Review: Wonderful Bag, easy to transform, full of compartments and pockets for organization - I love this bag. I replaced an old wheeled backpack that I had purchased at a leather store. This one was more expensive, but after 1 1/2 weeks of use, it's worth every penny... It is the size of a large backpack and the handle has 3 height settings, plus can be put away and zipped into a pocket. There is a fabric handle as well, so you don't have to use the pull handle to lift. It is easy to switch to a backpack. It has a nice front pocket with inside slots to put pens and such. The next compartment is a laptop bag with a laptop pad and room to include other things like a 9X12 notepad or a cooling pad, and the laptop charger and anything else, like maybe a portable keyboard. The biggest compartment holds lots of stuff. You could put a set of overnight clothes, etc. in this compartment with toiletries, etc. I use it as my briefcase and include notbeooks, a portable desk set in a bag that holds pens, sticky notes, etc., a headset with microphone, etc. with room to spare. The two side pockets are a nice size for extras. On top of all of these awesome compartments, this bag is waterproof. I life on the West Coast where it rains a lot, so this is a big plus. One of the nicest things about this bag is how easy it is to pull. I replaced a bag with this one that had "inline skate" wheels and it had a drag on it and was hard to pull, especially in the end when one of the wheels fell off. These wheels are set in such as way as the bag just travels right along with ease. The pull handle is also easy to set up and down in the different settings with a simple push on the button. Review: A great book bag - Got this for my 5th grader. Only real problem is the middle zipper only unzipps 1/4 the way down the sides and makes it harder to use. But it holds A LOT of books and all her other 11 year old "stuff" also. Up date 07/25/13 - got a new one for the new school year (6th) - most of my child's book bags only last 4 to 5 months and the ones with wheels have been a joke in the past. But not this one! Up date 07/22/14 - Not only did this bag last the whole school year but it is being used through the summer also! It is still holding up nicely. Zippers still all work, the wheels turn great, the handle still goes up and down AND it could pass for "slightly" used if I took a wet rag to the outside. All I can say is wow this was a great purchase! Up date 02/21/15 - We retired the 6th grade bag and got a new one for 7th! That says a lot that we keep going back to this bag. We love it! The only reason we retired the last one is because the whole family were hard on it over the summer. It got used a lot, sleep overs, vacations, summer camp, the lake....It is a very versatile bag, not just for books and school. ## Features - Large main compartments and multiple pockets allow you to keep all of your gear secure and organized. - A fully padded Cushion Zone laptop compartment accommodates most 17-inch models. A media pocket with headphone port keeps your music close at hand. - Multiple pockets including a zippered mesh pocket, pen pockets, lidded media pocket and key fob hook are perfect for keeping all of your smaller items secure. - Backpack straps are stored behind the zippered back panel. - All terrain style wheels are corner mounted for stability. A molded kick plate gives extra protection from abrasion. - Dimensions: 21 x 14 x 9-Inch ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007E6GGGU | | Age Range Description | Kid, Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #927 in Laptop Backpacks | | Capacity Total | 23 Liters | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (2,367) | | Department | unisex-adult | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 96 Ounces | | Item model number | 53992-1050 | | Manufacturer | High Sierra | | Number Of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 14 x 0.1 x 8.8 inches | | Units | 1 Count | ## Images ![Powerglide Wheeled Backpack, Black, One Size - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Y+PH5POZL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it fit under the seat in an airplane?** A: I’ve traveled international and domestic flights with this as my carry on since 2015. It’s still like new, and now my wife prefers it on budget planes to save luggage fees. Works every time, so I’m not sure why others say not. True, it does not fit under all seats, but often under the seat ahead of me at my feet, and definitely in the overhead compartment no problem. Some flights check it at the gate to go underneath, but hey, I grab it on arrival, head right past baggage claim, and out the door in a jiffy. **Q: I have eight 3-ring binders I need to fit into this backpack, in addition to a pencil bag and other odds and ends. Will all this fit?** A: The inside of the large compartment towards the back measures 6" deep by 12" wide by 16" high. The smaller compartment towards the front has a padded compartment for a computer and some more space in front of that and it measures also 12" wide by 16" high but is about 2 1/2" deep. The small compartment at the front is about 9" wide by 9" high by 2 1/2" to 3" deep and it has built-in compartments. I think the 8 binders would probably fit in there, but I don't know exactly how thick your binders are. This is a good quality backpack for sure. **Q: Is this bag water resistant?** A: Yes it is. **Q: It is hard to tell from pictures and description, is there a zippered water bottle compartment on both sides or just one?** A: Both sides! Never tried putting a water bottle there, though! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful Bag, easy to transform, full of compartments and pockets for organization *by R***E on March 10, 2018* I love this bag.

Great for 17" laptops *by S***L on May 17, 2016* I love this backpack! Fits my 17" Lenovo Thinkpad perfectly. Holds 1 to 3 nights worth of clothes, if you are a light packer. Has a great function area in the front zipper area. holds bottles on the sides. Fits perfectly in the overhead bins of American, United, Delta and Southwest without any worry. Haven't used this on super small planes yet, but so far, so good. Great for 1 to 2 night trips as a carryon. Sturdy, rolls great, no issues with handle. So glad I did my research on this one. Just love it. I get looks from passengers as I roll it on board, and ever so lightly, lift it in the overhead without issues, plus its soft so I can smush it and move it around to fit around other bags. I don't think the others think it will fit. But it does. I haven't tried to put it under the seat yet. No need too. Just a great bag that holds a lot. ## Frequently Bought Together - High Sierra Powerglide Wheeled Backpack, Black, One Size - High Sierra Freewheel Wheeled Laptop Backpack, Black, One Size --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/1341435-powerglide-wheeled-backpack-black-one-size](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/1341435-powerglide-wheeled-backpack-black-one-size) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
