Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Even though this product is not anywhere near bullet proof, for the low cost, it deserves 5 stars. Based upon the very low price, my expectations was not set high. I just really liked how the bag is set up, and my plan was to use it for local day hikes. So, I did not need high durability. I was most concerned with the comfort, judging by the thin shoulder straps. Well, I was pleasantly surprised when I got this pack. The fabric was much more robust than I figured it would be. The plastic buckles looks flimsy, so time will tell. Filling up the pack, I was very happy with all the different pockets and accesses. I hate the ruck sack design, and having to dig through to get to things. I don't understand what some reviewers are talking about when they claim that this pack is deceptively small. For a day or two in the bush, this pack holds a sufficient amount of gears for me. One day after I received it, I decided to give it a keep try-out to get an idea of how it carries. After fully filling it up and getting all the adjustments to my liking, I took it out for an hour hike into the cold 13F morning. It felt very comfortable, so my concern with the shoulder straps was abated. I will update this review, but as of right now, I am very happy with this product.
