When this arrived I was really excited to use it for the first time, 3 days later. I did fit lots of clothing - I used 3 packing cubes, the large one fit right into the main compartment and kept the clothing tight and neat. The top compartment had the two smaller cubes side by side with a little extra space. My biggest disappointment was the front pocket, if you completely fill up the bag, the front is not so easy to use or doesn’t fit so much at all. I ended up filling the front pocket with laptop, work phone and earbuds before packing the top half of bag. The zipper around the top felt loose and I was afraid I was going to rip it. Wheeling it through the airport was easy. Overall great bag, but don’t overfill it.
