UrbanSport Wheeled Rolling Student School Backpack

I have to admit, I was a little worried about this from the reviews I read. I called the company and talked to one of their reps (extremely nice person named Mawar, ask for her if you ever call!) She said that the supplier they used to use was indeed providing low quality bags, but they found a new factory that made the same bag that was a lot better. So I gave it a try. Turns out she was right! When I first got it, I beat the snot out of it. Yanked on the handle, pulled on the pockets and tried to break the plastic thingies on the straps. It held up. And is still holding up a few months later. no problems whatsoever with it. IMO the new ones of these are well worth the money spent.

I bought this backpack in the fall of 2009 for my 8 year old son. He's already getting homework and he needed something that was versatile enough that he could roll it or carry it, based on the weight on any given day.

Well, he rolled it around for about 3 weeks and the handle came apart. What's interesting is that 3 of his classmates have the same backpack and the same thing happened to them as well. In fact, one of them suffered the same fate in just 2 weeks of use.

This meant he had to wear it like a regular backpack permanently. No problem, right? No, big problem. After another 3 weeks one of the straps broke. So now its a one strapped backpack with no handle for rolling.

It's also worth noting that you child WILL be able to feel the metal handle through the pack when its on their back. That means it will hurt MORE than a regular backpack when they wear it.

It has lots of pockets and what not, but the outer fabric gets frayed and ripped pretty easily.

All in all, its a piece of junk. Maybe the worst backpack I've ever seen or had the misfortune to pay for...buyer beware.

Thank goodness I found this backpack. I do a lot of canvassing and without this, it would make my job a little harder. Very easy to maneuver and it holds all my essentials. Pull out handle feels very sturdy and backpack straps are comfy. Couldn't ask for a better product. Thanks!
