By Waiting to use from grand rapids mi on 10/29/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Easy To Load, Good Padding, Highly Adjustable, Lightweight Best Uses: Day Hikes, Light Loads, Travel Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Will be using this in two weeks as a carry on luggage. Like the backpack concept. A bonus was discovering that it also has a shoulder strap and handle on the side, so you can carry it like a suitcase. Several compartments. Color is stylish.
Okay pack, but room for improvement By Rusty from San Francisco, CA on 10/23/2009 Pros: Easy To Load, Large Capacity Cons: Potential for zipper fail, Suspension system Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Bought this for an international vacation and am reasonably happy with it. It has good capacity, is easy to load, unload, and has enough pockets to keep gear organized. Fabric appears to be nice and durable, it's got plenty of space, and I'm happy to see big durable zippers. That said, I'm lukewarm on the suspension system - while the waistbelt is comfortable and sturdy, the pack as a whole has tendency to sag and carries like a laundry bag. But I think this may be typical for travel packs of this sort (vs trail packs); it's not a problem unless you're planning on hiking for long distances. Also, converting the pack from suitcase mode to backpack mode takes a while and involves a lot of buckles; seems like it could be simpler. Finally, the main compartment zipper falls right along the edge at the top of the pack - over time, this could cause more wear here and be a potential point of failure. Overall, it's a decent travel pack. Maybe not the best, but good enough for the price.
