That depends on what you are looking for. I bought this to carry a light small Asus laptop, and just a book. For me, it's small and practical, I can carry everything I want without a hassle. I even carry a light sweater in it!If you want something small and practical, this is for you. If you want to carry a lot of stuff, then this might be just too small.

Judging from other backpacks I have seen, I think this one is definitely worth the $40. It is well padded, and I can fit a small laptop and an iPad in there, we'll protected, and still have room for all the peripherals needed, AND there is still manageable room for a few extras, such as a pad of paper, pens, and even my phone. I am very happy with it. I wish there were a choice of color, but the grey is "all purpose" so it's all good. When I started looking at various bags for my travel computers, I was astounded to find that a good number of them listed at over a hundred dollars, which made this one the bargain. Hope this helps.

No worries. You will be very happy with this bag. The only bag I have that I like more is a pelican backpack because it incorporates a hard shell for laptops. Worth taking a look at.

It is very well made. I have not had it long but i can tell you the zippers are very heavy duty. The fabric is very nice canvas. It is better than any swiss bag I have ever own. For 40 bucks you will not be disappointed!

You could definitely pull that off. The quality is second to none. So, even packed tight, the bag will eventually mold to accommodate without showing any signs of failure.

Yes, you get a total of 40 oz. for that price. It's a really good deal because it's much more expensive when you buy individual bags in a health food store.

It is, but honestly, it is pretty large. If you are hoping for a smaller weekend bag, I would go with the small.

I have had mine for about five months. Going back and forth to craft shows. Zipper still works fine and bag shows no sign of ripping. I would say that the bag quality is above par but it's not the greatest quality.

Yes - I think I got mine for $45. It has held up well over a year and I"m happy with it.

I agree with Ivan... not super thick but very sufficient. I have found this bag, along with the straps to very comfortable. I have it pretty well loaded when I use it and will wear it for hours and I love it.

Nope not even slightly. Mine ripped after two days of use and that was just a laptop and a binder in it. Look at OGIO backpacks. They are a bit more expensive but their quality is unbeatable.

Yes, it is very comfortable. You can also carry odds and ends in addition to your camera. The more you use it the more uses you will realize. It is a great bag. It is a well made unit with very strong material. I am very happy with this bag.

Not sure. But the canvas bag definitely is nice to have! You'll have to compare whats included in the price.

The bag is synthetic. I don't think that there is a down bag close to that price anywhere.

Hi Brian, from my experience I can say that the bag was quite sturdy overall. I gifted it to my dad for his laptop and I haven't heard any complaints from him :) for the price it's a great value. I spent more on another bag for myself and that one broke, so name brand and price aren't always an indicator of quality. I hope this is helpful :) happy shopping.

Unsure which bag you are comparing to so difficult to compare for you. I can say, I have had this bag for about 8 months and am pleased with quality and functionality. I would make sure to purchase it filled!!! They pack bag correctly and evenly. I would even pay the extra to have them pack it!!

I purchased this bag for a little less than $100, for my son, in black. He loves it, especially the various pockets and compartments because he can carry his music books, extra reeds, etc. Good luck. And I do like the red too.
