CalPak Bleacher Rolling Backpack

I have just received this bag today. When I was looking, it was only offered in purple but it was suitable for what I wanted and a good price. I was specifically interested in a bag that did not exceed l8 inches in height and spent a lot of time looking. This stated that it was l8 x l3 x 8 and, it is true, the bag portion is this size. However, airlines and tour companies count the whole height including the handle and the wheels. This bag is 20 inches high so is not what I wanted as a carry on where the size is specified by the tour company. Its still looks like an excellent bag at a very good price. It is nicer than bags I've paid more for many times. I like having the cover that comes across the wheels and conceals them when I'm carrying it as a backpack. When rolling it I can use this little pocket to store things. Also the handle recesses which I prefer. The wheels are a nice size. Some backpacks have small wheels that don't work as well. The zippers are recessed behind fabric which makes them harder to reach and to unzip. I will still use it a lot but will not be able to use it for what I ordered it for which was to take to Croatia with me as my carry on bag.

I am a bit surprised how cheep this product is. I read some reviews that made it sound like it was an amazing product but what I am experiencing is an uncertanty of how long this product will last. I have to slam my hand down on the handle a few times to get it to collapse, the zippers stick requiring both hands to zip and unzip them, and the construction is full of uncertainty. Every time I use it I wonder if it isn't going to fall apart on me by the end of the day. I gave this product 1 star for room, it has a ton of pockets and ample space for all of my daily needs. A second star was given because it is serving its purpose and a third star was given because it has surprised me that it is still serving its purpose. It would have received a fourth start if it were built better and a fifth star if I were 100 percent satisfied with it.

Love that it came in my favorite color, purple! It rolls easily, no matter what the weather is through snow, too! We did have to replace one screw that came stripped out, but otherwise works great. I've had it about a year, and the drink holder on the outside is showing some wear, where the netting is starting to tear. Not sure what I will do when that part is no longer usable, since I use it all the time. I love being able to roll this around, because there are days when I have more than one class and all the books I need to carry get very heavy.

My daughter loved the rolling backpack. The size is great, however, the handle can't retract all the way after one week of use.

Not impressed with this at all. The handle was assembled so bad that it would not even stay in an upright position. Never used, returned it.
