Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was a little on the fence about this bag because I couldn't find anything about the company at all but the other reviews were so positive, I gave it a shot. Honestly this is the best small backpack I've ever had! It's sturdy and has the perfect amount of pockets. I compared it to my Fjallraven Kanken backpack and it barely stacked up to this bag. First of all: padded straps - thank god! They don't dig into my shoulders or give me friction burn. Second: pockets!! Where the Kanken is horribly lacking in organizational elements, the Himawari has a beautiful compartment system. Third: back padding. I don't entirely mind that the Kanken doesn't have any back padding because I rarely carry my computer in it, but now that I have a bag that does have this padding, I'm really loving it. My 13" macbook and little LG tablet fit nice and snug together, but not so tight that they get squished. Fourth: price. I'm so impressed with the quality of this bag that is a fraction of the price of the Kanken, as well as the Doughnut brand backpack that this bag seems to be an imitation of. I was considering get the Doughnut bag in Macaroon but price different is incredible for essentially the same product. I'm super blown away by this bag! My only qualm is that it doesn't have one of those secret back pockets for your phone or wallet. Also, for this particular color, the "grey" is actually a little purplish. My phone camera doesn't quite pick it up, but it's more of an steely purple. I really like it but some might not.
