Ranked #250 - Laptop Packs and Bags
December 18, 2009
Yeah so... this is my first Timbuk2 bag. I know lots of people with them, but I finally caved and bought one. First, it's a really SWEET bag. Good quality product. You can tell from the high quality material and the stitching. No cheaping out with materials. Oh yeah, I kept reading reviews on people whining and complaining about their 17 inch laptops not fitting. Okay, I'm not sure which bag you got, but it wasn't this one. This bag has LOTS of space for a 17 inch widescreen laptop which is what I have. I have a BULKY HP dv6000. Much fatter than the Apples and as big as most laptops out there. I have NO, I repeat NO trouble getting my laptop in and out. In fact, even after getting my laptop into the sleeve, there is still A LOT OF ROOM LEFT on all sides of the laptop pocket. So I'm not sure how much crack people really are doing (those that commented on this at least). All in all a great product! The only thing I thought that was weird was that the key loop was on the bottom. That's kind of not a good place to put it since car keys have plastic handles and are prone to being busted up if you put your bag on the ground and people step on it (or if you step on it). 5/5 stars!
