EVERKI Business 120 Laptop Backpack with Rain Cover, Large 18 Inch Professional Computer Travel Bag, Oversized Rugged Backpack for Men, Engineers, Business, Extra Security - Black

As many reviewers have commented, there are very few backpacks with laptop compartments that can take large laptops above 17.3 inches, much less an Asus laptop (g750) with a max height of just under 6cm.The laptop will fit in the laptop compartment snuggly. It is best to lead with the fatter end though. As the laptop has rubber feet, I am concerned that over time, it may damage the lining but we will see.Pros:1. It is a really good bag for a student or office worker as there is a good laptop compartment and lots of other pockets for pens, files, music players, chargers, external hard disks etc.2. It is comfy. The back is nicely padded and the shoulder straps are very comfortable, along with the chest strap.3. The construction of the bag seems very solid and dependable. It can get very heavy quickly so I would recommend not carrying it on just one shoulder strap.4. Good zips, solid and easy to hold and open5. The side clips help the pull the back of the backpack towards your own back to improve weight distribution. Most useful.6. The price. It depends on your viewpoint really as £130 seems a lot for a backpack. However, this is a backpack to carry around electronics worth 10-20 times its value and I think this is the point; a quality backpack to protect your expensive gear. Plus as other reviewers have said, there is a lifetime warranty which is a huge perk.Cons1. Would like the laptop compartment to be a touch bigger and perhaps even elasticated to help with the really large laptops but this is a minor comment.2. This is not so much a 'con' but an observation. Although it is a big bag, it is well sub-divided so is not like a hiking bag or anything like that. It is principally intended for the transportation of valuable electronic equipment.

I've had this bag over 2 years now. It holds my Alienware 17.3" laptop and heavy charger, easily. I do use a Belkin sleeve before putting my laptop in, as the bottom of the where the laptop fits in to is padded more than other bags but not enough in my opinion. If you put the bag down hard on a concrete floor from your shoulder, you could damage your laptop, or possibly a HDD. Like I said, it's better than all other bags I'v seen.I've used this thing all over the place and not a single rip or tear, just a little fraying here and there over the last 2 years. There's many compartments to fit everything in and it is a BIG bag. I have well over 10KG in this page bag and the straps have no sign of damage. The straps are extremely padded and comfortable, even with the heavy weight.If you really fill the bag up, there's some straps that you can clip around the front that hold it all in place. The bag expands very well too. I've got so much crap in bag but still have room for more.I also saw that someone had made claim on the lifetime warranty and Everki didn't flinch to replace the bag. That was my deciding factor to purchase this bag.You get a waterproof pouch that just fits over the bag, it's elasticated too. You don't need it for light rain but if it's pouring down like here in the UK, it's best to throw it on, it takes 2 seconds.The only thing I would have liked to see is being able to attach a lock the the zips, just to protect your things if you are travelling. Since the bag is so padded, you probably wouldn't feel someone opening it behind you.The bag is expensive compared to many others but this is one purchase I do not regret. Best bag I've had by far. If you've got expensive equipment, don't hesitate to get this bag, as this will protect it all. The laptop compartment is also a soft fabric, so it won't get scratched, as is another compartment in the middle pocket that can be used for large tablets.This was the first expensive laptop I bought, in-fact it's one of the first things I bought off Amazon. If you got any questions or want pictures, let me know.If Everki are reading this, just add a little more padding on the inside, at the bottom of the bag. People buying this bag are likely gamers and hold heavy equipment.I won't be replacing this bag until it breaks. These bags are great, seriously.EDIT 5 YEARS LATER: The bag is still going well. Few scuffs but no rips. The only thing that broke was the small strap that goes around your chest. The strap has a C clamp that pulled off the bag and it's pretty much impossible to put back on.I contacted Everki and they asked for proof of purchase, the serial and offered to send a new strap for free with a shipping fee. However, they stated to fix it, I need cut the bag up to to get the C clamp attached, which I won't do. So no replacement bag, which is understandable. The bag will last you a long time

A great bag!My Alienware m18x fits perfect in the pocket.At first I was afraid that the edges of the laptop would stick out and pinch the bag, but after contacting Everki they assured me such a thing would not happen.I have taken the liberty of putting up some pictures so that anyone who is interested in the Everki Titan for a Alienware 18.4 or any other large laptop can see that there is plenty of space!I find it better to slip in the Alienware m18x with the rubber fit facing the front of the bag. This way, it slips in and out much easier.Plenty of space for gadgets and more.I do a lot of travelling and carrying the bag around with all my stuff inside does weigh a bit, but the 5 point system makes it comfortable on my back.The top handle also comes in handy when moving the bag around.The material seems to be a very good quality. The zippers are extra heavy duty and so are all the seems.A lot of little nooks and crannies that are great when organizing things inside the bag. (Avoiding having everything roll around inside the bag and making searching for something very complicated.)Shipping was quick and painless:)It is a pricey bag, but well worth it considering the built quality, space, protecting and comfort!
