Family favourite
The Osprey has been a favourite for each of the grandchildren when starting secondary school. The space is well organised, and the pack is robustly made, able withstand the 'rigours' of school life.

Exceptional EDC++
I have a couple of other packs in the 30-32l range, but in my first few weeks I've found the Nebula has exceptional real world "effective" volume. The compartments are large, flat and rectangular, meaning that they work great with packing cubes and there's a lot of corner and edge volume available versus more rounded packs. I'm also regularly running to the office with it and - whilst clearly not a specialist running pack - it' doing a great job for a running commute. Really impressive.

Overall the pack is very
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall the pack is very functional with multiple pockets for organization. I am giving a 4 star, because the older model had better pocket organization and seemed to be larger, where as the newer pack doesn't open as large and doesn't have the same pocket configuration or removed several pockets. Additionally. It would be nice for the front pocket to clamshell open not slip open

Second time buying - I love this pack!
I first bought this backpack in 2018, and it traveled the world with me. I'm a field researcher who needed a hybrid solution between an outdoor pack and a carry-on size travel pack. I was able to fit a decent amount of equipment, electronics, clothes, and travel gear in this bag, and I was always surprised at how the bag seemed to infinitely expand to fit more. Even after 7 years, the bag was still going strong, but the interior liner began to delaminate. I sent the bag to Osprey to get it replaced under the company's incredible warranty program, and within 2 weeks I received the newest version of this pack. I have several (over 20) backpacks and am a bit of a backpack snob, and in my opinion there are very few bags in the market that come close to the Nebula in terms of striking a balance between capacity (and smart use of space), versatility, price, quality, and comfort. Pros: 1) comfort of straps, 2) mesh front and side compartments are deep and really expand the capacity of the bag in a useful way, 3) laptop compartment is structured and roomy, which makes it great for paper documents as well as multiple laptops/tablets, 4) design balances professional/travel/outdoorsy styles unlike previous versions, which seemed more outdoorsy, 5) pack can be as expanded or compressed as much as the user wants, which makes it more versatile, 6) SO many organizational pockets. Cons: 1) I'm only 5'1, so for me the size is a bit too bulky for everyday carry, 2) there are no longer attachment points on the front of the bag (except for the light attachment), which slightly limits the use of the bag in my opinion, 3) still no trolley sleeve, although the top handle can act as one if your luggage handle is the right size, 4) it's okay for the outdoors, but it's lacking features that would make it heavy duty, such as a reinforced bottom and more water resistance (it doesn't have to be waterproof, but the hydration pack hole could easily let water into the laptop compartment). I've noticed that some users don't like that if you clip the straps that secure the front shove it pocket, you can't fully access the other compartments. I personally didn't find that to be an issue, as I either just don't clip the straps or simply insert/remove contents with limited lateral space (which isn't a problem for me).

Love the bag, love the name
A great allrounder, the way osprey designed and divided the large capacity Nebula, is amazing, compact and comfortable to carry. Just what I needed.
