Review of a Good Laptop Bag for Senior Citizens

Casauri Small Laptop Computer Carry Case is Great for Older Adults

Sep 19, 2008

Many senior citizens are using laptop or notebook computers and want a light bag. This review covers a bag stylish and comfortable for both senior men and women.

At last there is a laptop bag that looks like, and can double as, a very stylish everyday tote.

The Casauri Envelope Laptop Case is not made specifically for seniors, but is a unique computer carrying bag that will please senior citizens looking for a good quality lightweight laptop bag.

An outstanding feature of this bag is, ironically, its lack of features. Many laptop carrying cases are heavy, bulky and multi-pocketed. While the option of toting a lot of "stuff" can be great for teens and younger adults on the go, senior citizens may find a large bag too heavy, cumbersome, and difficult to handle. The Casauri Envelope Laptop Case’s simple style will be refreshing and a relief to many technology-savvy seniors.

This slim Casauri laptop bag (pictured below) is available in four sizes to accommodate various sized computers. The 13.3” bag sent to this reviewer fit a 13” MacBook absolutely perfectly. It is soft-sided, yet keeps the Apple laptop snug and protected. Sizes available in this style Casauri bag are for laptops sized 12 inches, 13.3 inches, 15 inches, and 17 inches (screens being measured diagonally). The slim style is good for seniors who have trouble handling heavy objects. The soft-sided outer shell saves one from bumps and bruises that can come with hard or square-edged bags.

Casauri Envelope Style Computer Tote Features

This stylish computer bag has a lined padded laptop compartment inside and a slim zippered pocket on the outside. While the zippered pocket is thin, it is large enough to hold several small items seniors may like to carry (such as reading glasses, a wallet, keys, the computer charger and more). On the other side of the bag is a fun little transparent pocket sized about right for an ID card, a photo of pets or of grandchildren, or whatever else one might like to display.

For carrying one’s laptop in comfort, this bag offers a choice of using the double handles or a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap. The connection hardware is brushed silver in color and of very nice and smooth quality. The shoulder strap clips are simple for older hands to attach or remove and swivel easily for convenience.

The quality fabrics used by Casauri are water-resistant nylon or polyester and quite easy to clean. The 2008 line is especially nice for older adults, featuring interesting and understated patterns and solid earth tone colors, including slate blue, palm green, and black. For those who prefer to draw a bit more attention, Casauri bags are also for sale in brighter solid colors like pink and orange.

Final Laptop Bag Review Notes

The price range for the Casauri Envelope Laptop Case runs $55 to $90 suggested retail, depending on size. Casauri Laptop Cases may be purchased through the Amazon link(s) on the page Coolest Laptop Bags and Laptop Computer Sleeves.

Overall, the design and construction of this laptop tote are excellent. The Casauri Envelope Laptop Cases look sharp, yet not too flashy for most seniors. This small computer bag seems like an excellent choice for seniors and baby boomers looking for a comfortable and protective laptop or notebook bag.
