I ordered the Laurex bag, loved the bag layout, and liked the outside design.
Whan the bag came, before class, opened the box to use it that night and was very disappointed. The laptop fit in the sleeve but when place inside the bag there was no room left for anything else. My hand could hardly fit down into the pockets on either side and the power cord would NOT fit in the bag.For the laptop to fit it pushed out the ends of the bag, making the inside very narrow, hence nothing would fit down either side of the laptop. The bag is very well padded however that padding takes away from the useable space. My laptop was 14.5" a 15.6 screen. I would not but this bag for anything over a 14" screen.
PLEASE NOTE: the bottom of the bag is about 3.5" wide but on the top it narrows to about 2", hence you have only narrow slits down either side pocket. A book would never fit, a notebook would not fit.
Great bag is you don't want to put a laptop in it, especially if you take out the removeable laptop sleeve.

The bag needs to be at least 16.5" to 17" so that the laptop and padding leave
for the rest of the bag to function.
Hope they make the bag a little longer, over 16", so it will function. It has a great layout and very well made.

High quality laptop bag. This bag is durable, has plenty of space for your laptop accessories, and most of all good looking. Purchased for my 13 inch macbook air. Highly recommend purchasing an envelope to protect your macbook air from sliding around within the bag because the notebook is so slim, however I would recommend this product to all of my friends.

My Dell XPS M1530 15.4" laptop fits perfectly in this bag. (One reviewer complained that the laptop pushed out the sides. My laptop does not push out the sides.) I can also carry the power adapter, my Bible and my Kindle in the main compartment, and my Beth Moore Bible study workbook (about 11" x 8.5" x 0.5") fits in the zippered pocket (although I cannot zip it.) There are also several other small pockets in the front, in addition to a narrow pocket (could accommodate a legal pad or a puzzle magazine) on the back.
On the back is a small carrying handle - if you don't want to use the shoulder strap. This carries the bag slightly off-kilter because there is not a handle on the front, but it is not too bad.
This would make a good book bag if you don't carry your laptop. If you carry your laptop without the power adapter, you can also carry a binder.
A small thing - the interior is gold colored. Silver would have suited it better, but it is still nice.
I was looking for a pretty, sturdy, well-made laptop bag - this one suits me well.

This is exactly what I wanted. It does not have a lot of extra room for anything other than my laptop a a thin notebook, but that was what I expected from readign the earlier reviews. It is well made and travels well.

This bag is fine if you do not want to carry a laptop in it with other things. As soon as you put the laptop in there, there is no room for anything else. I am returning it.

I really was excited to receive this Laptop bag in the mail. It's very cute and has lots of space to store stuff other than the laptop itself. The only thing I was suprised to see is that the inside of the bag is light brown color. I had assumed that the interior would be black like the outside of the bag. Not too big of a deal though. Overall, I love this messenger bag!
