Home > Consumer Reviews > Pelican 1495 Laptop Case - Black

This case Fits a 17" monitor. Since I have a 15inch I have room for a spare battery, travel mouse and small periferals. Secure and crushproof. I can stand my 200lb self on the lid and it only bows 1/4 of an inch. Haven't had the guts to try it with a two tonne truck......

My ONLY gripe, and the reason I bought a slightly less pretty case {from the same company} is that in one dimension it won't make all airline travel space restrictions.

Accept no substitutes. Or "How much is YOUR data worth?"

Although it was a little bigger than I realized, it worked out perfect for me as I could also place other accessaries such as a camera and charger in the case. I'm in the military and when I go on a deployment I need a case that can be packed and tossed at a moments notice. The Pelican laptop case is nothing but proven durability.

I have a HP Pavilion dv9000 and wanted to protect it as much as possible. The Pelican 1495 case was exactly what I needed. I have taken it with me everywhere and feel confident that it is protected. A perfect fit.

I bought this case to protect my new Toshiba 17 inch laptop. The case is extremely rugged and my laptop fits perfectly. The case came with the pick and pluck foam but instead of defining a custom shape I found that I had to remove the maximum amount in order to fit the huge power cable that my laptop utilizes. I was torn between this model and the one that has the organizer in the lid and am glad I chose this one. I don't think my power supply would have fit if I chose the fancier of the two. The foam in the lid is extremely forgiving when it comes to adding a slightly oversized item. I was happy to find that this came with a shoulder strap inside the case. None of the other reviews mentioned if it did or not and the product description didn't clarify it one way or the other. We use pelican products at work so I knew they were something that could be relied on to protect electronics. Of note - I ordered this through the "Optics" reseller and had the product in 6 days. If I had ordered it directly from their site I would have saved on the shipping costs.

This is an excellent product. When your business is contained in your laptop, you simply must protect it. This is the only laptop case I could find that offered the level of protecton I needed. I feel safe in all conditions with this one. This case may cost more than others, but why risk the safety of your machine?! Definitely worth the price.
