Review of Case Logic Rolling laptop and Projector Case
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
"This is a well-designed and well-constructed product, but unfortunately its projector compartment design is becoming obsolete. The compartment is designed to accommodate projectors up to 2.6" tall, but the current generation of video projectors (especially the increasingly popular DLP models) are taller than this. A common height nowadays is 4.3".
It is possible to secure a taller projector in the compartment with the four wide padded Velcro belts, but the locking web belt to secure it in place is too short even at its full extension. In addition, the separator flap that covers the compartment has to bend over the taller projector.
I believe this basic design could be tweaked without too much trouble to accommodate today's generation of projectors, but anyone considering this case should be aware that unless they have one of the older slim models, it won't be a happy fit.
Other than this, I think the case has a nice design. The wheels are a good size (not too small) and can handle rough or uneven surfaces easily. The telescoping handle operates smoothly, and disappears completely when stowed. (You cannot lift the case by this handle, however; it does not lock in the stowed position.) The zippers are of good quality. There is plenty of room for all kinds of stuff in the various pouches and compartments.
If only Case Logic would tweak the projector area to handle increased height (it just needs another 1-1/2"), this case would be darn near perfect."
