Big case & big features for big laptop

Apr 28, 2008 - By J. Caudell (Knoxville, TN)

This case is the reason why you will gladly pay more for quality, and why I will never regret this purchase. I've used bargain priced, hand-me-down cases and shoulder bags in the past and have never been happy with the results. If you want a quality bag that will withstand the bumps and scrapes throughout the years, a bag with more pockets and common-sense features than you can imagine, and a bag that says I am "100% business" and not another "West coast fly-by-night dotcom wannabe" this is the one for you.

If you are not accustomed to lugging around a big bag (I am 6'4" and this bag fits my stature) this may not work for you. I won't lie to you - If you are not strong enough to carry a 17" Apple laptop around, then this bag won't make it any easier. If you fly, or if you are serious about protecting your assets, buy this bag. It's tough, and it's worth it.

Great Bag

Nov 30, 2007 - By Moithuk (New York)

Very good bag. Only downside is that it isn't water proof. The bottom of the bag got wet and my contents in the front pocket got wet. Computer was fine but not certain that will always be the case.

Otherwise bag is great.

Excellent !

Jun 1, 2008 - By B. Larson (Santa Rosa, Ca USA)

Excellent product, even better than I expected. Every detail, from stitching to reinforced and cushioned handles is well thought out and executed. Plenty of room to take all of my working files, mouse, power adapter with my Mac BookPro....and so securely protected in the no nonesense ballistic material. In fact, I like this unit so much that after receiving it I also purchased it's skinny lower profile brother, the Brenthaven Eclipse', for those occasions when I don't need to carry anything except the laptop!

A nice and handy laptop case

Dec 14, 2007 - By Jamil Saad (Hoover, AL)

I had this case for about 3 weeks now. I really like it. I had a different one from Brenthaven for 3 years but it was a bit bulky. I like this one because it is thin and light.

Works great for 17" MacBook Pro!

Apr 19, 2008 - By D. L. Whitson (Grand Rapids, MI USA)

I have been using the Brenthaven ProLite III case for a month with my 17" MacBook Pro computer and it is great. It not only holds my computer safely with its power supply, I also carry two portable hard drives, my graphics tablet, two thumb drives, and all my cables (several USB, 400 Firewire, 800 Firewire, etc.) with room left over. It is easy to carry with either the shoulder strap or the comfortable handles.
