Would you rather use a cheaper backpack or more expensive? Let’s talk about it!
The best I could afford
You would think more expensive would mean better quality but that isn't always true. I still lean towards more expensive.

@james22939 I have the Beis Mini weekender. I think $100 is kinda too much for it. Then I found a loose thread & thought, well it was only $100, if it were one of my Louis Vuitton bags I'd be pissed.
I have the larger version of the black white bag (17”) and I love it. It fits under the seat easily. I can put my dslr camera travel cube at the bottom and it’s a perfect fit. It also has a zipper pocket for the battery, and a separate compartment for your laptop and iPad/kindle. I highly recommend!
I got my daughter the one with the wide opening when she went to France. She loves it. She said the wide opening made it easy to find everything she needed. And it was big enough to hold all of her “need” items for the plane and an extra set of clothes.
That’s so great to hear!
I've owned one like the brown and white one for daily use for years. I love all of the pockets!
Great to hear! 🥰
Same! I have the black one and I love it so much.
Side pocket with the opening is for small packs of facial tissue.
I have 2 of the larger backpacks and we love them.
As a mature, note I did not say senior 😉, seasoned traveler I have learned how I travel, what to bring and what to leave at home, and now luckily get to 'travel often'. I just took the step into a luxury personal item and upgraded to a Monos Metro Backpack. I just traveled with it domestically and felt I finally 'pack well'. The last part is all due to this channel and giving me the pieces to have many 'Ah Ha' moments. Thank you for the variety of content you create.
I’m so happy to hear that! Enjoy your next trip, and maybe I’ll run into you around the world one day 🥰
I'm new to your channel, but I bought the first bag you showed in this video, last night. I'm so glad I found you because I have 2 week long trips coming up. One cold weather, one beach-y. I'm so excited to learn how to pack this bag!🎉🎉
I love all those organization pockets. The purple one looks like it’s for a student so I’d get the white black brown one. You did such great job of finding bags that have ALL the features. Of course it costs $87 in Canada, so not a real bargain, but not bad.
Personal item backpack mini challenge idea! Do you think you could pack one of these backpacks with items for a week or 2 week travel? I ask because I'm starting see more videos of travelers using personal item only bags due to overhead bins becoming full quickly. You are the packing QUEEN! I know you can do it!
These are way too small, being international sized. With what I packed I don’t think I could get one plus size outfit in there with my stuff. But I do pack personal item only sometimes- I have a few videos of it. They are just spirit/frontier size, not international backpack size :)
@ItsTheKellys I actually have one of these bags but the larger size. I wonder if that will make a difference. I believe the bag you reviewed was the 15inch and the larger one is the 17inch. Maybe try that one since the bags are inexpensive. I saw a different review video and someone did pack for a whole week in the 17inch. I thought of you immediately lol! 😆
I have one of those Loveook backpack with the rigid opening. The trick, I've found for packing it, pack softer stuff at the top so it will close easily and schmooshe down. JMO.
You finally reviewed my Lovevook bag! 😬 Last year I was debating between the traditional book bag styled one and a few other book bags and used your guidelines to choose this one. Been loving it for all my international travel and want to get other colors cuz there are so many! Thanks for basically confirming I picked the right affordable bag lol ❤
Yessss I wrote it down when you asked for it and I love them! Thanks for the recommendation and I’m glad you love yours too!
I have 2 Lovevook backpacks. The one on the left and the clam style opening one. I just got the second one. Will use it on a future trip. The first one holds a lot. Lots of pockets.
I own the purple style one. One in navy and one in black and absolutely love them!! I traveled internationally and domestic with them and they are perfect. Can not recommend them enough. Great video 😊
Wonderful, thank you!
I love the black and white bag! I have one in black and one in pink. I travel with them always! I also have others hooked on them as well.
Great to hear!!
I personally would like both cheap and expensive, thank you for this video💜
You’re welcome 😊
Love the purple
My husband bought me the one with the wide opening last year. Love it. That opening and all the pockets are amazing
I can’t wait to travel with it! I’m glad you love it
@ItsTheKellys I have a Lug backpack that is extremely similar with that doctor bag opening. And while it is amazing, it was like three times the price of the Lovevook bag that I like just as much
I have both! I love them both! I use the on that looks more traditional for a backpack for work and the one with the wide opening for travel!
Great to hear! Thank you!
Thanks for the more affordable options. 👍🏼
Our pleasure!
Oh~!! YAY !! This is what I was waiting for ,too !! Super !! 👍👍😍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🎒👜👝💞
I appreciate this video. I an debating this exact bag for my european trip this summer
I hope it was helpful! My friend took the purple on our last trip, and she seemed to enjoy it!
I have a Travelon anti-theft backpack, but i have been eyeing that wide-opening bag for awhile now. I might have to make the switch!
What is nice about the wide opening one is that it stands up and does not tip over🙂
Great point!
Like the white backpack
I have both. I use the purple colored one every day and the other I have in the bigger size for a travel personal item Love Lovevook products!!!
I have the one with the wide opening and I think it's great I also have a vb which I paid over 100 for and it never gets used
I’m glad you love it. I have an old VB too that I used years ago, but haven’t in a while.
I would use the one with the wide-opening
Me too!
I have the larger Lavook backpack (same as the black and white one) and I love it. It fits so much! I took it to Spain and had no issues there either. I don't love all of the shiny gold on the zippers but, that's a me thing. It fits so much and the larger one has a separate zipper that opens to the laptop section.
Oh great to know it worked well for Europe! I love a good laptop pocket
Wait yours has a separate zipper for the laptop … I don’t think mine does. I’ll need to look at that!
Same for me on the gold zippers and logo! 😂 definitely a me thing and I wish it matched the bag. Probably the only complaint I have about it but it honestly works so well and the color I picked it perfect (will be getting other colors) so I’m a convert. ❤
@@catiejohnson7910 It does! It's a 17" and I had no issues taking it to Europe. I actually didn't bring my laptop so, I used that to store a small compression cube with an extra shirt, underwear, etc. (Just in case my bag that I checked didn't make it) FYI, it actually holds more than my Bento Bag and Calpak Luka!
@@jodiroth5934 so the dr’bag opening one you have has the added zipper. I have one and I don’t think it has that. Now I’ll need to go look online. Cause that sounds awesome. Thank you
I have 2 lovevook backpacks, one 15.6 inch and 1 14 inch. the smaller great for day trips used it twice last week. both under 25 I believe. Depending on the color, style and Size seem to be good deals. I like the 2 I have. Both shades of Gray. the smaller one opens at top and the other is like a regular back back and opens quite wide. Lots of pockets. It would be hard if I had to pick the favorite
Love the video. I can’t handle backpacks, so am looking for personal items that are cross body with trolley sleeve. This brand looks like it has a lot of reasonably priced bags!
Let me know if you find a good one!
Great review. Is the purple one Waterproof?
I have tried many backpacks trying to find the perfect one (which has not happened yet)
I have two similar to the Lovevooks. I do like the wide opening one however you can not put stuff near the top as it makes it harder to close, but I do like everything in one place as I am not searching through several pockets to find something. I do find that it is harder to squeeze it under the seat as the top has no give in it.
Which one did you find was easier to pack and fit stuff into?
I also put a scarf in my bag as I get cold on the plane and take a change of clothes so I don’t have to go into my carry on bag on top.
( I had a flight attendant spill a beer on me when she was giving it to the passenger next to me on a long haul flight😵💫) learned my lesson.
I fly home to the states twice a year from Australia.
I have enjoyed your videos and now my mom watches them🙂
The white one was easier to pack for whatever reason! Maybe it was wider
@@ItsTheKellys will you be using that on your next trip?
I am really trying to pack less on my trips home so I can do more shopping😆
The purple one is more practical for my needs. The color 1 Black is $29.98 with a $10 discount. ❤
Even better!
Great video. I wanted the Lovelook backpack for a trip but it wouldn't arrive in time so I got another backpack for my personal item. I am returning for a longer stay so need more room than the backpack offers (it was jam-packed and difficult to unload/reload at security) so was looking at the Beis mini weekender or similar or do you think a duffle is a better idea please? I travel with 15.6" laptop in a hardcase, over-ear headphones in a case and then the usual suspects us girls take, you know wipes, liquids bag, etc. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Personally I would never use a duffel or something that large for a personal item, I think it’s unnecessary for plane essentials, and only a few US airlines will accept them, whereas any international sized ones won’t.
@@ItsTheKellys Thank you for your reply. I'm moving from Australia to Thailand so would be international Flight and looking for a bit more space. I found the backpack a bit small and tricky - too many pockets for lil ol" me! I have seen your review on the Beis bag so was interested in that one. Thanks for all your wonderful tips, I havent' travelled in many years so you really helped me prepared.
Packing is the first step. The real test is how do you feel after wearing them as a backpack for 30 min.? Does the weight distribute properly? Are the shoulder straps more comfortable on one than the other?
To be honest, if I’m wearing it as a personal item, I’m never wearing it on my back, because it’s always on my luggage with the sleeve. But my friend brought the purple one on our last trip for 11 days, and it was great!
I have 2 of the Loveook with the wide opening. I managed to get a lot of stuff in there. Didn’t use the charging thing so I can’t vouch for that.
I will tell you that my lighter colored one stains very easily .
Ah good to know, thank you!
I have used the charging port. It definitely works. The water bottle pocket with the slit opening is where I keep my disinfectant wipes or tissues. I can easily pull them out of the opening. I’ve traveled multiple times with it & I’ve never had a problem with its size.
Have you tried Portland Gear? They have a beautiful backpack I just ordered last night. Today I got the shipping info. Impressive.
I’ve looked at their website but haven’t reached out yet :) thanks for letting me know the experience was great so far! I’d love an update when you get it :)
Would you say the first pack is almost a "dupe" for the Beis Diaper bag? I don't have kids but I was eyeing up the diaper bag as I like the idea of the mini weekender but I prefer backpacks.
I have their original diaper bag that’s a tote, and yes it’s just a great tote with a lot of good pockets! As for their other baby stuff, I’m not familiar.
Which bag is easier to put under the seat?
They are about the same size. So either would fit well.
Can you do a men’s personal small leather duffle review?
Does it have to be real leather? I’ve done the monos vegan leather duffel. I don’t know of a lot of other personal item sized ones.
@@ItsTheKellys ended up ordering a MSVT vegan leather duffle. You’re right there aren’t too many duffle/weekender that fit the “person item” dimensions. I’ll let you know how this one is when it arrives. Thanks for the response!
@Danny-ti8qs thanks for the update! I’ve been dying to check out MVST stuff but they never write me back haha
I already have a black one like the black & white bag & love it. Many of us cannot afford the high-priced luggage you usually show. If we purchased them, we wouldn't be able to travel. Some people justify the purchase of expensive luggage by saying they will last. However, a $30 backpack will last about as long as a $200 one and if it doesn't, another $30 one still saves a lot of money. When I see a video recommending a suitcase costing several hundred dollars, I just close the video & move on.
I try to review luggage that has a lifetime warranty because I traveled with cheap bags for my first 70 countries around the world and they always broke. I had realized after all of that, I could have just gotten a decent one. That’s kind of what launched the channel. But with a backpack, I agree.
The zipper queen is back
I’ve heard nothing but things from this brand!
