Customer Reviews The North Face Electra Backpack

Great size. Not too big and not too small. Stylish and functional. Little pockets for keys and chapstick etc. I may not have to buy another bag. This one is perfect.

I love this backpack so much! I use it as my purse and can never go back. It's lightweight, stylish and durable. I wear it everyday. The size is perfect and doesn't feel too bulky or too small for longer trips. I travel with this backpack as well. It's very versatile. It's also extremely durable. Unfortunately when I traveled to Portugal I stayed in a four star hotel that had beg bugs. I ended up laundering this backpack in high heat multiple times to disinfect it and the backpack is still in amazing shape. I was ready to order a new one but nope, the backpack has kept its shape and durability. I was shocked!! You can't go wrong with this. I get compliments on it all the time.

This is a perfectly sized backpack for traveling and/or walking around the city for a day. There's enough room for loose items like keys and sunglasses, as well as a compartment for your iPad/tablet. Lightweight and functional, it's a great substitute for a crossbody bag, which tends to strain my shoulders when I carry too many items.

I originally bought this as a carry on. But it was a bit small for my liking. However it folds small and can be put in a suitcase if needed. Went on a road trip and brought it with me. Was great for walking around downtown. Held a water bottle, snacks and some small items I bought around town.

I got sick of carrying a larger purse after I started a new job. This keeps my back aligned, frees up my arms and hands for lunchboxes and notebooks, and it's the perfect size for what I need to carry along. They snuck some useful pockets all over the place. I didn't want to fit my laptop in there so be aware that it's too small for anything but a tablet-sized device.

I had the Surge backpack for years and loved it. Wanted a smaller pack to carry around daily and love my newest choice! Very durable and I still have enough room for anything I could need.

I needed a backpack that is light and comfortable for my daily walks as I often stop to pick up some fresh things for lunch/dinner and don't want to carry a bag. It's perfect for that. It is more roomy than it looks (can get a bottle of wine in it too)!

Love this backpack! Perfect for everyday use... space is enough for the things i bring daily.

I recently bought this pack online! I wanted something small enough, that does not cause me a backache, and something big enough, that I could carry my 13'' Mac in. My 13'' Mac, alongside a notebook, wallet, water bottle, Mac charger, keys, eyeglass case, and a small umbrella all fit perfectly inside this pack, making my commute to work so comfortable! I would definitely recommend this pack to anyone who is interested in buying a small practical pack!

I have spine and neck issues and had to switch to a backpack instead of purse. I bought this after seeing someone have one at the gym. I hoped it would fit all my necessities and still be light. It is PERFECT! I literally would buy it over and over again. It's so comfortable and has enough space plus more. I had three comments the first day I used it and then at least 5 more. I saw my sister at the gym and she said she almost bought this same one! I told her do it.... just not in this color. Lol

I have been looking for the perfect size backpack for cycling in Europe. Its just the right day backpack for traveling with only the essentials...All travel items left on barge daily, so just need money and passport ,phone and space for purchases in our travels to cities.

I was looking for a small daypack to use as a purse when I take my kids out. This bag is so great for day trips and fits a days worth of basic snacks, wallet, and other items I might need plus it is really comfortable. The quality of construction is great and the bag looks good. I am very happy with this purchase.

Great backpack

Love this back pack! Great quality and cute!

Going to use as a small lightweight backpack when I go bicycling

Not to small. Turn out to be just the right fit. It's all me .

Great backpack! Perfect size for what I wanted it for. Quality design, great extra pockets, nice color.

I bought this bag for an upcoming trip. I wanted a mid size backpack that could fit all the essentials but not be too bulky. This should be perfect for what I need!

I really like the bag however I bought it with the intentions of using it for work and it's so small I can't fit my laptop in it.

Travel

Love this backpack! You know how some BP's are stiff? Zippers stick? This BP is "squishy" with two solid zippers, an inside lined pocket, and plenty of room for a day hiking or just as a regular "purse". Really like the size. It's not one of those that you find yourself bumping into people and have to stay "I'm sorry" every time you move. Seems like it's made well and should last a while. Totally recommend. Great value.

Personal and business use - I needed something small and without a lot of straps hanging from the backpack. I choose it because of its sleekness, simple, and stylish design. I'm a bus driver I need keep to keep a few accessories like sunglasses, regular glasses, wallet, and light jacket. I have an over hang storage compartment above the driver's side that I use.

I love how attractive and compact this bag is, and I use it every chance I get. Originally used as a daypack while traveling in Japan and it worked really well. I was slightly worried about the lack of either sternum or waist straps, but because of how small it is, I rarely carried a heavy enough load to warrant straps. This was sometimes TOO small for the long days but not a big deal, since I wanted a small backpack to begin with. The hidden straps on the front are a nice feature that I used when I ran out of room on the inside (carabiner + any object with a loop/handle).

using this for travel for my daughter type one diabetes supplies. Is the perfect size!

I purchased 2 of these as surprise after Christmas gifts to my grandgrrls. My daughter already owned one of her own and complained that she never got to use it because one or the other of her daughters was using hers. My grandgrrls were "Over-the-Moon" when theirs arrived on their doorstop. My daughter face-timed me so I could watch as they opened the parcel.
