Kelty TC 1.0 Transit Child Carrier Pack

Cons:
No accessable pockets, Not adjustable enough
Best Uses:
Baby carrying, Hiking
Describe Yourself:
Practical
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
I needed a baby carrier backpack to use on day hikes and around town and so far this pack is working out pretty well. I find it a little difficult to get on and off unless I use a bench, but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it. It works great when my husband and I are together, but if I'm alone, I can't get into any of the pockets without taking the pack (and baby) off my back. That means if I'm using it around town, I have to find a way to carry my wallet/phone. I'd like it better if there were at least a pocket or two on the straps/hip belt to hold a cell phone or small wallet. The baby likes the pack and seems comfortable in it. My only concern on his part is that he'll reach the 30 lb (baby + gear) weight limit too fast! I didn't think the zip-off diaper bag feature was going to be useful, but I've already used it several times.

Comments:
Judging by the other great reviews this tent has received I think I must have been unlucky and got a bad tent. [...] I then did a test erect in the back garden and caught a good shower that night. I'm glad I was snug in my own bed for the test run because the next morning the tent contained a giant puddle.I also found the rain flaps around the door a bit of a nuisance as they would get caught in the zip unless you really paid attention, and I think the rain fly was a little skimpy.Also, as it's a close out it's impossible to find the matching footprint anymore so be prepared with homemade tarps cut to shape if you are a footprint advocate.On the plus side I think I would have considered swapping it for another Rio Grande 6 if I'd had enough of a time frame to accomplish this before I was due to take the family camping. It was really easy for one person to erect and strike down. Fairly lightweight for a car camping tent and seemed to be a good size for my family of two adults, toddler, baby and dog. The big windows and ventilation seemed great. One star rating from me because really, it's a tent and when it comes down to it the main purpose is to keep you dry and sheltered, and it failed.

Great pack for hiking/daytrips. Water bladder fits in easily, not like in some backpacks I've had. Side pockets are great for storing random things while hiking. You can fit a lot of stuff inside this bag. Comfortable, feels great to wear. Can't wait to go hiking with it again.

Kelty Rio 6 Grande Tent
 
Don't buy it if it might rain
By Mike from Little Rock, Arkansas on 06/15/2009
Pros:
Easy To Set Up, Sturdy
Cons:
Poor Fly Design
Describe Yourself:
Avid Adventurer
What Is Your Gear Style:
Comfort Driven
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Bought the tent for family camping, read several reviews saying that it was a great tent and no prep required prior to use. The weather condition for my trip were as follows; light to medium rain for 10 hours and wind 5-10 mph. 4 hours into the storm the tent started to leak a little, I usually expect a seam of two to leak on a new tent. However, after returning from a two hike we found that a pool had built up in the floor of the tent and every seam on the tent and rain fly was not just leaking but letting water pour in. The only positives for the tent were the ease of set up for a tent that size and the outstanding ventalation, which was a life saver on the first night of our 4 night campout when it was 80 degrees and humid at night.

Door zippers got stuck

Comments:
The Kelty Rio 6 Grande was prefect for the two adults, two giggly 12 yr old girls, one lap dog, and all of our clothing. Privacy was good. During the 45-deg nights of Northern Wisconsin we wondered how effective the ceiling ventilation system would be during more normal summer temperatures. Two teen aged boys slept in the Kelty Merced 6 with a medium size dog, it's kennel, and all of their clothing. They had room to spare. Our Keltys have been a great addition to our camping family. We hope to use them again soon.

This pack is overall a good buy for the money. However, I tried a very similar one on at another store before I bought this one to make sure it would fit. When I got mine, it was too big and gapped under the shoulder straps. I ended up returning it.
