I find this backpack to be very useful and comfortable. On certain occasions I use it to carry my baby's toys, books, and snacks and it is still very spacious. It is lightweight and I'm very glad I bought it because now I can use it as I go back to school.
Pros: Comfortable, Good Padding, Highly Adjustable, Lightweight
I had a similar High Sierra backpack that my dog unfortunately chewed up. I therefore ordered the new one, & found it to be poor quality compared to my older one (not so old...purchased the 1st one in April this yr). There is less padding both in the back & on the bottom. The fabric itself isn't what the older one was. Tried to return it, but by the time I paid for shipping it back, 1/2 of my investment was gone...Not happy
Cons: Poor Quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am disappointed in this product

I bought this backpack and it ripped on me within a week of me using it. As an automotive engineer I carry my work laptop to all my meetings in various buildings all day. With my small frame it is more comfortable for me to keep it in a backpack rather than a one shoulder strap laptop bag. My previous high sierra backpack lasted me almost three years so I decided to go with another one. I am very disappointed in the quality of this one.
My daughter uses her backpack for school. We love all the pockets. It's extremely durable. They last for such a long time. I never have to worry about these backpacks ripping or the zippers breaking. Buying High Sierra backpacks save me money and from having to buy a new one in the middle of the year. We haven't bought any other brand of backpack in 7 years.
