Due to, for Notebook case, very low price, I came out of a very inferior processed suitcase. But this is absolutely not the case !!!
The case is designed very stable and thus offers optimal protection in case of falls or jostling.
The case is surrounded by pretty high looking Aluleisten (I've seen worse), which are interconnected via rounded black plastic corners. The surfaces of the top, bottom and side panels are made of black plastic napped.
The only weakness of this plastic, however, that this relatively easily scratched when touched. These scratches are not particularly striking (the black looks at these points a little lighter), so you can ignore it.
The locks on the case are not particularly high, but serve their purpose.
Another plus on the eight cases are attached feet. Four of them of course are on the outer edge (rear) of the case and provide optimal grip in the state, even when the case is loaded with the notebook. I had previously another model of Hama. In this case laden existed an imbalance, so I was constantly trying to lean the trunk at any place. This was not a state and the more glad I am now that this case does not have this property. The four other feet are on the bottom of the case so that it also horizontally relative slip rests and also is preserved when dropping from scratches luggage.
I need not say much to the inner life. I have a 17 inch notebook. Even if it is in the interior, I still have the power supply, a normal USB mouse and the power cord to accommodate enough space beside the notebook. Furthermore, a slight padding, also to protect your notebook, and an individually adjustable Velcro to secure exists. If you still documents, pens, USB sticks, etc .. want to put, so can these things in the comfort of the, located at the top, drop trays.
All in all, apart from the somewhat cheap looking castles, a very good product, in which you can safely tuck in for that price.
For this reason, 5 stars !!!
UPDATE 15/12/2012
So now after 3 years continuous daily use I have singled out the case because so slowly dissolved the glue joints and plastic compounds were brittle. The suitcase was used almost daily and also not spared! He was upset and is also the one time or another down or fallen over. To date, he has my laptop with all these drops successfully protected. The issues raised by many reviewers defective locks I have still not ... The case will now be replaced with a backpack and used in the future for tools, since he, as previously described just now is on! For the price and the duration of the case was more than adequate and well! I would still recommend it today!
