Rick Steves Autobahn Messenger Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)See my other bag reviews if you have a 2011 15" MacBook Pro.
Out of all of the bags I ordered, this was my favorite messenger bag. This is a great bag with the exception of the laptop compartment. There is NO padding on the bottom. I have a tendency to set my bags down with the bottom of the bag on the ground, counter, floor of the car, etc.
+ Nicely padded shoulder strap
+/- Side loading laptop compartment -- no need to lift the flap, it has a separate zipper on the side.
+ Water bottle holder on side
+ Padded grab handle, decent sized, would work with gloves.
+ Pencil/pen holders under flap.
+ main compartment under flap has a big zipper, unlike a traditional messenger, thus this one should be fairly waterproof.
- no cross strap if you are going to cycle with it and want to wear it like a traditional messenger.
+ 15" MacBook Pro 2011 fits loose in compartment, but is good with a sleeve (see my other reviews).
+ I believe there is enough space for a larger laptop.
+ Room for adapters, books, etc, but doesn't appear overly large.
I sent this bag back. Specifically due to the lack of padding on the bottom of the laptop compartment. If this bag is updated, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Eddie Bauer Compact Auto Open/Close Umbrella Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Lots of wind with sun and rain in Honolulu, Hawaii. I bought this umbrella as had been buying my wife one after the other due to breakage -- principally due to high wind. Paying a bit more for the well deigned umbrella, my wife is extremely happy as a daily user. The design allows wind to blow through the top preventing the umbrella from inverting. I expect that even with day-to-day use, it will last a long time. While slightly more in cost than discount store brands, you will make it up quickly by avoiding repeat purchases. Good job Eddie Bauer!

International Traveller IT-0-1 28.5" Packing Case Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This luggage is sold under two brand names, both the same company: International Traveler or Landor & Hawa. I read about this luggage on the web and purchased online. I travel several times monthly over several states in my work, and own several sizes and types of luggage.
When this luggage was introduced in Europe apparently it quickly became the best seller there. When examining the case its qualities are quite apparent. Look at the weight above; when I received mine the cardboard shipping box weighed as much as the bag! I own a couple of bags also in this extra-large size and the lightest weighs 13 lb, more than twice what this one does. This bag has a Fiberglas framework covered with a durable nylon fabric. There is a separate lightweight gray interior liner. The top handle and the retractable transport handle are lightweight aluminum.
Those who like a bunch of interior compartments will be disappointed here; it is basically a large space with straps for securing articles. I travel with several packing cubes and a folder for suits and clothing, and this works perfectly for me. I put my toiletry case in the bottom of the case (the wheeled end).
Obviously this bag can't be carried on planes-it must be checked. Obviously, also, this bag couldn't be expected to protect fragile items as well as a much heavier, hardsided case. If I am traveling with delicate items, I have other cases better suited. However, for clothing, etc., this wouldn't be a problem at all. I have had no damage from car or plane trips with the black case I have, though I am not abusive myself. The wheels seem durable enough for the use I have put them through.
I see the price has dropped dramatically since I purchased mine some time back. At the above price this is a terrific buy. I wonder whether Americans are harder on their luggage, possibly impacting sales. As other regular travelers know, purchasing one of these extra-large bags can push weights above 50 pounds easily when full. As this bag is best suited to filling with clothing/shoes for an extended trip, the ultra light weight means more can be packed! I certainly haven't exceeded the limit with mine.
If someone needs one of these bags for extended travel to house clothing and/or shoes, this brand would make a fine companion. However, if hiking boots, sports equipment, and other such items need to travel, a heavier, and heavier-duty bag or duffel would be a better choice.

Olympia 18" Rolling Backpack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My son asked for a rolling backpack this year because he had difficulty carrying his backpack loaded with books last year due to their weight and his small frame. I bought two of these backpacks for my twins. They arrived separately and one box came all banged up, eventhough the backpack was a little dirty it was fine. Going on week two of use, I have no problems with them. Actually, I love them. They are roomy enough to carry several books, lunchbag and a sweatshirt with some room remaining. It is well designed that there is no problem with it tipping over. No issues with the pull up handle either. Have not tried using it as a regular backpack because my kids enjoy rolling it around too much. Would have given it 5 stars but since this is only week two of use, I can't talk to its durability. Excellent buy at a good price. If it holds up, I will definately buy again.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This case is simply adorable-well made-very good quality-just the right size.My only complaint was not with the product,it was that the shipping was extrememly high-the cases are not that heavy or large-if I could have found something this nice (they are a little pricey) elsewhere-I would not have paid these shipping charges. I bought two-one for each of my twin grandchildren for a birthday coming up and I am sure they will love them.

Samsonite Business Cases Double Gusset Rolling Laptop Case Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband has a Samsonite case pretty close to this one (ours is the 933705) and he's quite pleased with it. Having wheels was important to him, but also the versatility to stow the handle and just grab-n-go.
He wanted lots of compartments to stash all the computer accessories and these bags certainly have that. Very sturdy and well-made.

Rick Steves Civita Shoulder Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The idea of this bag is great. Lightweight material, so it packs flat and doesn't add to the weight you're carrying. Three pockets for some organization, but it's mostly one big, no-frills compartment to stuff with whatever. It's big enough for a netbook or books, or to stuff a coat into. The side pockets for drink bottles are a nice bonus.
However, after two weeks it's absolutely falling apart. The attachment points where the strap clips onto the bag failed - one came off entirely, and the other is hanging by a thread. Some of the seams are also visibly stretched and on the verge of failing.
Here's what I had in it when it failed (this is the heaviest weight I had in it the whole time): cell phone, compact camera, wallet, keys, two craft books (one hardcover, one softcover, each around 200 pages). I'd estimate the total load to be around 10 pounds.
If you're just looking for something to shove a jacket in, this could be an okay bag. But if you want to carry even a moderate load, keep looking.

Authentic Pigment Pigment-Dyed Canvas Field Bag. 1902 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The shipping on this seemed to take forever though and the price was much higher then bags of this type I've previously perchased. However I was in a tight moment there (I needed to have this bag for a commissioner and she dearly wanted the smoke one) so I buckled down and bought it. The bag itself is great though, sturdy, a perfect size for carrying sketchbooks, a laptop, textbooks, and all sorts of stuff.
