JanSport Driver 8 Rolling Backpack - Wheeled Travel Bag with 15-Inch Laptop Sleeve One Size Navy

I'm thrilled to share my experience with the JanSport Driver 8 Rolling Backpack, which has been a game-changer for my 10-year-old granddaughter. Last school year, she was struggling with a heavy backpack every day, and I was worried about the impact it was having on her back. As a concerned grandparent, I was determined to find a solution. That's when I discovered the JanSport Driver 8 Rolling Backpack. I checked with her school to make sure rolling backpacks were permitted, and thankfully, they are! This backpack has been a lifesaver for my granddaughter. No more struggling to carry a heavy load every day. The rolling feature is so convenient and easy to use, and it's made a huge difference in her daily commute to school. I'm impressed with the quality and durability of the backpack, too. The material is sturdy, and the wheels are smooth and quiet. The multiple compartments and pockets keep her belongings organized and within reach. What I love most about this backpack is the peace of mind it gives me. I can rest assured that my granddaughter's back is protected from the strain of carrying a heavy load, and she can focus on her studies without worrying about her bag. If you're a parent or grandparent looking for a solution to the heavy backpack problem, I highly recommend the JanSport Driver 8 Rolling Backpack. It's a must-have for school kids, and I'm so glad we made the investment. **Pros:** * Rolling feature makes it easy to transport heavy loads * Durable and high-quality material * Multiple compartments and pockets for organization * Protects kids' backs from strain and injury * A must-have for school kids **Cons:** None! I hope this review helps others discover the benefits of this amazing rolling backpack! Read more

My kid's backpack is going to be particularly heavy this year and this backpack will perfectly hold all the books and endure the teenage angst without breaking the back. I chose this rolling backpack because of Jansport's tested lifetime guarantee to fix and return any defect (of which I've only had one after subjecting a Jansport backpack to the grueling Saharan Desert for two years--and they fixed it!). The durability and quality makes this rolling backpack worth every single penny paid. The colors and functionality make it perfectly appealing to the teenager, too. Read more

Good quality. Not sure it's worth $100, but good quality nonetheless. Got it for our grandson because his bookbag was too heavy but he wouldn't use the wheels because he didn't want to get them dirty! :) Teachers said all the kids should have wheels on their bags. The zippers are okay. For the price I would have liked to have seen them a bit higher in quality, but these will do. It held up to being stuffed to the gills with books and all the things for middle school for most of the year (it was purchased after school started). Read more

This backpack is a great addition to our school supplies. It rolls like a dream, has a durable shell, and solid seams. The color is a really nice blue and will really help with all the books my kid has to carry this year. It’s a huge plus that there are three pockets, and it has a wide enough base that it doesn’t tip easily so long as it isn’t front-loaded. My older child has owned this same backpack for four years now and it is still going strong. It has even survived a forgotten school lunch in the front pocket (so very gross) and the lining cleaned up well with dish soap scrubbing and antibacterial wipes. I thought it was a goner for sure. I would recommend teaching kids to lift from the top handle of the backpack rather than the telescoping rolling handle when going up stairs. We have had a few friends break theirs using it improperly to lift. Otherwise, it seems really durable. Read more

This rolling backpack is holding up pretty good. It has a heavy, seemingly durable material. Plenty of pockets. Four (4) double zippered sections with heavy duty zippers and pull tags attached on one side. Upgraded from a cheaper, less costly brand ($35 range) that I had actually really liked because it was proven to fit under an airline seat during my infrequent traveling which I found very convenient. I don't think this pack will fit under a airline seat. It is quite larger in size. A very annoying characteristic from my former cheaper bag was it wouldn't stand up on it's own, where this bag achieves that ability very well and I find that a HUGE plus. I am not sure if I like the white plastic material lining. It does seem thin and might not hold up, and I can imagine something sharp or pointy might tear it open but I do suppose liquid spills might be easier to clean up. The handle on my old bag was annoying that it would lock and you would use force to extend it and unlock. This bag has a button trigger lock which is another good plus, however I do find myself unlocking it by accident by bumping the button. This can be annoying when in a hurry. I always saw Jansport has the expensive designer brand but I need to find something more heavy duty. I think this works well for that category and don't mind paying the extra dollars. This product cost me $90.00 on Feb 2, 2025. Note: I chose the RED color because the price is much less than some of other colors, like the blue or black is $150. Read more
