Beraliy Travel Backpack for Men Women, Large Carry On Backpack, Personal Item Bag Airline Approved, 17 inch Laptop Backpack, Business Work Gym Weekender Bag, Black

Got this right before leaving overseas. I had it loaded enough it wasn't going to fit under the seat, but probably could have if I'd not absolutely filled it. There are many manufacturers of these type of travel backpacks. I was looking for a very rectangular one without pockets that would be useless to me. I already owned several regular backpacks and wanted one that would fully open and allow easy access for clothes, shoes, toiletries, and electronics while on the go. The shoulder straps were ample and could be hidden away if you were using it as a suitcase. The strap across the back worked well to secure the backpack to my suitcase handle. One slender full length compartment was generous to accommodate a fleece jacket folded up. (Also could serve as a wet container, if needed) Another slot stowed a laptop, located against the back, with lots and lots of padding. Another area held folders of information. Also there were small envelope sized compartments. I actually used the plastic rectangular containers that came with the backpack. I should mention that the bag was tightly wrapped up and had a very strong odor. I left it fully open and didn't notice it after a day, which I was relieved to find. There are straps inside to secure the load if it isn't large enough and there are straps on the outside that cinch down the load to make it look smaller. One bottle holder on the side. Nice handles on top and side making it easy to grab. The exterior material was substantial. Laptop at the back allows better balance. There is also a zipper to expand the bag, although I really didn't use it except briefly. An extra inch or so? A sister had a smaller bag and that fit easily under the seat. If I had required it to get under I would have had to squash the bag down some. But for day to day it was great. Zippers worked easily and none of that digging through a backpack that didn't open all the way to the bottom. Nice that several other slots also opened fully. Main considerations are size needs and exactly what you will want: more or fewer pockets on the outside, more or less rectangular. While not so delightful a color, black is impervious to travel schmutz. Did wipe up nicely after I had to keep my feet on it in the car. Wish I had discovered this model sooner. I spend a good deal of time reviewing various others and found this one ideal for me. Price was right too.

I love this bag! I’ve taken it everywhere! Domestic and internationally. I’m a 5’10”, wear L-XL clothing in men’s and I’m able to pack a weeks worth of clothing when folded and organized well. I like the style of the bag. The bag itself is pretty lightweight. Any lighter and I don’t think the quality would hold up, but thankfully this bag doesn’t have that issue and is pretty durable. The straps are comfortable. They’re padded and wide which is nice for when I pack heavy. There is a charging port that’s convenient for when my bag is under a seat or I’m mobile. I really like the amount of pockets to store accessories and tech. And the best part is that there is a waterproof wet pocket to store wet clothing or swimsuits! Comes in very handy when traveling to destinations with water.

I bought five different travel backpacks in this price range and narrowed it to the Homiee travel backpack and this Beraliy. Both are really nice for the price. The Homie was my top choice except it is just a bit smaller in width and length, but thicker when expanded. I really loved the waterproof coating on the Homiee and the mesh divider that means no need for cubes. If my trip was a few less days (weekender), I would have chosen that bag for sure. However, I needed maximum personal item size to get all my week's clothing in. And, the Beraliy bag was a close second choice anyway. So, I went with that one. I managed to get it all in along with an extra pair of crushable type (HeyDude) shoes. It is a tight fit. But, I am still at under the 17lb weight and size limits for ITA Airways carry on, and under for most domestic Personal Item limits. I also have a small handbag that I carry my camera and other electronics in to keep this bag under the needed weight limit But, I could probably fit the electronics in this bag as well if I left out a few accessories.This Beraliy backpack is a big change from my normal wheeled carry on bag. Of the 4 bags I tried along with the Homiee, the Beraliy was the nicest overall with most of the features that I wanted. The material is lightweight and well padded. And, the straps and comfortable. A plus over the Homiee bag is that the straps have a pocket to conceal them when not needed. The main compartment is very roomy for the small dimension. And, a nice feature is that the expandable section of the backpack is zipped like a compression cube, and can be used in much the same way if you don't overstuff the bag. There is a padded compartment for a laptop, and another section for electronics or notepads...etc. There is also a full length, wet compartment to isolate any damp items. But, my main reason for going with this pack is the overall capacity vs. what qualifies as a personal item. If you pack it full and stuff it under the seat in front of you, there won't be any room for your feet. But, it should manage to fit. I have a wheeled bag that also qualifies in this size, but loses a lot of packing room for the trolley mechanism. Looks to be a good bag. We'll see how it holds up.

I love this bag! It is the perfect bag as a personal item for air travel to avoid extra fees of a carry on. It holds enough items for a few days and straps are comfortable when caring like a backpack. Fits easily at your feet and has so many pockets on the outside to grab items you need to be accessible.

My husband love this backpack. I purchased hoping it would work perfect for our European trip but found it to be too soft for me. I wanted one with a little more shape. My husband loves it though. It holds a lot and the side straps can help tighten down the bag and the size. It's nice that the top flips all the way open and makes it easy to pack.I find the pockets to be too big and my smaller items get lost. It is very comfortable and we do have some issues getting it under the seat if it is a window seat. Quality is great!!
