Customer Reviews
The tan inside ensures you can actually find everything inside rather than being a black abyss. Fits my laptop and planner in the sleeve that has a magnetic securing strap rather than velcro that fades overtime. For its size and all you can fit in it, it's shockingly not bulky. Plenty of pockets, exterior fabric is durable yet classy and it keeps its structure even when empty. Love a luggage sleeve too for travel. Cannot recommend this bag enough.
There are MANY features I need in a travel-friendly work bag and this bag nails it. I chose it after a ton of research.
It's clear that a lot of thought and consideration when into the design of this bag.
1. Outside bottle pockets. Things don't spill inside the bag.
2. Shoulder straps are sturdy and the "drop" lands in the right place for comfort. Also, the straps are designed in such a way that they fall to the side when not in use. On other bags, the straps stay upright and you have to battle them every time you reach for something.
3. Cross-body strap --key for times when you are running, schlepping bags, etc. It might be nice to see a pad on the strap in the future, for added comfort.
4. Large exterior pocket. This is a must for quick access to passport/phone. And it zippers for security!
5. Zipper top. When your bag is wedged sideways under the seat in front of you for take off, you need it to fully close. Otherwise, your stuff escapes. Be warned that the zipper doesn't go end to end so there is a gap where things could fall out but I haven't had any issues with this.
6. Laptop pocket/cushion.
7. Professional look. Once I'm off the plane, this functions perfectly as a briefcase.
8. Sized right. Large enough that I can fit laptop, snacks, books, neck pillow, etc. But small enough that it works perfectly as a briefcase in an office setting.
9. Durable material. So far the material has held up well for me and cleans easily. Perhaps some minor pilling but not very visible.
10. Pronged bottom. It has those 4 little posts on the bottom so it's slightly off the ground when you place it down, therefore less likely to become soiled.
11. Has the pocket slide on the back for sliding over the handle of a roller suitcase. This is essential for air travel. If Pond wanted to elevate the bag further, they could add zippers to the top and bottom of the sleeve so that it functions as a pocket when not in use. Not critical but a nice feature I've seen on another bag.
12. Backpack straps. I haven't used this as much as I thought I would --mainly because the shoulder and cross-body strap work so well. But it's awesome to have this option.
I've taken this bag on several long-haul international trips now and it's held up very well. Cannot imagine traveling without it now .If POND makes a leather or faux leather version, I'd be interested in the upgrade!!
I’ve had my Transform Tote - Air Edition for a little over a month, and I love it! It’s very professional looking, and the various pockets keep me organized. My old bag was big and bulky. I’m so glad I made this purchase!
I really have no regrets about buying this bag. It’s really spacious and there’s compartments for my laptop and bottle. The strap slides off sometimes but that’s the only issue I have
I love that the bag has enough pockets and zippers but not too many! Also love that it stands on its own. I've looked for the perfect travel tote for a long time and this is almost perfect. I wish it were slightly larger and the handles and shoulder straps had a little padding but those are the only complaints.
