When it comes to carry-on backpacks, the Greenroom136 Rainmaker and Fjallraven Bergtagen 30 both pack a punch. Astoundingly heavy-duty, safe and customizable, the Greenroom136 Rainmaker is a solid choice. The Rainmaker is sure to fit your laptop, weighing in at 1.7 pounds and built from 1000D Cordura, which only adds to the appeal of the backpack. The Rainmaker also beats out the competition in the compatibility sector, fitting the cabin luggage standard for all airlines.

For those in search of a slightly softer material, the Fjallraven Bergtagen 30, made out of Bergshell®: 400D 100% polyamide, might be a better fit. This backpack weighs less than the Rainmaker at 1.04 pounds and has a greater capacity at 30 liters. Although the Bergtagen 30 isn't compatible with all airlines, it does feature the same laptop accommodation as the Rainmaker.

Testimonials speak strongly about both backpacks. Users laude the Rainmaker as the “complete package at an amazing price,” offering “customizability options” and a “sturdy and water-resistant exterior.” They also note that it's a great value for money given its wide range of features, a sentiment echoed by numerous other reviews. The Bergtagen 30 isn’t short of compliments either. Its lightweight build, weatherproof design, and comfortability scale even when fully loaded, are often praised.

Both carry-on backpacks offer versatility. For the one that values function and durability, the Greenroom136 Rainmaker is highly recommended. However, if you are after a lightweight, highly crafted and comfortable backpack, the Fjallraven Bergtagen 30 is a solid choice. No matter which you choose, both are well-made and offer superb performance, perfect for your travel needs.
