Osprey Packs Quasar Daypack

Osprey Packs Quasar DaypackOsprey Quasar BackpackI've been using my Quasar as my everyday bag for almost a month now. I use this bag at work and at the gym, and weekend hikings with my wife. This bag is really comfortable compared to my columbia daypacks. I really like how low/thin profile the pack is even when loaded with considerable amount of stuff (about 15 lbs), of course with the help of 2 compression straps per side. I was planning to get the black color, but it wasn't available that time so I got the Ice blue instead. The more I use it, the more I love the color.

Some Pros to consider:

1) Great compression strap system

2) Ample main pocket/pouch space

3) YKK zippers all over with great pull design

4) Nice thick handle at the top

5) Laptop/Hydration bladder sleeve

6) Great organizational pockets

7) Side pockets can accommodate 1L Nalgene bottles

8) Great Osprey Warranty

Cons:

1) Waist belt is thin and not removable

2) Osprey packs are addicting (jk)

Thank you Osprey for carefully designing backpacks for us. I hope that your great warranty service will never change.

I have had this item for about 2 weeks and been using it casually when I commute on trains and walk around the city etc.

My only criticism, and this is true for many other packs, is that there needs to be some ventilation for the back, this item does have a mesh padded area that looks like hot air should be able to escape, but it just gets trapped, then you take it off and your back is covered in sweat.

This wouldn't be an issue in winter, but in mild to warm temperatures it does become a problem.

Apart from that, all the positive things people are saying about this pack is very accurate.

I was worried that this pack would be too large compared to other Osprey packs. It is super slim. The photo makes it look bulkier. THe best part about this pack is the straps. You can cinch the pack up tight or let it out and stuff it. There are great laptop sleeve and the chest and waist straps keep it cinched on you, which is great for me when I ride my bike down a trail to and from work every day. I got the fern green pack and thought the color might be offputting after a while. I like it the more I use it. Sturdy construction and well designed to breath, but dont expect it to breath much when you cinch it tight to your body. Great hiking day pack and tech/laptop bag. The only thing I was disappointed was the Osprey logo was not stitched in, but that doesnt really matter, just looked like it was stitched in the pictrue, it's vinyl.

I own Osprey hydration packs for mountain biking and they have held up under abuse and foul weather. I was in the market for a new day pack for commuting to work and did not hesitate to look for another quality Osprey product. The Quasar model had all of the features I was looking for and then some.

Wow, I bought this bag as a GO bag to keep in the car and to pull double duty as an extra carry on bag (meets the personal item requirement) when I travel. I haven't traveled with it yet but it holds my 15.6" hp laptop perfectly. The bag distributes weight across your shoulders and back especially when you connect the sternum strap. I really cannot think of anything that could be improved on this bag.

STM Bags Jacket Medium

STM dp-2142-2 Jacket Medium Sleeve, Fits Most 15-Inch Screens, Chocolate/OrangeI think it's ridiculous that I have to include 20 or more words to write a review. But I love this bag. It has a great color, it's lightweight, comfortable, and it protects my mac

I have a 14.5" Dell laptop that I use this bag for. It is nicely protected and the slide pocket on the outside fits an engineering pad and a couple of pens. The small pockets get a bit tight when the computer and documents are stowed but its not a big deal.

Please see the attached video review. This bag is definitely high quality and worth the money, but if you have a typical laptop (not an ultrabook/thin laptop), then it will be extremely snug.

The sleeve is very slim and well built. It's a great bag if you only want to carry your laptop and its charger. However, actually using it revealed a flaw that I just could not live with there is no handle on the top of the bag. This means when I go to pick it up, I have to either grab the shoulder strap and let the bag swing and dangle, or try to go for the side handle, which is recessed and not easy to grab. This seems like a minor annoyance, but gets old in daily usage. I kept tried to convince myself I can get used to it, but after nearly a month of trying, I gave up and returned the bag and got the Case Logic DLC-115 15.6-Inch Laptop and Tablet Briefcase (Black) instead.

I was looking to ditch my large leather briefcase for a much smaller way to carry my laptop and papers to and from work. The sleeve fits my 15" Dell perfectly and I can fit a couple of folders with a few papers in the large outside pocket (and sneak a couple more in with the computer inside if needed.) If you have a tablet with a cover you might be able to fit that in with your laptop (I have an iPad 2 with a cover which nests well enough with the laptop inside the bag.)

The outside slip pocket is big enough for a smartphone but not much else (it is angled but not zippered, so be aware of how you are orienting the sleeve when carrying it)

The larger zippered pocket is good for storing the straps if you are not using them, perhaps some headphones, pens and perhaps some change. It's not big so you may need to be picky when deciding what to put in there. My laptop's large cord with power block might fit in there, but I have concerns that the bulky power block could damage the thin screen side of the laptop if it was dropped or otherwise made firm contact with the screen side of the laptop.

This sleeve fit the bill perfectly for me. If you're a packrat or looking for something to carry your computer and lunch then this isn't the bag/sleeve for you otherwise it's perfect for those traveling light.

Duzign Harbor Backpack (Gray / Blue) for 13 Inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display + Front Pocket for

Duzign Harbor Backpack for 13 Inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display + Front Pocket for Apple iPadThe backpack looks great, its comfortable to wear, has plenty of space and holds my macbook safely but the front pocket designed for the iPad does not open wide enough to allow the ipad to be placed into it, a pretty big design flaw I feel.

It is a nice backpack, not overpriced, but the synthetic fabric it is made of in both body and handles feels like sandpaper. Not recommended for use when wearing bare shoulder clothing. I expected a nicer material.

Disney Princess and the Frog Tiana Fairy Tale Dreams School 16 Inch Backpack

Disney Princess and the Frog Tiana Fairy Tale Dreams School 16 Inch BackpackI brought the "Princess and the frog" bookbag because my daughter loves anything princess Tiana. For me the purchase choice was because it pictured a African American character, there's not many African American character in our society. Anyway, what I really like about the bookbag Is how many pockets for many different uses, as well as how secure the straps is on my daughter back. I would recommend this bookbag, it is worth every penny :-)

Microsoft MT Ladies Tote for 15.6-Inch Laptops (Blue Trim)

Microsoft MT Ladies Tote for 15.6-Inch LaptopsI got this as a replacement for an older briefcase which was beginning to show signs of age. I've only carried it for a week so far, but find that I am already very happy with it. The tote is lightweight, but roomy enough to hold several folders of working papers (instead of my laptop at this point), calendar, glasses, bottled water, and other accessories without appearing to be stuffed. I had to take a two inch stack of full-size paper plates to the office one day (in addition to my regular office gear) and the tote easily handled it without appearing bulky. The straps are a perfect length for carrying by hand (I'm 5'8" so straps might be a bit long for a shorter person) or carrying over the shoulder. On the shoulder, the bag stays in place nicely and the straps do not slide off nor need constant monitoring. The adjustable computer wrap inside the tote is not removable. I initially thought this would be awkward, but I got used to it quickly so it hasn't been an issue. I'm very happy with the purchase.

  • Durable Canvas material
  • Zipper closure
  • Front zip compartments

I purchased a Disney item for $43.28 my son for Christmas, and it arrived in mid January, with a horrid smell that quickly filled my home. I re-boxed it immediately and notified this company that I wanted to return it (per their return policy). Weeks later they responded to my many calls to authorize the return but requested that I send it back Fed Ex because they needed a tracking # and this expense would be refunded as well. This brought my purchase to a whopping $60.71. I purchased this for my 4 year old son for a Christmas gift and was only willing to pay for the already over priced item because he'd been asking for it for so long and they were sold out at my local stores. Today (Feb 6th), I emailed to inquire about my refund and received back an email that said I would only be refunded $36.29, of the $60.71, with no explanation as to why. I immediately notified Amazon and was told that OrangeOnions was charging me a restocking fee of $24.42....WHAT? For a bag that arrived with a horrid stench, I should be charged $24.42 for YOUR restocking fee? Listen, I do not have $60.71 to pay for a smelly bag that I no longer have nor want. Especially when it is only $14.00 at Target! I am insulted and feel taken advantage of OrangeOnions.

All in all, Amazon did offer me an Amazon credit, however I would beware when ordering ANYTHING from this person, company,OrangeOnions. They will cheat you. Also, their other reviews stink!

My son received this as a birthday gift 6 months ago, and unfortunately, it was ripped after the first use! (The fabric tore away from the seam, revealing the inner padding. He travels with me all of the time and wanted his own suitcase like I have, but this product cannot hold up to travel, much less the use of a toddler. We are extremely disappointed, since that was a wasted $35 at the Disney store (that my parents spent on the gift). I would have taken it back to ask for a new one, but we have already been in 3 times to replace his broken buzz lightyears (which all broke within the first week). We finally stopped going in for new Buzz Lightyears (even though the final one did in fact break a week later). Unfortunately, it seems that Disney toys are not made like they used to be. They're cheaper now, but lacking in quality. :-(

Star Wars 16 Inch Sith Lords Backpack - Black

Star Wars 16 Inch Sith Lords Backpack - BlackBought this as a birthday gift for my friends son he loved it. He is six. The backpack seems to be pretty durable. He uses it for school and usually has his lunch, a toy or two, maybe a library book, and school papers in it. Since he is only six, he does not have a lot of heavy books he is carrying back and forth daily. The image on the front changes when you move the backpack which he loves!

My son (Kindergarten) is obsessed with Star Wars, so we knew this was the backpack for him! He absolutely loves it and it has stood up to everyday use. It was definitely a great purchase!

Very nice looking backpack. We bought one in ToysRUs in September and the strap ripped. My son liked it so much, I though I'd try another one. Maybe the first one was just part of a bad batch. No such luck, the second one ripped within two weeks. I would advise everyone to avoid this brand.

Timbuk2 Bender Laptop Backpack

Timbuk2 Bender Laptop BackpackI own three Timbuk2 messengers and I am really impressed by the materials used and build-quality overall.

However for the Bender, I was quite disappointed. Firstly, the "light-weight" nylon does not feel as sturdy as my other Timbuk2 bags. The stitches also do not seem to be as good as the ones in the messengers, not sure if its due to the new material or Made-in-P********** or just my imagination...

The bag is very roomy @ 27 litres, but due to the filmsy material it doesn't hold its shape very well. I suppose its the trade-off for using light-weight nylon.

I like the design though, but was just very surprised by the difference in quality between my other messengers and/or even when comparing my Q backpack...

I will still buy Timbuk2 in future, but not without handling it in future...Its a regret I have to rate it a 2-star...Don't get me wrong, Timbuk2 products are generally of 5-star quality.

Owner of 2 laptop messengers, 1 Q backpack, 1 Bi-fold wallet & 1 "light-weight" Bender......

I traveled around SE Asia for 6 weeks using this bag. It has quality craftsmanship and is lightweight. I bought it because it had (i) those straps on the outside that can hold an item outside the bag, and (ii) because it had a little pouch area where you could place a small laptop/ipad without it banging around.

The good:

1It is super lightweight and really can hold a lot. If you are using this as an overnight bag, you will be able to fit much.

2Quality craftsmanship. Whatever this material is, it stands up to everything I threw at it.

The bad:

1If you're using this as a day bag, it's inconvenient. It is missing small interior pockets. It has some, but they are so tight, that you really can't place much inside. The one outside is huge (as long as the bag), and this doesn't allow you to easily get at your sunglasses or ipod or whatever quickly.

2One of the worst parts of the bag is that if you are carrying something using the straps on the outside (in my case I carried a pair of scuba fins), you can't access the outside pocket as the fins (or skateboard or whatever) blocks this pocket.

3There is a small side pocket but it too is super tight and small and doesnt really suffice to hold anything of any size (and this includes a water bottle!). If they could just add a small, but usable, outside pocket, it would make this bag much better.

4The shoulder straps are uncomfortable. Once I had 7-8kg in the bag, they sort of cut into your shoulders. You just have to grin and bear it there is no way to adjust and no padding to assist.

5The straps on the outside are adjustable BUT they do have a limit. And sadly, the limit was reached for my fins. Also, the straps do not stay tight the come loose and require constant re-tightening or whatever you are holding in them falls out.

Its sad really, because this bag had such a great start. But it's like the person who created this bag didn't travel with it. When you add up all the small things, you realize it's not as usable as you'd like.

I'm a full time student. I bought this to replace a Dakine Eve Women's Backpack that I used for a little over 2 years, 6 days a week until the lining starting peeling which almost drove me insane. Immediately I noticed this backpack made a huge difference on my back. It distributes the weight of what I carry (I drink lots of water)in a way that does not hurt my back. It holds everything (school and personal items), easily fitting my 14.1 HP laptop. I can't vouch for the durability since I've only been using it for a few weeks now but it seems well made. I would definitely recommend this product even though I haven't used it for long, I am very happy with this purchase.

My daily bike ride to school is a 20 mile round trip through hot Houston humidity and this backpack has become my favorite companion. It sits perfectly on my back, keeps the sweat on my back to a minimum and easily holds everything I need for my classes and the gym. My favorite part are straps on the back, I use the top one to fasten my helmet securely to the pack and the bottom as a clothes line for my towel and riding gear. This will be my third purchase from Timbuk2 and I've been pleased with them all, the quality is fantastic.

Overall, I'm satisfied with this. I take in on 15-20 mile bike rides each way to work (~40 mile round trip). Still get back sweat but not as bad as my old backpack, but aside from getting away from using a bag, I realize that will still be an issue.

The bag is a little long, though I'm only 5'6.

I like ithaven't tested it in the rain yet, but hopefully it keeps my stuff dry!

Rustic Leather Distressed, Full Grain Leather Messenger Bag Briefcase Large 16"

Rustic Leather Distressed, Full Grain Leather Messenger Bag Briefcase Large 16' - Rich Chocolate Brown Rustic Leather-One SizeI looked at a video for the product that this one was(obviously)modeled after. It appears to be an exact copy of that very,very,very expensive case. The tags and such seem to indicate Texas as the point of manufacture(I would have preferred if it was made in America...lol)I'm not the type to return an item after 99 years anyway, so I went for it. I don't think you'll be disappointed unless you want light weight, in which case I don't think you would be looking at this type of bag anyway. Just think of an image of a cowboy throwing his saddle on the back of his horse. As it is, my 18 year old son thinks this is greater than the nice laptop I got him for college.

Basically, if you like what you see in the pictures, you're going to like what you get!

If I could go back in time I would have bought the VT or Saddleback bag. This one is just not up to the same level as those other brands.

Condor Medium Assault Pack (OliveDrab)

Condor Medium Assault PackPros:This pack is very well made and solid construction. Lots of storage including hydration pack hanger. tons of molle attachments.

Cons: the shoulder straps are not adjustable on the top and are very short, i am 6'0" 225 lbs and the pack does not hang well. would work for a smaller framed person but if you are large framed look for a pack with adjustable shoulder straps.

Overall this is a great deal, would compare to packs like 5.11 and others

I was looking for a solid bug out bag that had plenty of mollie attachments, just the right size, and just the right features...this bag was it. I've set this bag up as my primary home bug out bag and love to take it on hikes with me when I get out on tough day hikes. The construction is tough and it's just the right size.

Buy Condor Medium Assault Pack (OliveDrab) Now

This bag replaced all the other backpacks I have, and blows away the other ones I have had. I had two woodland camo MOLLE Gen 1 bags, but did not prefer them because the plastic brace sheet was easily deformed. Also, there was a single row of MOLLE loops above the external pocket, which was placed inconveniently.

This bag by Condor swooped in from the heavens and saved me from the one-off inadequacy of what I had been using. The bag is covered in MOLLE attachments, has pockets with a rubberized interior, the removable kidney strap has a dozen sets of MOLLE loops, and the generous pocket inside the main pocket will accommodate two 2 liter hydration packs. the lower external pocket has a large velcro panel, and there is a secret map pocket see if you can find it!

The only confession I have to make is that I did not buy this bag from amazon, I found it at a local thrift store for 15$, but its an amazing bag for 65$ nonetheless

Haven't had the chance to field test it but I bought this pack to keep in my truck with some survival/ medical essentials. It feels tough and is plenty big enough for 2 days of gear if you pack essentials (maybe a couple of luxury items). I love the molle attach points all over it, I have a canteen on one side, a survival knife on the other and a 2 Mag M-4 pouch and IFK on the back molle loops. I love the Olive coloring. Judging by the quality of the pack I'd say condor has worked out some of it's prior quality control issues. I gave it 4 stars bc it doesn't have a way to adjust the top of the shoulder straps and I'm a tall broad shouldered guy but it's not that big of a deal bc I won't be actually wearing it much if I have to use it for intended purpose.

Eagle Creek UnderCovertrade; Silk Money Belt - Khaki

Eagle Creek UnderCovertrade; Silk Money Belt - KhakiI wore this money belt to Haiti 4 times in the past year on mission trips. Its cool, comfortable, hides easily, washes well (a must in >100 degree weather), has enough room for "essential travel documents" as well as cash and is easy to access in a restroom or other semiprivate place. Best of all, when you look in a mirror and ask "does this make my butt look fat?" the answer is no. It has held up well through rigorous circumstances and I have purchased extras for family and coworkers on subsequent trips. I would recommend this for casual and serious travelers alike.

I wore this everyday for over a month in Europe. It is very comfortable and breathes well. It was upwards of 90-100 degrees the entire trip and i didn't even realize it was there. It is also very durable. Great value!

Buy Eagle Creek UnderCovertrade; Silk Money Belt - Khaki Now

From the two other reviews, I got the impression that this is a higher quality pouch for the money. My problem with this and all other pouch design is the elastic belt. The elastic does not last long before it loses its elasticity. For the price, I thought the belt would be more sturdy. I just cut the elastic belt off and replace it with a velcro strap. The velcro is more sturdy and is easy to adjust the tension around your waist. For those who do not like the feel of the loop against your skin, I just create a casing (similar to a pillow case with both ends open) with about 1/2 inch of velcro at each end to prevent the casing from coming lose during velcro adjustment. Pouch will now last a long time even with multiple washings and still have a strong belt.

Rick Steves Autobahn Laptop Backpack

Rick Steves Autobahn Laptop Backpack,Spice,One SizeI bought this backpack specifically because I could slip it over the extended handle of my suitcase. I've traveled with it once and like it. I was able to organize my things because there are three different compartments. It seems sturdy and is relatively comfortable to wear. All in all, I'm quite happy with it.

Used the rolling backpack for 2 weeks in Spain. It didn't twist on cobbled streets and curbs. Very stable. Easy to strap on my back when I had to climb stairs. Balanced weight very nicely.

Well organized, fit nicely into airline overhead, and was easy to open all the way for airport security. It was also easy for me to see my stuff. The zippers seemed sturdy and worked easily.

The only thing to watch out for is the straps. If you don't tuck them all the way in, which is hard, you need to be sure and run the chest strap through the handle so they won't drag on the street. It's easy to unsnap the strap when you hit steps.

Way better than any of my previous duffels or rolling luggage.

Also very good price from Amazon.

Spent a while looking at new packs for mainly work but also for travel. Was sold by the celebrity endorsement here and haven't been disappointed, a well built and comfortable pack! Only complaint (for work, can see it as a benefit for travel)is that the main compartment zippers are full and if you aren't paying attention and grab the pack when open the entire front can come down spilling everything. Just be smart and you are good. Would only ever recommend you buy this pack.

I purchased this in August for a quick 6 day trip to Europe to watch a Formula 1 race in Belgium. I found the pack to qualify as "carry on" very well as the ticket agent made me jam into their metal dimension square and it fit very snugly. The pack material held up well and the rollers worked well even on gravel at the track. My complaint is the quality of the main zipper which broke on the third day of use, rendering my ability to keep anything in very limited. Zippers are not easily repaired or replaced, so its the trash bin for this thing.

Tactical Molle 3 Day XR Explore Pack Backpack

Tactical MOLLE XR Explore Pack BackpackI ordered this pack as a pre-order to get ready for the summer hiking season. I really like the way this pack is set up! There are more than enough zipper pockets on the exterior of the backpack to hold everything that I need to take with me, and the material is really strong and seems to be of a good quality. Things I liked about the pack include:

-Great back padding

-Removable front pocket straps and waist straps if needed

-VERY cool zipper just behind the back of the pack

-large enough for my longer hiking trips, but small enough to be something like a school backpack

Not anything I can really think of as a "con" for the pack. Thanks!

The bag itself it pretty large. Can't really tell from the images on here but it is big. The material is pretty good too. Some places are a little thin, like around the seams on the inside, but unless you hold it up to light and look from the inside you'd never know. I love the velcro stripping, great for patches. There are more straps on it than I know what to do with, so you could either try to tie them up or cut half of them off to be honest. All around good bag though, it'll pack your stuff if you need it to.

I bought this product to use for hiking, hunting and the impending zombie apocalypse (ok, maybe the last one was a little exaggeration). Upon arrival the pack looks nice made of good material, PALs compatible tons of storage / pockets. The pack fits well but can be a little challenging to adjust (not easy to adjust when wearing it). Although I haven't had a chance to really use the pack, I'm somewhat concerned with the strap buckles they're made of what appears to be a very weak plastic leaving me with the impression they won't last too long or handle harsh treatment. Time will tell and I plan to follow up this review with an update in 6 mo. to a year (or if something breaks / falls apart before then).

I still think for the price the pack is a pretty good value considering 5.11 and others sell packs of similar sizes for up to double the price. However, if this doesn't last or handle the expectations of a tactical pack I will probably buy a 5.11 type brand of backpack.

I bought this mainly for the perceived value so far I'm pleased with the purchase and would do it again.
