Targus16 inch Rolling travel laptop case, Black - Travel briefcase and small rolling bag - Spacious foam padded laptop case 16" (TBR003US)

Very sturdy and useful easy to carry travel bag that lends itself to adequate storage. The colour was great and the lock features excellent. Good handle length.

I bought this bag for some trips I had recently hoping it would be a good carry on option that would fit under seats since I hate fighting messing with overhead storage. I wanted an option to both roll my bag while walking through the airport to ease my back pain or carry it like a backpack for ease of navigating steps and other situations.I usually carry a backpack, but I had some extremely long flights and was anticipating long layovers and delays and didn't want an aching back carrying this around. I was most worried about how this would fit under the airplane seats, but was pleasantly surprised. I've been on two trips with this bag now (which involved 6 different planes of varying sizes with United & Southwest) and it fit under the seat for all of them. The tightest spot was on a huge United flight that had 4 seats in the center and only 3 under seat slots. I just barely fit the bag, but couldn't stretch out my feet beside it. I took pictures of the bag under the seat on about 4 of the flights.In terms of bathrooms, I'm a germaphobe, so I didn't want to roll the bag into the bathroom floor. When I did have to take it in with me, I struggled to get it to fit on the stall hooks because it was so full. Other times I left it with my co-traveler.I found it easy to switch from roller to backpack mode- just grab the bottom of each strap and stick them in pocket just for that purpose. The other pics are the bag after my first trip since some people had issues with the wheels. Mine are still in good condition.Was pretty happy with the storage in the bag. I was able to fit a blow drying brush, straightener, some clothes in a vacuum bag, jacket, makeup bag, phone, headphones, external battery, snacks, a go pro, medications, and various other little items. It was packed pretty full, but it all fit. The main compartment zips all the way to the bottom on both sides. I had some concerns that would be an issue if it broke, but so far so good. The upside is that you can completely open it when packing . I like that there are a few front pockets as well and a couple inside to separate some things for easy access.

My daughter and I are going to Europe on a three week trip across different countries and do not want to lug around a big suitcase. We need one small personal item and a carry-on. We decided we wanted to do rolling backpacks so we can throw on our backs over cobble roads, as well as roll when needed in airports. I got these five as they were both Low-cost (under $60) and had high ratings. Now I have to decide between five of them which two we are keeping. In order from left to right in the photos they are the Targus, Gotech, Bagsmart, Yorepek and Matein.As you can see here Targus is one of the smallest ones of the five and unfortunately also has wheels that don’t roll very smoothly so that one was out for our use.Matien was also one of the smallest ones and i like so much about it. But from the remaining four, it had the least smoothest roll, did not have an attached rain cover for the backpack and if you planned to take a laptop, it would have to be less than 15”, super small laptop backpack. So this one is out too.Down to last three:Gotech has the smoothest roll but it is also pretty small and slim and doesnt look like it could carry a lot. It is however the only one in which you cannot feel the wheels no matter how full it is. Its also the sleekest/prettiest. And less visible logo. I hate seeing logos. I want to keep this one but ultimately the material feels like pleather and likely will start showing signs of wear and tear quickly. That one is out.So by default, sticking with the Yorepek which appears extremely durable and more spacious, but with that, its also the heaviest. The others feel about the same weight. Yorepek is cool bc bottom-side has a small handle if there is a need to grab from bottom (think plane loading.) Tons of pockets. Unfortunately doesn’t open all the way.Also sticking with Bagsmart. Lots of pockets, and down the middle on all the other issues mentioned above.I just noticed, on of The final choices also happen to be the cheapest of the five as of this review, so thats a plus: yorepek.
