This backpack is great. It's really confortable in my back and shoulders, has a lot of pockets to carry a lot of different size things, the colors and fabric are wonderful and it's really girly.
17" laptop fits perfectly, plenty of space left. You can also put in there your charger, mouse, mousepad, maybe one or two books, cellphone, keys, wallets and probably some more things.
It cames with a little bag to store little things, such as pen, pendrive, or some other device.

Excellent purchase.

My first thoughts when I opened the box was that the gray color looks much different than what I was expecting. It's quite a bit lighter than the picture illustrates. I'd compare it to a dirty cubicle gray. It's not ugly or anything, it's just not what I was hoping for. Also the pink is a little lighter than the picture shows, but it's cute. I am going to send some images of the pack, maybe it will help someone. As far as the quality of the bag, it looks great. It's a few inches longer than an average school backpack, but it's slimmer. You won't be able to pack anything bulky (like a lunch bag/box) in this pack. But there is plenty of room for small accessories, and flat things like notebooks or small books.

I just got this bag so I cannot fully rate its performance. But so far I am happy with my purchase. I previously owned Swiss Pegasus computer backpack, but the strap broke after a year. So when looking for a backpack, I wanted one a bit more feminine. This one fits the bill and is reasonable priced. It is also lighter than the Swiss Pegasus and sits on my back comfortable.

I have a 17in Toshiba Satellite and it fits in my bag with room to spare. I was concerned as the product description did not mention if it would fit a 17in screen laptop.

The 17-inch Belkin backpack I ordered is huge... bigger than I expected it to be. I'm 5'10" and "curvy" in shape, and my husband teases me when I wear it, calling it my "jet pack." It's huge! Thankfully, all that room doesn't translate into something that looks bulky -- it's more flat and wide than thick (the picture is accurate only if the backpack is full, in my opinion). But I appreciate all the room it allows for both my laptop and related accessories (adaptor, mouse, VOIP headset), as well as my workout clothes and sneakers. I hardly ever use the zipper pouch, but that's because there's so much room I never need to. Plenty of pockets on the inside make for great ways to hide jewelry/ID when i go to the gym. And there's a soft pad insert inside the laptop pocket area to protect from scratches/hard bumps, which I appreciate.

If you're smaller/shorter, consider the same bag in the smaller size. I recommend this size for a bigger person who wants a feminine-style backpack. This bag is going to be perfect for my next airline trip! Due to the color, I would not recommend this gray/flamingo pink bag to someone who is concerned about it getting dirty (not for camping, hiking, etc), but for the casual user, student, worker who needs to haul around work laptop, etc, I highly recommend it.

I can't express enough about how pleased I am with this laptop bag! it hs more than enough room for my books and it provides protection for my laptop, I'm real picky about my laptop and this bag provides a soft compartment for it so it doesn't scratch it! I have a 17" Dell and it feels like it weighs a ton, but when I carry it in this bag it seems to be weightless! I would recommend this item to anyone who is looking for one.

I have a large laptop for work and it was killing my back in my other bag. I also had a rolling bag for a while but that is a pain when you are also rolling a suitcase. This bag solved that problem for me and it is stylish. For the price, I am thinking about buying another one just in case I rough this one up too much.

My zipper broke after the first few days of use. I had my laptop, power cord and a few pens stored. This product definitely needs a quality check.

I searched everywhere for a good, solid, lightweight laptop backpack...this is it!

There are so many useful compartments, the laptop area is really soft and feels it would protect the laptop really well from scratches etc. I don't understand the "dirty cubicle" remark about the colour. The pale grey (excuse my British spelling, just can't help myself) is much nicer than a darker, more boring/business shade and looks really nice with the pale pink. I love this backpack and I am not usually too bothered about this type of product. It even has a little zipper pouch for additional accessories. Really can't fault it and surprised anyone else can ($20 for goodness sake, get some perspective people!!)

This is a good bag. My wife has a 17 inch laptop that she needs to carry to and from work. She is very petite and I was a little worried that this bag would drown her. It doesn't. Its streamlined so although its plenty large enough for the laptop it doesn't seem overbearing. It doesn't have a ton of extra room it fits her accessories and a couple small notepads but that's it. The color is lighter then the original picture but thanks to the uploaded pictures we knew that going in.

It's an amazing backpack. Very light but spacious. The only thing is that it is a little big (as it is customized for a 17"), so if you want a bag for 15", maybe you might want to go for a smaller bag. Nevertheless, my girlfriend bought this bag for her 15" bag and she loves it.
