Comfort Carry Laptop Pack, 30L is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 151.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Backpack - Great Water Resistance I normally don't write product reviews but I had a great experience with this one. I've had the backpack for about a year and a half now, and regularly use it for carrying books, folders and my laptop around campus and it has held up great. But what really surprised me was this: it fell into a stream I was crossing while hiking and down a 10-ft waterfall, but bobbed right back up to the surface because it was so watertight, and floated near the shore until I could pull it out a minute later. There was maybe half an inch of water in the bottom, and most of my gear was wet, but not soaked, and I got my backpack and gear back. The lining has also held up well in heavy rain, with some stuff inside being damp afterwards but only slightly, and in lighter to moderate rain I don't remember anything getting wet yet. Notably, the laptop compartment will get damp around the edges but this hasn't impacted my laptop in the past. Great purchase, definitely worthwhile. I expect to be able to continue using this for several years.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Strap already breaking We bought this for my 10 year old for his new school this past November when we moved. At the end of January, I noticed that the strap as already fraying. He is in 4th grade so his backpack is not that heavy. He also didn't use it over Christmas break. This back pack was only used for 4-5 weeks before it started breaking. We have a duffel bag from 30 years ago that is still in great shape and is still regularly used. LL Bean used to be the standard in quality and now I find everything we order seems like its poor quality and falls apart quickly. ( Except the waterhog mats, those are amazing!) All in all, very disappointed in this back pack and its quality. I would not recommend purchasing it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Looked nice, but poor quality seams & fabric I purchased 2 of these backpacks for my boys in High School in August 2022. I purposefully purchased these higher end packs for them to carry their school-issued laptops. Over the past 20 years I have purchased probably a dozen backpacks from llbean for my 3 kids and they always outgrew the packs. No issues. Not so this time. The straps are fraying from the shoulder, the fabric is tearing & the para cord has frayed. I’ve never returned anything to llbean, but if I could, these would be the 2 items I would send back.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great pack My son loves it! It accentuates his laptop and his other school items. He finds it very comfortable to wear.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Daypack bag Bought this bag for my son’s school bag. Doesn’t hold a lot of books/folders and his lunch box. The buckle broke off as well. Otherwise it functions as a backpack

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Roomy, lightweight backpack is a hit This is the backpack my grandson picked out for school this past fall (2023). He loves it! It is roomy yet lightweight. I love the fact that it is so durable. I only wish that I had been able to get it monogrammed for him but that option wasn't available. It's a great backpack though and I would buy it again.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Nothing like my old LL Bean backpack Honestly, I sent it back. The material was thin, the zippers were lightweight and the size was small. It was not even close to My old reliable LL Bean backpack that I bought over 10 years ago. Very disappointed.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Holds my water bottle! I bought this to hold my computer. The shoulder straps are padded as well as the internal wall to protect the computer. As with all bags, it takes several uses to find the right placement for the straps.
