Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry Outlet:
"The Jansport Bivouac 49 Backpack uses Jansports ultralight Si-fused fabric to cut weight, but has a solid suspension system with an HDPE framesheet and aluminum stay."

From REI:
"With an array of deluxe features and a light-is-right attitude, JanSport®'s Bivouac proves you needn't sacrifice function for less weight. Roomy main compartment includes a hydration sleeve (bladder not included) and space enough for a night on the trail--longer for minimalist hikers. Main pouch is accessed via a drawstring opening at top or through the front panel and its U-shaped, water-resistant zipper. Large top pouch acts as an extendable, removable lid; includes key hook inside. Long, fine-meshed side pockets keep water bottles (sold separately), snacks and trail essentials easily at hand. Compression straps allow you to pull the load close to your back for increased balance and load stability. HDPE framesheet and shaped aluminum stay give the pack form and transfer the load to the hips. Dual-density shoulder straps and padded waist belt wrap the body for an adjustable, comfortable fit. Airvent Pro™ mesh along waistbelt, shoulder straps and back wicks moisture away; air channels vents excess body heat for a cool-riding pack. Glow-in-the-dark zipper pulls help you find your way to the pack in the dark. Overstock."

"Very nice lightweight pack, I have used on several trips now including a difficult hike in Dolly Sods WV. This pack is very lightweight, and has enough space for 3-5 days depending on how light you go. The straps adjust very well, and make your load comfortable to carry. I would highly recommend especially for the price."

"I bought this pack after much research into ultra-light backpacks. My knees required me to lighten my load. At 2. 5# this pack is packed with features. Load lifters and padded hip belt plus compression straps to cinch down your load.

I've used this pack on one trip so far and it is extremely comfortable with a 30-35# load."
