I have owned the Atlas for about 4 months now. For my job I travel quite a bit to different schools presenting about Career Technical Education. I pack a 13" laptop, a couple 100 flyers, a couple 100 brochures, iPad, Apple TV, cords, Nalgene water bottle, and other accessories. All of it fits very nicely and there seems to be plenty of space for cords, pens, and extras. The pockets aren't specifically set up for AV cards, etc. but that does not seem to be a problem. The Nalgene bottle does not fit on the side of the pack but I can fit my coffee container on the side and I don't worry about it spilling. The sunglass area is a nice addition. I put breakfast bars and candy there. My 13" laptop fits just fine and is seems secure. However, I would not want to drop the pack from a high distance as there isn't a lot of padding underneath it. The pack appears very well made, solid, and while it is a bigger bag (fits up to a 17" laptop) I feel comfortable wearing it while I am wearing a tie. It looks nice and I do not feel out of place wearing it to meetings, etc. The bag feels bigger because it is taller. Not sure how it relates to the Concept in terms of size. I have only one poor complaint. I am 6'2" and can not cinch up the pack to fit tight up on my shoulders. It rides low and rubs on my belt, which can be a little uncomfortable. That is the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Other than that I love the pack and will use it for many years.

Upgraded from the Everki Beacon because I wanted more compartments to organize everything I use. I have been using this bag for about 7 months and its an amazing bag! Everki's lifetime warranty is the reason why I chose another everki bag! Excellent customer service in the warranty department. This bag is great for college/university students who like to carry around their laptops and tablets. It has every pocket for every item you carry. Plus the water proofing is a huge bonus. Great job in making such an excellent product! I will be using this bag for years.

I have owned this bag for just about one year. It is one of the best business packs I have ever carried. I finally switched from a Tumi shoulder style bag I carried for 15 years (2 bags exact same during that time.) This bag is sturdy and extremely well built...only flaw is a hole in a main part of the bag that was very small when I first received it - might be where a tag was inserted with a plastic fastener but has gotten bigger over time as it is in a stress point. I was initially concerned that it would not hold enough...I almost returned it before packing it up for the first time. It holds FAR MORE than the Tumis I previously used. I now travel with a tablet, MacBook Air, HP Laptop, two cell phones, accessories and personal items. Only thing I don't like is that -- like any backpack style bag -- it doesn't carry files or paper well. Those items are awkwardly fitted in where possible and usually get abused by the other items in the bag. Overall this bag holds a LOT and I am glad I switched. I will be surprised if it lasts 5-7 years like the Tumis did, but would definitely recommend this as a day-to-day business pack with a large capacity for someone who wants a backpack style bag.

I recently bought as Atlas. I was concerned as to which backpack to buy because I travel for boat deliveries carrying a Tough Book lap top which is thicker than an average lap top. I also have several other navigation and communication devices. Andrea at customer service went out of her way by mocking up my lap top with wooden blocks, inserting them into the various back packs I was considering, photographed them, then emailed me the photos. Because of this I was able to purchase the right one with confidence. I haven't dealt with customer service this good in a vey long time. I look forward to using my new bag soon. D Berg, New Zealand

BEST BAG I HAVE EVER OWNED

As a mechanical engineer I travel to and work in a wide variety of site conditions. This bag has taken a constant beating during the seven months I have owned it and so far I have not one issue with this bag. This bag is durable, lets me pack a large amount of gear and it looks great. Perfect for airline travel. First trip I took with this bag was a two week cruise ship dry dock rehab in Spain. This bag was a lifesaver. I had no issues with flight security check points. My bag fit in all the plane bins, even on the smaller European flights. Bag is adjustable, comfortable and offers good protection of my laptop, kindle, phone, etc. while providing plenty of pockets for my other "stuff". This backpack is well crafted from good quality materials. Buy it and you will not be disappointed. Dell Latitude 17".

I was concerned about buying a back pack over the internet without actually having it in my hand. Now that I have the bag all my concerns have evaporated. The back pack is very well made with the finest materials. The compartments and access are very well thought out and must have been designed by a user! Actually this is the best bag for me that I have every seen and I looked a lot.
