Pros: Couldn't tell you.

Cons: Also couldn't tell you, aside from it being dead.

Overall Review: There will always be products shipped that are DOA. I seem to be one of those unlucky people. I can't speak to the general quality of the item, but the 1 egg should alert people to the possibility.

Not built for larger laptops

Pros: Compartmentalization. You can organize your stuff using the multiple pockets that they provide. It can also hold your bottle on the side, though it is not made wider bottles. It only just holds my metal water bottle, which is about two inches in diameter. Has a very long pocket, which is ideal for long cables and a power brick. Also very lightweight.

Cons: Within the first few weeks of use, there are some loose strands here and there. I'm not pleased to see fraying. Furthermore, even though the Timbuk2 website states that this backpack works for my laptop (an MSI GT60 0NC), it just barely fit. I REALLY had to struggle to get it in there. It was a two-man job. When I was done, it looked like my zipper would pop from a wrong move. I was disappointed. It doesn't have much capacity in general.

Overall Review: Seems like a nice backpack in general. I'd love to try and use it for a thinner laptop, since that seems to be what it's built for. Otherwise, it just doesn't do what it was advertised to do.
