I have a Sandqvist now for nearly 8y daily use on workdays and multiple airtrips as a carry-on, looks a bit rocked, but function-wise and material-wise I never had a problem. No seam losen, no no deformation, no show of wear on any straps and no breaking on any plastic part. Top Quality. For a Price. I thought about buying a new one… but why? It is still a fully functional working backpack with only slight look of usage after daily use for nearly a decade. But a new one would have a fresh new look. But then again, what would I do with the old fully-functioning one? I have to stay with that bug for another 10y I think.

Really buy it for life product for me. Sadly.
