Backpack for college4
I decided to buy this backpack because my dog literally ate my other one. I was in a great hurry to buy another backpack of high quality, so I knew that I needed a Jansport. I bought the Super Break backpack in Orchid Corduroy. In case there is another person interested in this color, I really like it; it is what I wanted. Imagine the color of lilacs. The backpack has only a large compartment and a smaller one for your pens, etc.

Now to describe the backpack: The main compartment seems to be big enough for an average sized college textbook, a small book, a planner, a small 3-ring binder, a notebook, and a few loose papers. Right now I am taking a summer class, so I have few books to carry. In the fall, however, I will probably carry an average of six books each day to class. The good news is that with all of these items to carry for my summer class, there is still a large amount of room left. I would estimate that this backpack could carry about 3 average sized textbooks, a few smaller books, and a planner (with creative stacking). I also carry my lunch in my backpack, and a water; these fit in the pack well.

I gave this backpack a four because of the smaller compartment. As I look at the backpack, the small compartment could carry several loose items. The "organizer" only consists of a larger pouch, say for a scientific calculator and a floppy disc, and only two pen or pencil holders. As a college student, I must carry several miscellaneous items from pens to index cards. I feel that for people in the same situation, this backpack may not meet the above mentioned need. I feel that I could use more compartments for organization.

The backpack is medium sized overall; it is not so small that a student couldn't make it, but it isn't large enough to accomodate copious amounts of books or other school supplies. Overall, the comfort of this backpack is, on a range of 1-5, a five. The straps on this pack are padded very nicely. I am currently carrying around 15 pounds of books; not even close to what I usually carry, but so far, so good. It also features adjustable straps with more of a range than I am used to. As a small person, this was a great bonus. If you use both straps, this pack should not shift around too much. However, I only use one in order to get the backpack off and be seated quickly. Also, the backpack unzips without any trouble whatsoever (don't you hate it when the zipper gets stuck in the fabric?).

I hope that I addressed any concerns about this backpack. I would recommend this backpack for college students who do not have to carry MORE than four or five average sized textbooks, for people who are going on a small trip (two outfits, one pair of shoes, toiletries, entertainment, and snacks), and perhaps even for sporting purposes.

Excellent Light Bag, but thin fabric4
I love this bag because it is light and roomy. However after laying it on the concrete a few times, it has 2 small holes at the bottom because the bag is so thin. I got my money's worth, but will look for something with a leather bottom if you lay your bag on the ground at all.

Spacious5
This backpack is very large inside. It is the third year I am using this brand and style. Being a girl I have to have a new color every year. This one is green. I like the color, it's very vibrant. Last years' was pink and though it was durable, it got dirty too easy and had to be washed quite often. Yes, I wash it in the washer on gentle cycle and hang to dry. It can hold all of my school books, but I'm thankful that I don't have to bring them all at once. Front zipper pocket is very large and holds my pen pouch, a small purse, and cd player. All around great backpack and it's washable, what more could you ask for?
