Review on Everest Hiking Pack Black Size: Durable and Spacious Outdoor Backpack by Lakshmi Pennington

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Holds a lot, not suitable for checked baggage

If you're cheap like me, you probably buy economy class and intend to take it as hand luggage (Hello tourists). So you know how it was the last time you sat on a plane and they make you check your bag. I managed to pack 30 pounds of stuff for a 3 month trip to Mexico so I happily gave it to them. FYI, carrying 30 pounds on your back through a massive airport like Dallas or Mexico City isn't exactly fun. However, I got my bag back with a missing chest buckle and a tear in the side compartment where the book corner was sticking out. So it's not very convenient for checked baggage, but I think it could be a Tourist 101. It is made of canvas, so not light. Definitely not for hiking. But long trips, yes. Straps are strong. I plan to replace the missing buckle and continue flying with it, hopefully taking less stuff and trying to keep it as carry-on.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Sundries
