[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Are you looking for that perfect backpack for work or school if you the Targus compact rolling backpack is the answer. This backpack is compact yet offers all the space need it to carry every day work essentials. There’s a padded place for your laptop, front zipper pouch, where you can have pencils, pens, paper, clips, markers, notepads , etc. The main compartment can be used to keep your notebooks, files, or whatever you need. The best part about this backpack is that it has a pull up handle to guide the backpack on wheels. This is a great backpack made of good quality.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this rolling backpack, even tho IMO it could do with some improvement. I used it for short weekend business trips. While I prefer rolling it, I sometimes need to wear it as a backpack if I'm rushing from one gate to another. I feel that the shoulder pads could use a bit more padding. Thank you for including a soft covering for the wheels. We all know when wheeling it around, you never know what those wheels will roll over. So having an extra soft panel to cover the wheels is an excellent idea. This will keep the dirty wheels from I like that it has a mesh pocket for my water bottle. The wheel construction is similar to rollerblade wheels, meaning it should last a long time. This backpack, even with wheels, is very light.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This backpack is perfect for on the go! I really enjoy that it fits both my laptop and my tablet at the same time. The inside is high quality so I feel my electronics are safe and padded. I really enjoy the wheels as well, especially when I have the bag packed full and I don't want to carry it. It's easy to switch from straps to wheels too!

Well made and roomy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This rolling backpack is very well made. It holds a lot and has many compartments. It has many thoughtful features such as interlocking straps to hold clothing and an outside pocket for a water bottle. The smaller outside compartment has room for a tablet, pens and other items There is a small padded zippered compartment near the top that my phone fits in. The handle and straps are padded. There is even a piece of material that is used to cover the straps when used with wheels or to cover the wheels when used as a backpack. This fabric uses Velcro type fasteners- the soft side of the fastener would be against your back. However I feel that the wheel cover fabric is a bit too skimpy - it just barely covers the wheels. The bottom of the pack by the wheels feels hard. Luckily the wheels miss hitting my back while worn as a backpack.
The overall size (13.38” x 7.48” x 19.29”) makes it a bit too large to use as a personal item on some airlines. Although it would work as a carry-on I would prefer to have it handy since it can hold my tablet and PC.
It seems sturdy when placed on the floor and does not seem like it would tip. Note that the PC goes in the flap portion of the main compartment.

Smart Design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I had this rolling backpack / case years ago. It is such a clever design and makes it so much easier to carry all the things you need - including your water bottle. A lot zippered pockets that have features that make it easy to keep everything you need organized. So no searching for items as everything is easy to access. Sewn in pockets to hold pencils pens along with other essentials. Pocket for your water bottle on the side. Padded pockets for your laptop and tablets. Straps keep items secured. The back straps are also nicely padded to make it more comfortable to carry. The extendable handle is tall enough so it is easy to roll without having to bend over. The wheels move and maneuver smoothly. Makes everything neat, accessible and secure. I will be buying a few of these for family members as gifts.
I would recommend this to a friend!
