This is my second Della Gao Travel Laptop Backpack, replacing an older identical one. And the only reason I am replacing the older one is because it is getting grungy and starting to stink after more than 2 years of daily use waking to work, often with a packed lunches inside. I probably could have washed it after detaching the USB charger, but at such a very reasonable price, I decided to get a new one just like it!
I have used the backpack for traveling with my heavy 17-inch laptop, too. It is very sturdy and does not stretch the stitches apart at the shoulder straps like another brand of laptop backpack I once had. The back of the outermost laptop compartment is well padded, which protects the laptop and also makes the backpack more comfortable to wear. I have not had the opportunity to use the USB charging port, but I’m glad it’s there, just in case.
I really like the mesh outer pockets on both sides of the backpack for my keys and smartphone when I’m walking (I walk in a low crime area). The pockets would be good for a water bottle or small thermos, too. The red and white tabs on the backpack are highly reflective for safety after dark. It’s water resistance keeps things dry when I am walking in the rain.
I’ve had many backpacks over the years, and except for an expensive leather backpack I had back in the 1990s, this Della Gao Travel Laptop Backpack is my favorite!
