They have changed the straps on the back so that the zipper cover must stay open when used as a backpack?? Made no sense to me. I returned it... and haven't heard back about my return that has been delivered to them successfully over a week ago. Wish me luck.

Use for air travel and the handle strictures broke

I own this in the beginning of sept and use it for air travel once, i put it inside the cabin storage, but when i gott off, the steel handle sfoundation has bent. This is very disappointing since i have this bag in just under a month. I have high expectations and the quality would be great since i have previous purchases of high sierra. Now even when i tried to file claim for warranty, i couldn’t find my exact type of backpack.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Verified Purchase:Yes
High Sierra is now my go to bag for work. As a locomotive engineer and union rep my bag stays packed and ready to go. It gets the maximum amount of wear and tear. In fact it gets beat to death and time and time again it's proven reliable, dependable and well worth the money.

Quality not great

Used as a student bag to carry books and supplies. Handle tore on first use lifting bag into vehicle. 4 books and a Chromebook. In the process of returning for a replacement. Great customer service!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this after a difficult trip carrying a backpack, when I realized that I was now old enough (66!) for a wheeled backpack. On the first trip through four airports that I used it, I was impressed with the smooth glide of the wheels. I try to walk (rather than sit) when I am in airports, and it was great to walk around with the wheeled backpack. Additionally, I had to walk and run to make a connection when a plane was late, and it was extremely easy do do so with the wheeled backpack. II am very satisfied with this for travelling. #sweepstakes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has served as an awesome backpack for my middle schooler who had to carry a ton of stuff to and from school and in the bus. It has been a durable and reliable life saver!
