Reviews of Mobile Edge Milano Laptop Handbag, Small (Black)

1.) Best product available after extensive research!!

I travel extensively as a business professional, however, I am also extremely fashion-conscious. I did extensive research on a laptop bag prior to my purchase. My main criteria for my laptop bag included: (1) A protective case for my laptop that could be removed easily from the bag at airport security without the contents of the bag collapsing into the interior. (2) An attractive bag that appeared to be a larger handbag versus a laptop case. (3) A bag that could contain a few files and personal items in an organized manner. After reviewing many bags online and in stores, I decided on this bag. I feel that I have made the best decision as this bag meets every one of my requirements and exceeds my expectations. I was afraid that the faux-crocodile exterior would appear cheap, however, it is finished well and does not appear inexpensive. I love the metal spikes at the bottom of the bag that protect the bag when it is set down. The bag is large enough to fit my 15.1" laptop, but does not appear cumbersome to carry. The handles are long enough to carry over the shoulder (even over a bulky jacket) but short enough to carry in my hand as a petite woman (I'm 5'2"). I could not think of any negative aspects of the bag except for the fact that there are no exterior pockets (even a small one for a cell phone or passport). I think this decision only adds to the exterior quality of the bag. I would highly recommend this bag to anyone whose criteria is comparable to mine!!

2.) Professional and Stylish

This bag is beautiful. It is sturdy and very professional looking, and the croc pattern of the bag makes it stylish. Another plus is it has metal feet to protect the bottom of the bag. I highly recommend this item, even if you do not have a laptop computer. This bag would serve you well if all you ever did was use it as a professional tote for work.

I had been looking for a bag for my laptop for awhile. Most of them were too expensive for me. This one has a great price and looks very professional. I've had a lot of people compliment me on my cute bag since I started carrying it. It's perfect for taking my laptop back and forth from home to work every day. It is not too big, but has plenty of room for some papers and office supplies that I need to take with me. I highly recommend this bag!

I was a little worried about spending almost 70$ on this bag, but when I recieved it I was so impressed. I really love this bag! Very well made!! The crocadile pattern is a lot more prominent than the picture shows, but I really like it. To be honest I shy away from croc patterns, but it really works with this bag! I have a 15.4 in. Gateway laptop and it fit perfectly in this bag.

I bought this for a friend who is a real estate agent. It was a birthday present. It was a larger than I expected. I have to say she loved her present and I liked it so much I'm thinking of buying one for myself.

This bag is absolutely perfect! I bought it for my 15.4" Toshiba, worried it might not fit. The computer just BARELY fits, which is good, because I'd hate to carry a bag any bigger. It's got many pockets for pens, cell phone, makeup, etc. I love the sueded red lining. I showed it to friends and colleauges the day it arrived, and everyone raved. It's seriously the best deal(bought it here for $55) I was able to find after several days (hours on end) searching the net for the perfect fashionable laptop bag!

I purchased this to carry a laptop and other assorted paperwork. The compartment for the computer is snug, but that's a benefit--no bouncing around. The styling is classic and the various storage pockets a real plus. You won't find a better bag for the money. Good looks, practical, suits this busy real estate agent to a "T". Highly recommend!

This bag is wonderful. It looks to be of superb quality. I have not used the bag outside my home yet but I am using as a storage bag for my laptop. So far I have not had any problems with the bag.

This bag is perfect for what I needed it for. I just purchased an HP laptop and I wanted a "cute" bag that I could take to work and school. I searched high and low for fashionable bag at local electronics stores but they were bulky and they didn't look feminine enough for me. This bag is everything that I need it to be. It small, fashionable, and it fits my laptop and all of it accessories.

I think this bag is great! Not only is it practical but also beautifully stylish. The red interior pops and adds a bit of sass. My laptop fits in nicely and there is also plenty of room for neccessary extras (battery charger, documents, etc). The quality of this Milano is excellent, made sturdy and built to last. You will not only enjoy your purchase but be the envy of your friends.

Transitioning to a new career, I needed a portfolio. I wanted something stylish, lighweight, functional, big enough for my 12" laptop and a few other necessities with lots of pockets for compartmentalization (sp?). I got all of that in this bag. I was worried that some said it looked blue but my bag looks black and the croc pattern looks so nice. The little bag inside and all of the little compartments really help one stay organized. It even has little stubs on the bottom to keep it from wearing poorly. The straps are long enough that I can put it on my shoulder, but short enough so I can hold it in my hands. I'm glad I made this choice.

20.) Well-made, beautiful bag with lots of perks.

I am extremely happy with this bag. It's well-made and beautiful, and it has held up under some serious wear. The straps have been great when the bag is full and heavy. I also love the special design features: business card holder (which I use for my keys), cell phone pocket and the other larger pocket (which is zinc-lined, more than I needed) for my small wallet. There's also a metal interior clip for keys, and two other interior pockets, in addition to the laptop holder. And I like the small makeup/accessory bag that comes with it. I just realized that one of the elastic holders for pens/pencils is designed for chapstick/lipstick, too.

You can't beat the quality for the price here.

My recommendation would be to go for the larger bag if you know you are going to be carrying a good deal of stuff (large books or many files + the laptop).

I bought this handbag as a Christmas gift for my wife. She and I had looked other handbags in local stores, but we did not find anything that we liked. When I saw this bag on Amazon, I liked it and ordered it just days before the 2009 Christmas. It came in time. She loves it very much and uses it to carry her laptop. The quality is super. Now she wants to upgrade her laptop to match this handbag!

I love how this bag looks, it's the perfect bag for a professional. I work and go to school, so it's not a everyday bag for me because of its limited space. I can just get in my day minder, a notebook, laptop and the charger. and it does get a little heavy for my shoulders. But other then that its an awesome bag

Ok, so bear in mind I have only been using it for a week (I will update if necessary later on). I have been searching for a bag or backpack to use for school - I always take my laptop, power brick, a couple books, notebook, day planner, umbrella, plus the usual wallet, cell phone, pens, and girl products. Needless to say, I need a lot of space, but not a huge bag that is a pain to carry around. This bag does the trick! I can fit all of the above in there (easily! just need to be creative with how you arrange it), and it doesn't get too heavy. Everything is easily accessible too. I would remind people to switch shoulders each time you pick it up, so as not to cause any future problems. I do wish there was room for a water bottle (but I don't know how they would fit that in, and it isn't hard to carry around by hand), and maybe a zipper on the outside, but those are minor complaints.

All in all, a great purchase for a student or a professional!

It has the perfect amount of pockets & space inside. I'm able to fit my laptop, power brick, mouse, and a couple of folders with some room to spare. I was a bit concerned with a previous posters indication of "not enough padding" - but as long as your aren't throwing your bag around it's OK. Like a previous poster, I love the red lining to easily find items. Be careful though, the red has rubbed of & stained my headphones. (The only reason I rated at 4 stars)

I really like the look & design of this bag, but you can't put too much into it. There are nice compartments inside yet when I add my travel charger it's bulky & things don't seem to fit too good - even with my 13" laptop. Overall, it's cute & a good item thus far (it's ONLY been a month).

Super stylish bag. Sharp red lining and lots of internal compartments which keeps everything neat and organized. As mentioned by others, a downside is holding capacity of the bag. Extremely tight fit when adding a daytimer and some basic accessories (blackberry, writing instruments, etc.)plus a laptop. Overall, good buy for the price.

I searched far and wide before I finally placed an order for the Milano. I really like this bag - specially since it has everything a laptop bag must have for a Woman. with all the manly looking boring laptop bags around us girls don't get a variety to choose from. But it's nice to actually find designers who think of style as well as practicality. The only reason I gave it a 4 * rating is cos I'm not too keen on the fux croc look. I was hoping it wouldn't be very prominent but not so! it's VERY prominent! and will take some getting use to if like me, you prefer a polished looking bag (and those are impossible to find with the Milano's features!) It fits my 14 inch HP really well and have loads of space for my other stuff! all in all - I would have to say good buy! oh and I bought the smaller version - there are two.

28.) Excellent Bag, 4.5 stars.

I bought this bag for my laptop about 5 months ago when I needed something less bulky than I had. Its got loads of room for screens up to 15", as well as space for essentials like your power cord, pens, mobile phone, cosmetics, hardcopy files, etc. I'm always on the go and my bag has taken some damage as a result. A few scratches but they're barely noticeable, and harsh weather and my computer remains safe.

I don't regret making the purchase, its definitely worth the money, however I'd use the fabric sheath that comes inside. I noticed after a few weeks of heavy use my white MacBook had very faint black lines on it from the lining of the bag's computer pocket. These can be removed with a product like iKlear though.

I have a macbook pro 15.4" computer with a protective case and it wouldn't fit into this computer bag, (it might have fit without the protective case but I didn't check). The bag seemed well made but I didn't care for the color. It was ordered in the blue because I wanted something more casual than the dressier black. I was surprised at the metallic/lavender sheen and decided that the color was not at all what I wanted. I have found Mobile Edge bags to be well made and generally classy. My hope is they will come out with a bag in a denim colored leather for everyday non-work related use. Though the bag in general was attractive, it did look like cheap imitation leather. It was returned immediately.

31.) Pretty but Very Heavy!

I got this case with my first laptop a few years ago. It is indeed a beautiful and sturdy case. HOWEVER, if you plan on moving around a lot while carrying your laptop or have any items you plan on putting in there that are lighter in color this case is a very impractical buy. Not only is it an extremely heavy bag, it is also quite bulky and the handles are not flexible at all. After walking 3 or 4 blocks, the handles start cutting into my shoulder, and despite switching shoulders while I walk from my car to the office, I'm constantly sore because the bag is so heavy. The red interior also rubs off and dies everything red (my poor white macbook power cords, etc all have red stains on them).

I travel quite a bit, and have efficient packing down to a science, but no matter how lightly I pack, this case has become the bane of my traveling experience.

So unless your laptop and all of its accessories are black, and you don't plan on actually carrying this case around too much, I would strongly advise against it and look into something of more flexible material less weight.
