Comments about PacSafe 55 Security Web - Small:
I bought this "wire net" to protect my laptop in my backpack when I leave it behind in my hotel room (my passport/credit cards/cash I take with me in a money belt). It completely wraps my bag, and protects anything left in the pockets giving me peace of mind when I am out exploring. Two downsides:
1) It comes with a keyed lock. I don't want to keep track of keys (or lose them) when I am traveling so I replaced it with a combination lock.
2) It is a little bit heavy. I am an ultra-light traveller, and I don't usually bring something along of this weight. Still, for the peace of mind it gives me, it is worth it in my opinion.

Comments about PacSafe 55 Security Web - Small:
First of all, I was very impressed at how intuitive this product is to use. And, as it unfolds and packs up very quickly, I was happy to find that I have been highly motivated to use it -- an issue that I had been concerned about before I bought the product about one month ago.
Best of all, I felt I was able to totally relax for the first time in quite awhile during a recent train trip, knowing my laptop and, sometimes, digital SLR/lenses were secure in my daypack while I wandered about the train or went to sleep. Ditto for when I stayed in a couple of hotels. Until now, I hadn't realized how much energy I had been wasting, worrying about whether someone was going to walk off with my stuff. I would actually port my laptop around all day while on vacation because of this fear. No more! I wish I had known about this product earlier.
This PacSafe will definitely come in handy during upcoming stays in budget lodgings, which won't often offer safes either in the room or at the front desk.
I did replace the accompanying keyed padlocks with a combination padlock, though, as I hate fumbling with keys.

I bought this for an upcoming trip to Costa Rica after seeing some travelers at an airport put in on their checked backpacks. It fit my rolling bag/packpack perfectly and was so easy to use. I want it mostly for security when I'm away from my room or bag. A frequent friend/traveler said he won't leave home without it.
