does it fit a 17inch laptop

I've used one with a MacBook Pro 17" for years. Other 17" notebooks have larger outer dimensions, so might not fit as easily. Unlike the first answer, mine was not a stretch to fit.

There seems to be a fair amount of extra room around my 15" MacBook Pro. I could see it fitting a 17" laptop as well. I remember seeing a review of this bag from a lady who purchased it for her husband who had a 17" laptop and her being satisfied. I'd say go ahead and purchase it. If you feel it is too small you can always return it, but I'd be surprised if you aren't happy. I love this purchase. It is made very well, and has a great assortment of pockets/features. Look at the video review which another purchaser posted. Good luck to you.

I have an HP dv7 17" laptop. I could shoe-horn it into this pack, but it stresses the zipper. By the time I add 30-40 lbs of school books it will pop the zipper right open. That is what eventually happened to my last SwissGear backpack (different model), and my laptop fit into it w/o stressing the zipper. I'm returning this backpack... still trying to find one to suit my needs.

It fits but a little too tight for my Dell M6800 Workstation, the sleeve was molded by the laptop's longer corners also the stitching was straining, by the time it loosens up the corners of your laptop will be nicely scratched not worth it IMO and I am returning it unfortunately.

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.

No problem with the 17 inch laptop. You'll have to define several. Eight ? or Four. Four might fit, eight....might compromise the intended design. I like this unit. Pretty strong and i kinda "baby it", anyway.

It fits snug with the 17 inch, and it has a securing flap for smaller sizes. I think it will work fine. Good luck.

I doubt a 17 will fit, but I don't own one to confirm. I have a 15 MacBook and it's a tight fit.

I have a rather large size laptop and it fits well. My laptop measures 16 1/4 " side to side. Not sure if they measure diagonally to get to the 17.3". Hope this helps

Yes, this bag will fit a 17" which is the reason I bought it. It is a perfect fit and I love this bag.

I have no problem fitting my 17" laptop in it. Many times I fit my 15" macbook as well (meaning, 2 laptops)

I don't know if it will fit but can give you dimensions of my laptop so you can maybe judge.From corner of screen to corner, (like you would measure a TV screen), it is 17.25". Hope thisis helpful.

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

A 17 in fits perfectly, a tad bigger would fit as long as the laptop was real thin.

Yes, I just tried it with a 15'' chromebook and there were 2 inches left over. I think you could even fit a 17'' laptop if you wanted to.

Our laptops are 15.3 inches and put that in backpack for size and it plenty of room and some to spare. Our best guess is that the 17.3 would fit too.

Yes. My laptop was 17 inches and there is still a bit of space in the case. I hope this helps

Definitely. Have only used it with 15" laptops but I'm pretty sure it can fit a 17" laptop as well.

I'm not sure of the exact dimensions, but it fits my 17" laptop. There isn't any extra room though.

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
