AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Backpack (Overnight)

With the AmazonBasics Slim Carry on Travel backpack, Amazon takes a shot at offering a stylish yet functional travel backpack for those who need a reliable carry-on for flights. Our first thoughts when coming across the AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Backpack was that it was a noble competitor to the popular eBags Professional Weekender at almost half the price.

The AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Backpack comes in two sizes; the overnight version which we review here and the slightly larger weekender version.

What we like

  • Tons of useful organizers and pockets. Great for organizing work, tech and personal items.

  • Stylish yet understated design. Can be used for both business and personal use.

  • For the price, we are impressed with the quality. The materials and construction compete with more expensive travel bags.

What we don’t like

  • Clips that hold the shoulder straps in place are made of cheap plastic. Not sure how they will hold up over time.

  • Main “suitcase” compartment really can’t hold more than a change of clothes. If you need more room than go with the AmazonBasics Weekender version.
