Apparel reviews of Crumpler THE BEER BACK Laptop Backpack (Brown/Light Brown)
Customer Review: Great Looks, Fantastic Build Quality and Some Good Features but Expensive
Rating: 3 Stars
At half the price the Crumpler The Beer Back would easily get 5 stars. But at the price I paid for it ($170) it's tough to overlook some of the minor problems. First the good:
- Fantastic build quantity
- Beautiful streamlined designed
- Cavernous interior. Easily fits a 17" laptop and a lot more stuff
- Innovative laptop 'sleeve' that can be removed and used on it's own
- Two massive exterior pockets that are so deep that there's no fear of stuff falling out if you don't close them
There's also something that's hard to quantify or express about Crumpler products. They may not be the best and they often have shortcomings but they just make you feel good about owning and using them. Kinda like Apple!
Now the bad:
- Padded back straps seem to be a bit long. I'm 6' and I've got to yank them almost as tight as I can to get the pack to sit comfortably.
- The outside pockets are so deep that it's tough to get anything out of them. It's almost like digging through the pack itself.
So depending on what your expectations are and whether you use your pack as a purse to organize everything while you're on the go you'll either love it or hate.
If you are looking for a pack with a dozen small pockets all over the place then this is not the pack for you.
If you're looking for a pack with great comfort and ergonomics then this is not for you.
If you need a well-built, great-looking pack, with lots of storage that fits a 17" laptop AND you're willing to pay almost twice the price of the competition then go for it.
