Notes from our data check
Brand spec: 'Dimensions: 17.91" L x 15.75" H x 9.84" D (45.4 x 40 x 25 cm) Weight: 3.68 lbs (1.67 kg) Capacity: 42 L'. The array is reordered to [H, L(width), D]. CLASSIFICATION: Béis's own compare widget says 'Airline size: Carry-on' and its FAQ says the Mini Weekender, not this bag, 'is sized as a personal item'. This bag will fail most personal-item limits. It is included only because of search demand for 'beis weekender bag personal item'. Same-page conflict: the compare widget says 17.91" x 15.75" x 9.8" (45.5 x 40 x 25 cm), 3.6 lbs; the spec block is used. Laptop pocket up to 16". Price $118. Amazon: no listing for the full-size Weekender found (only the Mini), so null.
