Great, but
I've been putting this backpack through the ringer, as it seems many other reviewers have too, for three years now. Today, the zipper completely broke. Have to either replace the whole main zipper (very expensive) or the entire backpack (also very expensive). I'd probably buy it again; I'm just disappointed in the zipper.

Perfect work bag!
I have used this bag for about 4 years and it has really stood the test of time. I recently put it in the washing machine w a pair of sneakers and it came out smelling fresh and looking good! I was thinking of getting a different bag, but this one is really holding up well. I’m glad I decided to keep it.

Warrantee claim = 15% off a new backpack
Swiss gear warrantees are a joke. We bought a similar backpack and the handle came off within months of getting it. We submitted a warrantee claim through Swiss Gear and after jumping through all of their hoops, the warrantee claim was finally approved. And they gave us a coupon for 15% off. 15%! What a complete joke! I will never buy this brand again.

No Actual Warranty
This started out as a great backpack but after only 1.5 school years, the elastic in the shoulder strap broke. Even though Swiss Gear claims to warranty this product for 5 years, they do not honor it. First I was offered a 15% off coupon, then a 20% off one and now a 30% off one. I do not want to bargain. I also do not want to purchase a new one, with the chance that it is going to break again. My son is used to having backpacks last for years and years--only buying a new one when he outgrew his kindergarten one or started high school. I bought him this new one for college fully expecting it to last the whole time. It did not last even two full school years.

Still Going Strong After 10+ Years
I’ve had this backpack for over 10 years now, and I can confidently say it’s the most durable and reliable bag I’ve ever owned. It’s been with me through countless travels, daily commutes, school, and now work. I’ve used it in all kinds of conditions, packed it to the brim, tossed it around, carried it through airports, trains, buses — and it just keeps going. The zippers still work smoothly, the straps are solid, and all the compartments are just as useful today as they were the day I got it. The laptop protection has saved my gear more than once, and the overall build quality is nothing short of impressive. Even after more than a decade of heavy use, I still use it regularly — whether it's for everyday essentials, groceries, or work gear. It’s not just a backpack anymore — it’s part of my routine, and it still delivers. If you're wondering whether this is a good long-term investment — the answer is absolutely yes. This backpack is built to last, and it proves it every single day.

I like this for a hiking bag. My friend has a bad hip and she can hold the handle while we traverse terrain.
This is the second one I have bought. About the other one 3 years ago. It was really good except for one zipper got stuck on the small side pocket.

Toughest Backpack Ever
Swiss Gear make the most durable backpacks, and luggage ever. I had this same backpack, and after 14 years, and constant travel, use, and being on 5 continents, it finally wore out. No hesitation in getting the same thing again.

It is technically a smartscan bookbag
Received as a replacement for a defective bag. There are less pockets than my previous 6752, and the quality of the straps are inferior. Pretty disappointing, but I was provided a replacement bag, so that deserves a second star I suppose

6752 my target purchase
I purchased this 6752 for my mother last year. She loves it. She loves simplicity the access to pockets and how user-friendly endurable it is. It’s an excellent 27 litter that will get you through the weekend if you’re looking to do like an overnight or 2 day. The look of it is very simplistic and stylish, which I like because it doesn’t draw attention and the top handle is amazing once that pack is full. Swissgear you done it again.

Poor quality and terrible customer service
Poor quality and worse customer service. A Tera appeared in a seam after being used less than 20 times in 6 months. Wrote to Swissgear customer service on 1/8/25, they finally got around to my warranty request on 4/28/25. Which leads me to believe they have a lot of warranty claims.
