My daughter loves it!! It has several pockets outside and it holds lots of books. The good thing is that there is a pocket in the back for the straps, which is a plus because when the backpack is being rolled the straps don't get tangle in the wheels.

This pack has held up for two years with regular daily use. No problems with the wheels or handle, but do not love the "clip" closer on the top outside pocket. If the backpack is at all front heavy, you could lose items. Overall, a great buy at this price!

This backpack is a good value for its WalMart listed price. However, this is probably targeted for students or even travelers who are likely to put this item to a lot of harsh, rugged wear and tear. For that purpose, I don't think those users could expect this backpack to last too long, unless they took really good care of it. I can see how reckless and harsh use of this backpack could easily break two things: the handle, and those plastic roller wheels. In most "rolling luggage" I have observed in the past, those two parts (the folding handle) and the rolling wheels are the first things to break under rugged use.

I've used this rolling backpack for 2 days. I am rolling it through downtown Dallas over cobbled streets and DART rails. Wheels are still attached, I know that some had an issue with them falling off. Only thing is that when loaded with books, it has a tendancy to fall forward. I like the pockets and especially the one for a water bottle, it's HOT in Dallas! I wish that the shoulder straps could be concealed better. The pocket that holds them isn't deep enough. Overall, I like this backpack.

I am a teacher's aide at a high school & work for several teachers in several rooms. Rather than have several sets of work items (pens, stapler, etc.) I bought one of these two years ago to keep my work supplies in & it has worked great. I just bought this one to take on a trip to Europe this summer. It will be my carry on....that's how well I like the one I use at work.
