5.0 out of 5 stars Big backpack with plenty of room - exceptional quality!, February 16, 2009

This review is from: Lowepro Transit Notebook Backpack - fits most 17" Laptops (Personal Computers)
This is one of those products that looks like it got a lot of attention during the design stage. Every feature makes sense, and the best words I can use to describe the bag are "intelligent" and "thoughful."

The fit and finish are flawless, as you would expect from Lowepro. They seem to use only top-shelf fabric and hardware for their bags, and this one is no exception. The zippers are serious and smooth, and the stitching is laser-straight.

Frankly, I'm kind of surprised by the other reviews that suggest this is an undersized bag. It fits my gigantic 17" HP laptop with room to spare, and that's saying something! Even with my enormous laptop inside, there's lots of extra room for all the accessories, chargers, camera, papers, and junk I always carry around. If there's a roomier bag out there, I'd like to see it--yet this one carries like a much smaller bag. That's a sure sign of good design.

I couldn't be more pleased with this bag. I spent more for the Lowepro reputation, but I feel like I'm being rewarded for that decision every day. This is a GREAT backpack!

4.0 out of 5 stars Big Laptops WILL NOT FIT - but a very good bag, November 13, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lowepro Transit Notebook Backpack - fits most 17" Laptops (Personal Computers)
I bought this bag because the title says fits most 17" laptops.

I read the reviews before buying and some said their 17" laptop fit and some said it didn't. Well this bag is top quality - but it will never hold a standard 17" laptop. My Acer was two inches too long to go in the laptop pouch and an inch too wide to go in the generic pouch.

The kicker is that the maker tags on the bag clearly state "Will fit most 15.4" laptops". I never would have selected this one if those tags had appeared in the photos. If I had been searching for a bag for a smaller notebook, this would have been an excellent find. But since this purchase was supposed to be for my new Acer 17.3 inch, 8 pound monster laptop, it utterly fails. The Acer won't go into the dedicated, well padded laptop pouch and it won't go into the generic pouch designed to hold the various accessories like mice, power bricks and media.

So my daughter gets a great laptop backpack, and I go back to looking.

This review is from: Lowepro Transit Notebook Backpack - fits most 17" Laptops (Personal Computers)
It fits my macbook pro 17" just fine. It's funny - it's got an interior compartment which doesn't really fit the macbook really well. But then it's got another, really well padded zipper that runs right up the side. This compartment is not in the main area, but rather, right against your back. That part fits the macbook really well, and you don't even know it's there. It's like a little secret compartment. This leaves the rest of the bag free to put other things. If I had a complaint, it would be that the bag could be bigger. I'm 6'3" and this bag feels a bit small to me. I wouldn't mind if it was about 15% bigger.
