This pack is affordable, easy to use, and comfortable for hikers who are taller than 5-foot-8. The hydration system holds more than enough water (2.5 liters) for a hike of three to four hours.

. from osprey 20 or so years after the original cake out I’d expect a lot better. Issue one is it’s a pain to refill with the slide and fold reservoir system. It does cut down on weight and size but I much prefer the cap systems out there

 Number two issue issue magnet on the hose only hooks into the chest strap—which unlike other packs is not symmetrical but only adjusts on the magnet side so if you need more size it goes far left and doesn’t hold the hose. Huge bummer for those of us with bigger chests. Wish the magnet was movable or the straps were switched. Kind of a dumb design

 Suspension and air flow back work great. The real problem is mine leaks from somewhere. I’ve gone over it twice and can’t find the leak.

Meh design choices, faulty bladder

 It has a plastic piece on top that slides off. It's a little cumbersome and not as secure as the old screw lid style. I preferred that but we'll see how this one holds up- no leaks so far. Also, the bite valve has a strange magnetic attachment on it

 I preferred that but we'll see how this one holds up- no leaks so far. Also, the bite valve has a strange magnetic attachment on it. This seemed like a great feature but then I realized you can't clip it anywhere like the olf clip style. You have only one point to attach it

Great Bag, Don't Like the new Resevoir

 If I want to or things a lot of things, I want to be able to access right away rather than having to dig into the big big pouch. It'S perfect for that, and I tend to have a lot of good experiences with that top pouch and it holds it amount of food. I'Ve been able to store a good amount of bars in there enough for at least one day, I wouldn't care for a multi-day trip, but it's an 18 liter pack, your kindness for a multi-day kit trip, as some people have a smooth. So my previous backpack trips backpack reviews, then no

 So I bought this as a smaller backpack. I wanted something that I could carry less in and not be tempted to carry more in. I have about a thirty liter, elevating continental backpack and, quite frankly, I tended to carry too much in it. So I wanted something I could carry lesson, so this ended up footing the bill and it fit perfectly on me this backpack one of the things I like about it is the pack has a lot of this mesh on the back of it that breathes really

 That'S what I tend to do from the back. As I said, hydration bladder - I'm not gon na get into this one too much, and that's what I'm going to talk about a little bit more, but it can hold up to a 2.5 liter hydration bladder, my big problem with this and the one of the reasons Why I stopped bringing it it's not that comfortable! It is hard on the back board. There would be a hydration bladder, but I found when you had a full hydration bladder on the back

5 liter hydration bladder, my big problem with this and the one of the reasons Why I stopped bringing it it's not that comfortable! It is hard on the back board. There would be a hydration bladder, but I found when you had a full hydration bladder on the back. It tended to bulge on to you more than the stuff inside, especially if you were carrying a decent amount, so one of the issues was it just didn't fit well and that's with it being as as sold there. I could do some aftermarket stuff to this

Osprey Skarab 18 Backpack Review

 A simple sliding plastic closure makes it quick and efficient to open. This integrated pour shield plastic handle. Is there for you to grab onto in order to easily hold the reservoir. When you refill antimicrobial treatment on the inside helps prevent any nasty stuff from growing something

The Osprey scare of eighteen is a nifty little hydration pack for the weekend warrior it's simple, comfortable and includes a hydration reservoir, followed a super, attractive price. This is a great pack for the hiker, who might only get out a few times a month wants to keep it light and doesn't need too many bells and whistles. The scarab gives you everything you need to stay on the trail for a solid day of hiking. The pack sits comfortably because of the built in foam frame sheet no heavy framing here, but that sheet will give you enough stability to handle enough gear for the day's adventure to stow your gear

What we like: Versatility, thoughtful design (with lots of mesh pockets and cubbies), carrying comfort, and ample capacity make this the go-to bag wherever you’re going.

What we don't like: It might not fit under the seat if you fill it to capacity.

Patagonia is known for its durable material, and this is certainly the case with the Black Hole MLC. The fabric comes from their extremely durable line of expedition duffel bags &mdash; with which we are intimately familiar and infinitely impressed. Not only is this bag durable, but it is well organized and has enough features to be useful for a variety of travel adventures. The characteristic we are most impressed with is its packability. The soft body and clamshell style allows for ultimate stuffing potential, and the mesh dividers provide full visibility into each compartment when the bag is open. 
If we have to get nit-picky, we would note that the shoulder straps are not the most comfortable for a hefty load or long-distance travel. Due to its lack of structure, the bag also tends to feel lumpy if not loaded intentionally. We found that this was a non-issue as long as you put your softer clothing closer to the back panel to avoid anything protruding while using it as a backpack. Otherwise, there is little to complain about regarding the MLC and its excellent construction.

 The bigger version of the bag is 40 liters. Mlc stands for maximum legal carry-on and that one's closer to the carry-on limits this is actually going to fit within the personal item requirements for a lot of airlines. Even regional planes, so if you're taking a short trip - and you only need a small bag, this is the perfect bag to bring you get your laptop in there. You get your clothes any other gear that you need and you don't have to pay extra for carry-on or to check a bag

 So i really liked that feature getting into the final compartment. The final compartment is basically a padded laptop sleeve fits most 15-inch laptops, but the benefit of it is that it opens all the way up. So the laptop goes here and you can even clip it into place, but when you are going through airport security, if you open the bag like this, you can just put it on the conveyor like this and send it through security. Like that, you don't have to take the laptop out and put it in a tray and then put the bag on and put the tray on

 Let'S talk about the different ways to carry the bag. There'S three different ways to carry the bag. My preferred method is using the padded backpack straps, there's daisy chain on the backpack straps. There'S also anchor points on here and then, when you're, not in use, you can put them away in this zippered compartment up top here and you can tuck

 You have all two other mesh pockets here with zippers. Just gives you the opportunity to kind of keep things a little bit more organized rather than kind of sifting through a big duffel bag, and i always found that beneficial and again, like i mentioned you, don't typically see that on bags of this size. So i really liked that feature getting into the final compartment.

Patagonia Mini MLC review

 Patagonia'S website says it's the same: iconic design as our classic mlc bag. It'S smaller and made with 100 post consumer recycled black hole material. It'S a soft sided suitcase that converts to a backpack and it meets strict carry-on requirements. So, what's it like to use in short, excellent, let's start with the good first is capacity

 While the packing cubes do work, they add unnecessary bulk and create some dead space between the cubes if they don't fit perfectly into the bag. The mini mlc's built-in mesh packing cubes, eliminate that problem and allow the capacity to carry more than you think sure there are benefits to packing cubes like being able to remove and wash them, but i personally prefer the mesh dividers in the mini mlc. If i had to pick one, the fully open laptop compartment is a great feature: that's slowly appearing on more and more bags on the market, it's advertised as a tsa friendly feature being able to open it fully for security, and that's true, however, that wasn't the biggest Benefit i found for me. The main advantage of this sleeve was how much easier it made packing the laptop when bags get full the main capacity bulges into the laptop pocket, making it difficult to insert the laptop from the top

 This bag is full of them. You can detach the shoulder, strap and hide. The clips can stow the backpack, strap and hide those clips as well [, Music ]. You can use the luggage pass-through as a pocket if needed

The computer gets caught on the bulge and doesn't fit right. I found that the mini mlc solves that problem by first securing the laptop with the sleeve open

Patagonia Black Hole Mini MLC 26L Review - 7 Likes & Dislikes

Although it looks like it could solve many of my problems, I'm concerned about comfort since it's so tall and the straps are generally dinged in reviews. Patagonia Black Hole Mini MLC. I would get this just so, but wondering if the straps are any good.

 I think the durability is going to be really great. I also like the fabric as it will be easy to wipe clean. Also of note, it fits my pretty large laptop, something I was worried about. It is 18 inches diagonally and it fits great

so happy to have found this!

Durability: so far with approximately 50 nights on the road it has held up well no significant failures of zippers or tears in the fabric.

Size: This is an excellent personal item as it easily fits under every airline seat that I have found so far without removing that precious foot room.

Excellent Personal Item with some exceptions.
