Why Targus earned a C-
About Targus
Laptop bags and docking stations that show up in office supply closets everywhere — Targus has been making the unglamorous stuff (cases, chargers, mounts) that keeps other people's electronics protected for a long time. It's the kind of brand you don't think about until your laptop bag zipper breaks, and then you buy another Targus because the first one lasted years.
Screen protectors and privacy screens are a notable exception to their otherwise standard 30-day window — once opened, they're not eligible for return, which makes sense given they're single-use adhesive products. Return authorization matters more here than at most retailers: skip that step and you risk a 20% restocking fee or an outright rejected return.
What they sell
- Laptop backpacks and messenger bags
