Size is 15.9 x 11.7 in. So how can a computer with a 17in screen fit completely inside? It can't be done. So why do some say it does?

I have a Toshiba Satellite L555D-S7932 ( http://www.toshiba.com/us/computers/laptops/satellite/L500/L555D-S7932 )and the sleeve fits like a glove around it. The top fully closes the way that it is supposed to.

The Sanoxy 17" widescreen laptop Covers does not work adequately for any of my two 17" Widescreen Laptops Although it fits in my thin computer the opening which should overlap to completely envelope the machine from the first day stretched and never closed the unit completely but leaving it open to the elements. In my opinion I would not recommend the cover unless you knew for what Laptop it was designed and maybe-only-maybe it would fit as advertised!

Fairly elastic material. They are not madefor 17 inch, and you can tell one the laptop is inside. But these people want te sell thses so ad says 17", but you are right, it is not perfect fit.

Screen measurement is actually done by measuring diagonally from corner to corner instead of across the screen. 17 inches measured across the screen is probably more like a 19 inch screen. My screen measures 17 inches diagonally. It only measures 15 inches across it by 8.5 inches high. The computer itself is 16.5 inches wide by 10.5 inches deep, and 1.5 inches tall. Your screen is probably bigger than mine, like maybe 19 or 21 inches measured diagonally from corner to corner. It is the same way televisions are measured: diagonally - not across.

It does fit, tight but it fits. The material stretches & works like a charm.

My 17inch laptop (Toshiba) fits. You do not have to force it or make adjustments. Fits like a glove, slides in slides in. Even more protection I carry it in my laptop back pack. Great purchase, I PROMISE

My 17" gateway is 15.9 x 11 becUse 17" is measured diagonally and fits because it stretches a bit at least the one I got a year ago

I have a HP with a 17 screen and it works fine-I did have to extend the velcro strap so it would fit (just added velcro). LOVE it!

I have two Laptops, one a Think Pad the other a Lenovo, both 13" across. Both fit on the 17 inch without a problem, leaving about 2 1/4 inches free space on both sides. If I had purchased the 15 inch they would have fit without any overhang. I actually like the extra space on the sides however, it does require more desk top space.

This won't even fit my 15.4" Acer Laptop, NO way it would fit a 17", would probably fit a 14" laptop though.

I actually bought this as a present for a friend and her laptop was a 15 inch! I think it would work for a 17 inch as well but I didn't see it open.

The area that actually holds the computer is 17Wx15D. The 15D is measured between two spacer bars. So, a closed laptop that measures 17x15 will fit. My laptop fits fine between the two spacers. I've had this table for several months and never had an issue with it. You have to assemble it, but it's not difficult. Just don't over tighten the screws.

When I owned it, I used to put a Sony Vaio 15.5 inch inside of it and it fit quite snug. So chances are it won't fit the 17.3

Could be not large enough. I User for a 11.5 Dell and there is not much more space

No, your laptop will not fit inside. It is difficult to give inside dimensions because of the arc at the front but I would estimate the size as 10 1/2" front to back and 9 7/8" side to side. Hope this helps. I love mine!

I have a 13 inch that fits just fine so would certainly think a 15 inch computer would fit in this portfolio. I already removed the soft case inside -- you certainly would have to do so for a 15 inch to fit. Unfortunately I do not have a 15 inch laptop to confirm but do believe it would fit.

It's been a while since I ordered mine, but I seem to remember there were different sizes available. My screen as a 3/4 inch frame all around. The inside mesh is 22 3/4 inches by 24 1/2 inches. I don't know how you could have more mesh without compromising sturdiness.

What is the actual size, in inches, cm or mm of this cooler? That appears to be a secret on all lap coolers. They say such and such will work with laptops up to a certain size but REFUSE to reveal the ACTUAL SIZE of the cooler or stand. I have a Dell Inspiron 1710 laptop (17.3"). Is this cooler at least 17" or 18" wide... straight across, not diagonal!

That is correct. My laptop is 17.3 inches, but thought it would fit - not so. Fits in the case, but not in the designed area within the case.

Believe me, it will fit even a complete desktop.I bought it for my Alienware 17.3'' and it gets lost in there. (It still wont be loose, as there are cushions and safety straps).Great buy, although you will kinda look like a TMNT ( Not necessarily a con ).

The largest laptop I own is 16". It fits with a little room to spare. In my opinion a 17" should fit. It would be snug but I think it would fit.

I have an Alienware Gaming laptop that has a 17.3in display and it fits in the laptop compartment with room to spare. I have about a half an inch of room on top where the corner of the laptop is closet to the zipper, about an inch of head room at the very top and about two inches of room on the side. No jack knifing in in there either, it's perfect for my needs.
