Im looking into buying an incase backpack to transport my 15in MBP. Anyone have any experiences with these? What do you think?

I just wanna carry the laptop equipment and few notebooks/maybe a textbook.
Do they have enough room for some extras?

Thanks!
 
Yep, using one for college right now. Got a 13 inch MBP, but there is room for more stuff. Great packpack! If worried on size, you can get the one for a 17 inch laptop.

So you can fit a few books in the compact one?
 
This is the compact one, go for the larger one if you need a lot of space
There's my MBP, a 250 pg book, 320 pg book, 320 pg book, 760 pg book

that's what it looks like with everything crammed inside, very heavy but doable

I looked at these when I got my MBP, not enough padding IMO. I ended up going with a Swiss Army bag and an incase foam sleeve.

Yea, I've heard this about the compact models. I have a nylon incase sleeve meant to be carried by a shoulder strap, but it'd be really bulky inside a backpack I think.

I dont like how incase has only a 1 year warranty either. Makes me skeptical about their build quality. I'm looking at a thule pack now. I'd prefer not to use the sleeve, But i know I may have to.
