Reddit reviews HARIO VHS-80B Double Vacuum Structure, 800ml, Black

I am a software developer and I recently bought a new backpack after using the same bag for 15 years.

For me, the perfect backpack must have these features:

• be the right size for EDC and light travel
  
• be made of materials that will last at least 10 years
  
• make it easy to get what I need when I need it
  
• have a good external bottle holder
  
• have a laptop compartment big enough for my 15" Lenovo Thinkpad
  
• not have too many straps or rear access zippers
  
• make good use of all available space
  
  For me the perfect size is around 25l to maybe 30l. That is a bit bigger than I need for EDC, but big enough to pack for travel and still small enough to be a personal item on an airplane in the USA (other parts of the world are more restrictive). A panel loader is a bonus and I don't like roll top bags. I don't like rear zippers because I get paranoid about people behind me. I don't like extra straps that can snag on things when you are in tight spaces. I'm not interested in compression straps or a sternum strap or a waist strap. A free standing bag that doesn't fall over so easily is a bonus.
  
  My new bag is a Setout Laptop Backpack and my old one is an old style Incase Icon. The Icon didn't have enough internal space and the bottle holder was too small and weak. The Setout is better, but I wish it had hard feet like the Icon. I tend to carry more bulky items than flat book shaped items like I did when I originally got the Icon backpack, so the large space in the Setout is perfect.
  
  I carry a coffee server, a 24oz insulated bottle of tea, a tech organizer, headphones, my big 15" laptop, and a small notebook to work every day and the Icon wasn't able to fit them, but the Setout can quite easily.
  
  I'd also like to give a shout out to Tortuga's great customer service.
