Kensington K62533US Contour Balance Notebook Roller Bag in Onyx, Fits Most 15-Inch Notebooks

Have owned this bag for about 2 years and thought I'd weigh in on it. I use this bag weekly for business travel and the two things that drew me to it were the light weight (empty) and the design/colors it's not your typical black rolling laptop bag.

Pros: It's cute, have gotten many compliments on it.

It's relatively light, though when loaded with a laptop and other essentials, it's still 12+ pounds.

The side pocket for water or soda outstanding functional design, folds in, secures with internal magnet when not in use

Multiple organization sections room for files, section for pens, larger area for bulkier things, i.e., power cord, makeup bag, etc.

Fits in every overhead bin I've encountered (small regional planes) but not under all seats.

My Dell laptop fits perfectly in the padded section, zipper design allows for fast, easy access at airports.

Cons: The single stem retractable handle looks cool but makes it impossible to set another bag on top flips off to the side.

The side bottle pocket fabric is starting to shred lighter nylon fabric is not as sturdy.

The wheels are now very noisy going to try some WD40 to see if that helps but it's very annoying.

The retractable handle stops at each section don't hold the handle up anymore.

If you have a lot of things in the front sections, it tends to tip forward the stabilizer bar on the bottom front should be taller.

The contour factor for carrying would be great if there was any way to attach a shoulder strap, but there isn't. The mfg. literature says it comes with

a shoulder strap but it doesn't they use the same literature for their smaller shoulder bag.

I'm now looking to replace this bag because of the noisy wheels and the shredding fabric. Nothing I'm finding comes close to the storage and fun factor of this bag, but the fact that I can't sit a smaller bag (purse) on top of it while pulling (the single stem doesn't work for that, smaller bag flips off to one side or other) would be enough to keep me from purchasing this bag again.

I was looking for a rolling laptop bag that looks like a women's tote when carried and was so thrilled to find this one. It looks great and and hold much more than it looks like it would. I love the water bottle holder. There is room for files and notebooks, a small make up bag and purse. Seems very durable too. Please note: there is no shoulder strap as the described.

I finally found a stylish and functional solution! Everyone who sees this wants one. It is small enough to easily manuever but at the same time has plenty of room for all of my stuff. It carries a ton of weight easily and the wheels are large and roll well even over uneven surfaces and curbs. The handle is study and doesn't twist or flex. The side cup holder folds shut and secures with a magnet when not in use. I have never had this bag perform the dreaded side roll or tip while I am walking along. It moves very smoothly and, a huge plus, is super quite even on tiled surfaces. The way it is made it doesn't bump into your legs while you carry it by the double strap handle. I can't think of anything that could be added to this bag to make it any more functional or attractive. I am in love! I am planning to order another one of these just in case they ever stop making them. The price is more than a steal when compared to other bags of MUCH less quality! If you need a rolling bag, buy this one!

This is a good-looking feminine bag. I've had it a week here are my thoughts.

Pros:

Cute

Lots of places to stash small goodies (newspapers, magazines, pens, kleenex)

Slim look handle

Clear wheels

Cons:

Handle a bit tricky to extend/put back; wobbly

No shoulder strap, no hooks for a strap should you want one

A bit on the heavy side for such a small bag (5 lb 5 oz)

Not at all quiet on asphalt

Magnetic-closed bag straps are about 2-3" too short to allow carrying it comfortably on the shoulder, so not at all sure why the "Air-Flo Contour (TM) Panel" is even there to "dissipate heat and hug the body for greater comfort." This is the biggest reason it lost a star (along with no shoulder strap). It's awkward to carry.

The video is simply a quick and dirty look at the bag's configuration:

front pocket for pens and stuff with zipper pocket

large outside slip magazine pocket

larger zippered pocket with divider (same depth as the magazine pocket = 0)

main zippered pocket with quilted notebook holder I put a tape dispenser in the bottom to show the depth available (my laptop is in the bag)

bottle holder on the outside with magnets to keep it closed when not in use

zippered handle storage

zippered back compartment with four elasticized mesh pockets this is 2-2.5" deep and is divided by the handle

smaller outside slip magazine pocket

Largest dimensions: 17.75 W x 7.25 D x 14.75 T inches (without straps)

I have used a number of computer bags over the years and needed to convert to a wheeled version for ergonomic reasons. I disliked many of the options because they not only looked heavy and industrial but were just stiff and klunky to use. This one is nice looking, light and practical. The pockets are a nice combination for papers and notebooks as well as cords, thicker items that need a bit more space and protection. It's easy to access all of the pockets. I showed up at my office with it(healthcare field) and 3 of my coworkers immediately went and purchased it as well. We could use some other colors so they don't get mixed up. By the way, I took it on vacation recently and it also fits nicely under the seat on planes. I haven't found anything I dislike about it yet.
