LOVE this bag!, November 27, 2008
I have this in black.
Really nice leather. Looks stylish and feminine, and also boardroom-ready. My 17" laptops fit inside fine. Laptop protection is fine. Telescoping handle/wheels work well. A great change from lugging shoulder bags. I love it!
I haven't detached it more than a couple of times. Nice to have that option, especially in stormy weather.
The wheel assembly doesn't add a particularly insane amount of weight. It goes up/down stairs fine in a pinch.
I do not plan take this through airports on a regular basis. The stiff leather seems pretty durable, but more pretty than bulletproof.
Be aware:
- The black one comes w/VERY red piping. The black leather has a matte finish.
- The orange one is CONSTRUCTION ORANGE. This color comes with a lovely pearlescent finish, but it does glow in the dark like a traffic cone. I wish they had gone with more of a blonde/natural leather color.
- I need more expansion space for papers + folders + adapter/cable.
Where to stash cables (if you carry lots of things with cables and chargers) is a challenge.
- After several months, the interior cloth dividing the laptop from the "everything else" side is getting a bit frayed on the sides where laptops have been pulled in/out daily. The lining is pretty but not durable.
- The rain-resistant cover (not shown in the photo but comes with it) has come in handy a few times but is inefficient/flimsy protection from a real downpour.
- Cel phone pocket won't nearly hold a Blackberry & is useless for nearly all other functions (minor annoyance); other pockets for stashing other small objects seem OK.

Beautiful Laptop Bag!, September 8, 2009
This is a beautiful laptop bag! The first time I used it I felt self-conscious wheeling it along behind me, it's so gorgeous.
The red is a deep, rich color, and the leather is high quality. The bag is very well made. My 16" Toshiba Satellite fits perfectly. There's room for a few miscellaneous items, as well as a couple of files and a notepad, so I was able to stash things in it and not have to bring my purse along too, although it was a snug fit.
It took me a few minutes to figure out how to unzip it from the wheeled platform, but it's actually easy to do. The wheels are smooth and it's easy to maneuver.
I can't think of anything not to like about this bag. I read a lot of reviews before I bought it, and I'm very happy with my purchase.

BRIGHT COLORED ROLLING BEAUTY, October 15, 2009
This review is from: McKlein USA W Series Willowbrook Leather Detachable - Wheeled Ladies' Case (Apparel)
I absolutely LOVE this BAG but I agree with C Turner, if you have a lot to carry it won't hold it.
I'm using it for very infrequent trips so it suits a DVD player and movies more than a laptop and all the accoutrement required if you are a heavy duty computer user. IT needs to be wider FRONT to BACK for that. Too much space is wasted at the back where the handle and cute rain cover are.
For plain old travel it is perfect for medicines, slippers, pens, pad of paper and a sandwich.
More so with its STUNNING COLORS, it is just plain pretty! I'm sick to no end of black and browns so this line suits me to a Tee. I like my luggage VISIBLE. That way if someone is running away with it, you can holler, "FOLLOW THE PERSON WITH THE KELLEY GREEN AND ORANGE LUGGAGE!" Orange referring to Titan's x2 suitcase line (sorry bright colors and great interior but not the least bit durable, broke in under one hour! during packing no less).
Indeed the RAIN COVER is a great dust cover only. Leather is silky/lovely and suits the price tag. Amazon's price is better than any on this item.
Now McKlein! "MAKE IT BIGGER", in those bright colors. ADD A LOCKING MECHANISM [why doesn't this thing lock at least like a brief case?] while you are at it and we can buy another one to hold a thermos AND a sandwich.
