One customer said in their five-star review: "Brilliant rucksack with so many different compartments to keep all of your belongings organised. The bag is sturdy and the waterproof pocket is handy to protect your clothes from accidental leaks.

"The security pocket is also brilliant, allowing you to store your phone, wallet and/or important documents safely between the bag itself and your back."

Another wrote: "Works great packed for a 3 day trip and fit in the carry on no problems. And on your back easy transportation through airport, the compression straps double as a coat holder for easy access."

While a third said: "Perfect size for EasyJet and because it's square it takes much more than a conventional rucksack.

"When full it is quite heavy though, so perhaps too good for some our less strong flying friends but it's not a requirement to fill it! Lots of useful pockets."
