This is an amazing quality backpack for the price. We got our kid a Tarn-18 from REI 3 years ago when he started school. The mesh water bottle holders are completely ripped, and there are small holes in the nylon backpack itself that I've been patching for 2 years. I'm telling you based on the feel of this pack, NOTHING will be ripping through this for quite a while, if ever. The water bottle holders are a thick nylon, not mesh. So my kid can fill those pockets with all the rocks and sticks he wants and I'm confident I won't need to patch them after a year of use. Great purchase!As a short woman, finding the right size backpack that wouldn’t make me feel crashed is hard. This size fits me perfectly.My 7 year old son loves this backpack. But it showed up in a plastic sleeve that was see through and a simple slide zipper open. So easy to steal. Do better!Much better quality than expected. Really pleasantly surprised and I will probably buy another oneThis backpack is sturdy, and we got it for hiking for almost 8 year old daughter. It's still a little bit big but she'll grow into it quick. Love all the pockets, whistle, sturdiness, but it is a bit heavy. It looks like it'll survive many years though!Great backpack for a kid. Just right for some folders and a change of clothes, and of course enough room for some toys. If this came adult sized, I would get one for myself. Also, the chest strap is great for kids too!Great for young kids! My 5 yo uses it everyday for school. He loves all the zippersNot sturdy, looks cheapSuper bien el productoRobust and roomy. Happy child, happy Mum!
