BerghausUnisex 24/7 Backpack 25 Litre, Comfortable Fit, Durable Design, Rucksack for Men and Women

Great for work

Brilliant rucksack. The seller and other sellers all told me that the pocket at the front is not a real pocket and doesn't open. It does open! It's a front pocket! Nobody seems to know this though.

Perfect size for everyday use with great adjustability. I wish it had an outside zip pocket for small things, and a rain cover.

Bought for my daughter as she has obliterated numerous cheaper rucksacks at school. My son had one of these previously so knew we were getting something reliable.This one has lasted far longer than any she has had before. The zips have remained intact and no holes have formed despite intensive use.It is functional with just enough pockets and slots without her losing too much stuff inside.It is a good size for school work together with a packed lunch and random other things a teenage girl carries about.The outside pocket is also useful for stuffing wet jackets and suchlike without getting the inside wet.

This is a great backpack. I cycle to the supermarket and fill it with heavy shopping 2 or 3 times a week and all the zips and stitching is still perfect after 5 years. Used it for 100s of gym trips, low hundreds! and usually popping into Lidls next door so I cycle there, the 6 miles home with damp gym gear and weighty meat and veg no problem (other than being exhausted from the exercise!). the 'flow technology' seems to work well so my back is no stickier than the rest of me after a hard ride.At only 25L I probably make more shopping trips than I might, but I love fresh veg (and bread) so I'm not complaining. My15.6 laptop fits in fine when needed and the inside padding makes it comfortable. I usually put a small towel or something shock absorbant on the bottom in case I drop the bag but if I put it in the pocket that lines the back inside, it's off the bottom.Only one small inside zip pocket isn't perfect but it's there so I put a spare bank card in it in case I forget or lose my wallet. which happens to me too often! I safely tie bags onto the outside straps sometimes which works even if it might make me look a bit daft. The side pockets are great for water or even wallet and phone for just local shopping trips. The 24/7 plus has a clip fastening largeish pocket on the back, which again can be useful for damp towels or litter after a picnic, whatever.This is probably the first product review I've written on here despite at least one order a week over 10 years plus, (usually wanting to keep good ideas to myself!), but reading other reviews and thinking I might benefit from another bigger one of the same I concluded I don't need another and it was £28 very well spent 5 years ago.Again referring to another review it usually stands up happily on its own unless your packing prevents that. Don't know if I'm allowed but it cleans up like new on a gentle wash!NB. These are pictures of a 5-year-old well used and loved backpack

Great bag. Excellent quality. Very pleased.

I'm very pleased with my new backpack.This is the second Berghaus I've had - the first lasted 5 years but was stolen. After daily use, it didn't look very much different to when I bought it, really.I like this new one in black, so fashion as well as usefulness.This is a simple, robust, backpack and does not have masses of pockets - it's exactly as described in the blurb. For me it's ideal because I take it to work each day and on work trips around the UK. There's a section for my laptop, and another inside for zipping passports and boarding passes etc securely inside. The rest of the bag I use for purse, make-up bag, kindle, yoga leggings & hoodie, and it takes these with ease. I've got one of those slim gym towels in a bag and the Berghaus has a clip on the outside apparently designed specifically to hold that when the towel's wet on the way home. One of the best features is the in-bag key ring, great for easy access when you're arriving home after dark.On the outside, I can fit a water bottle and a flask of soup in the two side pockets. There's a front pouch suitable for a hydration bag which luckily I don't need on the London metro, but I find it invaluable for sticking my boarding passes and bag of declarable liquids etc into when going through security at the airport.This bag counts as hand luggage on all the airlines I've used and, if not too overloaded, as the 'extra' bag allowed by Aer Lingus. Also it counts as an 'inside' bag on National Express coaches and thus travels free.For me, one of the best things about my old Berghaus was the construction of the straps which minimise back ache on a decent length walk, pluse the anti-sweat fabric on the back. I'm glad to see these are replicated in the new bag.Berghaus is a proper local firm located in Tyne & Wear and I'm glad I could get BackPack II from them. However, I shall report back if there are any negatives in due course.

Love it
