"I love it. Used it on three different hiking trips so far and have enjoyed it big time. Easy to pack with open front."

"Great pack for the price. Just got back from a couple weeks backpacking through Mexico and a month on the Colorado Trail. It's holding up great."

"Pretty good features for the price. I like the accessibility into the main compartment, convertible fanny pack, and good size. A little worried about the zippers and the waist belt isn’t super comfy, but it will do. This Kelty kind of like getting a Toyota Corolla, rather than a Cadillac (Osprey or Arc’Teryx)."

"Just a comment -- I highly disagree that Kelty "puts a lot of thought into their products. " Their designs are simple and inexpensive, yet durable for a good value, but are not designed all that well. It's hit or miss. For example, the "compression straps" on a Kelty Illusion go across the water bottle pockets (????), and the fly on the Teton (yeah, I know it isn't a pack) is incredibly skimpy."

"Stay away from this one. I bought mine at an REI garage sale for $45. It was return by the previous owner because the exterior side pocket zipper failed. I safety pinned it, no biggie. . . until the zipper pocket on the other side broke when I was on Rainier."

"For my son, 12, fantastic!! Carried his entire load with room to spare for a week-long jaunt in Utah. A little heavier than we would like but well worth the expense. Torso adjusted to fit me too. I like Kelty. They put a lot of thought into their products."

"I give this 4+ stars. I bought this pack for international travel--it was a toss up between this one and the Red Cloud Women's 5000. I'm 5'4, so I didn't want a pack twice as big as me. I was worried the Coyote wouldn't hold enough. Fully expanded, though, I can fit two weeks' worth of light packing in easily (fits a queen-size comforter and a couple of pillows, just to give you an idea)."
