Anyone know how/where to buy one? 2nd year student-and my books are so heavy they have bent the frames! Any suggestions?
I have been to every dept store.
Thanks

LL BEAN! You get what you pay for. It's one of the only ones that is sturdy as heck, and the wheels are rollerblade wheels so it's silent rolling. I hate to draw attention to myself like other rolling bags that are obnoxious.

I have a Jansport and it's great and affordable. It's about $65 at Sports Authority and $30 at Ross.

My American Tourister was thirty-odd bucks a few years ago. It had one flaw: when you stand it up it tips over frontways. I used it two years in school, my daughter used it a year for school, then decided it wasn't pink so she didn't like it, now my husband uses it. It's still in very good shape, although it's still not pink.
The first rolling backpack I bought was a nine dollar job that the wheels on it broke in half, while carrying 30 pounds of books a quarter mile away from the car. So yeah, unless the thing has rollerblade-like wheels just don't buy it.
