This is exactly what I was looking for with the added feature of a zippered pocket. Although this is a 14″ sleeve, it’s perfect for my 15.4″ laptop, which happens to be 14″ wide. Many other reviewers seem to think that a laptop sleeve should emulate a case. Not to be confused with a laptop case or bag, a laptop sleeve is just that and is meant to provide added protection when placing the laptop in a bag or container that isn’t designed to transport a laptop, such as an attache case.

I bought this case for my 14″ Lenovo ThinkPad with the 9-cell battery. I wanted extra protection for when I’m carrying it around campus in my backpack.
I was pleased to find that this case fits snugly around my extended battery pack with enough room for my power adaptor and USB mouse. The outside pocket is actually a functional size, even taking into account the stretching of the case around a computer. I was also impressed with the padding, which seems denser and higher-quality than other similarly-priced laptop sleeves I have seen at retail stores.
After a lot of comparison shopping, I’m quite satisfied with this product!

I have to say this sleeve fits my HP dv4t laptop (with a 14.1-inch display) perfectly, no sliding around inside the sleeve. It provides a reasonable cushion protecting my laptop, but not too thick to become cumbersome. I also noticed the material inside the sleeve, like some kind of soft cloth, cleans up the finger prints on the glossy laptop surface each time I put in.
And I like the extra outside pocket which holds my USB thumb drive, a pen, a few pieces of paper notes, and occasionally my 2.5-inch portable USB hard drive.
By the way, I got a blue one, and its blue color looks much better than it appears to be on this website… I like it, both its color and its function!

No regrets about buying this. I wanted something well-made at an affordable price that I can slip my brand new Dell D630 into when it’s not in use or when carrying in my backpack. I didn’t want extra space in there and this fits like a scuba suit over the D630. If you use the extended 9 cell battery, the material stretches just enough over the battery to zip shut without pulling at the seams. The zipper is sturdy and goes three quarters of the way around for easy removal. The outside pocket is handy for storing my mini cordless mouse, USB key, and extra modular battery, probably a tight fit for the larger 90watt adapter though that’s not really why I bought this. All in all, I’d definitely recommend for 14.1 inch widescreens such as the D630 or something with similar dimensions.

After looking for sleeves at different stores, I have to say that this sleeve is definitely a great quality sleeve and Amazon’s price of $22 can’t be beat. Sleeves that are not even this nice sell for $30 on average at retail stores. This sleeve is nice and thick to provide that cushioned support and the inside suede-like material is definitely a nice touch (I didn’t see that in other sleeves I tried at retail stores). The extra pocket on the side will fit most laptop accessories, and although it would probably fit the AC cable, it would stretch it too much in my opinion. So, it’s meant for other smaller accessories such as a usb hard drive, cables (usb, ethernet etc), head phones, thumb drives etc. The inside of the pocket also has a small pouch made to fit usb thumb drives – again, a nice touch in design.
The only thing I wish were different is the size, but this is really a minor issue that will not apply to everyone. I have a 14.1 inch wide-screen laptop from Acer and it fits fine on the sides, but there are 1 – 1.5 inches of extra space on the top (probably to fit 14 inch standard 3:4 ratio screens). I just wish it fit snug all around, but I found that to be a problem with every 14.1 sleeve I have tried in retail stores. So, when you pick up the laptop in the sleeve, you can feel it slide a bit within the sleeve, and you get the feeling that it might slip out of your hand. But it’s just a matter of getting used to it and keeping it in mind when you grab the laptop. The only way to guarantee a snug fit is to order a custom-made sleeve for a particular laptop model.
So, all in all I give it 5 stars for quality, good design with practical ideas in mind, and an unbeatable price on Amazon.
