Perfect Travel/Weekend Pack
By Karl513
I took this backpack to the deserts of Arizona, right on Lake Mead, from Cincinnati, Ohio, for a exploration trip. I am a exploration biologist, hiker, camper, and backpacker, and I am very impressed with this product. I had everything for a 5 day field trip, except for my tent and more spectacular field gear, in this pack, and I employed this as my carry-on luggage on the plane. It would be an understatement to say that I had this thing overstuffed. It still fit fine in the overhead storage on the larger planes--smaller planes checked it upon boarding. This pack's performance more than exceeded my expectations--I badly expected it to bust given how much I'd put in it, and that it was being thrown around by airport staff for the duration of layovers and connections involving littler aircraft. The thing never budged, not one seam, zipper, or buckle broke on the whole trip! The stitching is very lasting and trustworthy.
I found the design to be very commodious for my usage: panel-load main-compartment made for easy access to my belongings, internal compartment is huge, divider zips out to open up the bottom compartment to make it even more prominent (I was capable to fit my Texsport Cold Creek 0 deg sleeping bag down inside this pack when rolled up and completely compressed to ~14x12x12 or so), the compression straps around the bag actually fetch the load close to your body and take the pressure off of the main-compartment's zipper, top handle strap is very durable, rain cover is without apparent effort accessible while pack is on your back, distress whistle is loud, shoulder straps and waist belt are very comfortable and adaptable (the compression straps on the shoulders and waist likewise help fetch the load closer to your body/balance the load), the internal frame is sturdy, there are a large total of places to strap things on the outside of it, I even strapped a littler day-pack to it upside-down using the external helmet compartment thing or whatsoever that is (like I said, I actually had this thing loaded down), and it was still comfortable on my back while standing in line at the airport. I'm when it comes to 5'11'' and I noticed someone else mention that this pack wouldn't be suitable for people over 6'2''; I disagree--I think it's likely contingent upon how much weight you have in the bag, which is why I like the adaptable sternum strap and lumbar support. That said, 6'6'' is probably pushing the limits of it is adaptable range. The zipper on the bottom-compartment is, as others have mentioned, very difficult to operate when the bottom-compartment is less than full--if the bottom compartment is stuffed full the zipper on it works a little better--this whole issue would be solved if the material around the bottom compartment's zipper were not some type of elastic drawstring. This is an ominous design flaw, and my only complaint regarding this product.
In sum, I've only employed this pack once so far, but I feel it was a exhaustive test of it is capabilities. It's an awesomely versatile and commodious pack, it's confortable, and it will be taking the place of my more spectacular top-loading backback when I go backpacking and camping, as well as for international trips. I remunerated $55 + tax and shipping for this pack, and there's no way you may beat the quality of this pack for that price.

Excellent medium obligation bag
By D. Kies
This is a big backpack style bag, but with an internal frame and light-duty trail suspension features. I've searched for a pack like this for years now (I antecedently had a knock-off north face that I purchased in Vietnam), and haven't been competent to find one, except for the $250-300 ones (I believe Osprey and Northface each have an highpriced model). This bag answers the call, as it's under $100, well constructed, well engineered, and exceedingly functional.
