Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"Nature is great. Until you get eaten by a bear. So next time you're on a solo trip into bear country, bring along the Bear Vault BV450 Bear Resistant Food Canister. With 440 cubic inches of space, this rugged polycarbonate container keeps up to four days worth of supplies and food out of the mouth of hungry bears. An extra-wide, tool-free opening and transparent design let you quickly find the grub you're looking for. Slip this lightweight Bear Vault canister into your pack or use the handy strap-guides to attach the BV450 to the outside of your pack and enjoy a safe trip."

From EMS:
"The Solo is a lighter, smaller bear vault for shorter hiking and camping excursions when you still need to eliminate bear-human conflict and protect personal property, food, and bears. Grizzly-proof and rainproof means this super rugged canister won't leave you stranded without food. Store anything with an odor that could attract bears: food, sunscreen, insect repellent, soap, toothpaste, and more. Transparent polycarbonate plastic material resists impacts without shattering. Innovative "snap" lid screws on and locks without requiring tools. Built-in guides keep tie down straps (not included) in place when attached directly to backpack. Holds 440 c. in. Weighs 2 lbs. 1 oz."

From REI:
"Lighter and more compact than other bear canisters, the BearVault BV450 gives solo hikers a secure way to stow their food. Durable polycarbonate construction keeps the weight light and the inner volume high. Large rainproof lid features a snapping bump/tab locking mechanism and screws on and off easily without the use of tools. Dimpled exterior keeps tie-down straps from shifting and eliminates the need for a carrying pouch. Translucent vault makes finding your meal selection easy. Container helps suppress strong odors from food, sunscreen, insect repellent, soap and toothpaste, lessening the chance of bear vs. human conflict. Hand wash in warm water with a mild dishwashing detergent. With the lid fully closed the BearVault also makes a great camp seat. This BearVault model has approval from both the Sierra Interagency Black Bear Group and Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee. Store BearVault at least 100 yards downwind of campsite, preferably in the shade to keep contents cool. ."
