I want to use the Samsonite bag to carry my Epson projector....which needs about 3.5 inches of thickness to store into the area where a laptop would usually go. Is there enough depth to accommodate? Are the separators attached by Velcro at sides so you...

The Samsonite bag does not have a removable insert inside. The divider has a Velcro strip in the middle so that you can attach it to one side for more room.There are pockets on the other side that will flatten if not in use. The bottom of the bag is not very wide(2"?) but when the laptop area is unzipped, it opens quite a bit so the projector should probably fit ok. It's a very well-made bag.

I purchased the large version and have had no problems taking anything with me. I store power cords and the like within the seperate pouch the laptop comes in, and have had no problems doing so (I have a smaller) laptop though. This bag comes with so many pockets and cool little spaces, (and I actually added a pouch to the side) you should have no problem storing what you need. Good Luck!

17" bags are decently hard to come by, I don't even want to think about 18.4". :P I have an 17" HP DV7t its dimensions are 15.59 (W) x 11.22" (D) x 1.31 (min H)/1.66(max H) Here's what I measured with my laptop in the Targus Los Angeles: Width can't be much more without flexing the bag, depth can be about an inch and a half bigger, and height could be 3+ inches thicker with ease. I can fit another laptop in the padded laptop compartment in addition to mine with no problems. My assumption is you might be able to get a 18 incher in there, but check the dimensions with what I just posted. In case you're interested, the outside dimensions of the bag are 18.5"w X 15"h X 5.5"d (nothing in it) to 8"w (stuffed with stuff). It is a VERY big bag.

It would give you space for maybe a pair of jeans and a shirt. Maybe a tad more but not much.There are 2 full sized compartments, 1 is about 2 inches deep for a laptop. The other is only about 4 inches deep. Also it is not quite as tall as the laptop section.

I don't think there's enough clearance for the thickness of a paper bag. Plastic produce bags are too small. Though more expensive, the J Bag fits perfectly, and is invisible.

New answer from Ben: No it won't hold that laptop due to the largest dimension (14) being too long for the packet.

theres a padded divider which is great for a laptop but may not be best for LOTS of books, but if you like a divider for say books and something else it could still work. does not balance well / sit on its own. that said, i love the oil rubbed fabric finish and the deep purple color & style... functionality as a laptop bag is great.

absolutely! my laptop is a little over 17 inches and bigger than most. I also carry a 10 inch notebook next to it in the adjoining pocket, along with various other stuff. This bad is heavy duty, and I have never had a better bag to carry and meet all my needs, seriously! this backpack is the best by far. If your looking for quality and longevity, this is it!

I had to return mine because it wasn't big enough to house my 17" Toshiba laptop. That said, it will house those 2 laptops you mentioned. As far as extras, it will carry the essentials with little problem. If you are trying to carry extra things then a bigger bag may be necessary. Again, it all depends on how much you are planning to haul around. I use a 17" laptop bag made by Microsoft. While more expensive, it was the only one large enough to house my laptop and has an insane amount of storage space.Hope this helps

The bag is 17" long and about 8" deep. I am assuming a 13.3 laptop could be placed inside the bag, but I would not put my computer in it. The canvas has no padding so there could be knocking against the wheelchair when in motion. Additionally, I would not trust the plastic clips to hold. I have noticed that the straps do slip slightly during the course of the day and so far we have only used it to carry a cell phone (inside a small case), a wallet, and a few other lightweight essentials.The bottomline: Even if the laptop will fit, I would never trust this lightweight, non-padded bag to carry my laptop.

Possibly if that is the only thing you put in the bag. Personally, I would get a bag an inch longer for that. I use the bag to transport file folders and notebooks.

I am not familiar with that projector. I am carrying an Epson VS220 and it is overly big for that model, but secures it well. Maybe if you compare the size of the two inits, I can give you a better answer.

You will need to remove the velcro divider to fit your 15" laptop. It can be laid flat on the bottom. The other strap is to hold down the laptop (as stated by MzTweety). This bag holds my 15" laptop, some paperwork in the back zippered compartment, my cords, mouse etc. in the big front pocket plus the inside compartment(s) hold my flashdrive(s). I am very happy w/this purchase & would buy again & recommend to anybody. Since it has the divider I know it will handle any future devices such as notebooks or tablets when the laptop becomes old. I like the versatility & it seems made well enough to hold up for a few years. You will need to remove the velcro divider to fit your 15" laptop. It can be laid flat on the bottom.

I don't carry my laptop in my bag, but just to see, I put my Sony Vaio (measures from corner to corner at 15 1/2") in the main compartment and it zipped up perfectly fine. I wouldn't say it's protected by any means, as this bag was not designed for that, but it definitely fits perfectly fine. Hope this helps

I measured and it is about 1 inch thick, but it is cushiony (I know that's not a word), but it seems it might be able to make more room due to the room provided when the cushions are pressed down from the weight of the lap top. I hope this answers your question. It really is a nice bag. I get compliments whenever I carry it.

I think so, but if it is too stuffed with other items it might not. I push it underneath the seat with handle facing me and it seems to fit. The laptop is not a problem, the additional items that you put in the bag. The bag has an expanding middle pocket with a flap at the bottom of the pocket that allow for this expansion - it depends how much you stuff in this pocket. If you have overnight clothes, shoes, etc, it might become to bulky for underneath the seat! But it is nice to have the option to put much more in the bag!

Absolutely. I have tried this myself with a 19 inch gaming laptop and either a 2-3 inch binder or textbook. Along with other supplies like; notebook, pens/pencils and the cord for my comp. It did make the width of the bag thicker so I adjusted the front straps and it was excellent. 😊
