## What reviewers said

-   "Comfortable shoulder / strap/back pads. Lightweight and spacious."
-   "I bought a couple of these bags for work (for my partner and myself) since they have an integral laptop sleeve that was easier to use than my existing similar bag. I found the carry handle on top useful and the structure of the bag helps it holds its shape when it or less in it, which aids in putting things in."
-   "I bought this bag for my son who has just started secondary school and it's perfect, he loves the color, is sturdy and comfortable to carry and is also cavernous so easily fits his books, packed lunch, etc. Delivery also extremely prompt. Wouldn't hesitate to order from Cabin Zero again! "
