Amazon Basics Internal Frame Hiking Backpack with Rainfly

READ THIS BEFORE BUYING: This is an okay pack for the money, but if you're looking for good quality, look elsewhere. You get what you pay for. This is not well designed for long treks with a heavy load. I just did a 50 lb load over 26 miles of desert, and I noticed a few things. You cannot distribute weight well, but most importantly, the straps in the bottom on the front suck. There are no teeth that the straps feed through, so it's constantly loosening and it's so annoying. I was able to tie a knot to kind of fix it. Also, with the heavy load, your shoulder straps will loosen a lot over time. So my verdict: if you're going for heavy over long distance, don't buy this.

Having grown up using an ALICE pack in the infantry I was not very pleased with this pack. This would make a great hike in set up and hike out pack, but I would not recommend it for extended/rugged backpacking. I took it on a 40 mile canyon tip in Utah and I have some complaints.1. The cup holder nets on the sides are already torn up from climbing and general use. (I'd recommend matching the fabric the rest of the pack is made out of rather than netting and making them slightly larger, barely fit a 32oz water bottle in/under the pouch above)2. The stitching on the top and bottom sinch points are not sturdy, I already have fraying and stitches coming loose from attaching a tent/sleeping pad.3. The shoulder strap adjusters do not hold the straps in place with a 55lb load in the pack. I had to keep tightening them down while walking.4. Like other reviewers have said the sleeping bag section in the bottom is barely big enough for a standard size 30 degree sleeping bag. Forget putting your sleeping bag in a stuff-sack then putting it in the bottom compartment, you have to stuff it in then force it to zip.Overall it will get the job done. But, your shoulders will hurt and you will wish you bought a better bag.

I'm a pretty experienced backpacker, needed a pack with a big capacity for waders and cold weather gear during a once/year basecamp/fishing trip. A lot of other reviews noted problems with straps staying adjusted - but I never even got to carry the pack. While packing it the first time, the upper compartment drawstring closure seams tore right out of the pack during a pretty weak tug, leaving no way to cinch the top of the pack closed.Though I got 75L size, it just doesn't feel like it has much more capacity than my 60L, so consider that in your sizing if you chose to buy it. If you were to pack out the top (that ripped out as I noted above) fully to use the advertised 75L, the top closure would not cover the load.I liked the included rain cover, and the pack has more external load and compression straps that you could possibly ever use. Would have made some concessions on performance and quality since I only intended to hike 3 mi in and 3 mi out once a year and it was so affordable, but it just did not live up to even my modest expectations.

All of the reviews commenting on strap slippage are 100% accurate. This pack is useless for even basic backpacking and hiking. Take a long step, the straps slip, have a hard footfall, the straps slip, adjust a strap, the other slips. I've used it on four hikes lugging 40lbs between 2 and 4 miles and each was a nightmare of constant adjustment and re-adjustment. I researched different techniques on sizing and fitting packs employing a variety of different methods and NONE WORKED.NOWIf you're looking for something basic for travel, you're not looking to weigh this thing down; maybe toss no more that a week's clothes into, it would likely be good for that. Anything else, look elsewhere

Overall, one use, and think that this is the best pack at this price pointPROS:cost, many thoughtful pockets; clearly has little touches that involved thought to put together (and even more surprising at this prices); able to keep sleeping bag and a stuff sack for liner in the sleeping bag compartment; waterproof tarp came in handy in snow; zippers worked reliably; like that it's all black;CONS:the shoulder slaps always slacken if doing heavy backpacking suddenly given they are positioned against chest, so I'm always unable to get optimal chest fit (or else I have to straighten them out every minute or every hard step I take). if bottle holder were a touch bigger might have been more handy

Das Produkt ist gut gemacht und weißt auch alle Taschen und Gurte eines guten Wanderrucksack auf .Wie zb kann man durch das Schlafsackfach von unten an das große Staufach ran.Das Staufach ist schön groß und es gibt mehrere kleine Taschen .Jetzt zum negativen was mich dazu bewegt hat diesen Rucksack schlecht zu Bewerten .Leute kauft ihn euch nicht . Der Rucksack weist einen massiven Materialmangel auf der die Wanderung/Campen total versauen kann.Die Größen Verstellung ist quasi eine Schlaufe,wenn der Rucksack bepackt ist rutscht er in der Schlaufe hin und her. Dabei erzeugt er ein lautes quietschen. Dann ist vorbei mit Natur genießen oder ihr werdet zur lachnummer auf dem Campingplatz .Resonanz Amazon hat an sich einen hervorragenden Rucksack mit einem Materialfehler geliefert.

Ecco i difetti riscontrati per la versione 75L- Tutte le cinghie (quelle delle spalline in particolare) sono come scivolose, quasi oleose, e si allentano facilmente anche con carichi minimi (come un materassino).- Lo schienale è regolabile ma il velcro è di almeno tre centimetri più stretto dell'alloggiamento per cui le spalline si muovono orizzontalmente abbastanza da far notare lo sbilanciamento del peso sullo zaino. Ergonomicamente non penso sia accettabile.- I cordini delle cerniere non sono fusi e rischiano di sfilacciarsi facilmente. Tutte le chiusure non sono nemmeno a incastro e i due pezzi di plastica che li compongono si separano molto facilmente, è un miracolo non averne perso nessuno.- Il "telaio" è in realtà un pannello di plastica inserito in un'intercapedine lungo lo schienale, ma la cui cerniera di accesso è più stretta del pannello. Il pannello va quindi "piegato" per essere rimosso (per esempio per lavare lo zaino) e dopo una sola rimozione già perdeva la forma, il che mi fa dubitare fortemente della sua durabilità.- Attaccate al pannello di plastica ci sono due barre di alluminio rimuovibili alloggiate in tasche di tessuto apribili solo da un lato. Le barre sono coperte alle estremità da tappini di plastica che però non sono incollati per cui all'atto della rimozione quello in fondo alla tasca si sfila e rimane sul fondo.- Al contrario di quanto scritto in una delle domande, non era presente alcuna tasca per cellulare sulle cinghie laterali.Al contrario di molti altri prodotti Amazonbasics (essenziali, ma ben pensati ed economici), questo prodotto si è rivelato troppo acerbo e disattento a dettagli importanti, soprattutto alla luce di concorrenti come Quechua che a prezzi addirittura minori offre prodotti equivalenti e più attenti ai particolari. È un peccato per uno zaino dai materiali e cuciture apparentemente durevoli e dalle cerniere heavy duty che sembravano in sè solide (cordini a parte)

Tried this out for the first time backcountry camping in Kananaskis, Alberta. While the bag is advertised as 75L, I feel like this space applies to every single pocket on the inside/outside. I can't say the description is deceiving but I thought the inner compartment would be much bigger. I do like how the lower sleeping bag compartment can be separate as its own compartment or opened up as one big compartment that connects to the top. In the 2 inner compartments, I was able to fit the following:- sleeping bag packed to the size of a standard 590ml bottle- packable cot roughly the size of a football- packable camp chair which is slightly longer than a football- coleman single burner stove- packable cookware roughly the size of a small pot- a 6x10" packing cube with clothes- rainsuitThe backpack was stuffed and could not fit anymore gear inside. This does not include all the small pockets on the top and the sides. My wife was carrying the food but I guess I could have stuffed it on the outside pockets. I hope this gives people a better idea of what can be stored inside.On the outside, there are tons of loops (or molle system) that you can attach flashlights, and other random accessories. I used the outside straps to attach my 3-person tent and tarp. I can just barely fit a coleman propane tank in one of the outside side pockets.The straps are what I had the most problems with. Please have an experienced backpacker review your strap positions. When I first carried the 45-50lb backpack for 1 km, I was complaining it was very uncomfortable as all the weight was on my shoulder. If you've experienced a similar issue, you're carrying your backpack wrong. When I had my friend adjust the height of the lumber pad and tighten up the straps, this helped initially but what makes the biggest difference is adjusting your waist strap so it is tight against your waist. The majority of the backpack weight should sit on your waist so there is practically no weight on your shoulders. It made the biggest difference especially when we had to hike in 15 kms to our campsite. My gripe with the straps is that occasionally they would become loose when walking. Every km or so, I would need to re-tighten them because they have slipped out of place. I don't know if it's because my pack was too heavy but this is my main concern.Aside from the strap, I honestly couldn't complain for a pack that costs 1/4 of most brand-name packs. Ergonomics all comes down to sizing to your needs. Build quality is good and should last for many trips outdoors. It's best to have someone assess the way you carry your pack and you would be so happy to know you can use that extra cash you saved on other gear!

Ich habe den Rucksack nicht für Trekking Touren, sondern Wochenendtrips gekauft, da ich mit Unterarmgehilfen laufen muss. Positiv ist, dass der Bauchgurt bis zu einem Umfang von 150cm getragen werden kann. Leider fehlt dort ein Reißverschlussfach, in welches man Schlüssel, Fahrkarte, Ausweis und ein paar Münzen verstauen kann. Die Schultergurte lassen sich höhenverstellen.Bei Ankunft sah der Rucksack recht robust aus, doch das sollte sich als Trugschluss erweisen. Obwohl mir ein versierter BackPack Reisender die Gurte auf meine 159cm Körpergröße eingestellt hatte, lösten sie sich nach wenigen Metern laufen, sodass ich ständig nachziehen musste. Das ist an sich schon nervig, aber wenn man Unterarmgehilfen braucht besonders ärgerlich.Ich hatte den Rucksack für den Wochenendtrip mit 1 Jeans, 3 T-Shirt, Unterwäsche, Socken für 3 Tage sowie Waschzeug und 2 Handtüchern gepackt. Insgesamt ein Gewicht von 15 Kilo. Auf eine gleichmäßige Verteilung hatte ich geachtet. Dennoch riss bereits bei der ersten Nutzung der rechte Schultergurt auf einer Länge von 20 cm auf. Wenn einem das bei einer 2-wöchigen Tour durch Asien passiert ist man aufgeschmissen.Entweder habe ich ein Montagsmodell erwischt, oder die Verarbeitung ist mangelhaft, respektive das Material von schlechter Qualität. Da es mich zudem genervt hat, dass ich alle paar Meter die Gurte justieren musste, habe ich auf eine Ersatzlieferung verzichtet und stattdessen den Kaufbetrag erstatten lassen.

I was quite sad that I had to return this, overall it is an amazing backpack.I got this knowing I would have to carry a lot of items, including heavy boots, first aid kit, and a tent and unfortunately, the straps cannot handle the weight. Every time I would put it on my back I would have to adjust the straps, just for them to extend completely when I would pick it up off the ground.This is just a minor nuisance for most, but when you have to do this every single time on a journey where you know you will put your bag on the ground on multiple occasions is incredibly irritating and it just wasn't working for me.If it weren't for the straps I would recommend this to everyone. The bag has multiple pockets and sections that are easy to get to and the clasps are in good positions so it all stays secure. The biggest compartment in the middle has 2 drawstrings to make sure it is closed off completely.Underneath the big compartment is a smaller one I used for my boots, it is completely separate from the big compartment so even if you put dirty boots in there everything in your main compartment will stay clean. The top also has 2 compartments, one with a zipper on the inside which you can't reach once you closed the bag completely (which is actually quite large), and one on the outside with a zipper on the back where you can store items you will need to get out regularly.And of course, the 2 side compartments which can hold a lot of items, I managed to get a mosquito net, sunscreen as well as bug spray into a single one.Again if it weren't for the straps I would really recommend this, sadly they were a big dealbreaker for me. Just something you should keep in mind if you consider buying this.
