Pros & Cons
Pros
Excellent rip off of an osprey for 1/3 the price. Has been amazing for fitting everything i need.
Including a bv500 bear can horizontally inside (at the very top). The side pockets store fairly large bottles (a 1. Liter smart water bottle, for example. Includes a hydration bladder pocket, and plenty of external straps for more equitment. I also lo... Read More
Quality hardware and great stitching. The internal frame seems very sturdy. Nothing to complain about.
Cons
The padded hip belts are not long at all. The waist buckles are impossible to remove. The strap tears apart after a year.
The mesh pockets on the pack are not large enough to hold a 1 liter soda bottle when your pack is full. The bottom sleeping bag storage is roomy however if you unzip it with the rest of the pack loaded it will not zip back up around the 90 degree turn... Read More
Highlights
Quality
It has many attachment points that are sturdy and can hold many objects.
I liked all the different pockets and it seems good quality so far.
The right strap that secures the backpack broke free of the stitching as soon as we arrived.
Cheaply made but sufficient for general travel
Price
Overall a great value for a big bag that is good for tall people.
Now i want to go camping and hiking again i would buy this again especially at this price.
Nonetheless, it was a great buy great price.
However for the price, these are all things i can over look for short 2 to 3 day backpacking.
Shipping
Used this backpack on my three month backspacing trip in southeast asia and it was amazing!
Just wish shipping wasn’t so slow with amazon been weeks lately for anything
Made it though a two week trip to south africa…great pack!
Packaging/appearance
This is a photo from kala patthar with the pack in the lower right.
It was a great pack, but i wasn't packing anymore and sold it after only using it a couple times.
Note: if you cant find the rain cover turn the pack upside down zipper on the very bottom of pack, took a while to find it
Competitiveness
Other packs will fit a little better and hold up to more abuse, but will be 2-3x more expensive.

It has plenty of space for everything needed but was too compartmentalized for my needs

Lots of individual pockets was both a selling point and a frustration after purchase

Also the adjustable shoulder straps slip off the padding sometimes so adding a plastic grommet or similar to prevent that would be nice

Not sure if any others at this price point are as good since i haven’t tested any but i have taken this pack on several 20 mile two to three night trips a 40 mile week long trip overloaded it on some of my early trips unfortunately i can speak from experience that it can handle 55lbs or so i’ve since lowered my pack weight to average around 35 with food and water
