For the money, I think this backpack is great. I'm 6'1'' with broad shoulders and I was afraid on a lot of backpacks I was looking at that the straps would be too short. This backpack was fine, with room to spare if one was taller. Very roomy pack. The sleeping back compartment, which could be closed off, is a bit small so I just opened it up to make it continue as one large backpack. No complaints. Note, I'm not a serious backpacker/hiker. I bought it for weekend camping outings were I won't be having to hike very far to get to the site, so I can't comment on how great a pack it is for the serious hiker. Also purchased it to work as my bug-out bag.
