Pacific Design PD0198 Pacific Design Action II

I travel frequently, and always have to carry my laptop. So I'm always looking for a better case. First, I tried a messenger bag. Result? Sore shoulders and a sore back. Then I tried a wheeled bag. Result? Lots of inconvenience when I wasn't actually in the airport. Then I tried a backpack. Result? Less inconvenience, but still the sore shoulders and back after spending a couple hours wandering the airport after check in or during a layover.

Now I've got this beauty!

When I want the backpack, I have it. When I'm tooling around the airport and wheels make sense, I have them.

And there are many, many pockets. Including one on the upper left that's just perfect for tossing coins, the cell phone, etc. inside just before going through security. There's even more than enough room for two Eagle Creek packing cubes one for the laptop accessories, another for at least a days worth of clothes.

The material seems durable, though the zippers may be a bit flimsy. And the watertight bottom is a definite bonus.

I strongly recommend this one, though I had multiple problems purchasing it via the marketplace companies. You may save some money, but I'd recommend going straight to Pacific Design (you'll find them on the web). They're a great company to work with, and if you do experience delays will honor the lifetime guarantee promptly.

Though perhaps not the very best product. I have found a few loose seams, but overall it is a nice quality. It is large and has plenty of nice pouches.

I purchased this backpack so that I could easily bring my 17.3" laptop and all of my tools and utilities with me as I went from customer site to customer site. It worked quite well at first, but after a couple of months I noticed some of the seams coming undone. Several times I had to have the pack repaired and completely gave up on it after about a year. The fabric is very strong and has no problems with the elements, but the seams are poorly designed thus causing the entire product to fail.

I bought this product a couple months ago. Initially I was very pleased: A lot of room and pockets, fit my big 'ol laptop.

However in the past month its really started falling apart. I'll admit that I'm rough on my bag, but I bought this one expecting durability. The plastic strap clips are busting on me and the telescopic handle just popped off on me when I rolled it over an indentation.

Three weeks ago it would have gotten four or five stars (four because I'm not crazy about the sickly gray color of it). Now two, because i did get a couple months of rough use out of it, but i just expected more.
