is good and I suspect it will last a good number of years, the pockets are well padded with a top smaller pocket, ideal for documents and small items. Next to that is the laptop pocket which will take a full sized laptop although I use a Surface which the bag swallowed. There is room for two devices or a device and documents/folder/notebook.The main luggage area is enough for a man to carry two or three weeks worth of stuff - women, maybe a week, we all know what you're like. It's a good size with a net zip pocket and with careful packing fits everything you would need. My son and I used ours on a week's trip to Morocco and the Sahara and everything easily fit.The final pocket is really only for the straps to be hidden away, but it will also take items whilst the straps are not in use. I wouldn't recommend putting anything important in this part of the bag because the zip is open when the straps are being used, so not as secure.There is also an expansion zip for the main compartment so that you can fit more in. However, be warned; if you intend to take the bag as cabin baggage, especially on Ryanair, using the expansion will take the bag over the minimum dimensions. However, we noticed that as we wore them like a rucksack, no one gave our bags a second glance - they are at the limit of the dimensions and we thought we might get checked. However, they fitted, when full into the Ryanair cages used to check bag sizes, so it was all good.Sits well on your back when carrying it and has carry handles like a suitcase to carry it vertically or horizontally.All in all, a great purchase and fully recommended.Only downside is having two identical bags we sometimes got mixed up - different colours might be nice.

Have used this on Ryan air and aer Lingus , ethihad and several Asian airlines as my under the seat bag - is perfect. Is the right size for a weekend away, assuming you use a packing compression cube and your liquids are all in small tubes . I actually have gone to warm destinations for almost a week with this bag. It’s comfortable to wear , zip is good , weight is perfect . We actually have 3 of them o. The house and between us all the bags have travelled extensively last year - zero problems . If there was a wish list I would wish the waterproof pouch at front could hold more . Best purchase I ever made on Amazon .

This is a well made bag with all the features that you would expect in a back pack. The straps are comfortable , zips appear to be heavy duty as does the material. Compression straps and chest strap all suitable positioned and generally a good product. However the one serious defect is that it is too big for an airline cabin bag as it is too long, 55cm and would be easily spotted by airline staff. If they made the same bag but 45 cm long it would be an ideal cabin bag and I would buy it. Unfortunately because of this I have had to reluctantly return it.

Had some weeks now. It's good; rough and tough and tons of zips and pockets.

Nice and well made, I do like it very much. It is bigger than the recommended size for Easy Jet, but I am relying in others reviews and I will try in my next trip. Highly recommended, you won’t be disappointed.

I was initially a bit concerned that the "Amazon Basics" moniker might imply inferior quality.However my fears were quite unfounded and this really is a very well made, and practical bag.You can have it on a single shoulder strap, or wear packpack style. There's also some straps look like they would do for fastening to a baggage trolley.Perfect for short trips, as there's easily enough room for 3/4 days worth of clothes.For this trip, the bag wasn't bought for carrying a laptop, however I found that the internal the laptop compartment will securely take a 17" laptop (i.e. the computer is fully covered and the retaining strap will fasten). This is bigger than the 15" in the description, and I would suggest Amazon update their advertisement. Particularly when I've just returned a supposedly 17" laptop rucksack, which turned out would only fit a smaller machine.Overall, very impressed.

Bag is perfect. Has more space and the quality is amazing.

We bought these to use on a European rail trip. Very versatile and well made and enabled us to carry all we needed within the baggage size limits when using Ouigo high speed trains.
