I am absolutely satisfied with my MEC Brio 50 (long) which I got me this year. It performed great on a 10-day glacier course / tour in the Alpes (16 Kg) and on a 3-week hike in Jotunheimen/Hurrungane (15 Kg) - absolutely no cons to this pack.

Ordering the pack from the internet (never had seen it in real life before) I was critical whether a) the pack might survive airport transport and b) the back might be "too sweaty" - both turned out to be no problem at all.

5 stars for function, 5 stars for design (and it even has "coop" being sticked on it), 5 stars for the price. only extra item you need is a raincover.
