I was sent this pack for review and testing purposes, and my initial thoughts on the pack have been pretty up and down. There are a lot of things that I really like about the pack, but there are things that I don't like. As a brand new backpacker, the negatives of this pack are something that you probably wouldn't notice. But after having several other brands on my back over the years, the suspension system on this pack lacks the ability to carry large loads, which this pack is most likely to have with the customers who will be buying it. 

Overall the pack is nice and if I only had $100 to spend on a pack so I could get all the other gear I need/want, then I'd be perfectly fine buying it. But if I could spend another $50-$75 I would find something from REI, Kelty, or Mountainsmith and get a better suspension system.
