I bought this backpack for my daughter and she loves it. She rolls it down the steps and it just keeps on rolling. The backpack has alot of room I think she had all her books for school and her gym clothes in the backpack at one time. I would recommend this backpack to anyone who has children who have to carry alot of books.
As a teacher, I grade many papers at home. I have used this backpack every school day for the last three years to haul papers and books back and forth from home to school in addition to lunch, snacks and my water bottles. It rolls smoothly and is very comfortable. I ordered it in black and had it monogrammed; it is very professional looking.
I have received numerous compliments on this pack. This is my second rolling pack. The first was navy and I used it for six years, it was still good but I felt like I needed something new. I look forward to many years of use. As always, an excellent product from LL Bean.
My husband and I have a small to-go restaurant, and I have a side business as well. I had been carrying as many as three bags, one for the laptop and two with files and paperwork. He kept telling me to get something on wheels, and when I saw this backpack, I thought it just might work for all my stuff. I must say, I am extremely happy with this product! I've had it three months now, and it holds everything, and I mean everything and more! It's as if llbean designed it just for my needs. I am sure I over-stuff it, but it holds up exceptionally well, carting everything back and forth six days a week. I plan to take it with us on vacation next month, as it will be a great carry-on bag. I definitely recommend this product for anyone needing to carry a lot of 'stuff'. It is very durable as one expects from llbean. Great product!
I bought this for my son when he started 3rd grade. He is extremely rough to any bag he uses and normally was going through 2-3 a year. This one lasted 2 1/2 years of him dragging it off curbs and banging it everywhere. He and I love it so much I bought him a second one and I expect it will last even longer. (He grew up a little and isn't quite as rough)
