Is this sturdy enough to hold a 13" laptop (a Macbook Air in particular)?

My Asus TF300 is about 1.2 pounds. The Air is 3 pounds. The real function of this stand is to hold up the device. It might work, but I can't say it will.

I have never used this stand for anything that large. this is a tablet stand, I think it would be in ones best interest to use it for what it was made for. however it is a very sturdy stand that I really like a lot. I'm sure you could find a stand that was made for a laptop. amazon has a wide arrange of choices.

I use this only on a 10.5 inch tablet, I really would not use a laptop on this tablet stand.I hope this helps you.

The stand is awesome. Very sturdy and surely could hold a macbook air but the arm that holds the tablet is about 3.5-4 inches across so you may need to widen it with something if it will be moved around a lot. I highly recommend this stand...it is still like new and I use it every day.

the 14" width would not be a problem, the 9.7" depth would be tight at the top where the bag begins to narrow toward the top handle. it is possible that may compromise how much protection the bag provides for the laptop since the bag would be a bit stretched around the corners of the laptop at the top of the bag. I don't know what Chris Eddy is talking about, a 13" air would fit no problem.

No, mine holds a 12 inch laptop with just a little room to spare on the sides.

It holds my MacBook Air just fine, but it's only 11.8"x7.5". You'd be okay on length, but the width might be an issue. You might fit it in at an angle - the compartment has quite a bit of give to it. And there are always the panniers, which is why I bought this. Turns out I don't need them. This is a fantastic piece - highly recommended.

Its pretty sturdy. Not sure how much weight it will hold. We have 2 laptops on it and you can lean on it with no problem.

It definitely can, but I don't think it would be comfortable. This isn't a structured bag which is why it is great for space. It doesn't have the additional stuffing to hold any shape. I believe it would fit a a 13" Macbookpro comfortably (or anything smaller/lighter.... well according to another answer 15" works too). But I would make sure to put all your clothes and what not around the laptop so it would be comfortable when carrying (and protect the laptop should you suddenly drop your bag - not likely).

I believe it would be sturdy enough for a laptop but for anything heavier, I don't believe it would work. Also, there really isn't much more room for anything else than a laptop and mouse.

I have a 13 inch macbook air that I carry in this bag. I slip it into the padded section in the back, without a case and it works well for me...

From the way my 13" Macbook Air fits, I would think that a 15" laptop would fit snugly. Might be a bit of a tight squeeze though

Yes it can withstand your 17'' Macbook Pro, it is very steady, depending on how to use it, if you just need your laptop to just sit on it, then, this is perfect.

I use mine for work every day. Seems sturdy enough that you could bike/walk with it. It's small though so won't hold much. Mine has 13" Macbook Air, ipad mini, chargers for each and some paper. Not much room for more.

Yes. I have a Speck case on the 13" MacBook Air and it fits in the case just fine.

I have a 13-inch Mac and I'm not sure that it would fit. I'm thinking that you could force it, but I don't think that it would bounce back or look as nice. I just look at the sleeve as another protective element but it's not roomy.

It holds my 13.3 laptop with plenty of room. It will definetly hold another. I have a laptop in one side, notepads, books, a 15x18 day planner with legal pad and extras in the other side. Plus the compartment in the front will hold plenty of pens, pads, iPod, iPhone, cords etc with no problem. I love mine.

This is not designed to hold a laptop. Kata does have other backpacks that have a slot for laptops, but not this model.I'm not sure a 13 inch macbook could fit into the back pocket.

I just tried it and it does indeed hold the Macbook Pro 13.3", with some room to spare. In fact, it might move around a bit during transport within the case.

If your MacBook Air is smaller than the 13 inch yes, but be ware that it is meant for the thickness of a MacBook Pro. Meaning it'll wiggle in there. Also the case isn't as padded as it looks. It's just rigged and it's a rather thin case. It does however have water resistant zippers.
