Pretty good Contractor's bag [Posted on 2007-10-27]
This contractor's bag is going to be perfect for some folks and not perfect for others. It is well made and has some nice features. I like the way that it doesn't unzip everywhere and dump things out. The only negative I have is that it is a little small for my particular need and taste. That comes from a guy who really doesn't have a need for a lot of space. I would move up to the larger model if I were doing it again.
As long as I manage the space, it works for me.

I purchased it as a gift for my husband who is a general contractor and he loves it. He rated it 4 of 5 stars. Definitely worth the $$.
Truly a Tough Bag [Posted on 2008-03-13]
I work(ed) as a project engineer traveling throughout the country, carrying this bag, for 2 years. It survived over 200 flights per year, being dropped in the dirt at job sites, has been overstuffed with my laptop, power brick, 2" of file folders, 2 to 3 engineering books, cell phone, pda, mouse, a dozen CDs, checkbook, gloves, eyeglasses, safety glasses, half a dozen legal pads, two dozen pens and pencils, two drafting rulers, lan cable, power adapters, usb cables, usb 4-port hub, mini-multi-outlet, travel network hub, and more. Sure it's jammed and wieghs a ton when it is that full, but the bag can hold it and hold up to it. It is soft-sided, so when it isn't jam-packed full it 'feels like a much smaller bag'.
It isn't as 'elegant' as some bags, but in my hands it outlasted my Samsonite rolling contractor bag, my Tumi toughbag, and any of several attempts at leather bags. To me, elegant is being able to carry everything I need without the ultimate loss of elegance -- not having something, or having a bag that self-destructs while I am at a customer's site.
The two features I find most helpful are: 1) The laptop compartment faces up, allowing you to pull your laptop out at airport security very conveniently while keeping the bag on your shoulder, and 2) all the exterior pockets are well secured with big zippers and compression straps, to make sure your stuff doesn't sprawl all over the floor when you do eventually accidentally drop it.
For someone who is looking for a highly versatile, exceptionally durable laptop or document bag that happens to be availabe at a great price -- this is your bag.
After 2 years of abusive service mine looks very rough, one of the metal clips that hold the shoulder strap did break but was easily replaced with a $1.99 caribiner, and one of the zippers is stubborn but functional.
Good Quality Briefcase [Posted on 2008-03-28]
Bag is well made and looks great, though I think it could have been a little bigger. The reviews on the larger "Pro" bag turned me away from it, but I really like this bag.
I work in a corporate office and I think it looks great with everything I'm wearing and it's different from the bags that everyone else carries.
sturdy man-purse [Posted on 2008-06-20]
I have been pleased with my purchase of the Bucket Boss Briefcase. It is replacing a leather man-purse that was constantly falling apart. The Bucket Boss is well constructed and is holding up well to heavy and rough working conditions. Lots of pockets for folders, tools, and gadgets! Very utilitarian, wish there was a more stylish version and an inch or two wider would make this the perfect man-purse.
