Fairly perfect

Bought this about a month ago and now used for a couple of trips. It's the perfect size to be comfortable to carry, avoid any issues with over zealous boarding staff and get enough stuff in for a good week away. As ever with Peak Design it's the attention to detail on the product that really makes it stellar, you keep finding storage pockets designed in a way that makes them very useful and well positioned. The bag as a whole works really well as both a load carrier but also keeping all the bits you need during a journey readily to hand. Just a great piece of kit, the ability to vary the size of the bag makes it very versatile. I'd recommended the packing cubes to go with the bag, they work and fit well.
The 45L has the feel of a bag that will last for a long time. Added the small camera cube. The bag arrived with a defect on one shoulder strap…was able to fix at shoe repair shop. Otherwise looking forward to years with this bag.
My son recommended this bag to me. He purchased one to backpack South America. It was his only luggage. My husband and I travel a lot and I love just having carryon bags. I really like the bag. It's is comfortable to carry which is the most important factor for me. It is well made and had exceptional design features. Both my husband and I now have one.
I enjoy how everything works so well together with this bag. All the little details that will make a difference to me over time while still be compact and easy to carry for travel.
I bought this a month ago and have been mostly happy with it. I've taken it on one trip so far with more to come this summer. The construction is SUPERB. The side access is great and all the little details are awesome. It's a BIG bag for everyday use. It barely fits under an airline seat and a stickler flight attendant will probably not allow it there. The waist belt padding doesn't go far enough by about 2-3 inches so the web strapping can get you a little if you tighten it too much. I do find myself wishing there was maybe one more internal organization pocket but I'm being picky.
Bought about a month ago, used on two trips. Packing a breeze with branded cubes and comfortable on my old back, even fully loaded with and without hip belt. Space and pockets well laid out. Small quibbles: 1. I am not a fan of the address card holder. It’s hard to access and likely to be overlooked if the bag is found by a Good Samaritan. 2. No key chain leash! MacGuyvered a decent workaround with a Tom Bihn swivel carabiner and a NiteIze leash but this should be a standard for any pack.
Bought the 45L Travel Backpack and overall I'm very happy with it. Couple of things to note, the material of the bag gets dirty quite easily especially if you have a hairy dog. I constantly have some sort of marks and hair on it. I also like the cube design of the bag but I don't love the fact that we have to spend even more to make this bag functional plus the cube system robs precious space within the bag itself. There is some dead space all around the bag with the cube system inside. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied.
