Customer Reviews

After two months
I bought this bag and thought that it was a good solution, small and light, yet big enough to slip in both my laptop and a book.
Well, don't try putting that book in there. After just over two months of ownership I was walking along and the shoulder strap pulled out sending my computer plunging down to the concrete. The stitching that secured the shoulder straps had come out.
Do not buy this bag, if it can barely last me for two months, it certainly cannot last the test of time.

Elegantly designed and rugged
I usually don't write reviews but feel compelled to provide one on this bag. I've been using this bag for the last 6 months and have nothing but great things to say. The things I look for in a bag are reliable zippers, durable stitching and quality fabric. As with most things in life, there are trade-offs, however, this bag manages to do well in all these areas while remaining relatively inexpensive. Without being too austere, it's still got some trendiness in it's design that suggests that Targus was hoping to appeal to the hip college kid and the mobile businessman who isn't bashful about using a backback instead of a briefcase.

The fabric is remarkable and *almost* behaves like quality ballistic nylon. I've managed to spill coffee on it, scrubbed it, generally NOT babied it, and there hasn't been any noticeable fuzziness or pilling.

The padding of laptop compartment is adequate for me and suspect it would be for the potential buyer who carries their laptop a little more carefully than an airport baggage handler. I've no issues with carrying my 12", 14.1", 15.4", or 16" laptops. The 16" is wider resulting in a longer profile in the bag making it a bit tight, but still workable.

The bag also has lots of compartments that allow for organization for those who like to obsess and also enough room (ignoring the dividers, pockets) to satisfy the person who like to just "dump it in the bag" types.

Kudos Tarus! You nailed it on this one.

Great bag for the price.
I bought this bag for my new 17" Laptop and I like it. It's roomy and it was very inexpensive compared to other brands. I bought it because it I needed a bag with handles, the shoulder strap was an extra benefit.Targus CVR217 Neoprene Slip Case for 17"" Notebooks (Black/Blue)"
