Expandable Trek BP Steel Blue  

I am amazed at the difference in quality offered by this bag. Obviously a lot of design and engineering thought went into it. I am 59 and have degenerative disc and joint disease. I wanted a backpack but did not think that I would
be successful in one for my laptop that would allow me to carry weight without pain. I am able to do so with this bag, plus the designers seem to have thought of everything without adding unneeded trivialities which only add
weight . Thank you for a great product!

This is a most sturdy and versatile backpack for your laptop. It has plenty of protection to sustain shock from all sides. The video that Amazon has from Brenthaven has to be one of the most convincing and funny videos that I've seen. Granted, it's more of a personal update from the old Samsonite commercials, but this is funny and scary because most notebook owners want to protect their computer. How scary can it get than by having someone with the daring to literally drop the backpack with the laptop inside and guarantee that it's ok? OK that's the sale/pitch, but when you see the backpack with it's cushions and pocket capacity there's some proof. Would I drop deliberately drop my backpack? No! But if I have such an accident, the sturdiness of the backpack gives me a lot of assurance as opposed to others that I've observed. Should you want even more security you might want to get Brenthaven's sleeve, it too, is sturdy and better than most out there... Brenthaven backpack PLUS the sleeve. That's SUPER. Sure it's overprotective, but you made an investment for your laptop, so invest in a backpack/case that really protects it.

For years I have been looking for a replacement of my old almost ideal backpack that I used to carry things to and from work. I need multiple pockets and above all storage placed halfway the backpack (so that you don't end with everything on the bottom and thus a bulky backpack). I just bought a new backpack that was 75% ok the day before I went to Europe, but decided to start using it upon return. Then, while in Europe, I saw this Brenthaven backpack by pure coincidence. It was absolutely perfect! I brought back the backpack I just had bought and ordered the Brenthaven online through Amazon. Have had it now for over a month and recommend it without any hesitation.

I have owned this backpack for over two years now (got it when it first came out) and it is everything listed and more. I work in the IT industry and carry my laptop back and forth to work every day. The expandable pocket is great to hold stuff for a weekend or overnight trip and all the extra pockets fit the bill. I don't know how I would feel about the front flap folding down (mine lifts up) but it probably makes a better use of the space. If you have any doubts read some of the testimonials at [...] to hear some of the stories. These bags have survived accidents, falls, and numerous other things and yet both the bag and the contents survive. I am buying one for my Mom for her birthday because anyone who needs to carry their laptop daily (she teaches and travels) must have one. This item gets a 12 out of 10 rating from me!

This is absolutely the best laptop bag I have ever used. I work for a large medical device company evaluating laptop bags for our company and have tried almost all of the major brands of backpacks, and this is the best by far for everyday use. It will handle an additional projector or laptop with ease. Plenty of room for files and the assorted "junk" that always accumulates in your bag. But there is a pocket or pouch for everything to keep it organized

This backpack is perfect for anyone who is especially concerned with the safety of their laptop. I especially recommend it for students or anyone who also needs to carry around books, electronics, and whatever you like to have with you at all times. This is my second brenthaven and I cant stress enough how confident I feel in the quality of these backpacks.

I did a lot of research on looking for a bag for my 15" Dell Laptop. This bag is great and has exceeded all my expectations. A 15" laptop will fit snuggly but it fits okay. The padding, zippers and material is high quality. I travel internationally on business and this is the perfect bag for that. I like also the feature of the front clasp that you can connect to keep the shoulder straps more forward while you are walking with it. It is a great bag.

The Brenthaven Expandable Trek for notebook computers was a perfect selection on my part to use when I went on Vacation. Its extremely sturdy and durable and very expandable to hold all my accessories and cables that I need to have with me. I highly reccomend it to all.

I have had this backpack for 2 years now. Overall I am very happy with it and will use it for many more years. It has been durable and held up very well. I am a graphic art student who also works as a 3D design artist outside of school. Because of this my office is actually in my bag, my computer just comes out to different work stations at home, work, or school. It more than adequately holds my computer safely, as well as numerous large texts books and notebooks in the largest compartment alone. The additional large compartment holds medium to small books as well as my wireless keyboard. Holds small things well and also has places for mouse, pens, cables, ect. Keeps me very organized. The only thing I can really complain about is the lack of a secure way to carry a water bottle. There are places I think Brenthaven thinks are for drinks, but they aren't adequate to keep them from falling out randomly. Not a huge factor in the bigger picture.

This is a really nice bookbag. I use it for college and it's been really durable and has kept my precious macbook very safe! This is a good buy!
