AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Backpack (Weekender)
AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Weekender Travel backpack review
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 weekender version which we review here and the smaller and thinner overnight version.
What we like
Tons of useful organizers and pockets. Great for organizing work, tech and personal items.
Bright orange lining makes it easy to locate and find things in a hurry.
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.
SPECIFICATIONS
Dimensions: 20” H x 13.5” W x 8” D

AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Backpack (Overnight)
AmazonBasics Slim Carry On Overnight Travel backpack review
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.

AmazonBasics Carry-On Travel Backpack
AmazonBasics Carry On Travel backpack review
The AmazonBasics Carry On Travel backpack is a large capacity backpack for those who seek a reliable one-bag solution for travel. Style-wise, the Amazon Carry On Travel backpack can be best compared to the popular eBags TLS Mother Lode backpack but at a much cheaper price. Both backpacks are essentially suitcases with shoulder straps and allow you to carry a trip’s worth of clothing and items in one convenient bag.
What we like
Front organizer does a great job at storing smaller items that need quick access.
Flexible main compartment that compresses and expands as needed.
Huge padded laptop compartment is perfect for larger laptops.
What we don’t like
Waist strap feels flimsy and does not do a good job at distributing weight.
No water bottle pocket on the outside of the bag.
