This is a nice bag for the money. It rolls easily and is well-constructed. I have not had any issues with the fabric handles that other reviewers mentioned, and I'm not particularly easy on bags. There has been no fraying to speak of, and after an entire semester, my velcro is just as strong as the day I got it.
I agree that the extendable handle feels a bit flimsy. I have had it get caught up and not want to retract once. Also, as I am in graduate work, my books are a substantial size, and this bag only fits enough for one class. I wish it were a little larger, because those books are pretty jammed in there. On the other hand, there is no danger to my laptop, as the case is well-padded, and my books aren't allowing it to go anywhere!
Overall, it is a good value. Yes, there are probably prettier bags out there, but I just don't see the need to spend hundreds of dollars for form over function in this case.
