I find “survival kits” to generally be “starter packs”. Most have things you’ll never need, some things you’ll certainly use, and just a few things that you might. So when I look at “survival kits”, I look at the contents, and determine how much the value of the parts compares to the cost of the kit. For this one, maybe equal, or perhaps slight value in buying this kit.- The bag is a good size and has a water resistant rubbery lining. I suppose the camo is a nice design though I typically opt for more discreet colors (i.e. black, beige…or red for emergency/medical).- The water is a nice addition, though I typically keep/rotate water bottles in my packs…with much more water….at minimum 1L per person per day and 2L if in a hot environment. The Aqua-tabs are a nice inclusion, but I’d also add a membrane water filter/straw. Especailly since one Aquatab generally treats 1-2L of water. So be sure to add at least one 1L container.- The 2400 kcal emergency food is a nice and typical inclusion. But for three days, it’s a very minimal 800 kcal supply…rather low, especially if you need to hike out. Recommend adding a few more.- The first aid kit is really just a “boo-boo” kit. I’d recommend adding some trauma items…TQ, gauze, shears, SAM splint, etc.- The poncho and mylar blanket are useful…but aren’t very durable, sure to tear with any real use.- The fire kit, cup and the stove aren’t mandatory, but are nice to have….and can be used to obtain and boil/purify water.- The compass/whistle kit and manually powered flashlight are useful inclusions for basic orienting, lighting/signaling…and whistles take less breath/energy and the sound travels farther than yelling.- I’d also be sure to include some blade (knife/axe/hatchet.).- And some sort of wireless communication suitable for your environment… CB, GMRS, HAM, sat-messenger, PLB, etc.Bottom Line:The general contents of this kit are basic inclusions, and are a good value in general, but the kit in general needs modification/supplementation to be useful in a survival or trauma situation. Basically, I’d recommend doing some research on what should be included in a survival kit for your general environment/situation….then find the kit that best include the items you need…and supplement as needed. Happy Planning!

This is a pretty cool, and pretty inclusive premade go bag. They have included quite a few items, most are fairly low quality, but would do the job.It is very inexpensive, and a great bag to have. You can go through it, and upgrade any items you wish, and add anything you also would like to take with you.they even have included some food and water in this pack. The food bars are edible, but the water has a pretty bad taste to it. It tastes like they included something to stabilize it, or the pack itself is flavoring it?? I don't know but I will not be drinking that water except in case of the worst emergencies. probably going to switch it out for Bottles.it is a great starter pack though, and gives you an idea of what type of stuff you should have. Plenty of room for any other thing else you can think of though. Great product, especially for the price, highly recommended. Very lightweight as is, be mindful of what you add, the bag can get very heavy very fast.

Good quality, good value for money, is a nice size, and it looks good. It also helps that the 72hour emergency rations come in a camo backpack. This pack is completely filled for one person for 72hrs although you could make it for 2 ppl. If done right. There’s enough space to add whatever else you want to it as well. Completeness. Portability.

This emergency pack/bugout bag is a fairly decent start, but it is only that... a start. As it comes this bag will NOT get you through 72 hours of a real survival situation! Listen to my words now... You Have To Add To This Bag!! It has some of the basic things needed, but is also missing a lot and some of the stuff is just so cheap that it likely would fail you. Now don't get me wrong, the food rations, water packets, Aquatabs, folding stove, and cup are all good stuff. The backpack itself is a pretty good pack with a lot of extra room and nice features. The rest however, is very hit and miss, with a lot of miss. For one thing it doesn't come with fuel for the stove even though it shows it in the picture and worst of all it doesn't give you any real way to start a fire. Which is crucial! That teeny tiny little flint on the orange whistle isn't going to do it, plus they don't give you a way to strike it. So it might as well not be there at all. That's just one example of where it is missing vital components. So once again listen to my words... You Will Have To Add To This Kit! One good point about this emergency kit is it's price. Most of these preassembled kits are hundreds of dollars. With this one you are getting a good pack and some decent basic stuff to build on for only $60, and that ain't bad at all. As long as you understand that this kit alone absolutely will not get you through 72 hours (maybe a very miserable 24 hours), and as long as you understand that you will have to add to it, then I definitely would recommend it. It's not a bad start at all.
