needed kit for emergency use By B from Carmichael , Ca. on 05/20/2009 Best Uses: Emergency Preparedness, Keep In The Trunk, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: CPR Trained Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By Steve from Neenah WI on 04/30/2009 Pros: Easy To Use, Effective, Promotes Healing, Safe Best Uses: Emergency Preparedness, Keep In The Trunk, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: Medical Professional Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Overall it's a decent kit. Yes, most of the meds were expired, but that shouldn't be too surprising. I augmented the kit with additional wound care items (additional obs sites, steri-strips, etc) and a Sam splint would be very nice. But the price is good considering everything that is included and it's convenient for a base camp, car, boat, etc
By Andy the Prepared Man from Spokane, WA on 04/13/2009 Pros: Easy To Use, Effective Best Uses: Emergency Preparedness, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: CPR Trained, Novice First Aid Skills, Parent Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought this kit to be used for backpacking with my family and as an emergency first aid kit for a 72 hour kit. I probably could have gathered together all the items in the kit. However, my time is precious and this kit saves me time, as well as money. I have started to read the marine medicene book that is included in the kit. It is not complicated and straight forward. If I was buying this kit, I wouldn't get hung up on the fact that it is a "marine" kit. All the same skills apply when dealing with emergency medicene. The only difference is that there is some specific "marine" related advice when dealing with emergencies at sea or in large bodies of water. It builds on the basic first aid skills that I learned as a Boy Scout with easy to follow diagrams and real world emergency first aid advice. I feel prepared having it and know that I'll have confidence if I have to use it.
Everything you forget to think of! By KM from Michigan on 04/07/2009 Best Uses: Emergency Preparedness, Keep In The Medicine Cabinet, Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: Medical Professional, Novice First Aid Skills, Parent Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By YakMan from NW Montana on 03/11/2009 Best Uses: Emergency Preparedness Describe Yourself: Wilderness First Respondr Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Kit is advertised by Sierra Trading Post to contain SAM splints, it does not. Kit is advertised as waterproof, items are simply stuffed into ziplocks. Returned kit as defective due to lack of SAM splints, Sierra deducted freight both ways. Even at a discounted price you cound go to the local pharmacy for supplies and the grocery for ziplocks and be ahead.
By Norman, The Retired Cop from Midlothian, Virginia 23113 on 01/30/2009 Pros: Easy To Use, Effective, Promotes Healing, Safe Best Uses: Emergency Preparedness, Keep In The Medicine Cabinet, Keep In The Trunk, Long Term Use, Outdoor Activities, Quick Fix Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: It is a nice emergency kit and the sell price of [$] was great since the list price was [$]. Your ad was misleading since it appeared to be a MUCH LARGER EMERGENCY BAG, however for the money, I was satisfied. You should describe the size of the item so buyers will know that it is SMALLER.
Hope I never use this ..................

By Cruising Star from Seattle on 01/04/2009 Pros: Easy To Use, Effective Best Uses: Outdoor Activities Describe Yourself: CPR Trained Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Good basic kit with wide variety of items. Skimpy on routinely used items such as analgesics and band-aids. I added hand wamrers and space blankets for hypothermia.
