Good morning guys. First post. Was looking for a backpack, came across this one. Been using a different model from the same manufacturer, very happy with build quality . Not sure about this one's though.
Thanks for that. Needed a new one for work.
can put water bottle on the side?
This bag was mentioned here not long ago.

Price is still the same. I bought one last time.
Don't expect thick nylon on this bag; it's rather thin.
It's just OK for the price in my opinion. Good if you want a removable soft sleeve for your laptop, which not many bags offer. But the removable sleeve takes quite a bit of room in the bag (it's rather fat despite being a simple sleeve with no pockets), so it takes a fair bit of room away from other things you may want to carry in the bag. A velcro'd internal strap for the sleeve is the only real advantage to just buying a sleeve for your laptop separately and using your existing backpack. The purpose of the internal strap is to just secure the laptop internally (in the main bag compartment). This wouldn't be needed if there was a separate zippered compartment to slide-in the laptop like many other bags offer, and the internal strap only gets in the way when you want to load the bag with non-laptop stuff. So in both cases it's a less-than-optimal bag, in my opinion. There are better bags if carrying a laptop is your main thing as well as better bags for when you're not.
So anyway…there is no separate slide-in zipped pocket for the laptop sleeve which I would find preferable in a bag like this, so you can have more room for other non-laptop things. Otherwise the amount of pockets it offers is decent.
But you get what you pay for.
Hi Cheepwun,
with your experience for this backpack, do you think that backpack volume is around 25 litre because I am looking for backpack for daytrip or so, not for laptop,
pircewise, it's not bad, I think, many thanks,

Apparently it's 18.6 litres.
They have the volume listed right next to the Weight specification (on the bottom of the page). Hope that helps.
I think you get better deal and better bag quality here
