How stable is this bag when not on the trolley? If your laptop is inside will it fall over? Trying to decide between this and La Grange. Thanks!

The bag is very stable. It can stand by itself without the Trolley. There is also a laptop bag within the actual bag to keep it nice and snug. Never had my laptop fall over. Overall very nice and sturdy bag. Hope that helps.

It's stiff enough to stand but the bottom of the bag is flat and may tip over. Still looks new pretty heavy duty.

Rich, the bag has an outside compartment in the back padding that would hold a laptop. I wouldn't call it a dedicated compartment, it does not zip closed and leaves the laptop exposed to the elements.

Perhaps with a standard laptop, mine is a 17" and requires the use of the extender pads to support it. Usually the extender pads are for other purposes. The height is adjustable, and as you make it lower it becomes even more sturdy. I have it on the maximum height setting and it doesn't wobble. I use the space underneath for and external hard drive, remote controls, etc. I hope this helps.

At 6'+ I've had no issues with the bag other than the fact, as shipped it did not easily accomodate my 17 inch Dell laptop. Retractable handle and in-line skate wheels are exceptional for pulling or pushing this bag around any of he major airports I've been through with it.

Yes! Very well made, out of neoprene like material. The bottom is also well padded, so whe you place the bag on the floor, your laptop wont hit the hard surface dead on. My 15.5 inch wide screen laptop remains well tucked in and protected from the accessories.

I purchased this bag and I am very happy with it. Handles are very comfortable. To answer your question. I carry laptop (HP255), I pad, makeup small pouch, scarf, and sometimes shoes (as i bike in the city). I have even put a helmet without a problem. I am petite, this bag doesn't appear big but when you need to make things fit its wonderful. Hope this helps. :)

No, sorry. I have only used it to transport my laptop to and from workshops. It seems sturdy enough and is still in great shape after a few months.

i don't think i can answer this without further testing. i tried a 18 inch ruler and i can get the bag to latch but there is a gap between the top latch and the bottom bag portion. as best i could say is that yes you could lug your laptop in this bag, but it may be somewhat exposed in one section. still, i wouldnt trust any pannier to stay entirely water tight no matter what the companies claim . i mean,. i can damn near fit a old pizza box sideways in mine, but im not sure you want your laptop sticking out. thats a pretty big laptop! hope that helps somewhat i wish i could tell you more, i know they]r not a cheap gamble! i don't think i can answer this without further testing. i tried a 18 inch ruler and i can get the bag to latch but there is a gap between the top latch and the bottom bag portion. as best i could say is that yes you could lug your laptop in this bag, but it may be somewhat exposed in one section. still, i wouldnt trust any pannier to stay entirely water tight no matter what the companies claim . i mean,. i can damn near fit a old pizza box sideways in mine, but im not sure you want your laptop sticking out. thats a pretty big laptop! hope that helps somewhat i wish i could tell you more, i... » Read More i don't think i can answer this without further testing. i tried a 18 inch ruler and i can get the bag to latch but there is a gap between the top latch and the bottom bag portion. as best i could say is that yes you could lug your laptop in this bag, but it may be somewhat exposed in one section. still, i wouldnt trust any pannier to stay entirely water tight no matter what the companies claim . i mean,. i can damn near fit a old pizza box sideways in mine, but im not sure you want your laptop sticking out. thats a pretty big laptop! hope that helps somewhat i wish i could tell you more, i know they]r not a cheap gamble! « Show Less

It is sturdy and reasonably steady. Don't know about the 'no-skid feet', but I was able to load it without holding it. This is not like those designed to be used with laptops as it is larger and heavier - the way all External DVDs used to be before portability became the most sought after attribute.

The Samsonite rolling laptop bag I ordered did not have tipping problems. Although I was not the primary user, I was in and out of the bag adding items all the time. Also the wheels were larger than most bags and quite sturdy.

I tested it by using my laptop & no problem, very sturdy. I mounted mine inside a cabinet (with screws) to hold my kitchen chopping boards.Depending where you mount it, you may have to store the laptop in vertically or horizontally. Also consider, the maximum thickness is 3". Hope that helps. Great idea!

I put it under the seat so my legs don't hit it. I have the large and it's fairly narrow, but has plenty of room. Some bags secure tighter, but I think this one is secure enough. It doesn't move around.

Yes, it is quite portable, but if you have heavy laptop, it wobbles. It is little difficult to fit in small place because it's legs are too long.

The first time I used this bag it dropped after a slytly rugged path. I put on an extra attachment (a rubber band) and it is super secure now. It wouldn't drop even after a fall last week (I'm fine by the way!). So I'd recommend an extra attachment.

Thinkgeek's Bag of Holding has done the trick nicely for me. It fits snugly into the compartment meant for laptops (if you put it in fan up) or it fits easily with room to spare into the main large compartment. The bag itself is also pretty great and mine has lasted me the last 4 years.

In my opinion, I feel like this bag would protect my laptop in a fall much more likely than my regular work bag that I carry everyday. I can't tell you that it will protect your laptop 100% since I am very careful with my Mac and pray that I don't have to find out. I know accidents happen so I am hoping that my investment with this bag will protect my MacBook Pro.

My back and shoulders were the reason I went looking for a rolling bag. My laptop stays secure in the laptop compartment. The only complaint is that when it's in the bag, there's not room for much else. Otherwise I love the bag (and my shoulders and back do too).
