Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

All of Alaska is bear country, so having this is a good idea around here. It's not very likely that a bear will ever "test" my bear container, and it adds to my pack weight, but I don't care because I have a dry place to sit while cooking. This is a stool that happens to be a bear-container, not the other way around. You'll use it every time you camp if you're using it right. This is a chair. This holds a small mess kit (with stove) for two, with enough room for 2 days of food for 2 people. It fits perfectly in the bottom of an Osprey Atmos 65. It's tall enough to comfortably sit on, and low enough to reach the ground when you're on it. Perfect. The best part is, if you're packing it, it's YOUR chair. Nobody can take it from you; those are the rules when you carry something for miles. My dog also likes to attack it occasionally, which is funny. It's definitely dog proof. It's also worth mentioning that having a bear-container is "hard core", and earns the respect of novice outdoorspeoples. If you also brought a hatchet and wore a vest, I don't think anyone would question your decisions. You'd be like Burt Reynolds in the first half of Deliverance.
